Andhra Pradesh has set a target for itself of becoming one of the top three states in India by 2022, in terms of socioeconomic
development and ease of doing business. The state aspires to achieve the status of a developed ...
Molecular phylogeny, pathogenicity and toxigenicity of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici
The present study aimed at the molecular characterization of pathogenic and non pathogenic F.
oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici strains isolated from tomato. The causal agent isolated from symptomatic
plants and soil samples ...
Resilient and efficient agro-ecosystems under changing climate and demography
The presentation held in Dharwad (India) by dr. Biradar analyses the effects of changing climate on agriculture and proposes climate- smart practices. The stresses agriculture faces are multiple, some of which include ...
Geographical distribution of traits and diversity in the world collection of pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br., synonym: Cenchrus americanus (L.) Morrone] landraces conserved at the ICRISAT genebank
The genebank at ICRISAT conserves the
largest collection of 23,092 pearl millet germplasm
accessions originating in 52 countries. A total of 15,979
landraces originating in 34 countries and having geographic
coordinates ...
Breeding Biofortified Pearl Millet Cultivars with high iron density
Harvest Plus Biofortification Program of the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGJAR) has initiated the
development and dissemination of improved crop. Cultivars with elevated levels of these ...
Spatial big-data analytics for agricultural intensification and crop diversification in rice fallows
Supply-demand gap of agricultural commodities continues to rise while total arable land area is
not expected to increase significantly in India. Future increases in agricultural production will be
contingent upon agricultural ...
Fermentation of Pretreated High-Biomass Sorghum Hydrolysates to Biohydrogen by Mixed Consortia
In the present study, hydrolysate generated
during pretreatment of high-biomass sorghum as a carbon
source for biohydrogen production was investigated. The
high-biomass sorghum bagasse (HBS) was pretreated using
acid (H2SO4) ...
Assessing village-level carbon balance due to greenhouse gas mitigation interventions using EX-ACT model
Under National Initiative on Climate Resilient
Agriculture (NICRA) project, a range of climate smart
agricultural practices were evaluated with on-farm
demonstrations during 2011–2013 in eight climatically
vulnerable ...
Capsicum annuum proteinase inhibitor ingestion negatively impacts the growth of sorghum pest Chilo partellus and promotes differential protease expression
Background: Chilo partellus is an important insect pest infesting sorghum and maize. The larvae internalize in
the stem, rendering difficulties in pest management. We investigated the effects of Capsicum annuum
proteinase ...
Integrated runoff and soil loss monitoring unit for small agricultural watersheds
Runoff and sediment flow behaviors from small agricultural watersheds on Alfisols and Vertic Inceptisols,
and their implications for the design of a runoff and soil loss monitoring unit are discussed. It was
observed that ...
