B. Noor Mohamed*, K. T. Parthiban, R. Ravi and P. Kumar Forest College and Research Institute, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Mettupalayam, Tamil Nadu, 641 301, India. Received 11 November, 2013; Accepted 15 June, 2015 Aquilaria malaccensis Lam. is commonly known as Agarwood which is distributed in the Indo-malesian genus Aquilaria of family Thymelaeaceae known to produce resin-impregnated heartwood that is fragrant and highly valuable. Agarwood is reputed to be the most expensive wood in the world. Twenty two open pollinated families in A. malaccensis were selected and evaluated for growth attributes and genetic divergence. The experiment was conducted at Forest College and Research Institute, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University; Mettupalayam situated at 11° 19’ N longitude, 76° 56’ E latitude at 300 MSL during January - December 2010. The study indicates significant differences among the selected families for various growth attributes. Among the twenty two progenies evaluated, three progenies viz., NHJA, KHOW-1 and CHEK-1 exhibited consistent superiority over growth periods for shoot length, collar diameter and number of branches. Genetic divergence studies resulted in grouping of the selected families into six clusters which indicated the existence of adequate genetic divergence. Among the clusters, cluster VI was the largest with 9 progenies while the maximum intra clusters distance was recorded in cluster V.

Abstract Aim: The aim of the study was to explore the anti-methanogenic potential of phyto-sources from Northeast region of the country and assess the effect on rumen fermentation characteristics and protozoa for their likely inclusion in animal diet to reduce methane emission. Materials and Methods: Twenty phyto-sources were collected from Northeast state, Assam, during March to April 2014. Phyto-sources were analyzed for their tannin content followed by screening for methane mitigation potential using in vitro system.

K. Datta Plant Taxonomy and Biodiversity Lab., Department of Botany, Tripura University, Suryamaninagar, Tripura West-799022, Tripura, India 1Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] [Received 30.10.2018; Revised 05.12.2018; Accepted 18.12.2018; Published 31.12.2018] Abstract Home gardens are small plots of land surrounding the house and are found in all traditional communities throughout the world. The present study tries to examine the role of Reang Home gardens in North Tripura district of Tripura. A total of 38 Home gardens in 4 hamlet or pada were randomly selected for the study. Total plant inventory and interview method were used to collect data. In Reang Home gardens at North Tripura District overall 148 species under 130 genera belonging to 55 families have been inventoried. Leguminosae and Poaceae were the most dominant families. Forty percent of the Reang Home garden plants were found to harbour edible plant species. (food, Fruits, vegetable, pulses, spices), 22% medicinal, 18% ornamental, 4% timber, 3% fine wood and other categories remain little over 3%. Reang Home garden shows a good diversity with multiple uses. Most Reang peoples rely on folk health care traditions. Domestication of wild plants for food, medicine and other purposes are an important activity. Key words: Home garden, Reang tribe, North Tripura INTRODUCTION Home gardens are small plots of land surrounding the house and are found in all traditional communities throughout the world.
