Molecular markers such as Kompetitive Allele Specific PCR (KASP) have now become a principal approach to study genetic relationship among various wheat species. The objective of our research study was to identify and distinguished the wheat parents and their hybrid for genes controlling major agronomical attributes. Germplasm comprised of fifteen genotypes were genotyped for gluten strength (Glu A1, Glu D1), height reduction (Rht 1), starch quality (Waxy), vernalization (Vrn A1, Vrn B1), photoperiod sensitivity (Ppd 1), Tan spot disease (Tns-1) and leaf rust disease (Lr34). Statistical analysis with endpoint genotyping, graphical display and principal coordinate revealed significant results for KASP assay. Most variable crosses were S3 X I1, S3 X I3, S2 X I1, S2 X I2 and S1 X I1 with maximum segregants. Whereas, variation was observed for Glu-D1, Tsn1, Glu-A1 followed by Lr34 alleles. Therefore, the objective was achieved successfully with the most reliable KASP markers. The diverse attributes dissected, and key hybrids identified in this study would provide guidance for the improvement of the economically important traits and provide understanding of genetic variability in distinct segregating populations. Besides we have identified significantly important partial mutants in the germplasm for Waxy allele. These findings could provide the end user with wheat products with improved quality such as with or without amylose content.","PeriodicalId":19885,"journal":{"name":"Pakistan Journal of Agricultural Sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43933155","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this purpose, Turkey’s diesel prices, exchange rate, and general food price index data for the same period between January 2000 and December 2019 were adopted. Considering that diesel prices are an essential cost item in agricultural production, it becomes crucial to determine the effect on food prices. Besides, the exchange rate fluctuations are expressed as another important macro variable that impacts food prices. As a result of the NARDL model, asymmetric co-integration between the general food price index, diesel prices, and the exchange rate was determined. Still, it has been observed that the negative and positive changes in diesel prices on food prices, in the long run, do not have a significant effect. On the other hand, the negative effect of the exchange rate was significant. It is concluded that a 1% decrease in the negative changes in the exchange rate will cause 0.94% decrease in food prices. Consequently, the general food price is affected by adverse shocks on the exchange rate in the long run. One may be concluded that the exchange rate should be considered while formulating policies about the swings in food prices. Especially, the local production of agricultural inputs affected by exchange rate fluctuations could be encouraged.","PeriodicalId":19885,"journal":{"name":"Pakistan Journal of Agricultural Sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46403690","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study was carried out to define the current status of CMV infecting eggplant crop in Pothwar region of Pakistan and characterization of CMV eggplant isolates as well as to recognize the sources of resistance in eggplant genotypes. A total of 660 leaf samples with the virus and virus-like symptoms were collected from different sites of Pothwar region and subjected to CMV specific DAS-ELISA using monoclonal antibodies. ELISA results indicated that approximately 56% of samples were positive for CMV infection and the disease incidence was highest (62.50%) in Jhelum district followed by Rawalpindi (58.33%), Chakwal (58.33%) and Attock (55.55%) districts with the lowest disease incidence (46.15%) was recorded in Islamabad district. Two ELISA positive samples from each district were further confirmed by RT-PCR and subsequently sequenced based on their coat protein cistron. All isolates were identical to each other so the nucleotide sequence of one eggplant isolate (CMV-Pak) was deposited in GenBank with accession number MH119063. BLAST and phylogenetic analysis revealed that CMV-Pak eggplant isolate shared 90-94% nucleotide and 80-100% amino acid similarities with other isolates available in GenBank. Moreover, 10 eggplant genotypes were tested against CMV-Pak eggplant isolate, ELISA results categorized three genotypes (Singh Nath 666, Neelum, and Brinjal Jamak) as moderately resistant, two genotypes (Round Black, and Global Brinjal PPL) as susceptible and rest of the five genotypes (Bemissal, Brinjal Shilpa, Short Purple, Brinjal PPL, and Namyal Ratchburi) as moderately susceptible. Therefore, the three moderately resistant genotypes could be recommended to farmers for farming and plant breeders for developing new eggplant resistant genotypes to CMV.

We design this study to find the linkages between Tourism (TM), CO2 emissions (CEs), GDP per capita (GDPPC) and Energy Use (EU). The annual data from 1995 to 2014 is used to examine the relationship among factors. The Fully Modified Ordinary Least Square (FMOLS) approach is used to analyse the data. The findings indicated that there is a positive relationship between TM and CEs but not significant at 5%. Moreover, the results indicate that the GDPPC and EU have a positive and significant relationship with CEs because the P-values of both variables’ coefficients are lesser than 5%. This study reveals that energy, used by the industrial sector, enhances CEs, validating that CEs registered a substantial rise because the industrial sector was using more energy rather than other sectors like tourism.","PeriodicalId":19885,"journal":{"name":"Pakistan Journal of Agricultural Sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47710339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Field experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design with three replications. Morphological data revealed that sweet corn genotype SCLY-1 was earlier in days to 50% pollen shedding than other genotypes while white corn genotype WL-3 was earlier in days to 50% silking. Maximum plant height was recorded for PCLY-5 (133.3 cm) while lowest for WL-4 (92.8 cm), whereas highest ears height was recorded for popcorn PCLY-1 (64.4 cm) and lowest (29.4 cm) for SCLY-5. The yellow corn had maximum (4.5 kg) grain yield at harvest as compared to sweet and popcorn (3.0 kg). Negative but weak correlation was recorded between ear height and grain yield. Cluster analysis based on yield related parameters grouped all the studied genotypes in to five sub clusters. Molecular genotyping based on four primers amplified 37 loci which were (100%) polymorphic. Maximum elven loci were identified by primer GLA-04, while minimum was reported for primer GLA-03. The loci GLD-18B1000, GLA-04B300 recorded highest gene diversity (0.500) followed by loci GLE05B750, GLE-05B650 and GLE-05B550.

The principal causes of fat degradation are oxidation and hydrogenation, which have a detrimental impact on quality aspects of oils and fats such as color, texture, flavor, aroma, consistency, and appearance. The current research was conducted to determine the oil degradation factors by collecting fifty samples of fried oils used by street vendors from twenty-five different locations in Faisalabad area in order to assess the quality parameters of locally available fats and oil products. Procured samples underwent physicochemical tests to determine the degree of degradation and oxidation. The parameters analyzed for quality evaluation include free fatty acids (FFA), peroxide value (PV), iodine value (IV), saponification value (SV), viscosity, refractive index (RI), p-anisidine value (p-AV), thiobarbeturic acid value (TBA), specific gravity (SG) and fatty acid profile through gas chromatograph equipped with flame ionization detector. The analyses revealed significant oxidation and degradation in many of the vendor fried fats and oil that were procured. Physicochemical characteristics as well as oxidative stability attributes were deviated from the standard values defined by Codex Alimentarius and Punjab Pure Food Regulations (PPFR). In majority of the samples, the fatty acid profile exhibited increased levels of trans-9-elaidic acid and linolelaidic acid, indicating the presence of trans-fatty acid because of hydrogenation and high-temperature frying of fats and oils.
