Buckwheat (F. esculentum) is a gluten-free pseudocereal with high biological value. It occupies a special place amongst cultivable crops due to its nutritional, dietetic and therapeutic properties. Buckwheat grain is characterized by a high content of starch, protein with an advantageous amino acid composition, a low content of α-gliadin and a high content of dieta...

The enzyme nitrate reductase (NR, EC 1.6.6.1) was determined from the leaves of spinach seedlings by in vivo and in vitro methods. Various experiments were performed with the leaves of 10-day-old seedlings of spinach. The spinach plants were grown in the pots filled with medium black calcareous soil under natural daylight condition during October, 2004 to Febr...
A field experiment entitled “Resource use efficiency in winter rice (Oryza sativa L.) unde r SRI concept as influenced by microclimate ” was carried out during the year 2016 and 2017 at the farmer‟s field located at Nepalikhuti Village (Lat. 26066ʹ99ʹʹ N, Long. 93068ʹ26ʹʹE) in Bokakhat sub-division of Golaghat district, Assam to study the performance of winter ...
“Salicylic acid as an elicitor for the induction of systemic acquired resistance against fusarium wilt (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceri) in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)” Salicylic acid spray on healthy and inoculated chickpea plants revealed that activities of peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase and phenylalanine ammonia lyase remained higher at all infection stages...
The present investigation on “Salt responsive root transcriptome sequencing to discover putative genes in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)” was conducted at Department of Biotechnology, Junagadh Agricultural University, Junagadh with objectives to characterize transcriptome in chickpea root under saline condition to identify a set of candidate transcripts (genes),...
The redox state of cytochrome c_ oxidase during in situ respiration of seventeen promising sugarcane cultivars was monitored by examining the reaction of this enzyme with carbon monoxide, as expressed by production of nitrite during aerobic assay of in_ vivo nitrate reductase. All the seventeen sugarcane cultivars thus tested were found to be completely sensi...
