Varietal Screening of Different Aromatic Rice Varieties against Rice Stem Borer (Scirpophaga innotata Walker)
Abstract: Varietal screening of 12 different aromatic rice varieties including check variety pertaining to 1% dead heart (DH) and white ear head (WEH) were done at Instructional Cum Research farm, Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat during Kharif 2017 and 2018 under field condition in order to evaluate the resistance/susceptibility reaction against rice stem borer, Scirpophaga innotata Walker. The two year pooled data of stem borer infestation at different intervals (30 and 60 …

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 …

Polystyrene Plastic Waste into Liquid Fuel Using Silica-Alumina Catalyst, Extracted from Rice Husk
Abstract: Catalytic Pyrolysis of Polystyrene (PS) into fuel like products using silica alumina catalyst that was extracted from rice husk was investigated over temperature range of 430–470°C. The output of catalytic pyrolysis was liquid oil, solid residues (char) and gaseous fraction. The product yields as a function of temperature, time and catalyst amount were studied. High conversion of liquid (48.8%) was achieved at 430 and 450ºC in the presence of 12.5 …
