Application of Remote Sensing and GIS Techniques for Decadal Change Detection of Mangroves along Tamil Nadu Coast, India
Abstract: Mangrove forests are among of the most productive and biologically important ecosystems of the world. The mangrove forests aids stabilize shorelines and reduce the devastating impact of natural disasters such as tsunamis and hurricanes. They also provide breeding and nursing grounds for marine and pelagic species, and food, medicine, fuel and building materials for local communities. Despite of its immense importance, it is declining due to increasing coastal population, urbanization …

Preliminary In Silico Analysis of Choline Monooxygenase and Betaine Aldehyde Dehydrogenase from Suaeda monoica Forssk. and its Expression in E. coli.
Abstract: AbstractIn a tropical country like India, the yield of crop plants is majorly affected by soil salinity and drought. One of the strategies to address this problem is by introducing genes responsible for salinity/drought tolerance in crop plants. Such genes could be identified and isolated from mangrove plants, as they are known to have evolved certain physiological mechanisms to augment saline environments. One such mechanism is the accumulation of Glycine …

Plant Seeds as Biosorbents for the Purification of Water
Abstract: Water purification is essential to overcome drinking water problem. This study was carried out to find out suitable low cost biosorbents for the purification of physiochemical parameters of water. Moringa (Moringa oleifera), Nelli (Phyllanthus acidus), jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus), java plum (Syzygium cumini) and mangrove apple (Sonneratia caseolaris) seeds were used and their efficiency was compared with activated charcoal as a reference. Water samples were collected from a selected drinking well …
