Seaweed Mediated Biosynthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Gracilaria fergusonii J.Ag. Collected From Hare Island, Thoothukudi in the South East Coast of Tamil Nadu, India
Abstract: In the present study silver nanoparticles were synthesized using the aqueous extract of red seaweed Gracilaria fergusonii J.Ag. as the reducing agent. The formation of silver nanoparticles was confirmed by colour change from light yellow to dark brownish red, UV– visible spectroscopy, FT-IR, X-ray diffraction method (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis spectroscopy (EDS). The anoparticles showed an absorbance at 442 nm on UV–visible spectroscopy. The …

Mycoplasma Like Organisms or Pleuro Pneumonia Like Organisms (PPLO)
Abstract: Mycoplasma like Organisms is the smallest of microorganisms causing plant disease. Viruses are acutely small (they can be seen only with the aid of an electron microscope), being composed of nothing more than a protein shell consisting a small amount of genetic material. Plant viruses commonly survive year-round in perennial weeds and trees or insect vectors, and are transmitted to other plants via feeding activities of certain insects, usually aphids, …

Photonic Crystals – A Review
Abstract: Photonic crystals are periodically arrayed electromagnetic media, commonly having possessing photonic band gaps: ranges of frequency in which light cannot propagate through the structure. This periodicity, where the length scale is proportional to the wavelength of light in the band gap, is the electromagnetic analogue of a crystalline atomic lattice, where the latter acts on the electron wave function to make the familiar band gaps, semiconductors, and so on, of …

Physiochemical Mechanism Associated with Drought Tolerance in Tomato
Abstract: Abiotic stresses are one of the key limitations to global crop production and food security. Among the abiotic stresses, drought is one of the most vital factors that cause changes in morphological, biochemical, and physiological characteristics in plants, and consequently affects the growth and productivity of crops. The main purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effect of drought on physiological traits (ratio of root/shoot length, leaf area …

An Overview of Stem Cells
Abstract: Immature microorganisms are a class of undifferentiated cells that can separate into specific cell types. Generally, immature microorganisms originate from two fundamental sources: • Embryos framed amid the blastocyst period of embryological advancement (embryonic immature microorganisms) and • Adult tissue (grown-up immature microorganisms). Both types are for the most part characterized by their strength, or potential to separate into various cell types, (for example, skin, muscle, bone, and so on.).
