GENE EXPRESSION ALTERATION IN B-CELL REGENERATION IN STZ- INDUCED DIABETIC MALE RAT TREATMENT WITH N-BUTANOL

The present research measured the impact of Cumin (Cuminum cyminum Linn.) on diabetes mellitus caused by streptozotocin (60 mg/kg b.w., i.p.). Blood glucose level around 200 mg/dl of rats have been used as a diabetic. Male rats of type Wister were used and divided into five groups classify into 8 rats for each group: 1st group: with administration of water were used as normal control; 2nd group: diabetes was induced by a single subcutaneous injection of streptozotocin 60 mg/kg body weight and used as diabetic control; n-butanol cumin extract into (50, 100, 200 mg/kg, b.w.) were administered to groups III, IV, V, respectively. Cumin therapy in both doses contributes to a substantial decrease of the glucose rates, Our study provides important knowledge about the role of N-butanol cumin by showing InsI gene expression. Male mature rats were organized about 5.6 times (0.162 ± 0.064) in diabetic rats (V) compared to rats with male rats (0.029 ± 0.018). While Reg3a was significantly regulated 4.3 times (1.63 ± 0.61) inches from rats with diabetes (V) compared to male diabetics (II) in rats (0.34 ± 0.26) but in group (III, IV) in the InsI gene . (0.102 ± 0.043,0.154 ± 0.054) Our quantitative data, in particular, did not show the desired result compared to group (V). Likewise, (1.23 ± 0.58,1.46 ± 0.42) with the gene expression of Reg3a in group (III, IV), respectively, no required recurrence of a good level compared to group (V) was shown. The InsI and Reg3a genes also partially support increased insulin level and low blood glucose. These results confirm that the treatment of N-butanol cumin leads to an increase in the level of tissue regeneration of the pancreas, especially since beta cells are present in Langerhans Island which can be attributed to the possible role of being a complete component of cumin The findings obtained clearly show the role of oxidative stress in diabetes induction. The cumin prophylactic effect as a nutritional supplement is suggested in this study because of its role in reducing blood glucose and regeneration of the Reg3a gene responsible for regeneration of B-cells in the pancreas.
Effect of PGRs on fruit set and other horticultural traits in greenhouse tomato under South Gujarat conditions

The present investigation was carried out at Regional Horticultural Research Station, ASPEE College of Horticulture and Forestry, Navsari Agricultural University, Navsari, Gujarat during kharif, 2016. The experiment involved fourteen different treatments 4-CPA 20 ppm (T1), 4-CPA 30 ppm (T2), 4-CPA 40 ppm (T3), 2,4-D 2.50 ppm (T4), 2,4-D 5.00 ppm (T5), 2,4-D 7.50 ppm (T6), 4-CPA 20 ppm followed by GA3 (30 ppm) within 24 hours (T7), 4-CPA 30 ppm followed by GA3 (30 ppm) within 24 hours (T8), 4-CPA 40 ppm followed by GA3 (30 ppm) within 24 hours (T9), 2,4-D 2.50 ppm followed by GA3 (30 ppm) within 24 hours (T10), 2,4-D 5.00 ppm followed by GA3 (30 ppm) within 24 hours (T11), 2,4-D 7.50 ppm followed by GA3 (30 ppm) within 24 hours (T12), Control- No spray (T13), 4-CPA 30 ppm- Inflorescence dipping (T14) which was laid out in a Randomized Block Design with three replications. Among different levels of treatment, 30 ppm 4-CPA (Inflorescence dipping) exhibited maximum plant height of 203.47, 251.73 and 306.67 cm at 120, 180 days after planting and at final picking, respectively whereas, control had maximum leaf area (843.33 cm2). Plants treated with 30 ppm 4-CPA (Inflorescence dipping) were found to be superior to all other treatments for majority of the reproductive parameters like fruit set percent (72.50), fruits per cluster (5.80) and number of fruits per plant (58). The superiority of 4-CPA at the rate of 30 ppm (Inflorescences dipping) was also reflected by tomato plants in terms of significantly maximum fruit yield per plant (4.95 kg) as well as fruit yield per m2 (12.69 kg)except average fruit weight. Subsequently, economic analysis of investigation revealed T14 (30 ppm 4-CPA-Inflorescence dipping) as highly remunerative treatment exhibiting BCR of 0.85 with net realization of Rs. 116629.00.
EFFECT OF SPRAYING DIFFERENT CONCENTRATIONS OF HUMIC ACID ON THE GROWTH AND YIELD OF WHEAT CROP (IPA 99 CULTIVAR) IN DIFFERENT STAGES

