He complained that though Indian scientists have produced good research work but most of the work being published in Indian Journals is not available to the global research fraternity and hence quality cannot be judged on global scale. His words kept on disturbing me because it is true that unless the research findings are available to other researchers they cannot be put on trial for their repetitive value, an essential criterion for the research findings to be declared useful for end user (in our case the farmer). The lack of widespread dissemination of research findings can also hamper the due recognition for novelty of the research results. Further in the present era of IPR the word “idea patent” can be tackled only by making available the research done in public domain. This was the genesis for preparing the present book of abstracts of research papers published (from 1986 to 2013) out of work done on camel at National Research Centre on Camel, Bikaner, an institute under aegis of Indian Council of Agricultural Research. Majority of the work was done on Camelus dromedarius (single humped camel) with few papers on Camelus bactrianus (double hump camel). Apart from Centre’s Library the libraries of College of Veterinary and Animal Science, Bikaner, National Dairy Research Institute, Karnal and Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Izatnagar were consulted. It took almost one year to complete this book. A total number of 272 abstracts are presented in chronological order. A list of research papers (96) published without summary or abstracts has been placed in the end. Apart from limited print copies the book will also be made available on internet. This will save the cost of printing of many copies for distribution and will aid to conserve the environment by saving paper. The page setting has been done in the manner to enable it to be searched easily by popular search engines like Google scholar. The web link of the book will also be provided to the international agencies working on camel like ISOCARD (International Society of Camelid Research and Development), CIRAD-EMVT, France so that most of the camel researchers can have access to this book. I am hopeful that this book will become important reference book for the camel researchers and students globally. I express my warm regards and sincere thanks to Prof. K.M.L. Pathak, Deputy Director General (AS), Indian Council of Agricultural Research for his constant motivation and encouragement. I extend my gratitude to Dr B.S. Prakash, Assistant Director General (AN&P), ICAR for his ingenious advice. I express my gratitude to Dr N.V. Patil, Director, National Research Centre on Camel, Bikaner for providing necessary infrastructure and resources to complete this book. This work would not have been possible without his sagacious guidance, immense help and care. I also thank the help by another co-editor of the book, A.K. Sharma, Research Associate, ITMU, NRC on Camel, Bikaner. (Sumant Vyas) Pr. Sci. (Ani. Reprod.) Index S.No. Contents Page No. 1. List of research papers (with abstracts/ summary) i-xvii 2.

PARROTfl Department of Crop and Soil Scien£es,The University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia 30602- 7272 (Received25 July 1~7; accepted21 October1997; editorG. C. Phillips) SUMMARY To improve proliferation of soyh~an cultures in liquid medium, the effects of sucrose; total inorganic nitrogen; content of NO3-, NH.+, Ca2+, PO.3-, K+; NH.+/NO3- ratio; and medium osmotic pressure were studied using cv. Jack. Sucrose concentration, osmotic pressure, total nitrogen content, and ammonium to nitrate ratio were found to be the major factors controlling proliferation of soybean embryogenic cultures. Growth decreased linearly as sucrose concentration increased from 29.7 mM to 175.3 filM. A sucrose concentration of 29.2 filM, a nitrogen content of 34.9 mM at I to 4 ammonium to nitrate ratio were found to be optimal for the fastest prolif~ration of soybean embryogenic cultures. There was no significant effect on proliferation of cultures when concentrations of NH. +, Ca2+, PO.3-, and K + were tested in the range of 3.50 to 10.50, 1.02 to 3.06, 0.68 to 2.04, and 22.30 to 36.70 filM, respectively. The relative proliferation of embryogenic cultures of four soybean genotypes was evaluated in Finer and Nagasawa medium and in the new medium formulation. Despite genotype-specific differences in growth, the genotypes tested showed a biomass increase in the new formulation equal to 278, 269, 170, and 251 % for Chapman, F138, Jack, and Williams 82, respectively, relative to their growth on standard FN medium.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. In the present study, phytochemical contents of 25 moth bean (Vigna aconitifolia) seed accessions were evaluated. This includes protease inhibitors, phytic acid, radical scavenging activity, and tannins. The studies revealed significant variation in the contents of theses phytochemicals. Presence of photochemical composition was correlated with seed storage proteins like albumin and globulin. Qualitative identification of total seed storage protein abundance across two related moth bean accessions using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2D-GE) was performed. Over 20 individual protein fractions were distributed over the gel as a series of spots in two moth bean accessions. Seed proteome accumulated spots of high intensity over a broad range of pI values of 3–10 in a molecular weight range of 11–170 kDa. In both seed accessions maximum protein spots are seen in the pI range of 6–8.

Moth bean (Vigna aconitifolia L.), a drought resistant legume, possesses high nutritional value. Cadmium (Cd) is a nonessential and the most toxic heavy metal in plants. The present study was to test the hypothesis of whether moth bean being a drought resistant legume can withstand the cadmium stress. Ten-day-old moth bean seedlings were subjected to cadmium stress and investigated for a period of 15 days every 3-day intervals. Cadmium quantification in moth bean tissues suggests root accumulation and translocation to aerial parts in a concentration dependent manner. Results of physiological and biochemical studies revealed that cadmium has affected the growth parameters like shoot and root lengths and tissue dry weights.

India *Corresponding Author E-mail: [email protected] Received: 12.09.2018 | Revised: 9.10.2018 | Accepted: 16.10.2018 ABSTRACT The reniformis nematodes of the genus Rotylenchulus (Haplolaimidae: Nematoda) are sedentary semi-endoparasites of numerous crops. There are ten species out of which R. reniformis and R. parvus are important, and three species (R. amanictus, R. clavicadatus, R. leptus) are monophagous: two on monocots and one on Rosids. In general, Rotylenchulus species are capable of feeding from very primitive Magnoliids to plants of advanced category. Preference was distinctly observed towards the plants in Rosids (42.779%) followed by monocots (23.949%) and Asterids (21.755%). The SAI values were also higher for these groups of plants. The study on lineages further revealed intimate affinity to febids (25.594%), followed by commelinids (18.647%), malvids (16.088%), lamiids (11.883%), and campanulids (9.141%). Poales contribution within commelinids was 65.353%. Maximum affinity of Rotylenchulus species was observed by their association with plants from families Poaceae (7), followed by Fabaceae (6), Malvaceae (6), Asteraceae (4), Oleaceae (4), Soanaceae (4) and so on.
