Analysis of Oil Content in Jatropha by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectrometry
Thirty two diverse Jatropha curcas L. cultivars were analyzed for their oil content by the standard Soxhlet extraction method using
hexane as solvent. The results were then compared with those obtained by nuclear magnetic ...
Operationalizing inclusive innovation: Lessons from innovation platforms in livestock value chains in India and Mozambique
Various authors have identified the potential relevance of innovation system approaches for inclusive innovation, that is, the means by which new goods and services are developed for and by the poor. However, it is still ...
Characterization of tetraploid wheat landraces for cold tolerance and agronomic traits under rainfed conditions of Iran
Abiotic stresses such as cold and drought are major limiting factors of durum wheat production in the highlands of Iran. A total of 641 tetraploid wheat (Triticum turgidum L.) accessions, selected from wheat collections ...
Evaluation of Advanced Potato Clones for Drought Tolerance in Arid Zone in Rajasthan, India
Potato is a cool season crop and
requires optimum soil moisture throughout
its growing period and its productivity is
hampered to a great extent in absence of these
favorable conditions (Cabello et al., 2013).
Exploitation ...
BI-CULTURING OF GRASS PEA AND BARLEY IN THE SEMI-ARID REGIONS OF IRAN
Forage production during summer is a challenge in the semi-arid dry areas. There is a short
season window after the cereal harvestin the Iranian semi-arid regions that remains fallow till the
next growing season. The present ...
A SSR kit to study genetic diversity in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
A chickpea simple sequence repeat (SSR) marker reference kit has been developed based on the
genotyping of the global chickpea composite collection (3,000 accessions) with 35 SSR markers.
The kit consists of three pools ...
DEVELOPMENT OF SUPER EARLY GENOTYPES IN GREENGRAM [VIGNA RADIATA (L.)Wilczek]
Greengram [Vigna radiata (L.)Wilczek] also known as mungbean in South Asia, is an important pulse crop of the Vigna group. Among the major production constraints, terminal heat stress during summer season and pre-harvest ...
Assessment of genetic diversity for cotton leaf curl virus (CLCuD), fiber quality and some morphological traits using different statistical procedures in Gossypium hirsutum L
Cotton leaf curl virus disease (CLCuD) is one of the major factors limiting cotton production in Pakistan. For the assessment of genetic diversity one hundred cotton genotypes was evaluated for CLCuD tolerance, fiber ...
Adaptation Patterns and Yield Stability of Durum Wheat Landraces to Highland Cold Rainfed Areas of Iran
Because of unpredictable conditions in Mediterranean environments, successful crop production requires improved adaptation and yield stability to mitigate major abiotic stresses such as drought and cold. In this study 380 ...
Relating Trends in Streamflow to Anthropogenic Influences: A Case Study of Himayat Sagar Catchment, India
Catchment development has been identified as a potentially major cause of
streamflow change in many river basins in India. This research aims to understand changes
in the Himayat Sagar catchment (HSC), India, where significant ...
