Aqueous solution of garlic and allamanda tablet sprayed at 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:3, 1:4, 1:5 conc. increased seed germination by 45-60%, completely eliminated damping-off, seedling blight and tip over and increased seedling vigour by 22-50%. The tablets retained the similar range of action over aging up to 90 days. Both garlic and allamanda tablets displayed similar inhibitory action against damping-off and seedling bli...

..., okra, tomato, spinach, carrot and cauliflower, grown with canal, tubewell and sewage irrigation water, were assessed for their proximate (moisture, ash, protein and fiber) and heavy metal (Pb, Ni, Cu, Cd, Fe and Cr) contents. Significant differences were found for proximate composition of canal, tubewell and sewage water irrigated vegetables. The vegetables grown with tubewell water had higher moisture, ash and fiber contents compared with those grown with c...

Soymilk being potential source of protein was used as a carrier of pro- vitamin A. Carrot powder was blended in soya milk at three different concentrations levels 2%, 4% and 6% and packed in sterilized bottles. The product was kept at two different temperatures (ambient and refrigerated tempe...

Therefore, the determination of morphological characteristics for plant-pathogen may add knowledge of the taxonomic behavior of pathogen. The usage of various growth media is providing a useful pattern of the growth that can be utilized in determining the best possible control of late blight disease.

...vegetables (beetroot and carrot) at three different levels (3%, 5%, 7% w/w). A Texture Analyzer determined hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness. The difference among the treatments was analyzed using standard deviation and ANOVA (p ≤ 0.05). To evaluate the various samples, a focus group of twelve panelists on the same day of preparation using a 9-point hedonic scale for seven attributes: viscosity, airiness, graininess, consistency...

One hundred forty-five samples of different vegetables were collected and processed. 200 grams of each vegetable sample was centrifuged, followed by sedimentation and floatation to recover parasites eggs, cysts and larvae. A high prevalence of about 47.58% was described in this study. Coriander was the highest contaminated vegetable (51.42%), followed by mint (48.57%). The
