Published: June 2021

Soil physico-chemical properties are an important phenomenon for sustainable crop production and maintenance of optimum soil health. Hence, a laboratory measurement was conducted with soil samples of three years long experimental field of the Department of Soil Science, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh to assess the changes in five selected soil physico-chemical properties viz. soil texture, bulk density, soil pH, total nitrogen and organic matter. The experiment was laid out in a split plot design with two water regimes (continuous flooding and alternate wetting & drying) in the main plots and five fertilizer treatments (N0 - control, N1- 140 kg N/ha as PU, N2- 104 kg N/ha as USG (2× 1.8 g/ 4 hills), N3 - 5 t CD + PU @ 140 kg N /ha on IPNS basis and N4- 5 t CD + USG (2× 1.8 g/ 4 hills @ 104 kg N/ha)) in the subplots under rice-rice cropping pattern with three replications. After three years, soil samples were collected at 0-5 and 5-10 cm soil depths for measuring bulk density and at 0-10 cm depth for other soil properties and analyzed. Results found that % sand, % silt, % clay, bulk density and soil pH was not changed significantly compared to initial status. Percentage of total nitrogen and organic matter was significantly affected by irrigation and fertilization. Total nitrogen (%) was higher in AWD whereas organic matter (%) was higher in CF practice. The highest total nitrogen (%) and organic matter (%) was found in N4 treatment in which USG was applied in combination with cowdung as organic manure. It can be suggested that N4 treatment was formed good combination for sustaining chemical properties of soil. Further long- term experimentation will be needed to know the changes in soil properties for sustainable crop production and improving soil health.

The objective of the study was to evaluate the growth and reproductive performances of Hilly Brown Bengal (HBB) goats of different generations and conducted at Naikhongchari Regional Station Research Farm of Bangladesh Livestock Research Institute. Goats were reared in a plastic slated floor under semi-intensive system and were allowed to graze for 6-7 hours per day. Animals were given a concentrate mixture containing 17% CP, 11 MJ ME/kg DM provided twice daily in the morning and evening at the rate of 1% of their body weight. All goats were kept separately according to sex and age groups to avoid random mating. Natural mating program was performed to improve the economically important traits. Goats were de-wormed and diping on regular intervals and only PPR vaccine was given at the age of 2 months. Data on productive, reproductive and disease incidence of goat were recorded regularly and were analyzed. Results showed that Kid Birth Weight of HBB goats were significantly (P<0.01) differ among generations. Birth weight of G3 (1.21±0.013 kg) was higher than G5, G4, G2 and G1 (1.11±0.01 kg). Goat body weight of 3, 6 and 9 months age were non-significant among generations. The age and weight at first conception were significantly (p<0.05) differ among generation. Age at first conception was lower of G4 (301.57±9.06 days) and higher of G1 (259.80±18.87 days) but body weight at first conception of G1 (12.23±0.47 kg) was higher and G4 was lower (10.65±0.52 kg). Age at first kidding, gestation length and kidding interval was not significant (P>.05) effect on generations. Parity had no significant (P>.05) effect on kid birth weight but significantly (p<0.01) differ of Kid litter weight and litter size. According to birth type single kid was highest birth weight (1.21±0.08 kg) than double kid followed by triplet and quadruplet. Mortality percentage of HBB kids at the age of 0-90 days were 13.08±0.23%. It may be concluded that kid birth weight, age and weight at first conception of HBB goat were significantly (P<.05) affected on generation but age at first kidding, gestation length and kidding interval were non significantly (P<.05) affected.

Salt-tolerant Boro rice response under the interaction of variety and urea fertilizer was assessed in the southern coastal region of Bangladesh for developing coastal agriculture in Bangladesh. A field experiment was carried out at the research field of Agriculture department, Noakhali Science and Technology University (NSTU), Noakhali-3814 in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with two varieties viz. BINA dhan-8, BRRI dhan-67 and three doses of urea viz. 250 kg/ ha., 150 kg/ ha. and 120 kg/ ha. were used as treatments where each treatment was replicated three times. Data were collected on plant height (cm), tiller/hill, grain/panicle, 1000 grain weight (g), grain yield (t/ha.), straw yield (t/ha.) and harvest index (%). All the parameters were influenced significantly by the interaction of variety and different doses of urea fertilizer and better performance was obtained from the variety BINA dhan-8 and the doses of 250 kg urea/ ha. Finally, the present study suggests that for obtaining higher yield salt-tolerant BINA dhan-8 variety may be cultivated with 250 kg urea/ ha. in the southern coastal region of Bangladesh.

The aim of this study was to investigate the nutritional and microbial quality of yoghurt from different districts of Bangladesh. Protein content was higher (4.56g/kg) in SB2 (sample Bogura-2), fat content was also higher (5.67g/kg) in SB3 (sample Bogura-3). The acidity found ranged from 0.77% to 0.98%, pH obtained ranged between 3.6 to 4.98 and total solid retained between 23.08 to 26.95 for all samples. Highest Total Viable count (TVC) value was found in SB2 (68.9×104±0.23 CFU/ml) and lowest value was observed in SJ2 (23.01×104±0.43 CFU/ml). No mold and yeast were found in the collected samples during study period that indicates all are follow hygiene procedure but all of the yogurt samples were contaminated with fewer amount (5.6±0.66 to 12.56±0.44 CFU/ml) of coliform. The mean value of acceptability score of yogurt sample was higher (99.2) in SB2 (sample Bogura-2) during the study period. Organoleptically, the overall quality of all yogurt samples was good. Considering the pH, acidity, total solids, protein, fat, carbohydrate and ash values for all yogurt samples collected from Bogura had better quality as compared to other samples. From the present study, it was found that all of the samples collected from Bogura district were much better quality compared to other samples in terms of nutritional, biochemical and microbial aspect. All of the samples were found in contaminated with lower amount of coliform so necessary actions should be taken in every step of processing, maturing and marketing to overcome this problem.

Published: June 2021

Background:Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex disorder of neuronal development which may cause lifelong disability. The etiology of ASD involves gene-environmental interaction. Calcium signal is crucial for neuronal communication and neuro-plasticity and phosphate is related to neural energy metabolism. Therefore, deficiency of these minerals may act as an environmental risk factor for the development of ASD.
Objective: To assess serum calcium and phosphate in children with ASD.
Methods: This cross-sectional comparative study was conducted in the Department of Physiology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University(BSMMU) Dhaka from March 2018 to February 2019. For this, 50 ASD children of both sex (age 3 to10 years) diagnosed by pediatric neurologist were included as ‘Study’ participants through ‘Parents Forum of differently abled children, Mohakhali, Dhaka’ and for comparison, age, BMI and sex matched 50 apparently healthy children were enrolled, as ‘Control’. Serum calcium and phosphate level of all children were estimated by colorimetric method. All data were expressed as mean±SD, range and percentage. For statistical analysis, Chi- Square test, Shapiro Wilk test and independent sample ‘t’ test was done, as applicable.
Results:The mean serum calcium was significantly (p<0.01) lower in ASD children compared to control, though the mean values were within normal reference range in both groups. However, hypophosphatemia was found in 4% of ASD children.
Conclusion:From this study, it may be concluded that ASD children was associated with lower serum calcium level and hypophosphatemia.Therefore, adequate dietary intake of calcium and phosphate is recommended for children with ASD.
