An experiment was conducted on Silver fir (Abies pindrow) seedlings raised in five different growing medium in 300cc ischolar_main trainers-M1 (Peat moss + vermiculite, 1 : 1),M2 (Dal weed +Sand, 1:1), M3 (Cupressus leaf litter+ Sand, 1:1), M4 (Peat moss+Sand, 1:1) and M5 (Soil + Sand + FYM, 1:1:1). The growth of seedlings was recorded after two years and six months of sowing. The growing medium M1 (Peat moss + Vermiculite, 1:1) recorded maximum height (10.2cm), collar diameter (3.71mm) and fresh shoot and ischolar_main weight (3.79 and 4.22g) respectively, similarly the seedlings raised in M1 also recorded maximum height increment of 3.92cm.Keywords

Rhizosphere microbial composition of walnut plants (Cultivar SKAU-W-0035) was studied to select the predominant and efficient isolates of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria as microbial inoculants. Rhizosphere of walnut was found to be inhabited by bacteria, fungi and actinomycetes with maximum population in June and minimum in December. The most predominant microorganisms in the walnut rhizosphere were species of Azotobacter, Azospirillum, Bacillus, Pseudomonas, Aspergillus and Penicillium. Three isolates of each predominant bacterium were screened for plant growth promoting activities. Azotobacter (AZB III), Azospirillum (AZS II), Bacillus (BAC I) and Pseudomonas (PS II) were found to be efficient isolates owing to their ability to produce ammonia, IAA, HCN, antagonasis and phosphorus solubilizing activity. Best growth of all three selected isolates was recorded in nutrient broth at pH 7 and temperature of 300C. The selected isolates were mass-multiplied in nutrient broth for 72 hrs in pilot scale fermentors and mixed with various solid carriers. Shelf life of the cultures was determined by counting the population at 2, 3 and 6 month interval. Lignite was found to be the best carrier for Azotobacter, Azospirillum and Pseudomonas, whereas peat was most suitable carrier for Bacillus.Keywords

Research findings are presented on the chemical environment and nutrient dynamics in Hokersar wetland ecosystem of Kashmir Himalayas (J&K). The water body is characterized by calcium-rich water and dominance of bicarbonate anion. The estimation of nutrient pools in principal components (water, sediments and macrophytes) indicates sediments as long-term major sink (> 99 %); the sequence being sediment > water > macrophytes. The sediment phosprorus-pool was estimated at 5,844 metric tonnes (99.6%). Almost similar trend was observed in the nitrogen pool, sediments held 8,195 metric tonnes (99.8 %). The potassium pool in the sediment accounted for 30,883 metric tons (99.5%). Notwithstanding the nutrient removal potential of macrophytes and their bioremediation role in combating water pollution, sediments act as a major sink, holding key for sequestration and removal mechanism.Keywords

A nursery trial of Cedrus deodara and Pinus halepensis with nine different sowing dates spread over autumn, winter and spring was conducted during 2002-2003. Germination in case of Cedrus deodara was better where seeds were sown in the month of February, but in Pinus halepensis sowing dates did not affect the germination up to 1st February. Survival percentage of seedlings was more in seeds sown in the first fortnight of February. Time taken for completion of germination decreased as sowing proceeded from autumn to spring. Except for diameter in Pinus halepensis seedling development in terms of height and diameter was also better in seeds sown in the first fortnight of February. Thus in order to get good germination, better survival and reduce nursery expenditure seeds should be sown in the nursery in the first fortnight of February (winter) instead of sowing seeds in the autumn season. Development of seedlings is also better in case seeds are sown in February (winter).- Hydrology and Sediment Loading of Hokersar Wetland Sanctuary in the Kashmir Himalaya , India

Hydrological characteristics and sedimentation loading in Hokersar wetland of Kashmir Himalaya was monitored from November 2000 to October 2001. The computed water budget showed a substantial (91%) input from various surface inflows and just 9% through precipitation. Major water discharge (67%) occurs through surface outlets , whilst , 33% is attributed to evapotranspiration and other unaccounted for losses. Relatively low flushing rate (3.75 times/year) and high residence time (97.3 days) contribute to increased nutrient retention in the wetland. The inflow/outflow rates are closely linked to precipitation and water demand in'the catchment. Annual sediment accumulation of 16 ,862.2 metric tonnes (93% contributed by Doodganga Channel) accounts for gradual filling-in of the Kokersar wetland ecosystem.- Observations on Early Performance of Paulownia fortunei in Kashmir

