Abstract: Every tradition in Indonesia has values, especially the religious value. Similarly, the Sasak their known as people who ethnically diverse have variety traditions which can be used for educational purposes it will be very useful to preserve and transferring good things and religious values to the younger generations. For example, the tradition of Memaos or read the manuscript of such palm leaves can be done by several people in Lombok. See that Sasak is the majority of Moslem, Memaos tradition or palm leaves reading is done on certain occasions, usually in the great days of Moslem. This paper aims to describe how the historical background of Memaos tradition in Lombok Sasak ethnic. How are the aspects of religious education in the Memaos tradition in Lombok Sasak ethnic, especially when it is used as a tool to pass on religious values to the younger generation? Those are some of the problems outlined in this paper. And the results show that Memaos appeared with the arrival of the Moslemic religion Lombok island and Memaos is able to be an instrumental in beguethed religious values as the actualization media of appreciation the values of Moslem
Abstrak: Keragaman budaya yang dimiliki Indonesia menjadikan sebuah daya tarik tersendiri yang membedakannya dengan negara lain. Hal ini merupakan warisan turun temurun dari para leluhur yang memiliki begitu banyak nilai-nilai di dalamnya. Keragaman budaya yang ada di Indonesia telah melahirkan pula keragaman wujud-wujud kebudayaan. Diantaranya adalah adat istiadat, upacara-upacara adat dan juga tradisi yang masih tetap dilestarikan oleh etnik-etnik di Indonesia. Setiap tradisi di Indonesia memiliki nilai-nilai yang terkandung di dalamnya, terutama nilai religius. Demikian pula dengan masyarakat sasak yang dikenal sebagai masyarakat yang dari segi etnis yang cukup beragam memiliki beraneka ragam tradisi yang bila dimanfaatkan untuk kepentingan pendidikan maka akan sangat berguna untuk dijadikan sebagai alat untuk melestarikan serta mentransper hal-hal baik maupun nilai religius kepada generasi muda. Sebagai contoh yakni tradisi memaos atau membaca naskah lontar yang bisa dilakukan oleh beberapa orang pada suku sasak Lombok. Mengingat suku sasak mayoritas beragama Islam maka tradisi Memaos atau membaca lontar ini dilakukan pada acara-acara tertentu, biasanya pada hari-hari besar Islam. Makalah ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan bagaimana sejarah latar belakang munculnya tradisi Memaos pada suku Sasak Lombok? Bagaimana aspek pendidikan religius pada tradisi Memaos pada masyarakat suku Sasak Lombok, terutama ketika ia digunakan sebagai alat untuk mewariskan nilai religius bagi generasi muda? Itulah beberapa persoalan yang coba diuraikan dalam tulisan ini. Dan hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa memaos muncul seiring dengan masuknya agama Islam di pulau Lombok dan Memaos mampu menjadi instrument dalam mewariskan nilai-nilai religius serta sebagai media aktualisasi penghayatan nilai-nilai keislaman.

The all-Embracing Light of Divine Grace in the Theory and Practice of the Sufi Brotherhood of Chishti
Authors: Taneeva-Salomatshaeva Lola Z.
Published: August 2018

Abstract: the author, on the basis of the Philosophical-Sufi studies of medieval Muslim scholars, the achievements of modern theoretical thought and independent argumentation, reveals the Sufi understanding of The Existence of God and the Way to Him. The source of the material was, first of all, the treatises of Indian Islamic thinkers written in Farsi: the work of Ali ibn Uthman al-Hudjwiri Kashf al-Mahdzhub li Abrar al-Kulub («Disclosure of the hidden behind the veil for those who have knowledge in the Mystery of Hearts») and the lithographic edition of Fava’eed al-Fouad «Useful [knowledge] for the Heart», owned by the Sheikh Nizamuddin Awliya – one of the most significant Sufi saints of the Order of Chishti. It is convincingly proven, how, using the words-labels, for example, Light and Heart and their connotations (Anwar – plural Absolute Light, Nur – Light, and also refracted or reflected Ray), one can come to the understanding that Nur is Light, Ray, Shine and Allah Himself. Thus, the creators of the monuments of medieval writing in the countries of the Muslim East asserted the religious paradigm according to which, thanks to the Unity of the Existence (vahdat al-wujud), the Light of Divine Grace embraces the entire universe: from the simple to the complex, and from it to the heart of the person who has gone through all the ways of perfection.
Gravitational Weakening of Seismic Origin as a Driving Mechanism of Some Astronomical Anomalies
Authors: Rivera Paul C.
Published: August 2018