A field experiment was conducted for the season 2019-2020 in the experimental field belonging to the Department of Field Crops, College of Agriculture, Al-Qasim Green University, to study the effect of spraying Humic acid in different stages on the wheat crop, The factorial experiment was applied according to the Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replicates. The experiment included the study of two factors: the effect of spraying humic acid in different stages is (T1 elongation stage-T2 Heading stage-T3 flowering stage) and four concentrations are (0-5-10-15-15 g/ L) and which symbolized by (N0-N1-N2-N3), respectively. The results indicated the excelled of the spray treatment at a concentration of 15 g /L in the plant height, the flag leaf, the leaf content of chlorophyll, the number of spikes per square meter, the number of grains per spike, the total grain yield and the biological yield, as well as the treatment spraying in the flowering stage in the number of spikes per square meter, the number of grains per spike and the total grain yield and The biologist yield, While no significant differences were observed for the acid spraying stages in the trait of the plant height, the flag leaf and the leaf content of chlorophyll. As for the traits of the 1000 grain weight, no differences were observed in both study and interaction factors. Also, significant differences were observed between the interaction factors in the leaf content of chlorophyll, the number of spikes, the grain yield and the biologist yield, while the rest of the traits did not show any significant differences for the interaction factors.
PREVENTION OF QUALITY LOSS AND MELANOSIS OF WHITE SHRIMP (PENAEUS SPP.), DURING COLD STORAGE BY MANGO SEED KERNEL EXTRACT

Background and Objective: Shrimps are highly perishable with a limited shelf-life, mainly associated with melanosis (discoloration), as well as chemical and microbial deteriorations. This study aimed to testify ethanolic mango seed kernel extract (MSKE) activity on the melanosis formation and quality of white shrimp (Penaeus spp.) during cold storage. Shrimp samples underwent immersion in different treatments (control group (C), sodium metabisulphite solution group (SMS; Na2S2O5; 1.25%) and MSKE group (1 and 2%). Methodologies: Shrimp samples were packaged in polyethylene bags and stored inside the refrigerator (4 ± 1°C) to be periodically examined for their sensory quality, physicochemical parameters and bacteriological status. Results indicated that the melanosis formation was significantly delayed and sensory quality was significantly improved in shrimp treated with MSKE, compared with SMS and the control shrimp. The increase in the bacteria amounts (TVC, PTC and EBC), pH, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVBN) and thiobarbutric acid reactive substances (TBARS) were significantly decreased in shrimp treated with MSKE. The melanosis score, chemical indices and microbiological status of shrimp immersed in 2% MSKE was less than that treated by 1% MSKE. Conclusion: Based on chemical indices, microbial analyses and sensorial changes the shelf-lives of white shrimp was longest for 2% MSKE(10 days), followed by SMS(9 days), 1% MSKE(8 days) and Control samples (6 days). These results suggested that 2% MSKE could be used as an effective natural alternative to synthetic antimelanosic agents to inhibit post-mortem melanosis, improve the quality of shrimp during cold storage.
EFFECT OF DIFFERENT CONTROL METHODS ON CUSCUTA CAMPESTRIS, AND GROWTH AND PRODUCTIVITY OF EGGPLANT (SOLANUM MELONGENA)

