Effect of different pulsing treatments and holding solutions on the vase life of cut spikes of the orchid, Dendrobium cv. Sonia-17 was studied. Among the pulsing treatments, pre-cooling treatment done at 150C for 12 h recorded maximum spike longevity of 32 days, maximum number of days for wilting of first floret (26 days), maximum number of days for wilting of all florets (38 days) and maximum water uptake (10 ml). In the trial using different holding solutions, AgNO3 (25 ppm) + sucrose (5%) gave maximum vase life of 35 days, maximum number of days for wilting of first flower (17.3 days) and maximum number of days for wilting of all flowers (53.7 days). Pre-cooling treatment done at 150C for 12 h and holding solutions containing AgNO3 (25 ppm) + sucrose (5%) was found to be the best treatments to enhance the vase life of cut spikes of the orchid, Dendrobium cv. SONIA-17.Keywords

Power electronics assumes an essential part in controlling the system joined renewable energy sources. This paper presents a novel changeable or inconstant neuro-fuzzy control approach for the renewable interfacing inverter. The principle target is to complete successfully smooth reactive, functioning or allowing movement in two usually opposite directions power flow and nonlinear unbalanced load compensation all the while, where the conventional proportional-integral controller may end weakly because of the quick change in the motion to a great psychological depth of nonlinear framework. The joined ability of neuro-fuzzy controller in taking care of the instabilities also, derive a benefit from the procedures is ended up being sufficiently valuable to justify the investment of time or interest while controlling the inverter under having unpredictable ups and downs working conditions. The inverter in an effective manner controlled to make payment to compensate the harmonics, reactive power, and the current imbalance of a Three-Phase Four-Wire (3P4W) nonlinear load with created renewable power injection into the grid at the same time. This give qualities or abilities to the network to continuously supply/take up mentally an adjusted arrangement of fundamental currents at unity Power factor calculate even the surrounding or near by region of the 3P4W nonlinear unbalanced load at the point of common coupling. The proposed framework is created and reenacted in MATLAB/Sim Power System environment under distinctive working conditions. The computerized sign handling and control building based lab exploratory results are additionally given to approve the proposed control approach.- Pod set and Pollen Viability Studies in Yard Long Bean (Vigna unguiculata sub sp. sesquipedalis)

A study was conducted in a yard long bean (Vigna unguiculata sup/ssp. sesquipedalis) hybrid VS 50 (Kakkamoola Local) x VS 26 (Vellayani Jyothika) to assess the percentage fruit set at two time intervals and to identify the best time interval for pollination in yard long bean hybrids. Hand pollination was done using VS 50 as female parent and VS 26 as male parent for seven consecutive days at two time intervals, 6.30 – 7.30 am and 7.30 – 8.30 am. Higher percentage of fruit set (36.8 %) was observed between 6:30 – 7:30 a.m. as compared to the time interval 7:30 – 8:30 am. (23.8%). Pollen viability was determined for the parents VS 50 (Kakkamoola Local) and VS 26 (Vellayani Jyothika) at 6.30, 7.30 and 8.30 am. Highest pollen viability for both the parents VS 50 and VS 26 was observed during 7.30 am. The present study shows that the best time interval for crossing in yard long bean is 6.30- 7.30 a.m.Keywords
