Anand Agricultural University, Anand

Anand Agricultural University (AAU) was established in 2004 at Anand with the support of the Government of Gujarat, Act No.(Guj 5 of 2004) dated April 29, 2004. Caved out of the erstwhile Gujarat Agricultural University (GAU), the dream institution of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and Dr. K. M. Munshi, the AAU was set up to provide support to the farming community in three facets namely education, research and extension activities in Agriculture, Horticulture Engineering, product Processing and Home Science. At present there seven Colleges, seventeen Research Centers and six Extension Education Institute working in nine districts of Gujarat namely Ahmedabad, Anand, Dahod, Kheda, Panchmahal, Vadodara, Mahisagar, Botad and Chhotaudepur AAU's activities have expanded to span newer commodity sectors such as soil health card, bio-diesel, medicinal plants apart from the mandatory ones like rice, maize, tobacco, vegetable crops, fruit crops, forage crops, animal breeding, nutrition and dairy products etc. the core of AAU's operating philosophy however, continues to create the partnership between the rural people and committed academic as the basic for sustainable rural development. In pursuing its various programmes AAU's overall mission is to promote sustainable growth and economic independence in rural society. AAU aims to do this through education, research and extension education. Thus, AAU works towards the empowerment of the farmers.

    IDENTIFICATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF VARIOUS OYVMV (OKRA YELLOW VEIN MOSAIC VIRUS) ISOLATES FROM DIFFERENT AGROCLIMATIC ZONES OF GUJARAT USING NEXT GENERATION SEQUENCING
    (DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURAL BIOTECHNOLOGY B. A. COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE ANAND AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY ANAND, 2019) SOLANKI GAUTAMKUMAR VELJIBHAI; Dr. Akarsh Parihar
    The present investigation entitled “Identification and classification of various OYVMV (Okra Yellow Vein Mosaic Virus) isolates from different agro-climatic zones of Gujarat using Next Generation Sequencing” was carried out at the Department of Agricultural Biotechnology, Anand Agricultural University, Anand during 2017-19. During June-November 2018, total sixteen samples of OYVMV infected okra leaves were collected from eight different agro-climatic zones of Gujarat having okra under cultivation. Viral DNA isolation from Yellow Vein Mosaic Virus infected okra leaf samples was carried out by Extract-n-Amp Plant PCR kit. After isolation of viral genomic DNA from sixteen samples, gel electrophoresis was carried out using 0.8% agarose gel. The DNA bands corresponding to viral genome from the 16 different viral DNA samples run on the agarose gel were eluted and purification through promega purification kit. the ssDNA was quantified by NanoDrop® ND-1000. The Navsari samples gave the highest quantity of viral genomic ssDNA (44.7 ng/μl) followed by Mehsana (43.3 ng/μl). The ssDNA was converted into dsDNA by using cDNA synthesis kit. After purification, the Qubit® 3.0 Fluorometer was used to quantify the viral genomic dsDNA and the highest quantity was recorded by sample from Kheda (38.3 ng/μl) followed by Navsari (29.2 ng/μl).
