Rooting trial was carried out using ischolar_main cuttings of seven multipurpose tree species in low cost mist chamber designed and developed in Tropical Forest Research Institute, Jabalpur. Maximum ischolar_maining (84.44%) was obtained in ischolar_main cuttings of Dalbergia sissoo whereas Tectona grandis gave a very poor ischolar_maining response (10.00%). Albizia lebbek and Albizia procera, which are otherwise difficult to ischolar_main species through branch cuttings, gave 56.67% and 66.67% ischolar_maining through ischolar_main cuttings respectively. The findings of the present study highlight the importance of vegetative propagation through ischolar_main cuttings and its substantial scope in tree improvement programmes. The technique enables successful vegetative propagation through ischolar_main cuttings of multipurpose tree species including some of the difficult to ischolar_main species without the assistance of growth hormones.

The experiments were conducted at Bihar Agricultural College, Sabour, Bhagalpur (Bihar) during the two consecutive Rabi seasons of 2006-07 and 07-08 to assess the efficacy of different levels of chemical fertilizes and microbial inoculants on quality attributes of hybrid cabbage. Five levels of chemical fertilizers (F1 - N80 P40K40, F2 - N120 P60 K60, F3 - N160 P80 K80, F4 - N200 P100 K100 and F5 - N240 P120 K120) and five treatments of microbial inoculants (M1-0, M2- Azotobacter, M3-Azospirillum, M4 - VAM and M5 - PSB) were taken for investigation. Among the various fertility levels of chemical fertilizers, N240 P120 K120 gave the maximum protein, phosphorus and calcium content in head of cabbage while ascorbic acid was higher at fertility level of N80 P40 K40.The plant developed under inoculation of biofertilizer Azospirillum produced the highest protein content in head where as microbial inoculants PSB or VAM gave maximum phosphorus and calcium in head. However, the interaction effects of microbial inoculants and levels of chemical fertilizers on quality were failed to touch the level of significance.Keywords

An experiment was carried out during Rabi 2006-07 and 2007-08 at Bihar Agricultural College, Sabour to find out the effect of inorganic fertilizers and bio fertilizers on dry matter yield per plant and NPK-uptake by plant from soil. Five levels of inorganic fertilizers (F1-N80 P40K40, F2 - N120 P60K60, F3- N160 P80 K80 F4 - N200 P100 K100 and F5 - N240 P120K120) and five treatments of bio fertilizers (M1-O, M2- Azotobacter, M3 - Azospirillum, M4 - VAM and M5 - PSB) were taken. The data of two years were pooled and analysed. The results of the investigation revealed that maximum dry matter production per plant and NPK- uptake by plant from soil was obtained at fertility level of N200 P100 K100. The interaction effect of inorganic fertilizers and bio fertilizers were also found highly significant. The plant grown at fertility level of N200 P100 K100 along with application of Azospirillum as seed and seedlings treatment as well as soil application gave the highest dry matter yield per plant as well as NPK - uptake by plant from the soil.Keywords

Background: Lack of awareness about the risk factors is an important reason for delay in seeking medical care among patients with acute chest pain of cardiac origin.
Objectives: To study the prevalence and awareness of cardiovascular risk factors and its sociodemographic determinants in patients attending cardiac emergency with acute chest pain of cardiac origin of Lucknow district.
Material and Method: A Descriptive Longitudinal study was conducted in the cardiac emergency of CSMMU, a tertiary care center, following systematic random sampling technique on a sample size of 220 during study period of one year August 2010 to August 2011.Data was collected through preformed and pretested schedule and analysed using SPSS 17.0 software.
Results: It was found that distribution of cardiovascular risk factors among patients attending cardiac emergency with acute chest pain of cardiac origin of Lucknow district were as follows: tobacco use 47.3%, alcohol 17.3%, hypertension 23.2%, diabetes mellitus 32.7%, dyslipidaemia 15%, overweight 23.6%, obesity 9.1%, past history of CAD 21.4% and family history in 9.5% of the patients. The awareness of risk factor was maximum for tobacco use (70%) and least for dyslipidaemia (40.9%). The awareness was less in rural patients, females, low SES class and illiterates.
Conclusions: Public awareness campaigns to be conducted periodically to educate people about signs and symptoms of acute chest pain of cardiac origin, to create awareness about the seriousness of the problem and risk factors, as these factors were the major barriers in delay in health seeking.

