Monostroma: the Jeweled Seaweed for Future Cultivation methods, Ecophysiology, Phylogeography and Molecular Systematics
(Lambert Academic Publishing, 2011)This thesis aims at providing a comprehensive picture of the reproductive physiology, growth, phylogeography, and phylogenetics of M. latissimum-nitidum complex in Southern Japan. A review on agronomy and utilization of ... -
Cancer phylogenetics: Computational modeling of tumor evolution
(Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2012)The field of phylogenetics is one of the core areas of Bioinformatics which deals with computational methods to infer evolutionary heritage of organisms and genes. While phylogenetics has been extensively utilized in ... -
Temperature-stratified screening of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) genetic resource collections reveals very limited reproductive chilling tolerance compared to its annual wild relatives
(2012)Low reproductive chilling tolerance in chickpea impairs ovule fertilization, delaying pod set, exposing the crop to terminal drought throughout much of its distribution range. Despite this realization, little progress has ... -
Chromosomal location of non-hypersensitive leaf rust resistance genes in bread wheat cultivar PBW65 using microsatellite markers
(2012)Microsatellite or simple sequence repeat (SSRs) markers have been powerful tool for genetic mapping in wheat. Indian bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar PBW65 has shown significant level of resistance to most ... -
Systematics and Taxonomic Keys for the Marine Green Algal Family Monostromataceae
(Nova Science Publishers, 2012)Marine green algal family Monostromataceae consists of single cell-layered green seaweeds distributed throughout the world, yet identification of it being one of the most challenging. Monostromatic green seaweeds are all ... -
Sequence-based Phylogeography of Seaweeds: How Current Distribution is Shaped by Accumulation of Past?
(Graduate School of Kuroshio Science, Kochi University, 2013)State-of-the-art techniques of phylogeography are now routinely used to assess changes at DNA level accumulated over time, and thereby to study forces that might have influenced distribution patterns of organisms. Presented ... -
Sequence Similarity Search, Multiple Sequence Alignment, Model Selection, Distance Matrix and Phylogeny Reconstruction
(Nature, 2013)This is a generic sequence analysis protocol suitable for plant and algal phylogeographic studies. Generated sequences from bidirectional Sanger sequencers are first assembled using Geneious. Sequence assembly is then ... -
Agronomy and cultivation methods for edible seaweeds
(Research India Publications, 2013)Seaweeds, by all means, are “future plants”; they have been projected as the future viand for ever-increasing human populations, viable and sustainable source for biofuel without disturbing global food scenario, as potential ... -
Synthesis of imine-pyrazolopyrimidinones and their mechanistic interventions on anticancer activity
(2013)Design, synthesis and anticancer activity of a series of imine-pyrazolopyrimidinones is reported for the first time. Compounds 9d, 9n and 9o in the series show encouraging in vitro anticancer activity with low micromolar ... -
Secret of waking-up fresh and having a great day!
(CSIR- NISCAIR, 2014)After a long night's sleep, now that you are sitting on a chair with morning cuppa and the Science Reporter-both indeed neuro-stimulants, and hoping to have a great day, no matter had you woke-up fresh or not. Believe it ... -
Development and characterization of genomic microsatellite markers in Rhododendron arboreum
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2014)Population genetics characteristics are the fundamentals of conservation and management practices. Rhododendronarboreum, a key biodiversity component inhabiting Indian Himalayas, suffers from overexploitation and global ... -
Seaweeds Ancestors of Land Plants with Rich Diversity
(Indian Academy of Science, 2014)Seaweeds are taxonomically diverse group of marine plants from which the land plants diverged over fifty crore years ago. Traditionally having been classified based on plant color as green, brown and red, modern molecular ... -
Morphological and molecular assessment of native carrageenophyte Hypnea valentiae (Cystocloniaceae, Gigartinales) in Indian Subcontinent
(Phycological Society, 2014)Hypnea valentiae is an important red alga commercially cultivated in various parts of the world for the production of carrageenan. Presented in this report is findings of morphological and molecular observations of ... -
Seaweeds: Ancestors of land plants with rich diversity
(Springer India, 2014)Seaweeds are taxonomically diverse group of marine plants from which the land plants diverged over fifty crore years ago. Traditionally having been classified based on plant color as green, brown and red, modern molecular ... -
Insulin receptor (IR) and insulin-like growth factor receptor 1 (IGF-1R) signaling systems: Novel treatment strategies for cancer
(Humana Press Inc., 2014)Insulin and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling system, commonly known for fine-tuning numerous biological processes, has lately made its mark as a much sought-after therapeutic targets for diabetes and cancer. These ... -
Chloroplast DNA phylogeography of holy basil (Ocimum tenuiflorum) in Indian subcontinent
(2014)Ocimum tenuiflorum L., holy basil "Tulsi", is an important medicinal plant that is being grown and traditionally revered throughout Indian Subcontinent for thousands of years; however, DNA sequence-based genetic diversity ... -
DNA barcoding of a new record of epi-endophytic green algae Ulvella leptochaete (Ulvellaceae, Chlorophyta) in India
(Springer India, 2014)Epi-endophytic green algae comprise one of the most diverse and phylogenetically primitive groups of green algae and are considered to be ubiquitous in the world's oceans; however, no reports of these algae exist from ... -
An illustrated review on cultivation and life history of agronomically important seaplants
(Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2014)Seaplants (a better alternative to the misnomer "Seaweeds"), by all means, are "future plants"; they have been projected as the future viand for ever-increasing human populations, viable and sustainable source for biofuel ...
