    Analysis for presence of plasmids in antimicrobial producing endophytes of finger millet (Eleusine coracana L. Gaertn.)
    (Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 2019) Kumari, Kushboo; Haider, Z.A.
    The present study has revealed that several endophytes with unique capabilities are part of the finger millet biome. Further study of these endophytes may result in discovery of their potential in agriculture, by way of their ability to combat abiotic and biotic stresses as well as human health by harnessing of substances which could be used as bactericidals.

    Molecular analysis of antagonistic effect of Trichoderma to Fusarium in Tomato
    (Birsa Agricultural University, Ranchi, 2019) Prabha, Pragya; Banerjee, Madhuparna
    Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is a widely grown vegetable crop acquiring the status of world’s most popular vegetable due to its importance for nutritive value, processing and export potential. Tomato is affected by many diseases among which wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum is one of the important disease, resulting in 10-50 per cent yield loss around the world. Fusarium oxysporum is a serious soil-borne pathogen and persists for longer periods in the soil. Plant treated with Trichoderma viride and Fusarium oxysporum at different time interval. The result revealed that plant treated with Trichoderma viride have altered metabolic activities as they undergo a stress condition. As per our analysis by visual observation the 5 day Trichoderma treated plant with recovery are found more healthy which shows the antagonistic effect of Trichoderma viride against Fusarium oxysporum. This could be due to the beneficial effect of TV in promoting plant growth. Molecular estimation was also performed. DNA extracted from Tomato, Trichoderma viride and Fusarium oxysporum amplified with OPA series primers. And result revealed that primer OPA 13 can distinguish between Tomato, Trichoderma viride and Fusarium oxysporum. CONTENTS PARTICULARS
