Exploring the untapped potential of an ancient species of wheat, Triticum sphaerococcum for abiotic stresses and nutritional quality traits through genome-wide association studies

Indian dwarf wheat (Triticum sphaerococcum Percival), is a landrace, which is indigenous to western India and southern Pakistan, and has been farmed since the Bronze Age. For thousands of years, the Indian dwarf wheat has nurtured and supported the I

Tracking long-term shelf edge variability and mass transport complexes along the western Indian continental margin

Passive continental margins are covered by thick terrigenous sediments transported to the ocean floor through multiple pathways. The Indian passive margin hosts the two largest submarine fan deposits in the world – the Bengal fan (~ 3 million sq. k

Mass Size distribution and chemical characteristics of ambient aerosols over Sikkim Himalayas and its impact on the Cryosphere

Aerosol has emerged as a major contributor to global climate change. Black Carbon (BC) aerosols is possibly second factor after CO2 as the main driver of change. BC and other light absorbing aerosols have a strong ability to capture sunlight and tran

Development of host differentials, pathotyping and identification of genomic regions for bakanae (Fusarium fujikuroi Nirenberg) disease resistance in rice

Number of diseases are emerging as major problem and bakanae/foot rot/foolish seedling is one such disease. The disease was an endemic problem in the past with no significant losses in India, however, the disease has recently become a serious threat

Synergistic Application of Heavy Metal Nanoparticles for Enhancing Drought and Heat Stress Resistance in Chickpea

In India and other semi-arid countries, abiotic stresses like heat and drought drastically lower chickpea yield and grain quality. These problems are getting worse as a result of climate change. To increase chickpea resilience, creative, scalable sol

Green synthesis of novel nitric oxide nano-delivery systems as a prospective growth promoter for enhancing nutraceutical values of millets under salinity stress

Millets are a critical food source in India, rich in fiber, vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals, and serve as a staple diet, particularly in rural areas. The global spotlight on millets in 2023, marked by the "International Year of Millets," empha

Geospatial data assimilation for monitoring glacier heterogeneity and GLOF hazard risk in Rongdo catchment, Shyok-Nubra valley, Ladakh

Himalayas comprises a vast storage of fresh water in snowfields and glaciers, contributing to the drinking water, agriculture, and hydropower supply for the billions of people living downstream. However, recent studies on glacier mass balance reveal

Spatio-temporal variation in microbial diversity and soil nutrient transformations under natural farming, organic farming vis a vis conventional agriculture

The agriculture is largely dependent on climatic condition besides other inputs. Thus is it more prone to weather aberrations and climate change. Additionally, small and marginal farmers till majority of land in Indian farming whereas high cost of in

Deciphering the seed transmission of turnip mosaic virus in mustard: from prevalence to mechanism

In India, until a few years ago, only staggered incidences of turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) were reported. However, due to climate change, a rise in incidences of TuMV infection has been noticed in various mustard-growing regions such as Rajasthan, Madh

Self-sustained solar still: leveraging perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells and zinc-air batteries for round-the-clock operation

Access to safe drinking water remains a critical global challenge, worsened by population growth, urbanization, industrialization, and climate change. Nearly one-fourth of the world’s population faces severe water stress, especially in arid regions