The paper, describes the structure and tectonic environments of the tungsten mineralization at Chhendapathar, India's largest tungsten mining district. The main structural configuration of the district developed as a result of early, cross and later fold movements during the Singhbhum Orogeny (2000-850 m.y.). The early folding generated axial plane schistosity, whereas cross fold movements produced asymmetrical folds, and the later folding gave rise to a broad zone of culmination, that was the site of an intrusion-the source of tungsten-bearing solutions, responsible for the ore deposits. Ore controlling structures like shear-slips, shear-fractures and fault-fractures were primarily formed during the period of cross folding. On mineralization, they developed into vein patterns trending: (i) N70°E, (ii) N50°w, (iii) N70°w, (iv) N50°E, and (v) N10°E. Post-ore faults have dislocated the veins, sometimes rotating their strike by about 25°.- Iron-Manganese Ratios in Wolframites as Geologic Thermometers

Soils vary widely in their capacities to supply phosphorus (P) to crops because only a small fraction of the total P in soil is available to crops. Thus, the crop growth and yield are likely to suffer adversely unless soil is endowed with adequate native supply of plantavailable P, or else the soil receives readily available (inorganic) P fertilizers. In order to rationalize fertilizer P application to support sustained high productivity on one hand and address the environmental and economic concerns on the other, an in-depth understanding of native P supplies and P dynamics in soil is inevitable. In this context, the present article takes stock of the available information on the occurrence of P in soils, chemistry of P in soil, P quantity, intensity, and buffer capacity attributes of different soils vis-àvis the P uptake modelling, P dynamics in soil, P management in important cropping systems for enhancing its use efficiency, soil testing for plant-available P to prescribe fertilizer P application and losses of P through erosion and runoff to the water bodies leading to eutrophication.Keywords

SSRs or microsatellites are tandem repeats of 2-8nt units of DNA and are ubiquitous in all genomes studied so far. SSR markers have many advantages over the other marker systems. The first advantage is their high reproducibility, which would be the most important in genetic analysis. The second advantage of the SSR marker system is the polymorphic genetic information contents. The third advantage has to do with the co-dominant nature of SSR polymorphisms. The fourth advantage of the SSR marker system is their abundance and distribution in genomes. A fifth advantage of the SSR marker system is that SSRs are preferentially associated with non-repetitive DNA. This review focuses on some of the reasons for SSR mutations that occur due to replication or repair process which may depend on not only the motif size but also the nucleotide composition of each motif as well as orientation of repeats or position with reference to replication origin. In this review tools for SSRs available are given with their advantages and disadvantages.Keywords

The brinjal crop covers largest area and plays an important role in total vegetable production in India. Brinjal crop suffers more from fruit and shoot borer insect pest and disease attack. Due to lack of awareness of farmers, KVK scientists promoted the integrated pest management practices in district for the suppression of pests and diseases. The integrated pest management strategy involving many components was demonstrated through innovative large scale contagious technology demonstration in 20 ha brinjal (local variety) crop area during the year 2014 during Kharif season in Mau district in Uttar Pradesh, India. The various production and protection parameters indicated that adoption of IPDM strategies decreased the cost of production without affecting the yield. The IPDM demonstration, insecticides sprays quantity reduction in brinjal was 100 lit. per hectare, respectively as compared to the local check. Adoption of IPDM technology increased the net income over the local check in brinjal local varieties Rs. 2,57,500/ha. In spite of increase in yield of brinjal, technological gap, extension gap and technology index existed. The improved technology gave higher gross return, net return with higher benefit cost ratio as farmers’ practices.

Input-output data were collected from on farm trials of hybrid and open pollinated varieties of tomato grown in the research farm of Indian Institute of Vegetable Research, during 2001-02 to 2006-07. Seven determinate tomato varieties namely, CO-3, Sel-10, Punjab Chhuhara, Sel-15, DVRT-2, Sel-7, ARTH-3 and one hybrid STH-537 in one set of experiment and seven hybrids ARTH-16, ARTH-4, ARTH-128, Gotya, SC-2, BSS-40, BSS-99 and one open pollinated variety Arka Vikas in another set of experiments were grown in the Gangetic alluvial soil of Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh. The plants were grown under different levels of nutrition N @ 120, 200, 300 and 400 kg/ha, P2O5 @ 60, 80, 120 and 150 kg/ha and K @ 60, 100, 120 and 150 kg/ha in alluvial soil. A significant variation in yield and yield parameter was recorded among the tested open pollinated varieties and hybrids. The highest yield was recorded in Sel-15 (58.1 t/ha) at par to control hybrid STH-537 (56.64 t/ha) followed by open pollinated varieties Sel-10 and Punjab Chhuhara (53.5 and 51.6 t/ha, respectively). Yield of CO-3, DVRT-2, Sel-7 and ARTH-3 was ranging between 41.9 to 48.6 t/ha, indicating an increase of 2.5 to 3 times higher yield than national average of 18 t/ha. Among the tested hybrids, highest yield was recorded in BSS-99 (76 t/ha) followed by BSS-40 (71.3 t/ha) as compared to National check, Arka Vikas variety (44.1 t/ha) under staking condition. The increase in tomato yield under staking condition was remarkable for evaluated seven hybrids and one open pollinated variety. The highest cost: benefit ratio was found in BSS-99 (1:4.0) followed by BSS-40 (1:3.69) under staked condition as compared to (1:3.1) and (1:2.75) under non-staked condition. The law of diminishing return was established in yield response curve when treated with fertilizer inputs. Application of fertilizer nitrogen beyond 200 kg/ha showed a negative effect on yield and benefit: cost ratio. Interventions of fertilizer management technology recorded an additional gain of 46 q/ha in open pollinated variety and 110 q/ha yield in private sector hybrids in tomato. An increase in 33per cent factor productivity was realized under intervention of staking in 3 tier technology in indeterminate tomato hybrid. Variation in type of seed (open pollinated to hybrid) induced 17 per cent increase in factor productivity. Fertilizer management technologies on average enhanced 22 per cent factor productivity in tomato irrespective of genetic makeup.Keywords