A field experiment was conducted in Al-Qizuina district-province of Najaf during the 2017 growing season in order to control parasitizing dodder (Cuscuta campestris) on eggplants through increasing plant growth and inducing plant resistance using nutrients and herbicide. The experiment arranged within RCBD with three replicates. Results showed significant differences between treatments. Among all the treatments, Boric acid resulted in the highest values of leaf number, leaf area, plant height, fresh and dry weight of shoot and root, thickness of bark, epidermis and petiole cortex of the leaf, and shorter time to fruit maturity as well as no infection was detected. While, Na2SiO3 resulted in higher values of stem diameter, earliness in first flower formation and higher of fruit set, number of fruit per plant, fruit weight and plant productivity, early (13.84 ton.ha)and total yield (69.24 ton.ha). The herbicide Sulfosulfuron was effective to control dodder resulted in filaments decease and prevented its flowering compared to the mechanical control and the other infected treatments in which dodder not only reduced the eggplants vegetative growth but also affected the quality and quantity of early (5.82 ton.ha) and total yield (44.39 ton.ha). These results confirm the using of high efficient treatments in to control dodder which can be practically applied in the integrate management program of this pest.
EVALUATION THE EXPRESSION PATTERN OF TAPHT1 AND TAPHO2 GENES IN WHEAT (TRITICUM AESTIVUM L.) UNDER PHOSPHORUS DEPRIVATION CONDITION

Phosphorus (P) is an important macronutrient with critical functions in plants. Low phosphorus availability is a major abiotic factor constraining wheat growth. Phosphate (Pi) transporters, which mediate Pi acquisition and Pi translocation within the plant, are key factors in Pi deficiency responses. However, their relevance for adaptation to Pi limitation, particularly in wheat, is still unclear. A hydroponically study was conducted to evaluate the expression pattern of TaPht1and TaPHO2 genes in 8 wheat genotypes (Triticum aestivum L.) in response to three P application rates. Seedlings were hydroponically grown in the adequate 0.1mM, deficit 0.02mM and deprivation (0) P. A factorial experiment was arranged in Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replicates. Dry weight of shoot and root, P contents in shoots and roots were measured. The expression of TaPht1and TaPHO2 genes with housekeeping TaQhnRNP gene was evaluated. The measured criteria (shoot and root dry weight and shoot and root P content) were significantly different between P levels conditions. Latifya and AbuGhraib grown in adequate P (0.1mM) and deprivation (0P) medium produced higher shoot dry weight (0.446 and 0.385 g) and (0.118 and 0.124g), respectively. Latifya produced higher root dry weight (0.119 and0.580 g) at 0.1 and 0.02mM P, respectively, Babylon (0.66g) at 0 P level. The genotype AbuGhraib had higher content of P in shoot and roots at 0.02mM P which gave 0.560 and 0.390%. The expression of TaPHT1 and TaPHO2 genes were increased after exposed to low-P level and deprivation, overexpression was in AL-Fatah 36.3 folds and 9.5 folds of gene TaPHT1 at 0.02mM and 57.9folds of TaPHO2 gene at P deprivation, Latifya 119 folds of TaPHO2 gene at 0.02mMP. This study showed a large variation in shoot and root dry weight, shoots and root P content and gene expression among wheat genotypes under various P concentrations. The findings of this study reveal that AbuGhraib andLatifya are efficient and responsive genotypes, which have potential for better growth in P limited environments. However, these results should be confirmed under field conditions.
PREPARATION OF NATURAL MATERIALS FOR TREATMENT OF WATER

Water soluble polymers are often used in treatment as coagulants and one of these materials is Chitosan, which was extracted from the outer shell of crustaceans (Corbicula fluminea ). Water samples were collected from hospital, dietary factory, Treatment Plant, AlHilla River and Al-Yahodiya Drainage. Samples were treated by addition of the Chitosan with different dose, different contact time, and different sedimentation time. It has been recorded that 0.5 g/l was the best concentration with 10 minutes contact time and 10 minutes sedimentation time. Total Removal Efficiency for each samples was (74.2, 49.1, 80.2, 29) % respectively.

