Four mustard [Brassica juncea L. Czern and Coss.] cultivars, Alankar, Pusa Bold, Rohini and SS2 differing in Cd tolerance were treated with different doses 0, 50 and 100 mg Cd kg -1 soil. Cultivar SS2 [Cd sensitive] accumulated greater Cd in roots and leaves than Alankar [Cd tolerant]. Furthermore, SS2 also exhibited higher contents of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances [TBARS], hydrogen peroxide [H2O2] and electrolyte leakage. Photosynthesis and growth were adversely and maximally decreased by 100 mg Cd kg -1 soil treatment in all four of the cultivars, but SS2 exhibited greater reductions. Increasing concentrations of Cd in the soil result in decreased net photosynthesis [Pn], stomatal conductance [gs] and intercellular CO2 [Ci], but increase in proline content. Cultivars Alankar with higher proline content and greater nitrogen and nitrate reductase activity are efficient in controlling the Cd-induced oxidative stress as compared to least tolerant SS2, whereas tolerance capacity of Pusa Bold and Rohini lie in between the two. The tolerance index of Alankar was found to be higher among all the studied mustard cultivars, which indicate its higher tolerance to Cd toxicity. Tolerance index has been used as a good criterion to select the tolerant genotypes under high Cd stress. Leaf area and dry mass also decrease maximally at 100 mg Cd kg -1 soil with highest reduction in SS2. Maximum reduction of water potential and osmotic potential occur in SS2 and least in Alankar.","PeriodicalId":231568,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Functional and Environmental Botany","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128521250","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}

It was seen that the application of partially diluted textile effluent (treated) enhanced the root and shoot length in many crop plants. An experiment was conducted to the study the effect of treated textile mill effluent on seed germination and seedling growth of four varieties of Urd bean (PU-35, PU-19, IPU94-1 and TYPE-9). It was found that the treated effluent from the textile industry can be used as irrigation purpose because it has low BOD (Biological oxygen demand) (32 mg/l), COD (Chemical oxygen demand) (232 mg/l), pH (7.4) which is slightly alkaline and is colourless that is without dye and pigments (Table-1). It was found that 50 % treated effluent concentration was the most favourable for better growth of seedling and also for root and shoot length than the Control of all varieties of Urd bean. The lowest seedling growth was recorded at the 100% effluent concentration for the all varieties of Urd bean. Thus at higher effluent concentration such as 75 and 100% the lengths of root and shoot and seedling growth were inhibited. Therefore, 50% treated effluent concentration must be recommended for irrigation purpose of many crops and vegetables. This will also reduce the pollution load because of utilisation of waste water from industries in agriculture.","PeriodicalId":231568,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Functional and Environmental Botany","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114268732","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}

Limestone found in Himachal Pradesh. is an important industrial mineral. Therefore, the present work was undertaken to study the floristic composition at Alsindi Cement mining area in Mandi district of H.P. where Lafarage Cement [Ltd] Company is establishing a Cement factory and further to understand the life form spectrum of different plant species. A total of 76 species [22 trees, 18 shrubs, 4 climbers, 6 herbs, 4 grasses and 3 legumes] were found in this area. It was found that most of the species occurred at the HB [Hill base]. The life form spectrum recorded that 53% were phenerophytes, 18% therophytes and 29% hemigeophytes. When the present spectrum is compared with normal spectrum, it was found that phenerophytes, therophytes and hemigeophytes were more then normal spectrum, whereas geophytes and Chamaephytes were completely absent. A number of studies conducted earlier in different regions also show that it is not only the climate but biotic interference, also changes the life form and floristic composition of the area. Therefore, the primary strategy of the plants is survival by evolving wide range of life form patterns and occupy varied ecological niches in different area.","PeriodicalId":231568,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Functional and Environmental Botany","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122275893","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}

All the pulse-treated spikes gained fresh weight up to day eighth and was recorded maximum in spikes treated with sucrose 3% + 8-HQS (8 hydroquinoline sulphate) 300 ppm on day tenth. Improved water uptake and reduced water loss in pulse-treated spikes resulted in better water balance, which was recorded maximum (10.13 g) under sucrose 3% + 8-HQS 300 ppm treatment and minimum (2.67 g) in control.