The anomalous increase of the astronomical unit, the mysterious secular increase of the lunar eccentricity and the flyby anomaly are important issues of modern astronomy. This study aims to determine the effect of earthquakes on the origin of these anomalies. Based on conventional physics, we found the existence of earthquake-induced gravitational weakening within the earth-moon-sun system and beyond. New equations of gravitation, including time dilation, are introduced that can explain the anomalous increase of the astronomical unit and the lunar orbit. A modified equation that includes the effect of massive quakes also explains the anomalous increase of the lunar eccentricity. Furthermore, the results of the present study can explain the flyby and Pioneer anomalies experienced by spacecraft during gravity assisted maneuvers. A modification of the 3rd Law of Kepler is also presented. Implications on the elliptic orbit of the earth, its reduced velocity and the occurrence of leap years are also discussed. Using the seismic-induced gravitational weakening model, probable trigger mechanisms of the faint young sun paradox and the Allais effect are also presented. An estimate of the age of the earth based on the observed values of the Hubble parameter and the USGS earthquake data for the past century is also presented. A new model of the seismic-driven expanding universe and a new equation to determine the expansion rate of galaxies and the universe is also proposed. The sudden earth’s retreat due to gravitational weakening and its implication on anomalous astronomical refraction and flight risk at night especially near the equatorial region, and its effect on the abrupt satellite orbital decay, spin and drift are also discussed. This study may also shed light on the occurrence of sinkholes and massive landslides. Finally, this study proposes a new equation that can explain the observed changes in the fine structure constant.

Authors: Kerr Sandy , Watts Laura , Brennan Ruth E , Howell Rhys , Graziano Marcello , O’Hagan Anne Marie , van der Horst Dan , Weir Stephanie , Wright Glen , Wynne Brian
Published: August 2018

The development of the Marine Renewable Energy (MRE)industry is part of the EC Blue Growth Strategy. It brings together a rangeof relationships across people, sea, and energy, from developers to localcommunities and policymakers. This calls for diverse approaches, movingbeyond an oppositional mindset to one that can establish an inclusive communityaround MRE development. Ownership of the marine environmentis a legal issue, but MRE devices operate within a cultural and emotional sense of place. Early, sustained community engagement and advocacy is crucialto developing an industry whose impacts are likely to be felt before itssocial benefits materialise. Crucially, local communities could be supportedby Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) research in creating new mythologiesand imaginaries through which MRE technologies become an integralpart of their culture, as well as part of their biophysical environment. Acomplex physical, political, and legal environment provides the context forthese new marine energy technologies, and its development provides opportunitiesfor SSH research to address issues around the sea and to integrateinto the design of new marine energy seascapes.
Can Mobile Health Improve Depression Treatment Access and Adherence Among Rural Indian Women? A Qualitative Study
Authors: Bhat Amritha , Goud Ramakrishna , Pradeep Johnson , Jayaram Geetha , Radhakrishnan Rajiv , Srinivasan Krishnamachari
Published: August 2018

Introduction: Low rates of follow up with mental health treatments, and medication non-adherence are common among patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), more so in low-middle income countries (LMIC). While mobile mental health has the potential to address this problem in resource-poor settings, the feasibility and acceptability of its use in rural women is unknown. We aimed to explore barriers to access and adherence to mental health treatment, and the feasibility of using mobile health to address these barriers among women with MDD in rural south India. Methods: Six focus groups were conducted among women with MDD (n=69) seeking care at a rural community health center in South India. Discussion centered on barriers to mental health treatment access and adherence and attitudes toward use of technology in addressing these barriers. We transcribed the discussions and analyzed them using qualitative analysis software. Results: Reasons for non-adherence were: transcultural explanatory model of illness; structural, financial and social barriers to access, and medication side-effects. Women were unenthusiastic about mobile health solutions due to illiteracy, lack of family support, unfamiliarity with use of mobile devices, lack of access to mobile phones and preference for in-person clinical consultation. Conclusions: This qualitative study examines the acceptability of mobile-mental health as a strategy to address barriers to depression treatment access and adherence among women in a rural setting. There are several barriers to adoption of mobile mental health technology in LMIC. It is important to address these barriers before implementing mobile health based solutions.
Asymmetric Exchange Rate Exposure - Research in Southeast Asian Countries

