Carbon Stock, Afforestation and Acidic Deposition: An Analysis of Inter-Relation with Reference to Arid Areas     

Sanjay Kumar  R. Datta  S. Sinha  T. Kojima  S. Katoh  M. Mohan 《Water, air, and soil pollution》2001,130(1-4):1127-1132

Recent advances in desert afforestation underlines its viability and importance in combating global warming and acidification. In this paper, the inter-relation between afforestation, global warming and acid rain has been analyzed. Numerical simulations indicate that afforestation of deserts has distinct advantage as carbon sink and as an important factor for changing microclimate of the region rather than a source of energy. Acidic deposition may well be utilised as fertiliser in nutrient deficit soil of tropical arid areas. However, past trends and projections of acidic deposition in arid areas adjacent to Thar deserts indicate an early efforts are required to cap the opportunity. Delays may contribute towards more incidences of failures.  相似文献   

Wheat transformation – an update of recent progress     

Prem L. Bhalla  Harald H. Ottenhof  Mohan B. Singh 《Euphytica》2006,149(3):353-366

Summary Genetic transformation is vital to the transfer of novel genes into crop plants as well as to the emerging area of functional genomics. However, the successful genetic transformation of wheat still remains time consuming and genotype dependent. This paper updates the progress made in last 3 years towards developing a robust genetic transformation system for wheat. Agrobacterium-mediated wheat transformation offers advantages such as single-copy gene insertion, minimal rearrangement of DNA, low cost and comparatively high efficiency. The reported recent developments in wheat transformation will lead to increased efficiency of wheat breeding programs. The most promising recent progress is in the development of drought-tolerant wheat, since water stress continues to be a major limiting factor hindering world wheat productivity under adverse hot and dry weather conditions.  相似文献

First record of Asian grey weevil (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Myllocerus undatus)</Emphasis> on coconut from Kerala,India     

A. Josephrajkumar  P. Rajan  Chandrika Mohan  R. J. Thomas 《Phytoparasitica》2011,39(1):63-65

The occurrence of Asian grey weevil Myllocerus undatus (Curculionidae: Coleoptera) damaging coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) seedlings is reported for the first time from Kerala, India. A mild to moderate level of infestation damaging 5–10% leaf lamina of un-split leaves with a typical notching-like symptom along the leaf margins is noticed on the majority of the coconut seedlings belonging to different coconut varieties, viz., ‘Chowghat Orange Dwarf’, ‘Chowghat Green Dwarf’, ‘Malayan Green Dwarf’, ‘West Coast Tall’ and Dwarf x Tall hybrids. M. undatus has not been reported as a destructive pest on any of the crops from India and is considered to be a pest of quarantine significance. Adult weevils have a characteristic tri-spined hind femur and elytra strongly angled broader than the prothorax.  相似文献   

Histamine in egg yolk: heat resistance and relation to production status     

R P Moudgal  J N Panda  J Mohan 《British poultry science》1991,32(4):865-869

1. The presence of histamine in egg yolk, its losses during storage, incubation and heating, and its relationship to cage density stress and the egg production status of hens are described. 2. A significant (P less than 0.05) reduction in the histamine concentration of egg yolk was noted after incubating or heating egg yolks or on storage eggs. 3. Histamine concentration was greater in the yolks of high egg producing hens. 4. The concentrations of histamine in egg yolks did not change significantly (P less than 0.05) on keeping the hens individually in a cage, pairing them in the same size cage or after separating them again to individual cages.  相似文献

Development and application of an indirect ELISA test for the detection of antibodies to Mycoplasma crocodyli infection in crocodiles (Crocodylus niloticus)     

Dawo F  Mohan K 《Veterinary microbiology》2007,119(2-4):283-289

Non-availability of a standardized rapid serodiagnostic test for quick and accurate diagnosis of Mycoplasma crocodyli (M. crocodyli) infection in crocodiles was the underlining reason for conducting the present study. An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA) for the detection of antibodies (Ab) to M. crocodyli infection in crocodile sera was developed using sonicated antigen (Ag) and anti-crocodile conjugate. The iELISA test was optimised with different reagents and at different steps. A cut-off value of percent positive greater than or equal to 53.47% resulted in an estimated sensitivity and specificity of 85.67 and 100%, respectively. The developed iELISA could be used for detection of Abs to M. crocodyli infection in crocodiles and may enable to understand the transmission of the disease.  相似文献
