An experiment was conducted at Rice Research Institute, Kala Shah Kaku in 2010 during kharif season to study the influence of nitrogen (N) and potash (K) on severity of Bacterial leaf blight (BLB) of rice (Oryza sativa L.) aimed at improving productivity. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with factorial arrangement with three replications. Treatments comprised of: 0 kg N ha-1, 75 kg N ha-1, 100 kg N ha-1, 125 kg N ha-1 and 0 kg K ha-1, 50 kg K ha-1, 75 kg K ha-1, 100 kg K ha-1. Data on disease severity and paddy yield were recorded using standard procedures. Paddy yield was affected significantly by various combinations of N & K. In case of bacterial leaf blight, minimum diseased incidence percentage was observed when nitrogen alone was applied @ 75 kg·ha-1 in contrast to fertilizer applied @ 125 kg N ha-1 + 50 kg K ha-1 which showed maximum diseased incidence percentage. Maximum paddy yield (4.32 t·ha-1 ) was recorded when rice was fertilized @ 75 kg N ha-1 + 100 kg K ha-1 as compared to sole fertilization of 75 kg K ha-1 that produced minimum paddy yield (2.40 t·ha-1). Maximum gross income, net returns and benefit cost ratio were obtained where rice crop was fertilized @ 75 kg N ha-1 and 100 kg K ha-1.

The current study investigates the effect of ultrasound-assisted cooking on broiler meat *** objective of this study was to explore the combined effect of ultrasound treatment(US)(40 kHz,120 Wcm^(-2))at different cooking temperatures(50,60,70,80℃)on physicochemical and sensory attributes of broiler ***,pH,cooking loss%,Thio-barbituric acid reactive substances(TBARS),shear force,color,and sensory properties were investigated and compared with the control *** result showed that the ultrasound treatment had no significant effect on pH values compared to the control *** cooking loss%decreased with the application of US treatment at higher temperatures,which implied a higher cooking ***,sonicated meat showed lower shear force values even at 80℃ cooking temperature,which indicates increased *** addition,lower TBARS values were recorded at 50℃ temperature in combination with ultrasound,but the other treatments were similar to the control *** application of ultrasound increased the lightness of meat with a significant decrease in lightness and *** cooked at 80℃ with US showed a significantly higher sensory score(odor,flavor,tenderness,juiciness,overall acceptability)than other treatment *** treatment of ultrasound combined with temperature was considered a promising and efficient technique for processing as it increased the perception of tenderness with less cooking losses and higher sensory attributes.

One of the main reasons behind reduced cane yield is pathetic method of planting. Planting method and row spacing are the most important yield contributing factors in sugarcane. A field experiment was carried out in order to determine quality and yield of sugarcane in various spatial arrangements. Treatments are 180 cm spaced trenches with triple row strips;180 cm spaced trenches with alternate row strips;120 cm spaced trenches with double row strips and 60 cm spaced furrow with single row. Perusal of data revealed that 3.6%, 13.4%, 15%, 15.3% more cane diameter (cm), cane length (cm), stripped cane yield (t·haˉ1), sugar yield (t·haˉ1) were obtained from 180 cm spaced trenches with triple row strips as compared to conventional planting method i.e. 60 cm spaced furrows. While the number of millable canes mˉ2, polarity %, cane juice purity %, cane juice %, commercial cane sugar % and cane sugar recovery % remained non-significant by different planting techniques.

Fermentation based vaccine production system is replaced by edible vaccine technology. Plant derived vaccines are produced by using transgenic plants which have immunogenic properties. For combating infectious diseases especially in developing countries there is a practical need of new technology to produce and deliver inexpensive vaccines. We have best option of plant derived edible vaccines. There are many benefits of plant derived vaccinesi.e. they are cheaper, simple and easy to administer, more stable, extra versatile, with more acceptance power and highly efficient. Some plant derived vaccines are under clinical trials to use commercially and many are under research. This paper reviews the current status and future of this technology.
