Short Experimental Report with Brief Review on Biomicrofluidics in Biotechnology
Abstract: In this experimental work, a single prototype microchannel bend is fabricated by maskless lithography, hot embossing lithography and direct bonding technique. The surface-driven microfluidic flow of dyed water is recorded in the fabricated prototype bend. A brief review on bio-microfluidics is provided in this short experimental report towards the applications in biotechnology. Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is an efficient polymer to fabricate the microfluidic lab-on-a-chip systems. This short experimental report may be …

Protein Metabolism in Plants during Abiotic Stress (Drought, Flood, Heat and Cold): An Overview
Abstract: Plants are frequently subjected to several abiotic environmental stresses under natural conditions causing profound impacts on agricultural yield and quality. Tolerance and acclimation of plants are always related with significant changes in protein, cellular localization, post transcription and post-translational modifications. Protein response pathways as well as pathways unique to a given stress condition shared by plants under different stressed environment are discussed. In a nutshell, this paper provide an overview …

Inheritance Studies of Aroma in Aromatic Rice (Oryza sativa L.) of Temperate Areas of Kashmir Valley
Abstract: Three aromatic landraces viz. Mushkbudji, Kamad, and Black rice and two non-aromatic varieties were used to study the inheritance of aroma, the number of genes governing the inheritance and the type of gene action. Based on the inheritance pattern of aroma, 3:1 Mendelian ratio was observed in the cross of Black rice with Jhelum and Kamad with Chenab. Complementary gene action was observed in the cross of Mushkbudji with Jhelum …
