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 …

Comparative Study of Soft Soils Characteristics with Cement Waste Dust, Lime Powder and Boiled Rice Water
Abstract: Improvement of soft soil properties and effective pavement system performance of soft soils can be done only by stabilization process. It is an effective method. Jointly or individually, Chemical and/or Mechanical stabilization is done for various soils depending on the nature of that soil. As far as soft soils are concern, they are having reactive nature and so chemical stabilization is the best choice to improve such soil. Mainly, in …

Stabilization of Alluvial Soil by using Boiler Feed Ash
Abstract: The feasibility of using industrial wastes, boiler feed ash (BFA) (rice husk-based) from an oil mill for soil stabilization was studied. The waste material is produced as an industrial by-product in the boiler of the oil mill; the waste contains silica compound up to 85%, hence it can be used as a stabilizing agent. The effects of adding BFA on Proctor's density, Atterberg’s limits, soil plasticity and the CBR value …
