Micromyzus granotiae A.K. Ghosh, M.R. Ghosh & Raychaudhuri 1970
Micromyzus granotiae A.K. Ghosh, M.R. Ghosh & Raychaudhuri 1970 = Kaochiaoja arthraxonis (Takahashi 1921) We place Micromyzus granotiae, described from Garnotia sp. (?) in West Bengal, as a synonym of Kaochiaoja arthraxonis because it is clearly part of the same group, although it was described as dark brown in life with a dusky head and a coating of wax, whereas K. arthraxonis was described as shining dark brown with yellowish brown head. Apterae of Japanese populations on various Gramineae (e.g. Microstegium, Digitaria) currently regarded as K. arthraxonis were described as salmon pink to reddish brown in life, with a black head and dorsal abdominal patch (Miyazaki 1971, as K. pollinae). Further work is needed to establish whether or not this is all one variable species.Published as part of Victor, Eastop, F. & Blackman, Roger L., 2005, Some new synonyms in Aphididae (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha), pp. 1-36 in Zootaxa 1089 on page 15, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.27334
Micromyzus brachiariae A.K. Ghosh 1978
<i>Micromyzus brachiariae</i> A.K. Ghosh 1978 = <i>Pentalonia gavarri</i> Eastop 1967 <p> Specimens in the BMNH collection presumed to have been collected from <i>Brachiaria</i> sp. (although the host­plant is not explicitly stated) in India (Assam), and having the same data as those in the published description of <i>Micromyzus brachiariae</i>, show close agreement with <i>Pentalonia gavarri</i> Eastop, occurring on grasses in south­east Asia and Australia.</p>Published as part of <i>Victor, Eastop, F. & Blackman, Roger L., 2005, Some new synonyms in Aphididae (Hemiptera: Sternorrhyncha), pp. 1-36 in Zootaxa 1089</i> on page 15, DOI: <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/273344">10.5281/zenodo.273344</a>
Ghosh, the shadow lines, and the Indian-English novel
The prizewinning author of novels, nonfiction, and hybrid texts, Amitav Ghosh grew up in India and trained as an anthropologist. His works have been translated in over thirty languages. They cross and mix a number of genres, from science fiction to the historical novel, incorporating ethnohistory and travelogue and even recuperating dead languages. His subjects include climate change, postcolonial identities, translocation, migration, oceanic spaces, and the human interface with the environment
Effect of Arsenic on Photosynthesis, Growth and its Accumulation in the Tissues of Allium cepa (Onion)
Arsenic is a well known carcinogenic element, that can harm not only human health but, plant and bacteria as well. Replicated experiments confirmed that, Arsenic accumulates in the different tissues in different parts of the plant and, adversely affects the growth and productivity of the plants. It is a threat for millions of population in terms of health and food security both. Therefore, a pot experiment was designed and conducted to investigate the effect of arsenic on photosynthetic pigments, Chlorophyll-a and –b, growth behavior, and its accumulation in the tissues of different parts of onion plants (Allium cepa). Test plants were subjected to pot experiment under natural conditions. Four pots were prepared to grow onion plants, irrigated with equal volume of different Arsenic solution (NaAs3), 0.00 mg/l, 0.200mg/l, 0.600mg/l, and 0.800mg/l concentration with one pot for control respectively, throughout the experiments. Both chlorophyll-a and -b contents in onion leaf increased significantly with the increase of water arsenic concentrations. The highest chlorophyll-a (0.004847/g) and chlorophyll-b (0.006528/g) contents were estimated in the onion leaf irrigated with 0.800mg/l of Arsenic whereas, in control plant it was lowest (chl-a 0.002363/ and chl-b 0.004092/g). A high positive correlation was observed between water arsenic (R2= 0.897 and 0.963) & soil arsenic (R2= 0.926 and 0.919) with chlorophyll-a and chlorophyll-b respectively. High positive correlation was also observed even for onion growth verses soil arsenic and water arsenic (R2=0.994 and 0.968) and water Arsenic with leaf biomass (R2=0.973) respectively. However, no Arsenic accumulation was detected in the tissues of different parts of the onion plants suggesting that, arsenic (NaAs3) influenced the 40 K. Singh Sushant and A.K. Ghosh biochemistry of photosynthesis which ultimately resulted in the increase of onion growth and yield. Onion plants can be cultivated in the area where Arsenic containing water is being utilized for irrigating crops but, a chain of in-vitro studies are required to understand the biochemistry and mechanism that influenced growth and productivity of the onion plants.Technology, Policy and Managemen
ENTIRE FUNCTIONS SHARING POLYNOMIALS WITH THEIR DERIVATIVES
In this paper we study the uniqueness of entire functions sharing two polynomials with their derivatives. The results of the paper improve the corresponding results of Chang and Fang (Kodai Math.J. 25(2002), 309–320) and Lahiri-Ghosh(Present author) (Analysis ,Munich. 31(2011), 47–59)
First person – Arijita Ghosh
ABSTRACT
First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Journal of Cell Science, helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Arijita Ghosh is the first author on “Leucine-rich repeat-containing 8B protein is associated with the endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ leak in HEK293 cells”, published in Journal of Cell Science. Arijita is a PhD student in the laboratory of Amal Kanti Bera at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai, India, investigating the role of leucine-rich repeat-containing 8 proteins in cellular calcium homeostasis.</jats:p

Beyond national literatures: Empire and Amitav Ghosh
Scholarship on the writer Amitav Ghosh has addressed issues of nationalism, postcolonial identity, ecocriticism, testimony, subalternity, and historiography. But the idea of Ghosh as an Asian American author with a particular relationship to the United States and its national mythologies, has barely been considered. In this essay, I explore this neglected aspect of Ghosh’s œuvre by looking at the idea of America in his writing and by situating his work within what I term "the Bengali American grain". Reading his work alongside that of other Bengali American writers and arguing that it is more ambitious thematically and more anti-imperialistic, I probe Ghosh’s problematic relationship with the United States, asking how his hemispheric writing continues to extend and even alter the terrain often associated with Asian American literature