Published: August 2018

The study aims to analyse the impact of exchange rate exposure on stock returns in six countries representative of Southeast Asia, including Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam from 2009 to 2014. Both nominal and real exchange rates are taken into account for evaluating exchange rate fluctuations via panel data. In order to achieve this goal, a panel regressive estimation approach is proposed in which a GLS model is firstly used to treat heteroscedasticity in the panel data and, then, a GMM estimator is employed to ensure the consistency of the estimates. The results point out that the exchange rate exposure of these countries is asymmetric. At market level, for a rise in the exchange rate (or local currency depreciates), the average stock returns tend to decrease. However, due to the favourable impact of currency depreciation on the net export position, the reduction speed of stock returns is faster than the rising speed of the exchange rate.

Published: August 2018

The article considers the effect of moisture shortage in soil on formation of winter wheat root system. According to root system development (number, volume and dry weight of roots) there have been identified the varieties ‘Krasa Dona’, ‘Zhavoronok’, ‘Bonus’, ‘Kazachka’, ‘Luchezar’, ‘Shef’, ‘Polina’ and the lines ‘1120/13’, ‘1377/06’ that possess high indexes in all trials. The estimation of drought tolerance on growth power of germinal roots was carried out on winter wheat seeds, germinated in rolls on a completely nutrient mixture ‘Knopa’. The largest increase of germinal roots was found on the samples ‘Polina’ (on 14.6 cm), ‘134/11’ (on 13.9 cm), ‘Asket’ (on 13.8 cm), ‘1430/12’ (on 13.6 cm), ‘110/11’ and ‘1120/13’ (on 13.2 cm), ‘Krasa Dona’ (on 13.0 cm). Drought tolerance has been determined according to the degree of seed germination on osmotic sucrose solution (16 atm). The analyzed samples have been divided into the following groups: the 1-st group – highly tolerant samples (10), the 2-d group – average tolerant samples (4), the 3-d group – not tolerant samples (6). The assessment of heat resistance showed that 13 samples from 20 analyzed ones belong to the 1-st group of highly heat resistant; 7 samples belong to average resistant. To characterize various indexes of plant resistance and their correlation there have been used a method of determining the complex resistance index of germinating seeds. The samples ‘Asket’ (253.4 r. u.), ‘1377/06’ (255.4 r. u.), ‘Kazachka’ (252.1 r. u.), ‘Shef’ (245.0 r. u.), ‘Krasa Dona’ (244.3 r. u.) and ‘Polina’ (240.0 r. u.) are characterized with high complex resistance index of germinating seeds. The samples ‘Asket’, ‘1237/13’, ‘Krasa Dona’, ‘260/09’, ‘Kazachka’, ‘1377/06’ showed high degree of complex drought tolerance (from 31 to 43%).

Published: August 2018

The article presents a short review of emmer wheat distribution throughout the whole world and the regions of Russia. The grain of emmer wheat is found rich in microelements, vitamins, nondispensible amino-acids and other useful substances. The article considers the two-year study results (2016, 2017) of the trials with emmer wheat on the central experimental plot of the Kurgansk RIA. Some separate elements of cultivation technologies of the emmer wheat variety ‘Gremme’ and the spring wheat variety ‘Zauralochka’ have been developed in three-year crop and fallow rotation on the extensive and intensive backgrounds. The variety ‘Gremme’ produced 3.4 t/ha being the largest yield during the trials, the spring wheat variety ‘Zauralochka’ gave only 2.98 t/ha. In the competitive variety-testing we studied comparative productivity of emmer wheat varieties ‘Gremme’ and ‘Runo’ with the spring wheat varieties ‘Tertsiya’ and ‘Iren’. The variety ‘Runo’ was found highly tolerant to powdery mildew, brown and stem rust, and grown without fertilizers and fungicides it was the most productive variety with 2.87 t/ha compared with the varieties ‘Tertsiya’, ‘Iren’ and ‘Gremme’ with 1.17, 1.26 and 1.72 t/ha respectively. According to the baking qualities, emmer wheat yielded to the spring wheat varieties. At the same time there is high protein content (17.5%) in the variety ‘Runo’. The preliminary results of the study show that the unhulled variety ‘Runo’ in the organic farming system claims to play a leading role in obtaining an environmentally clean grain rich in the necessary elements of nutrition.

