Methods of Crop Breeding in Plants: A Review
Abstract: In mass selection, seeds are gathered from (as a rule a couple of dozen to a couple of hundred) desirable appearing individuals in a populace, and the cutting edge is sown from the supply of blended seed. This technique, some of the time alluded to as phenotypic selection, depends on how every individual looks. Mass selection has been used widely to improve old “land” varieties that have been passed down …

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, …

Studies on Extraction, Modelling and Purification of Quercetin from Peel of Allium cepa
Abstract: ABSTRACT Quercetin is an anti-oxidant, which very efficiently scavenges highly reactive biological species such as peroxynitrite and hydroxyl radical. Quercetin belongs to the flavonoid’s family. The present studies on optimization of physico-chemical parameters like effects of different solvents, different solvent percentages, particle size, pH and extraction time for the extraction of quercetin was studied. The highest quercetin concentration for optimized conditions was 38 µg/ml. In the soxhlet extraction process, the …
