It is grown for the domestic market under both rains fed and irrigated conditions. Due to the high demand for tomato in the domestic market and for processing, farmers have extensively adopted high yielding varieties and modern technologies like greenhouse production to ensure year round production and increase production. Intensive tomato cultivation in India has resulted in build-up of soil borne diseases, especially root knot nematodes. Various bio-control agents’ viz. Trichoderma virde Paecilomyces lilacinus and Beauvaria bassiana were used for experimental purpose. The result showed that Trichoderma virde was very effective for the management of rootknot namatode followed by Paecilomyces lilacinus and Beauvaria bassiana respectively. Maximum growth parameters {shoot length (58.25cm), root-length (19.75cm), fresh shoot weight (15.37g), fresh root weight (2.37g) and number of fruits (2.25)} were observed in Trichoderma virde followed by P.lilacinus {shoot length (53.00cm), root-length (13.00cm), fresh shoot weight (11.75g), fresh root weight (2.12g) and number of fruits (1.7)} and Beauvaria bassiana {shoot length (49.75cm), root length (8.75cm), fresh shoot weight (9.25g), fresh root weight (1.25g) and number of root-knot was noted in T. viride (17.25), P. lilacinus (18.50) and B. bassiana (24.50) respectively).

Water is needed to ensure food security, feed livestock, and take up industrial production and to conserve the environment. Water scarcity involves water stress, water shortage or deficits, and water crisis. This may be due to both nature and humans. Main factors that contribute to this issue include poor management of resources, lack of government attention, awareness and anthropogenic waste. The increased value of solid wastes and other hazardous waste in water systems such as rivers, ponds, lakes and canals also heavily pollute the water quality. Government has to take stringent steps for the protection of natural resources because human being is dependent on environment for every basic needs and life is beyond imagination without natural resource like water.","PeriodicalId":11960,"journal":{"name":"ESSENCE International Journal for Environmental Rehabilitation and Conservation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77545653","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rapid changes in the modern world has caused the Higher Education System to face overabundance of challenges. Therefore, the training of more eager and thoughtful individuals in interdisciplinary fields is vital. Research and exploration to figure out effective teaching and learning methods are one of the most important necessities in the modern educational systems. Professors have a determining role in training eager and thoughtful individuals. Universities and colleges are the places where new ideas sprout; roots strike deep and grows tall and sturdy. These places embrace the entire universe of knowledge. These are the spaces where creative minds converge, interact with each other and construct visions for noble realities.

Though the surface of the earth is mostly consists of water, only a small part of it is usable, which makes this resource very limited. This precious and limited resource, therefore, must be used with prudence. As water is required for different purposes, the suitability of it must be checked before use. Also, sources of water must be monitored regularly to determine whether they are in sound health or not. Poor condition of water bodies are not only the indictor of environmental degradation, it is also a threat to the ecosystem. In industries, improper quality of water may cause hazards and severe economic loss. Thus, the quality of water is very important in both environmental and economic aspects. Thus, water quality analysis is essential for using it in any purpose. After years of research, water quality analysis is now consists of some standard protocols. There are guidelines for sampling, preservation and analysis of the samples. Here the standard chain of action is discussed briefly so that it may be useful to the analysts and researchers.","PeriodicalId":11960,"journal":{"name":"ESSENCE International Journal for Environmental Rehabilitation and Conservation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79543246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Emulsions used as pigment binders have to deal with the challenge to assure an outstanding film configuration and exterior as well as good mechanical properties. The influence of the mass ratio of BA to MMA, the amount of N-methylolacryamide and glycedyl methyl acrylate on the paint's properties of the self-crosslinked emulsion was examined. And the relationship between emulsion viscosity and particle size was investigated. The results show that the self crosslinked acrylate emulsion with high viscosity can be synthesized with 50:50 monomer composition of BA: MMA and added amount of N-methylolacryamide is 0.3%−1.0% and added amount of solidum persulphate is 0.5%−1.5%. The particle size of emulsion in the range of 200 to 470 nm. The self-crosslinkage process of N-methylolacryamide involves two steps. .

Emulsion polymerization can also be defined as an addition polymerization process which proceeds by micellar mechanism. The polymer formed is stabilized within the emulsion by absorption onto surfactants as the polymerization proceeds.

Both the accessions had 2n=18. The frequency of chiasmata/chromosome was found to be >0.7 and <0.8 in the treated plants. The meiotic course was found to be abnormal in all the treatments and their frequency of anomalies increased with the increase in Cr concentration. Abnormalities noticed were restitution nucleus, clumping, chromatin bridges at telophase I/II, micronuclei at telophase I and II, etc. The spore arrangement was found to be tetrahedral. Triads and polyads were also found along with tetrads. The pollen sterility in E1 treatment were found to be 32 to 34 % and in E2 from 33 to 34%. The pollen/anther in E1 different treatments varied from 251 to 309 and in E2 from 285 to 311. The pollen diameter in E1 was found to be 27 to 35 μm and in E2 from 31 to 38 μm .