Hablumminannas: Nilai-Nilai Keislaman dan Praktiknya Dalam Pergaulan Antar Ikhwan dan Akhwat Pada Organisasi Forum Lingkar Pena Makassar
Authors: Al Isra Andi Batara
Published: August 2018

Forum Lingkar Pena (FLP) Makassar is one of the organizations with Islam as its ideology. Its members come from various organization, and therefore this has influenced their perception on the practice of Islamic values in the context of hablumminannas. This article deals with how Islamic values are applied in the every day life of members of FLP and how members of FLP manage to deal with this. It was found that their understanding in the application of Islamic values regarding human relations vary, particularly in regard to the interaction between men (ikhwan) and women (akhwat). The variety of understanding is debated and influences the relation between members of FLP. Those whose background are from WahdahIslamiyahand Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia tend to be rigidly reacted to these differences, while others are more moderate. Some resists and follow the majority and still try to make a difference; others are disappointed, but keep themselves in FLP to respect others’ perception without being active in FLP activities; the rests are resisted and left FLP as a result. However, such differences are common as long as they have the basis of their responsesince FLP promotes unity and harmony among its members. Despite the fact, they basically have the same understanding on the basic principle on the aspects that related to hablumminannas, they are different in the way to practice them, such as, among others, shaking hand, being alone between ikhwan and akhwat, riding between ikhwanandakhwat, using hijab to separate between ikhwan and akhwat. It was argued in this article that their understanding in the application of Islamic values in the interaction between ikhwan and akhwat is greatly influenced by their background and the circumstances.
Antara Ideal dan Praktek: Transformasi Spiritual Anggota Perempuan Berdasarkan Nilai-Nilai Keperempuanan Wahdah Islamiyah
Authors: Aswah Syarifah Raodatul
Published: August 2018

Wahdah Islamiyah (WI) is a community organization (ormas) based in Makassar under the aupices of Yayasan Pesantren Wahdah Islamiyah (YPWI). Members of WI are the followers of Salafi, a social movement which tries to practice Islamic values according to the understanding of As-Salaf As-Shalih. While members of WI consists of men and women, this article is focused on how female members of WI practice the ideal values of womenhood set by WI in the every day life. The research findings indicates that members of WI consist of three categories, namely: new members, teachers (murabbi), and administrative staff of its Lembaga Muslimah WI. The value of womenhood is set by the organization, and is classified into three, namely how to dress properly, how women behaves towards the opposite sex, and how ‘to become a wife/mother’.  The application of such values is not always syncronised with the ideal ones, depending on their level of membership and which value and which condition faced by the members. While new members tend to have a space for negotiation; murabbi is more advance than new members in the practice of womenhood values, which can be seen from how they dress (ber-hijab) and how they interact with the opposite sex; staff of Lembaga Muslimah WI is focused on how to practice such values in relation to how ‘to become a wife/mother’. Thus, women transform themselves spiritually on the basis of womenhood values as they become part of the organization and the level of their membership.

Published: August 2018

Historical literature on portal hypertension is mainly focused on the contemporary advances
in therapeutic methods, especially surgical ones. However, it seems that the origin of the
human knowledge on the portal system, its association with the caval system, obstructive
pathologies in this system and the gastrointestinal bleeding due to hepatic diseases might be
much older than previously believed.
Avicenna provided a detailed anatomy of the portal venous system and its feeding branches
in the Canon of Medicine. Soddat al-Kabed va al-Masarigha (liver and mesenteric occlusion)
is also a disease presented by Avicenna with clinical, etiological and therapeutic descriptions suggesting the fact that Soddat al-Kabed va al-Masarigha has multiple similarities
with the currently identified concept of “portal hypertension”.
He presented sense of heaviness in the liver area with or without mild pain, anemia, pale and
inappropriate body color, and loose stool which can be complicated with ascites, infection,
fever and abdominal pain as clinical manifestations of this disease. He has also suggested
therapeutic approaches including laxative and diuretic herbs to help excreting the obstructive
material into stool or urine.

