An examination of mycoflora and related mycotoxins was completed from dried market tests of stem segments of Tinospora cordifolia, a significant therapeutic plant of India. These examples were gathered from different discount and retail shops of eight regions of Jammu and Kashmir state viz., Kathua, Jammu, Udhampur, Rajouri, Poonch, Doda, Srinagar and Leh. A sum of 39 contagious species speaking to 18 genera were recouped by utilizing surface washing system. Evaluation of mycobial heap of T. cordifolia demonstrated the nearness of numerous such contagious species that are generally recognized as the most significant mycotoxin makers. Examinations of tests for mycotoxin tainting was finished by multi-mycotoxin discovery strategy. The dried examples of Tinospora cordifolia were distinguished to be polluted with aflatoxin B1, aflatoxin B2, ochratoxin A, patulin and citrinin. Among the different mycotoxins distinguished, aflatoxins were available in greatest number of tests, which is presumably in light of the fact that Aspergillus flavus was recouped from all the examined tests. In any case, fusarial species and their poisons were not recognized from the examined tests.

Development of the freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) area in Bangladesh since 1970s has been upheld by common accessibility of freshwater apple snail (Pila globosa), utilized for on-ranch prawn sustains. The present examination distinguished the momentum setup of the worth chain advantages and limitations of freshwater apple snail in south-western Bangladesh in August 2011, in view of Fast Market Evaluation (RMA) approach. The site of snail accumulation was Chanda Beel in Gopalganj locale, while exchanging, preparing and last utilization was spoken to by Rayer Mahal Bazar in Khulna area. There were seven unique hubs perceived all through the worth chain. Snail promoting was recognized as a regular business and occurred during June to November every year. Somewhere in the range of 1995 and 2011 the cost of entire snail, meat and shell has expanded by 800%, 325% and 315%, separately. The bounty of snail had been diminished and its interest has expanded because of the development of the prawn cultivating industry. Prawn ranchers favored snail meat because of its ease (US$ 0.21 kg-1) as a wellspring of protein contrasted with business prawn feed (US$ 0.41 kg-1). Snail collecting and handling were considered as extra employment choices for poor people, where 60% of the work engaged with snail reaping were ladies, and 95% the de-shelling workforce. Prompted reproducing in bondage and economical administration in nature just as improvement of business generation of apple snails may decrease the weight on environments and decidedly added to the proceeded with extension of freshwater prawn cultivating in Bangladesh.

A 10×10 half diallel examination was directed on groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) to determine the quality activity and hereditary parameters of ten characteristics including half blooming, no. of units per plant, plant stature, collect file, case list, 100 case weight, 100 portion weight, case size, illnesses contamination and yield per plot. The investigations were completed in the Branch of Hereditary qualities and Plant Rearing, Bangladesh Farming College (BAU), Mymensingh during the trimming period of 2010-2011. The appraisals of quality impacts showed that criticalness of both added substance and non-added substance change for unit size, 100 case weight and maladies disease among the characteristics and nearness of over strength fulfilling presumptions of diallel aside from lethargy. Be that as it may, both the added substance and non-added substance quality influences together significance to control of most quantitative attributes in the groundnut. The normal level of strength (H1/D) 1/2 (H1 = predominance change, D = added substance fluctuation) was higher than one, showing over strength for every one of the attributes. The tight sense heritability was high for half blossoming (38%), collect list (35%), unit size (52%), 100 case weight (35%) and yield per plot (41%) showing that extraordinary hereditary addition could be accomplish

Endeavors have been made to survey some plant removes specifically, Lycopersicon esculentum, Tagetus patula, Achras sapota, Azadirachta indica, Datura metel, Cymbopogon citrates, Polyalthia longifolia, Allium sativum and Allium cepa in vitro for the administration of leaf spot (tikka) ailment of groundnut cultivar Dhaka-1 brought about by Cercospora arachidicola and Cercosporidium personatum. Results demonstrated that all the tried plant concentrates and BAU-Biofungicide smothered the development of mycelium and restraint of conidial germination of C. arachidicola and C. personatum. Among the medications, the leaf concentrates of L. esculentum demonstrated the best pursued by leaf concentrate of D. metel, A. indica and BAU-Biofungicide if there should be an occurrence of mycelial development and conidial germination. Other plant removes additionally had inhibitory impacts. In the event of conidial germination and germination hindrance, the least successful plant concentrate was C. citrates. Leaf concentrate of A. sapota was the least powerful if there should arise an occurrence of mycelial development.

Rotifers are important live nourishment for larval fish and shellfish in aquaculture. In the present examination, we directed a trial to assess the appropriateness of Chlorella ellipsoidea as nourishment for generation of the rotifer, Brachionus calyciflorus. The examination was completed in three medications utilizing dried powder Chlorella ellipsoidea (T1), crisp live Chlorella ellipsoidea (T2) and Bread cook's yeast (T3) as nourishment with three replications. For providing nourishment to rotifers, C. ellipsoidea was refined adequately in various cheap culture media before rotifer culture and it was proceeded up to the finish of the rotifer culture try. The scopes of natural components dissected were appropriate for both C. ellipsoidea and rotifers culture during the trial time frame. Greatest cell densities of C. ellipsoidea were recorded in cheap heartbeat wheat remove medium during the way of life period. The mean populace densities (implies ± SEM) of B. calyciflorus were essentially (p<0.01) most elevated in T2 (28.6 ± 4.64 (x103) people L-1) contrasted with T1 (11.6 ± 1.24 (x103) people L-1) and T3 (11.4 ± 1.82 (x103) people L-1). The discoveries of present investigation uncovered that crisp refined C. ellipsoidea was the best nourishment for creation of the rotifer, B. calyciflorus.