The 'tropical tasar', one of the variety of four commercially known non-mulberry silk in India, called Vanya silk, is an exclusive craft of about 1.5 lakh tribals, having huge base of 111.60 lakh hectare of natural tasar flora. Rearing quality, its success and profitability, then exhibiting superior grainage traits and post cocoon attributes, all indispensably rely on quality and most vitally, timely supply of required quantity of basic seed, called DFLs (Disease Free Laying) in defined brushing schedule, accommodating regional and seasonal suitability. The tribal engaged in this activity were the poorest of the poor living below the poverty line having an annual family income of Rs. 11,850.00 or less. Their seven year's success story of tasar Seribusiness clearly indicates that there has been an aggregate per farmer average annual income of Rs. 3198=00, which stands around 27% of their total annual income. Considering the economic significance of time and energy spent by them, this seasonal avocation of tasar seed crop rearing corresponds a tremendous impact in improving the economic status of tribal community to grow out of poverty and to curtail down the exploiting role of the local moneylenders. On the other hand, the cluster of seed rearers also helped the Central Silk Board grainage to increase the production of tasar seed manifold. Their contribution in terms of cocoons production was 51.47 % and for seed production it was 47.52%. It indicates that similar efforts at national level can bridge the existing demand and supply gap of 74.02 Lakh DFLs.Keywords

The incidence of natural enemies on the mulberry pyralid, Glyphodes (=Margaronia) pyloalis Walker (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) infesting mulberry crop was studied at Pampore, Kashmir during 2008 and 2009 cropping seasons. Five hymenopteran parasitoids including three braconids (Apanteles obliquae Wilkinson, Bracon hebetor Say and Chelonus carbonator Marshall) and two ichneumonids (Pristomerus sulci Mahdihassan and Kolubajiv and Xanthopimpla sp.) were found to parasitize the larvae. Two predators, viz. Tetragnatha sp. (Araneae: Tetragnathidae) and Philodromus sp. (Araneae: Philodromidae) were also recorded. The activity of these natural enemies was observed from July to October in the cropping period spread over May-October.Keywords

Early mafic differentiate of quartz diorite to quartz monzodiorite composition related to Mid-ProterozoIc, late to post-tectonic calc-alkaline (diorite-granodiorite) plutons in Meghalaya occur in three different modes, viz. (l)dykes in country rock gneisses along tectonic locales, (2) endogenous inclusions in the diorite-granodionte intrusive plutons, as early differentiated product through fractional crystallization or liquid immiscibility, and (3) xenohths in Upper Proterozoic-Early Palaeozoic granite plutons (Nonpoh granite). These appear to be basic precursors of thc granitoids. The mafic inclusions were subjected to metasomatism by granitoids over an extended period starting with the formation of the granitic differentiates of calc-alkaline intrusions and ending with the placement of the later granitic plutons. Petrology and chemistry of the mafic rocks suggest a possible basic parentage.Keywords

An approach for estimating groundwater potential in Luni block of Jodhpur district by isopach maps that were prepared based on electrical resistivity method are highlighted in this paper. Groundwater potential and quality of different aquifers are estimated based on the depth to bed rock, thickness of saturated zone and aquifer resistivity drop ratio. The total groundwater potential of suitable quality is estimated to be around 49 mem. The isopach maps prepared based on electrical resistivity survey to estimate the thickness of saturated zone are found fairly compatible with the ground conditions.Keywords

Corcyra cephalonica (Stainton) is a laboratory host for mass production of Trichogramma spp. and other biocontrol agents. In the present study for rearing Corcyra, three diets were used as broken maize alone, broken maize + yeast (2%) and broken maize + protinex (2%). Maize + yeast combination gave the best results in terms of mean total adults emergence (2211), mean total females (985), mean fecundity (397.85) and mean duration of moths emergence (52.31 days), while average developmental period was lowest (36 days) when compared with other two diets. The effect of egg laying on parasitization by T. chilonis revealed that highest mean per cent parasitization of 51.96 (mean of 1st to 6th day laying) was obtained on eggs laid by moths reared on maize + yeast diet. The highest mean per cent parasitization (73.9) was obtained on 2nd day egg laying.Keywords

The egg masses of litchi stink bug, Tessaratonla javanica (Thunberl:) were found parasitized by two very interesting egg parasitoids viz, Anastatus colemani Crawford (Hymenoptera: Eupelmidae) and Ooencyrtus phongi Tryapitsyn, Myartseva and Kostyukov (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae). The two parasitoids offer great potential for the hiological control of litchi bug T. javanica. Ooencyrtus phongi is being reported for the first time from India. The egg parasitization by A. colemani and O. phongi ranged from 12.9 to 52.9 per cent and 20.6 to 55.7 per cent, respectively during tbe study period. The sex-ratios of the A. colemani and O. phongi ranged from 1:1.83 to 1:4.14 and 1:1.35 to 1:3.83, (male: female), respectively.Keywords

In the present investigations a large array of plant species was evaluated for analysing their effect on the Trichogramma chilonis Ishii, for better understanding of the tritrophic interactions. The extracts of the eleven test plants were treated on the Corcyra eggs, which were suhsequently exposed to the adult females of T. chilonis for parasitisation and further observations, were made regarding per cent parasitisation and per cent emergence. Among the various plants tested, egg cards treated with the most commonly available fern in Tarai region Pteridium aquilinum resulted in maximum mean per cent parasitism 78, while maximum mean per cent emergence 85.33 was observed in the cards treated with Eucalyptus rostrata.Keywords