‘CP 09‐1430’ (Reg. No. CV‐178; PI 686940) sugarcane (a complex hybrid of Saccharum spp.) was developed and released (6 June 2016) through cooperative research conducted by the USDA–ARS Sugarcane Field Station, Canal Point, the University of Florida, and the Florida Sugarcane League, Inc., for use on organic muck soils. The clone results from CP cross #06‐0576 (CPCL 00‐6756 × CP 01‐2390) and possesses the following agronomic traits: high cane and sucrose yields, high economic index, and acceptable commercial recoverable sucrose on muck soils. It germinates well, particularly under wet planting conditions. Results of replicated trials on muck soils (2012, five locations; 2013, two locations) included 19 total harvests for the three crop stages. Yield comparisons with check cultivars (‘CP 72‐2086’, ‘CP 78‐1628’, and ‘CP 89‐2143’) indicated CP 09‐1430 had significantly higher means than CP 89‐2143 (P = 0.10) for the following: stalk weight (1.38 kg stalk−1), second ratoon cane yield (129.4 Mg ha−1), mean cane yield of three crops (146.4 Mg ha−1), sugar yield (plant cane [21.9 Mg ha−1], second ratoon [13.1 Mg ha−1], and overall mean for the three crop harvests [17.6 Mg ha−1]); and the economic index (US$3137 ha−1). CP 09‐1430 is susceptible to brown rust, scald, and ratoon stunting disease and is moderately resistant to orange rust, smut, and Sugarcane yellow leaf virus, with full resistance to mosaic. It is moderately resistant to freezing temperatures.

Background: Gum Arabic (GA) is a water-soluble dietary fiber, indigestible to both humans and animals. While GA currently does not have any therapeutic potential, it has nutritional value and some effects on metabolism of glucose and lipids. Thus, the aim of this study is to assess the effect of GA on serum level of glucose, lipids, and the BMI in type 2 diabetic patients.Methods: A double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial took place at Academy Charity Teaching Hospital (ACTH) in Sudan between August 2014 to February 2015. The trial was conducted in type 2 diabetic patients who were on regular oral hypoglycemic drugs and had HbA1C ≥ 6.5%. Patients excluded from the study included those on insulin, any patient with a metabolic or gastrointestinal disease, and any patient with history of drug addiction and alcoholism. Other patients excluded were patients who had previous allergic reactions to GA in addition to patients who were pregnant or planned for conception within 6 months. 120 patients were invited to participate in this trial. 100 patients gave consent and were randomized to GA and placebo groups. The GA group was given 30 g of Acacia Senegaland the placebo group was given 5 g of placebo daily for 3 months. The outcomes assessed were primarily the effect of GA on glucose levels in addition to the effects on levels of lipids and the BMI in type 2 diabetic patients.Results: The GA group showed significant reduction in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and HbA1c (P<0.05) within the GA group. Moreover, GA supplementation improved lipid profiles; decreased LDL-Cholesterol by 5.95%, total Cholesterol by 8.28% and triglyceride by 10.95% from baseline levels. HDL-Cholesterol showed significant increase by 19.89% within GA group (P<0.05), BMI was decreased significantly by 2.06% (95% CI: −0.98; −0.16), P<0.05).Conclusions: Gum Arabic is a dietary supplement for improving nutrition of type 2 diabetic patients; it has demonstrated a good effect on improving their poor glycemic control. It has also shown improvement in the levels of the lipids and the BMI. Further studies are needed in obese and pre-diabetic patients to evaluate GA therapeutic potentials. Keywords: Gum Arabic, Diabetes Mellitus type 2, Lipid profiles, Fasting Plasma Glucose, Dietary Fibers, HbA1c

The experiment was carried out during the period from June 2016 to January, 2017 at the Plant Biotechnology Laboratory, Department of Horticulture, Patuakhali Science and Technology University (PSTU) for in vitro regeneration of sweet potato. In this study, the nodal segment explants and different combinations of growth regulators were used for in vitro regeneration of sweet potato. BAP (6-benzylamino purine) and KIN (Kinetin) were used for in vitro shoot regeneration and IBA (Indole-6- Butyric Acid) with NAA (Naphthalene Acetic Acid) were used for in vitro root regeneration. The highest percentage of shoot initiation (91.30), the minimum number of days (9.00) for shoot initiation, the highest number of shoot/plantlet (11.00) and the highest shoot length (4.38 cm) was observed when nodal segment explants cultured on MS medium supplemented with BAP 1.5 mg/L + KIN 0.1 mg/L. On the other hand, the highest root initiation percentage (94.12), the minimum number of days (6.00) for root initiation, the highest number of root/plantlet (9.33) and the highest root length (11.13 cm) was observed in the MS medium supplemented with IBA 0.5 mg/L + NAA 0.1 mg/L. Regenerated plantlets were acclimatized for 5 days and adopted in soil by 6-7 days of transplantation.J. Bangladesh Agril. Univ. 16(2): 178-181, August 2018

