Genetic Diversity of Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Germplasm
Abstract: The present investigation was conducted to examine the genetic diversity existing among 30 genotypes of wheat. The experimental design used was randomized block design having four replications. The study revealed wide range of variability and high heritability for all the traits. High estimates of genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV) and phenotypic coefficient of variation (PCV) were observed for number of tillers per plant and yield per plant. High heritability coupled …

Advancing Climate-Resilient Agriculture: Integrative Biotechnological Approaches for Sustainable Crop Production
Abstract: Climate change presents a major challenge to global agriculture by increasing the occurrence and severity of both non-living and living stress factors, such as drought, high temperatures, salt buildup, waterlogging, and new pests and diseases. These stressors interfere with the normal functioning of plants at the physical, chemical, and genetic levels, which in turn results in lower crop yields and poorer quality. While traditional methods of plant breeding played a …

Evaluation of Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam.) Germplasm
Abstract: AbstractThe experiment was conducted with the existing bearing trees of different jackfruit genotypes at Jamalpur region during the year 2014–2015. Twenty-three jackfruit germplasm viz., AHJ-01, AHJ-02, AHJ-03, AHJ-04, AHJ-05, AHJ-06, AHJ-07, AHJ-08, AHJ-09, AHJ-10, AHJ-11, AHJ-12, AHJ-13, AHJ-14, AHJ-15, AHJ-16, AHJ-17, AHJ-18, AHJ-19, AHJ-20, AHJ-21, AHJ-22 and AHJ-23 were selected for the study to identify superior ones. The recorded age of the selected tress ranged from 8 to 29 years. …

Collection and Evaluation of Ber Germplasm
Abstract: An experiment to identify suitable ber germplasm was conducted at Horticulture Research Centre (HRC) fruit orchard, Regional Agricultural Research Station (RARS), Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI), Jamalpur, Bangladesh during the fruiting season of 2016-2017. Fifty-eight accessions collected from different parts of Bangladesh were included in the study. The scion of the collected germplasm was grafted on 10 years old ber plant and the age of grafted branches was 3 years …

Improvement of Crop Plants through in vitro Techniques
Abstract: There has been a great demand for high-yielding, disease-free planting stock for agricultural, forestry, plantation and horticulture crops with improved quality. In vitro tissue culture techniques has emerged as a viable tool for the improvement of crops. The various in vitro techniques utilized for crop improvement includes: micropropagation which helps in large scale production, meristem culture which can effectively remove pathogens from plants, embryo culture can overcome the post-zygotic failure …

A Review on Quantum Dots and Their Bioimaging Applications
Abstract: Quantum dots are nanoscale semiconductor crystals engineered to emit highly intense, photo-stable luminescence with quantum yields reaching 90%. Structurally, they are synthesized as single-substance core types, hetero-structured core-shell architectures for enhanced stability, or blended alloys. They are further categorized by synthesis and functional traits into colloidal, magnetic, and highly fluorescent varieties, alongside specialized silicon and eco-friendly carbon-based variants derived from organic waste. Due to their exceptional optoelectronic properties, they are …

Effect of TMT Bar Lugging on Steel Reinforcement Failure Mode under Monotonic Loading
Abstract: Thermo-mechanically treated (TMT) ribbed bars modify the overall progress of failure in reinforced concrete. The ribs maintain anchorage after friction on the rest of the bar is eliminated during deformation, taking up the ultimate compressive load. This however, is inadvertently jeopardized by the stress concentration effect of the rib geometry. This paper analyses the extent to which some of the geometric forms of bar lugging affect the prevalence of ductile …

Flavonoid Contents and Antioxidant Activity of an Endophytic Bacteria Associated with Medicinal Plant Humulus lupulus
Abstract: Endophytes are symbiotic microorganisms, most often bacteria or fungi, that reside and multiply within plant tissues without inducing visible signs of disease or negatively affecting the host plant. Endophytic bacteria contribute to plant development by stimulating growth, strengthening defence mechanisms, enhancing tolerance to both abiotic and biotic stresses, and facilitating improved nutrient uptake. Endophytic bacteria serve as an important reservoir of bioactive compounds, notably antioxidant molecules, that play a crucial …

Significance of TE Domain and Genetic Variations in FASN Gene in Dairy Animals
Abstract: The interest in the bovine fatty acid synthase (FASN) gene has increased during the last few years. FASN is a multifunctional enzyme that catalyzes de novo biosynthesis of long-chain saturated fatty acid, and alteration of this enzyme may affect economic traits including fatty acid composition. FASN is involved in fat metabolism and is an important candidate gene affecting fat composition of milk because of its central role in de-novo lipogenesis …

Review on CBIR Image Based on Colour, Texture and Shape Features of Biomedical Image Applications
Abstract: This study seeks to understand how different image enhancing methods affect the sensitivity of contrast-based textural measures and morphological traits derived from high-resolution satellite data (three-band SPOT-5). The built-up/non-built-up detection framework is the backbone of every biomedical application. Using supervised learning while working with a low-resolution reference layer reduces uncertainty and boosts the reference layer's quality in a roundabout way. The image's histogram is recalculated based on contrast in order …
