Drought stress is a serious constraint, especially in rainfed rice production, and breeding for drought tolerance by selection based on yield under stress, though effective, is slow Mapping quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for yield and its components under drought stress predominant in rainfed target populations of environment (TPE) will help overcome this limitation. In the present study, a subset of 143 F8 and F9 recombinant inbred (RI) lines derived from IR62266-42-6-2 (IR62266), a high-yielding indica ecotype and Norungan, a landrace from TPE, was used to map QTLs for yield and its components under drought predominant in TPE. A large effect yield QTL observed under drought stress in TPE was consistent across two years with a phenotypic variation of 31.3% and 37.9% and additive effect of 629.2 and 424.9 kg/ha Further, this region was fine-mapped to 94.0 kb with positive effect on grain yield under stress.Keywords

Rice is the major staple food crop for more than half of the world's population, but its productivity is often reduced by drought, especially when grown under rainfed conditions. Identification of molecular markers associated with plant production traits under drought, especially in the target populations of the environment (TPE) presents an opportunity to improve rainfed rice production using genomics tools. Marker-trait associations were studied using 1168 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and 911,153 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with 17 diverse rice lines from different geographical regions and hydrological habitats. STRUCTURE analysis discriminated the rice accessions into three subpopulations. Significant genotypic linkage disequilibrium (LD) was found in the rice accessions using SSR markers. A total of 130 and 118 water-trait associations were obtained with SSR and SNP markers respectively, under stress. Comparison of SSR and SNP marker-trait associations revealed 23 consistent associations. Five marker-trait associations with genic SNPs were observed out of 23 associations. These genomic regions may be potential candidates for application in marker-assisted breeding of rice cultivars suitable for water-limited environments.Keywords

The objective of this study is to comparatively analyse and assess the heavy metal pollution in coastal areas of Ennore and Royapuram, Tamilnadu, India. Ennore coast receives untreated/treated effluents from Manali Industrial belt, which houses many chemical Industries. Royapuram mainly receives domestic sewage. Analyses of water and mussel samples were done by ICP-AES. During summer all the dissolved heavy metals exhibited maximum values. The result shows that concentrations of copper, cadmium, zinc and lead were above the permissible limits.Keywords

Wireless communication is one of the most important technology which is contributed by manpower to the world. Using wireless we can transmit the information over a distance without the help of cables. There are more number of wireless communication to transmit data between two devices. In this paper we are going to analyze three different wireless technologies namely, Wi-Fi, Gi-Fi, and Li-Fi. Wi-fi is the better solution for that limitations. Gi-Fi stands for gigabit wireless. Gi-Fi is the world’s first transceiver integrated on a single chip that operates at 60 GHz on the CMOS process. It utilizes 5mm square chip and 1mm wide antenna burning less than 2milli watts of power to transmit data wirelessly over short distances. It allows a full-length high definition movie to be transferred between two devices in seconds. Within five year it will be the dominant technology for wireless networking. Li-Fi stands for Light-Fidelity. Li-Fi provides better bandwidth, efficiency, availability and security than Wi-Fi. Li-Fi uses visible light instead of Gigahertz radio waves for data transfer.

Malnutrition among children poses a great challenge to national development. Among the many steps taken to ameliorate malnutrition, developing acceptable high protein recipes at minimal cost is a crucial need. In recent years, cultivation of sunflower has emerged as a promising effort and sunflower meal offers new source of protein of good biological quality. Chandrasekhar and Kanjana, have reported about the potentials of sunflower in combination with maize or roasted Bengal gram flour for human dietaries. In the present investigation an attempt has been made to further enhance the nutritive value of the combination of sunflower meal, maize and roasted Bengal gram flour with sesame meal and test its efficacy in promoting growth and retaining nitrogen in school children.- Classification Algorithms with Attribute Selection:An Evaluation Study using WEKA

Attribute or feature selection plays an important role in the process of data mining. In general the dataset contains more number of attributes. But in the process of effective classification not all attributes are relevant. Attribute selection is a technique used to extract the ranking of attributes. Therefore, this paper presents a comparative evaluation study of classification algorithms before and after attribute selection using Waikato Environment for Knowledge Analysis (WEKA). The evaluation study concludes that the performance metrics of the classification algorithm, improves after performing attribute selection. This will reduce the work of processing irrelevant attributes.Keywords

The present study was aimed to evaluate the acid tolerance properties and compatibility with antibacterial antibiotics of probiotic bacterial strain Bacillus subtilis formulated with various agriculture based products like potato peel and biogel. Bacterial strain was isolated from butter milk and the isolated probiotic strain was identified based on morphological, cultural and molecular characteristics which reveals the isolated strain belong to B.subtilis and the pure culture was formulated with the respective agriculture based products under aseptic condition. Acid tolerance study was carried out by determination of growth of respective formulation under different pH levels (6.5,4.5,2.5) which shows all the tested formulation retained the maximum viability in all the tested pH under all the incubation time. Compatibility of respective formulation with antibiotics was also investigated by measuring the zone of inhibition. Growth inhibition was not recorded in the majority of the antibiotics which reveals the best compatibility of formulation with the antibiotics which would suggests the possible utilization of formulated B.subtilis as an effective probiotic strain.Keywords
