No full textChapter 14 of "Dynamics of Planktonic Primary Productivity in the Indian Ocean"Phytoplankton are the base of the food web, and their efficiency to capture carbon in the organic form via the process of photosynthesis determines the rate of primary productivity. Similar to many other species in the higher trophic levels, fish stocks are inherently dependent on primary productivity. This could be in the form of larval survival that determines the success of recruitment or in the form of providing food for adult fishes that takes up long migration to the breeding ground. The dynamics of phytoplankton distribution itself is connected to the met-ocean processes, including teleconnection to the processes far in the Indian Ocean or even in the Pacific Ocean. In this chapter, these linkages are described by using the fish catch landings as well as satellite remote sensing data to provide a holistic view of how fish catch may vary because of the combination of factors, including anthropogenic and natural.Not Availabl

No full textNot AvailableChloroplasts have evolved from photosynthetic cyanobacteria-like progenitors through endosymbiosis. The chloroplasts of present-day land plants have their own transcription and translation systems that show several similarities with prokaryotic organisms. A remarkable feature of the chloroplast translation system is the use of non-AUG start codons in the protein synthesis of certain genes that are evolutionarily conserved from Algae to angiosperms. However, the biological significance of such use of non-AUG codons is not fully understood. The present study was undertaken to unravel the significance of non-AUG start codons in vivo using the chloroplast genetic engineering approach. For this purpose, stable transplastomic tobacco plants expressing a reporter gene i.e. uidA (GUS) under four different start codons (AUG/UUG/GUG/CUG) were generated and β-glucuronidase (GUS) expression was compared. To investigate further the role of promoter sequences proximal to the start codon, uidA was expressed under two different chloroplast gene promoters psbA and psbC that use AUG and a non-AUG (GUG) start codons, respectively, and also showed significant differences in the DNA sequence surrounding the start codon. Further, to delineate the role of RNA editing that creates AUG start codon by editing non-AUG codons, if any, which is another important feature of the chloroplast transcription and translation system, transcripts were sequenced. In addition, a proteomic approach was used to identify the translation initiation site(s) of GUS and the N-terminal amino acid encoded when expressed under different non-AUG start codons. The results showed that chloroplasts use non-AUG start codons in combination with the translation initiation site as an additional layer of gene regulation to over-express proteins that are required at high levels due to their high rates of turnover.Not Availabl

खाद्य उत्पादों में पौष्टिक अनाजों का उपयोग कापफी तेजी से बढ़ा है, जिससे इनकी
लोकप्रियता व मांग में भी वृद्धि हुई है। मडुआ की पारंपरिक सामान्य प्रजातियों के
दाने लाल या भूरे रंग के होते हैं। इस कारण इससे बने घरेलू व व्यावसायिक उत्पाद
भी यह रंग लिये होते हैं, जो उपभोक्ताओं के एक वर्ग के मध्य इन उत्पादों की
स्वीकार्यता को कम करते हैं। इस बात को ध्यान में रखते हुए भाकृअनुप-विवेकानन्द
पर्वतीय कृषि अनुसंधान संस्थान, अल्मोड़ा द्वारा पर्वतीय क्षेत्रों के लिए सपेफद रंग
के दाने वाली किस्म वीएल मडुआ-382 का विकास किया गया है। इससे पर्वतीय
कृषकों की आय के साथ-साथ उपभोक्ताओं के वर्ग विशेष के मध्य इस पौष्टिक
अनाज की स्वीकार्यता में वृद्धि हो सकती है।ICAR - Khet
ALL INDIA NETWORK RESEARCH PROJECT ON TOBACCO Annual Report 2021-22
No full text1. Evolving location specific superior varieties/hybrids of different tobaccos.
2. Breeding tobacco varieties tolerant for biotic and abiotic stresses.
3. Evaluation and development of best-bet site specific agro-techniques for
enhancing the production efficiency and produce quality. 4. Development of location specific and cost-effective IPM modules for effective
management of pest and diseases and to minimise the pesticide residues in
tobacco.
5. Screening and identification of genotypes having traits of commercial
importance and non-conventional uses.
6. Comparative evaluation of tobacco and non-tobacco based cropping systems
that are remunerative and sustainable.India is the second largest producer and exporter of tobacco after China and Brazil
respectively. It is grown in an area of 0.42 M ha producing 758 M kg of Tobacco. Tobacco
contributes ~ Rs. 28,000 crores to the National exchequer in terms of excise revenue
(~22,000 crores) and export earning (~6000 crores). Different tobacco types such as
Flue Cured Virginia (FCV), Burley, Oriental, Bidi, Natu/ Pikka, Chewing and Rustica are
grown under diverse agro - climatic conditions. To address the location specific needs
of different tobacco types, the All India Coordinated Project on Tobacco was
established by Indian Council of Agricultural Research during 1970 - 71 with the
headquarters of the Coordinating unit at Anand (Gujarat). The headquarters was
subsequently shifted to ICAR - CTRI, Rajahmundry, Andhra Pradesh on 16 - 08 - 1998.
Further, the AICRP on Tobacco was renamed as All India Network Research Project on
Tobacco and kept under the administrative control of the Director, ICAR - CTRI,
Rajahmundry. A total of numbers of 14 centres (3 Main centres, 7 sub - centres and 4
voluntary centres) are functioning at present.
The three main network centres of AINPT are located at Rajahmundry, Shivamogga
and Anand; the seven sub - centres at Nipani, Nandyal, Berhampur, Araul, Dinhata,
Guntur and Hunsur. The four voluntary centers of AINPT are functioning at Ladol,
Jeelugumilli, Kandukur and Vedasandur. The centres at Rajahmundry, Guntur, Hunsur
and Dinhata are functioning under the administrative control of ICAR - Central Tobacco
Research Institute (ICAR - CTRI), Rajahmundry. Anand, Shivamogga, Nipani, Nandyal,
Berhampur and Araul centres are under the administrative control of respective
Universities, viz., Anand Agricultural University, Anand; University of Horticulture and
Agricultural Sciences, Shivamogga; University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad;
Acharya NG Ranga Agricultural University, Guntur; Odisha University of Agriculture
and Technology, Bhubaneswar and Chandra Sekhar Azad University of Agriculture
and Technology, Kanpur, respectively (Table 1). The existing Scientific, Technical,
Administrative and Supporting staff strength was 16, 21, 03 and 01, respectively. AINPT
Co - ordination Unit at Rajahmundry co - ordinates activities of all the centres and
monitors the research programmes through four Project Investigators located at
ICAR - CTRI, Rajahmundry. It also co - ordinates resource activities of different centres
and also with ICAR on all the administrative, financial and issues related to the
coordinating centres and ensure implementation of all the mandated programmes as
per the guidelines of ICAR.ICAR-CTRI, Rajahmundry (Andhra Pradesh