Effect of Lime, Inorganic, and Organic Sources on Soil Fertility, Yield, Quality, and Nutrient Uptake of Sweet Potato in Alfisols

Field experiments were conducted in Alfisols to study the effect of integrated use of lime, inorganic, and organic manures on soil health and sweet potato performance. Integrated use of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium and farmyard manure recorded a significantly higher tuber yield (18.7 Mg ha−1) followed by lime + farmyard manure + neem cake + green manure (17.7 Mg ha−1). Incorporation of organics and 100% nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium showed a yield response of 23%, 2%, and 10% in respect of farmyard manure, neem cake, and green manure over nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. A yield response of 12%, 10%, and 13% was observed due to incorporation of lime along with ½ nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium and organics (farmyard manure, neem cake, and green manure) over that of unlimed plots. Conjunctive use of organic manures along with balanced fertilizers and lime not only produces higher crop yields but also enhanced the efficiency of added nutrients and sustains the soil fertility.
Distinction between the weak hydrogen bond and the van der Waals interaction

The angular distributions of C–H···O interactions for different types of C–H groups show that the directionality decreases with decreasing C–H polarisation, but that it is still clearly recognisable for methyl groups; for C–H···H–C van der Waals contacts, in contrast, isotropic angular characteristics are observed.
A non-invasive technique to determine ion fluxes and ion densities in reactive and non-reactive pulsed plasmas

A non-invasive diagnostic technique for measurements of ion fluxes and ion densities in low-pressure pulsed radio-frequency (RF) discharges is described. The ion flux towards an electrode is determined from the change in electrode dc-bias in the plasma afterglow. The measurements in various gas mixtures (Ar, N2, Ar/C2H2 and Ar with nanoparticles) show an increase in ion flux with the applied RF power. Ion densities are estimated from the ion fluxes and the plasma density at the plasma–sheath boundary, assuming the afterglow electron temperature to be known. Very good agreement between the estimated ion densities and independently measured electron densities is found in the bulk of dust-free plasmas assuming an afterglow electron temperature of 0.05 eV for argon and argon/acetylene plasmas and 0.2 eV for the nitrogen plasma. In dusty plasmas, the ion density at the plasma–sheath boundary can be determined from the measured ion flux and assuming an afterglow electron temperature of 0.05 eV. For the estimation of ion density in the dusty plasma bulk, the ion density distribution, influenced by the negatively charged dust particles, has to be taken into account.
IMPACT OF POTASSIUM FERTILIZATION ON GROWTH, YIELD AND WATER PRODUCTIVITY OF CANOLA UNDER WATER STRESS CONDITION

A Field experiment was conducted at Etay El-Baroud Agricultural Research Station (30o 89'E, 30o 65'N, 5 m above sea level), ElBehera governorate, Egypt during 2017/2018 and 2018/2019 seasons to study the effect of three levels of crop evapotranspiration (ETc) and potassium applications on growth, yield, its components, some chemical constituents and irrigation water productivity (IWP) of canola (Brassica napus L.). The irrigation water treatments were: Full irrigation (I1:100%ETc), moderate stress (I2: 75% ETc) and high stress (I3: 50% ETc) in combination with potassium treatments (K0= 0, K1= 30 kg K2O/ha, K2= 45 kg K2O/ha, K3= 60 kg K2O/ha, K4= spraying 2% K2O, K5= 30 kg K2O/ha+ spraying 2% K2O and K6= 45 kg K2O/ha+ spraying 2% K2O). Results showed that seasonal applied water (AW) values for I1, I2 and I3 treatments were 4436, 3327 and 2218 m 3/ha and were 4560, 3420 and 2280 m3/ha in the first and second seasons, respectively. Results indicated that, increasing soil moisture stress up to 50% ETc significantly decreased shoot dry weight and leaf area/plant (in the second season only), chlorophyll a, b, carotenoids, relative water content (RWC), K+ concentration in leaves and seed oil content in both seasons. Also, plant height, number of pods/plant, 1000-seed weight, seed weight/plant and seed yield/ha showed significant reduction under the high stress treatment (I3). Whereas, proline content increased significantly when plants were under high stress treatment compared with full irrigation or moderate stress treatments. Potassium application resulted in a significant increase in all growth parameters, yield and physiological traits compared with untreated plants. Potassium applications of 45 or 60kg K2O/ha had superior effect on all attributes in this study. The interaction between high water stress (I3) and 45 kg K2O/ha + spraying 2% K2O treatment gave the highest values of proline content and irrigation water productivity (IWP) in both seasons. Results indicated that the lowest yield reductions (RYD %) were recorded from applying 45 kg K2O/ha + spraying by 2% K2O under moderate stress (I2) in the first and second seasons. Generally, decreasing soil moisture stress up to full irrigation with potassium application significantly enhanced most of growth characters, yield, its components and physiological traits of canola. The results of this study showed that the application of potassium at 45 kg K2O/ ha with spray by 2% of K2O under water stress (I3) improved irrigation water productivity (IWP) and gave the lowest reduction in seed yield under moderate stress (I2).
1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition of nitrilimines to 2,4-disubstituted-3H-1, 5-benzodiazepines: remarkable effect of C4-substituent on diastereoselectivity

