Therefore, a series of on-farm field experiments were conducted to evaluate comparative performance of different nutrient management practices in <em>boro</em> rice production in south central coastal region of Bangladesh. The performance of high yielding rice varieties were tested with four fertilizer management options, viz. (i) use of Rice Crop Manager (RCM), (ii) Soil Test Based (STB) fertilizer application, (iii) BRRI Recommended Fertilizer (BRF) application, and (iv) Farmers' Fertilizer Practice (FFP). Fertilizer management practices and variety interacted significantly to influence yield components like panicle m<sup>−2</sup>, grains panicle<sup>−1</sup> and 1000-grain weight of rice. Similarly, grain yield of rice also significantly varied with the interaction of fertilizer management and rice varieties. Application of BRF produced maximum grain yield of <em>boro</em> rice. However, the grain yield produced with RCM was comparable with that of BRF management. The RCM involved lower fertilizer cost than that of BRF and FFP. Hence, the gross return and profit of rice obtained from RCM was similar with that in BRF. The cost dominant analysis confirmed that RCM was economic and profitable fertilizer management practices in southern Bangladesh.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100092,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Agrarian Science","volume":"16 4","pages":"Pages 466-475"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.aasci.2018.05.005","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75169755","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Epigenetics play a significant role in regulating gene expression and here, the recent significant advancements in plant epigenetics, from growth and development to stress management are being reviewed. The epigenetic-based programming in plants under biotic and abiotic stresses as well as during growth and development is carried out by methylation-demethylation, acetylation-deacetylation and small RNAs, which are involved in the regulation of gene expression without any change in the DNA sequences. Such review would be helpful to better understand the plants' epigenetics approaches under various stresses as well as for growth and developmental stages to enhance the plant tolerance and resistance against biotic and abiotic stresses and crop production by reprogramming gene regulation.

In parallel, the penetration of tested toxicant into Spirulina cells and the influence on cell ultrastructure by using electron microscopic method have been studied. The obtained results show that DDT easily penetrated Spirulina cells and caused partial destruction of organelles. According to obtained data, 10 ppm is acceptable concentration of DDT for Spirulina growing in polluted water. Finally, the model large-scale experiment in reservoir with volume 40 L for testing possibility of using Spirulina to clean artificially polluted water have been carried out. The obtained results have been shown that after 15 days of incubation Spirulina removes approximately 70% of DDT from polluted water.

The objective of this study was to determine the genetic diversity of passion fruit genotypes from major growing regions in Kenya using sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers. Twenty four SRAP primer combinations were screened using three passion fruit genotypes and only seven that displayed polymorphic and stable amplification profiles were used to analyze 22 genotypes. The seven primer combinations amplified a total of 931 clear bands with an average of 133 bands per primer pair, of which 610 (65.5%) bands were polymorphic. The similarity coefficients among the 22 passion fruit germplasms ranged from 0.51 to 1.0 with an average of 0.755. The 22 passion fruit genotypes were classified into two groups by cluster analysis using unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic mean (UPGMA) with 12% similarity. Shannon's diversity index was 0.0934 and Nei's gene diversity index was 0.1370 in the present study.
