Genetic analyses showed heritability estimates for the characters axis persistence and straightness (below 15%) while moderate estimates of heritability for height, GGL and GBH (between 40.60%). It is suggested that selections could be made from superior trees of individual provenances in order to have broad base for genetic improvement of Casllarina equisetifolia in Andhra Pradesh.

The International Provenance trial of Casuarina equisetifolia was established in 1996, with 27 provenances in Regional Forest Research Centre, Rajahmundry, East Godavari District, Andhra Pradesh. The Australian Tree Seed Centre of CSIRO, Canberra, Australia coordinated in collection of seed throughout the natural range as well as from land race populations of Casuarina. The Analyses of Variance of data indicated significant difference among provenances for height, GGL, GBH and straightness ap=0.05level of significance, while axis persistence has showed no significant difference. Genetic analyses showed heritability estimates for the characters axis persistence and straightness (below 15%) while moderate estimates of heritability for height, GGL and GBH (between 40.60%).

At Regional Forest Research Centre, Rajahmundry, East Godavari District, Andhra Pradesh the genetic improvement of Casuarina was commenced in 1994 and to date, considerable work under this project has been done, Candidate Plus Trees have been selected and established progeny tests. The progeny test comprises 16 families (16 CPTs) selected in North Coastal districts of Andhra Pradesh. In progeny test, the data was recorded at 24 months age for plant height, girth at ground level, girth at breast height, axis-persistence and straightness which showed great variation among the families. The characters Ggl, Gbh and straightness are showing significance at P⋍ O.05 level of significance. The broad sense heritability and genetic advance were calculated for all the parameters recorded and are presented. The interim results of this trial suggests that the further selections can bc made after monitoring the experiments for 3 to 4 years.- Effect of Gibberellic Acid (GA3) on Germination of Givotia rottleriformis Griff., Seeds

The International Provenance Trial Plot sponsored by FAO/DANIDA in collaboration with Andhra Pradesh Forest Department was established in 1973 at Maredumilli, North-East Andhra Pradesh, with 10 seed sources and one local seed source as control. The Analysis of Variance of data on 26 year old trees indicated non-significant differences among provenances for height, clear bole height, gbh, Crown scores while significant differences for survival rate, straightness and roundness of stem and health characteristics. Height and GBH growth of provenances ranged from 14.33 to 22.33 m and 42.80 to 69.78 cm and were comparable to site quality II/III reported for Teak in India. Among the indigenous seed sources 'Konni' (Kerala) and exotic sources 'Ban Mae Pan' (Thailand) were the best for all the parameters studied. Genetic Analysis showed low heritability (broad sense) estimates for the characters on height, gbh, health, crown and branching characters (below 30 per cent), while moderate to high estimates of heritability for straightness (32.85 per cent) and roundness of stems (39.46 per cent) and clear bole height (60.50 per cent) characters. It is suggested that selections could be made from superior trees of individual provenances in order to have a broad base for genetic improvement of Teak in Andhra Pradesh.- Macro-propagation of some Important Medicinal Plants of Andhra Pradesh

Albino seedlings to the extent of 0.0004% are noticed in Artocarpus integrifolia. None of the albino seedlings survive, mainly because of chlorophyll deficiency which is probably a resultant of natural selfing. Seeds collected from particular locality alone showed albinism.- Rooting of Stem Cuttings of Avicennia officinalis.Linn.

Mangroves are self maintaining estuarine components of the biosphere that are in continuous interaction with the terrestrial and marine-ecosystems. Vegetative propagation by ischolar_maining of stem cuttings of Avicennia species, one of the most important genera of the Godavari mangroves using ischolar_main hormones IAA and IBA has been tried. The cuttings of Avicennia officinalis and Avicennia alba showed a good response in producing the ischolar_mains with IBA 5000ppm followed by IBA 10000 ppm, IAA 5000 ppm and IAA 10000 ppm.- Rooting Experiments of Stem Cuttings of Stercula urens, Roxb.

In India, about a half of pre-school children ore under-nourished. Undernutrition manifests as subnormal growth or growth retardation and is measured by levels of stunting, wasting and underweight. Therefore, measurement of growth, in spite of some practical limitations, is a convenient and useful tool in the hands of primary health care workers. Growth monitoring has been an integral part of nutrition surveillance and a number of public health intervention programs like the Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) and Tamil Nadu Integrated Nutrition Project (TINP) in India. Growth monitoring in early childhood is an important component of the ICDS program. These children are weighed every month using Salter weighing scale at the Anganwadi Centre (AWC) and the weights are plotted on growth charts.- Nutritional Status of the Population in Bundelkhand Region

The Bundelkhand is one of the underdeveloped regions of India. It comprises of six districts of Madhya Pradesh and seven districts of Uttar Pradesh. The study was to assess and compare the nutritional status of population in two sub regions of Bundelkhand. The district level data used in the study were compiled and analyzed from the Annual Health Survey (AHS) conducted in Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh during 2013-14 by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, in collaboration with the Registrar General of India. Descriptive statistics were computed using SPSS software and the prevalence was expressed in percentages with a 95% confidence interval. Spatial distribution of underweight and anemia among under five children were being studied using GIS mapping. The study showed that two out of five under five-year-old children are underweight, half of the under five children are stunted and one out of five children is wasted in Bundelkhand. There was a clear variation in the nutritional status of under five children observed in the two regions of Bundelkhand. Bundelkhand region showed a higher prevalence of underweight and stunting as compared to rest of Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh states. One out of three school aged children and one out of five adolescents were undernourished in the Bundelkhand. One out of four adults was suffering from chronic energy deficiency in this region. More than 80% of the population in Bundelkhand was suffering from anemia. Three districts viz Lalitpur, Mahoba and Banda have a relatively low prevalence of underweight and anemia among under five-year-old children. The spatial distribution of underweight and anemia among under five-year-old children is not random in Bundelkhand. District-wise perspective is essential in addressing the malnutrition and it can also be used to design appropriate regional programs intended to reduce the malnutrition.Keywords