Various thermodynamic properties viz. acoustic impedance, Z, intermolecular free length, Lr molar sound velocity, R, molar compressibility, W, and molecular association MA, have been computed for five binary liquid mixtures (Dimethylcarbonate (DMC) + methanol, DMC + cyclohexane, methanol + cyclohexane, DMC + benzene, and methanol + benzene) at 298.15 K. Interactions between the components of binary systems are studied in terms of excess acoustic impedance, ZE, excess intermolecular free length, LfE deviation in molar sound velocity, ΔR, deviation in molar compressibility, ΔW, and deviation in ultrasonic velocity, Δu. Sign and magnitude of the excess properties give an estimate of strength of the unlike interactions in a iquid mixture. Small positive values of LfE and negative values of ZE and Δu signify the existence of weak interactions between component molecules of all the binary systems. Moreover, an attempt has also been made to examine the validity of several theories and relations, viz. free length theory, Nomoto relation, Junjie relation, Van Deal & Vangeel ideal mixing relation and collision factor theory for the theoretical predictions of ultrasonic velocity in the systems under consideration.Full Text

In this study fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum) seeds of variety HM-57 were dried in solar regenerated desiccant seed dryer. In this dryer, seeds can be dried in deep bed at a safe temperature for good shelf-life, germination and vigour index. The dryer has following significance over common methods of drying, generally vegetable seeds are dried in shade, which has very low drying rate and can be harmful to the seeds. Under natural drying conditions, micro organisms may develop, as moisture takes longer to be removed. Also in natural drying seeds holds moisture for longer period than advisable, due to this there is acceleration in respiration rate which causes a C02 release and water vapour and causes a significant decrease in physiological quality of seeds. The dryer has two chambers i.e. air conditioning chamber and seed drying chamber. It operates in seed drying and desiccant regeneration mode. Moisture removal from drying air has been done using silica gel desiccant. Fenugreek were dried with hot and dehumidified air at five different drying air temperatures i.e. 3 8, 40,42,44 and 46° C and at five different air flow rates i.e., 1,1.2,1.4,1.6 and 1.8 m3/min.. Germination percentage of fenugreek seeds varied from 78 - 67% as temperature varied between 38-46° C, and vigour index varied from 1349.4 - 911.2. After this study, dryer was found to be better alternative for drying high priced vegetable seeds.Keywords

In the present study Shri Devi Bhavan Dairy farm Complex was selected for the energy auditing. It consists of three sections (i) Dairy farm, (ii) School, (iii) Temple Complex. The survey was carried out for the basic data collection regarding energy demands and resources availability in all the sections. The data was analyzed for determining total energy demand and resources availability in all sections. The survey of major activities related to use of thermal, electrical, mechanical and human energy was conducted and total energy demand and energy use pattern was also studied in this selected area. The data for energy demands and resource availability in Devi Bhavan Dairy farm Complex were collected with the help of well structured questionnaire developed for the purpose. The type of energy sources utilized in the dairy farm complex was electrical, thermal, mechanical and manual. The electrical energy was the only source of energy used in School and Temple Complex. The value of manual, electrical, thermal and mechanical energy required per month for dairy farm was 5997.6, 1509.2, 27600 and 9540 MJ/Month respectively. In case of school and temple complex demand of electrical energy per month was 2216.16 and 5715.36 MJ/Month respectively.Keywords

Pearl millet, also known as Bajra is one of the major Kharif food crops of arid and semi-arid cropping region of India. It ranks first under the category of millet in India in terms of area, production and productivity. An on-the-farm evaluation of energy inputs and output was calculated to determine the distribution of main energy sources (i.e. human, fuel, machinery, seed and fertilizer) used in pearl millet cultivation. This study was carried out at dryland farm area, C.C.S. Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar, Haryana, India. The results indicated that the total input and output energy use was 4785.52 MJ ha-1 and 29400.00 MJ ha-1, respectively. With 56 per cent, the fertilizer had the highest contribution in the energy input followed by diesel fuel (29%) and human (12%). The input-output ratio was observed to be 6.12. The share of indirect energy was found to be higher as compared to direct energy sources.Keywords