Published: August 2018

Maize is seriously affected by different viruses like Maize Dwarf Mosaic Virus (MDMV) and Maize Chlorotic Dwarf Virus (MCDV) throughout the world. In Bangladesh, no genotype has been identified yet as a source of resistant gene against MDMV and MCDV. The study was carried out with the objective to screen nine maize genotypes carrying Wsm gene using three sets of Single Sequence Repeat (SSR) marker. Maize plants were inoculated with viruses. Symptoms were scored at 7, 10 and 14 dpi (days post inoculation) to calculate infection percentage and Area Under Disease Progress Curve (AUDPC). The molecular result indicated that BHM-7, BHM-5, V-92, Uttaran and Duranta carried Wsm gene, but according to pathological test, functional resistance was observed for only BHM-7, V-92 and Uttaran on the basis of infection percentage and AUDPC score. BHM-7 (BARI Hybrid Maize 7) was noticed as the best one for showing resistance against MDMV and carrying Wsm gene. No genotype was found to govern resistance against MCDV.J. Bangladesh Agril.

Published: August 2018

Atmospheric particulate matter (PM) samples (both PM10 and PM2.5) were collected simultaneously from Midland Power Company Limited at Ashuganj, in Brahmanbaria to monitor the seasonal fluctuations of particulate matter and black carbon (BC) concentrations from air samples. Total eight samples were collected from January 2016 to December 2017 using two Air Metrics MiniVol samplers and the quantity of PM2.5 and PM10 was detected by weighing the filters before and after exposure. The concentration of PM (PM2.5 and PM10) and BC were analyzed at the laboratory of Chemistry Division, Atomic Energy Centre, Dhaka. The black carbon concentration from both PM2.5 and PM10 samples were also determined by reflectance measurement. The concentrations of PM2.5 varied from 12.2–145 μgm−3 where mean value was 67.09 μgm−3. The mean concentration of PM10 was 103.64 μgm−3 whereas the concentration ranged from 20.5–220 μgm−3. The ratios of PM2.5/PM10 fluctuated during different seasons, winter showed higher concentration and summer showed relatively lower concentration for both PM2.5 and PM10. Atmospheric dispersion due to increased wind speeds and wider mixing layer heights are recognized to be responsible for the lower PM concentrations in warmer months. The concentrations of BC in PM2.5 also varied from 2.44–33.4 μgm−3 and BC in PM10 varied from 4.51–57.2 μgm−3, respectively. The concentrations of particulate matter exceeded the Bangladesh National Ambient Air Quality Standard.J. Bangladesh Agril. Univ. 16(2): 232-236, August 2018
Differential role of spermine and thermospermine in Arabidopsis thaliana in response to abiotic stresses

Published: August 2018

Polyamines (PA) are small organic polycations found in all living organisms. Putrescine (Put), spermidine (Spd), spermine (Spm) and thermospermine (T-Spm) are the most abundant PAs in plants. Of the polyamines (PAs) plant contains at least two types of tetraamines; spermine (Spm) and thermospermine (T-Spm) and they seem to have different functions in plants. The experiment was conducted to eludicate the stress responsive roles of Spm and T-Spm using wild ecotype (Col-0) and three different knockout mutants (spms, acl5 and spms/acl5) of Arabidopsis, differing in the amount of spermine and thermospermine content. First exogenous pretreatment of both tetraamines showed their different effects on plant phenotype including root and shoot length, cholorophyll content both under normal and salt stressed condition. The effect of exogenous T-Spm was more effective than Spm in plant growth and stress tolerance. The mutants varying in endogenous tetraamines content were also found to be different in response to stress (salt, osmotic and ionic) condition. Growth inhibition of spms mutant seedlings was minimum in compare to other mutants and wild type, probably due to higher amount of T-Spm content. Further to differentiate the tissue specific expression of tetraamines, histochemical GUS assay was performed using SPMS and ACL5 promoter:: GUS transgenic plants and the results indicate that the two tetraamines; spermine and thermospermine may play some different and specific role in respect to tissue specificity and stress responses.J.
