Efficient Production of Tetraploid Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) by Colchicine Treatment of Diploid Barley
An experiment was conducted to induce tetraploidy in three diploid barley varieties (Martin, Rihane and
Manel) through different colchicines treatments. Colchicine was added for three different concentrations
at three ...
Cotton leaf curl virus disease a principle cause of decline in cotton productivity in Pakistan (a mini review)
Among most serious threats of last two decades with reference to cotton crop in Pakistan is Cotton leaf Curl Virus. This disease inflicted huge losses not only to the cotton crop but also to the economy of Pakistan. It ...
Diversity in Betasatellites Associated with Cotton Leaf Curl Disease During Source-To-Sink Movement Through a Resistant Host
Cotton leaf curl is devastating disease of cotton characterized by leaf curling, vein darkening and enations. The disease symptoms are induced by DNA satellite known as Cotton leaf curl Multan betasatellite (CLCuMuB), ...
Estimation of genetic variability for Cotton leaf curl virus disease, fiber quality and some morphological traits using multivariate analysis in exotic Gossypium (Diploid and tetraploid) species
This study was designed to evaluate the germplasm imported from USA for cotton leaf curl virus, fiber quality and yield components. Seventy nine cotton genotypes were evaluated using statistical procedures such as correlation ...
First Report of Chilli leaf curl virus and Associated Alpha- and Beta-satellite DNAs Infecting Nettle Weed (Urtica dioica) in Pakistan
Weeds act as reservoirs of begomoviruses and ‘‘mixing vessels’’ leading to emergence of new viruses that may infect crops once a susceptible host plant is introduced into an agro-ecological system. Owing to the importance ...
Genetic Diversity Analysis for Earliness, Fiber Quality and Cotton Leaf Curl Virus in Gossypium hirsutum L. Accessions.
In the present set of experiment 159 cotton genotypes that were imported from USA were evaluated for cotton leaf curl
virus disease tolerance, better fiber quality and various yield related traits. For evaluation of these ...

This document describes the goals and objectives of Biometrics and Statistics Section
(BSS), highlights current status and the challenges in the changing agricultural landscape
to sustainably support the livelihood and the ...
Recombination Among Begomoviruses on Malvaceous PlantsLeads to the Evolution of Okra Enation Leaf Curl Virus in Pakistan
Whitefly transmitted begomoviruses (family Geminiviridae) are the majorreason for significant yield losses of dicotyledonous crops in tropics andsubtropics. Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) is one of the important vegetablecrops, ...
RNA Interference based Approach to Down Regulate Osmoregulators of Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci): Potential Technology for the Control of Whitefly
Over the past decade RNA interference (RNAi) technology has emerged as a successful tool not only for functional genomics, but in planta expression of short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) that could offer great potential for ...
Nutrients Can Enhance the Abundance and Expression of Alkane Hydroxylase CYP153 Gene in the Rhizosphere of Ryegrass Planted in Hydrocarbon-Polluted Soil
Plant-bacteria partnership is a promising strategy for the remediation of soil and water polluted with hydrocarbons. However, the limitation of major nutrients (N, P and K) in soil affects the survival and metabolic activity ...
