Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are the living micro-organisms which colonize the rhizosphere or the interior of the plant or promotes growth by increasing the supply or availability of primary nutrients to the host plant when... more
An efficient protocol of shoot organogenesis and plant regeneration from internode derived callus has been developed for Capsicum annuum. Optimal callus was developed from internodal segments on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium... more
Thirty-five inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers were used to analyze the genetic variation in Cymbidium spp. High number of polymorphic bands (217) with overall 90 % of polymorphism at inter-specific level was observed. Cumulative... more
Factors affecting in vitro propagation were evaluated for Ceropegia attenuata Hook., an endemic and endangered plant having ornamental potential but a limited reproductive capacity. Rapid shoot multiplication from nodal explants was... more
Analyses on biological activities of Gnetum gnemon were done to determine the total phenolic and antioxidants of the plant. Four parts of G. gnemon were used in this study, which were leaf, bark, twig, and seeds of the plant. All parts... more
Expression condition for maximum recovery of recombinant Apple chlorotic leaf spot virus (ACLSV) coat protein was standardized. The in vitro expressed fusion protein with 6xHis tag (~43 Kd) was purified from inclusion bodies and used as... more
Chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) is one of the most important vegetable as well as spice crops grown worldwide for its wide usage. Production of chilli is profoundly affected by anthracnose disease which is one of the most serious and... more
“Infection of Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) in different citrus orchards of New Delhi was detected by direct antigen coated-ELISA and RT-PCR. Sweet orange (Citrus sinensis) orchards were found to be susceptible to CTV with estimated disease... more
Kiwifruits have limited shelf life under ambient conditions. However, it is necessary to extend its life so as to make it available for longer time in the market and to make it commercial fruits in India. Hence, the present study was... more