The one-step synthesis of new bis[1,2,4-triazolo][4,3-a:3′,4′-d][1,5] benzodiazepines by way of completely regio- and diastereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrilimines to 2,4-dimethyl-3H-1,5-benzodiazepines is reported and a tentative rationalization for the observed diastereoselectivity, which underline the key effect of the C4-dipolarophile substituent, is proposed.
Colloidal and Physicochemical Characterization of Highly Magnetic O/W Magnetic Emulsions

Abstract A study of magnetic emulsion droplets is reported using various analytical and physico‐chemical techniques. The chemical composition of the droplets (i.e., the amount of iron oxide, organic phase, and surfactant) is determined using the combination of thermogravimetry, elemental analysis, and gas chromatography. The electrokinetic properties of the magnetic emulsion are investigated as a function of pH and ionic strength in order to estimate the surface potential (ψ0) and the shear‐plane position. The droplet surface potential and charge density are deduced from electrophoretic mobility measurements. The surface potential value obtained is in good agreement with one deduced from independent force measurements performed between emulsion droplets. The emulsion stability as a function of the continuous phase ionic strength is evaluated through the experimental determination of the critical coagulation concentration (CCC). A value for the Hamaker constant (A) that quantifies the van der Waals attraction between two emulsion droplets is deduced. In addition, the colloidal force between magnetic droplets is investigated as a function of pH and salt concentration and the surface potentials obtained are compared to the measured zeta potential and deduced diffuse potentials. The results from such an analysis are consistent with those reported in the literature.
Fertigação do algodoeiro utilizando efluente doméstico tratado

An experiment was conducted at the Universidade Federal Rural do Semi-arid in Mossoro, RN with the aim of evaluating the behavior of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. race latifolium Hatch) 8H cultivar, in terms of growth when irrigated with treated domestic sewage. The experimental design was in randomized blocks with split plots and in plots were tested dilutions of wastewater [25% - T1, 50% - T2, 75% - T3 and 100% of wastewater - T4 and supply water with mineral fertilizer - T5] in two soils of contrasting textures. Irrigation with wastewater significantly influenced the growth of cotton plants, the rate of emergence, the germination percentage, plant height, stem diameter and leaf area, growing linearly until an optimal dose, as the proportion of use of domestic effluent. The positive effect of the accumulation of nutrient in soil applied by fertigation on the variables studied is also highlighted. The irrigation with treated wastewater can offset conventional fertilization of cotton.
“Site Binding” of Ca2+ Ions to Polyacrylates in Water: A Molecular Dynamics Study of Coiling and Aggregation

The interaction of Ca2+ ions with short polyacrylate chains (NaPA) in water is investigated using molecular dynamics simulations, accelerated with the recently developed metadynamics algorithm. The much discussed “site binding” of calcium ions to these industrially relevant polymers is driven by an entropy gain as water molecules are released into the solution. At high NaPA concentrations, increased Ca2+−PA monomer ratios will not result in strong coiling of PA oligomers. This is due to the local rigidity induced by the binding of many Ca2+ ions to the polymer. Because the uncoiled state of the crowded chain obstructs formation of high Ca2+−COO- coordination numbers, interchain interactions will become favorable, and formation of PA aggregates can be expected. On the other hand, at low NaPA concentrations, introduction of Ca2+ ions to the solution leads to the formation of very stable coiled configurations, with local crystal-like structures, in which the Ca2+ ions cluster together. It is the sharing of c.
