Selecting Parental Lines among Cultivated and Wild Species of Okra for Hybridization Aiming at YVMV Disease Resistance

Journal of Agricultural Science and Technology (2016)

Tania Seth A. Chattopadhyay Snigdhansu Chatterjee Subrata Dutta Bijender Singh

Yellow Vein Mosaic Virus (YVMV) disease of okra is the single major production constraint and causes yield loss to the tune of 50-90% in India. Hence continuous search for new sources of resistance and development of better varieties/hybrids with durable level of resistance should receive attention of breeder. An attempt was made to screen twenty-six advanced lines/varieties of okra in one of the hot spots of YVMV disease in eastern India to identify suitable parents for resistant breeding program. The study revealed high magnitude of genetic variability and high degree of transmission of majority of the growth, earliness, and yield component traits under consideration. Based on the degree of divergence, the genotypes were grouped into four clusters. Hybridization between genotypes belonging to Cluster II and Cluster III could combine early maturity, higher yield, and having high tolerance against YVMV disease. Dendrogram among the genotypes also revealed high diversity along with strong inter cluster relationships. Based on averages and principal component analysis, six genotypes viz ., BCO-1, A. caillei , A. manihot , 11/RES-6, VNR Green and 12/RES-2 appeared very promising candidates for future use in resistant breeding programs.

Comparative evaluation of sun, solar cabinet and electric cabinet drying methods for drying of lesser known leafy vegetables in Jharkhand

Vegetable Science (2020)

Tania Seth RS Pan Santosh S. Mali Sushanta Kumar Naik Ashish Kumar Singh

Leafy vegetables are the most important diet component ofdifferent tribal and local communities of Jharkhand as theyare rich source of nutrients and micronutrients. Most of theleafy vegetables are highly perishable. Drying reduces themoisture content to a safety level and allows storage over along period. In the present study, performance of thee dryingmethods viz. conventional sun drying (SD), solar cabinetdryer (SCD) and electric cabinet dryer (ECD) were evaluatedin drying of six lesser known leafy vegetables viz., Moringaoleifera, Polygonum plebeium, Centella asiatica,Limnophila conferta, Bauhinia variegata and Amaranthusviridis. Study revealed that in SCD the average temperaturewas 50C higher over SD method which allowed faster removalof moisture from the vegetable leaves. Among the threedrying methods, ECD was the fastest (drying time 2.2-3.0hr) method followed by SCD and SD (3.4-10.0 hr) methods.Initially, moisture content decreased at faster rate whichwas slowed down gradually with time. Drying rate constantwas higher for SD (0.12-0.50 hr-1) followed by SCD (0.03-0.20 hr-1) and ECD (0.0002-0.014 hr-1) methods. The rate ofdrying efficiency was recorded highest in ECD methodfollowed by SCD and SD methods irrespective of all theleafy vegetables. Keeping in view the erratic power supply,drying time, hygiene and safety, SCD can be betteralternative to sun drying. On the basis of portability andcost effectiveness, the solar cabinet dryer is recommendedfor small farmers of the Jharkhand.

Optimization of quality DNA isolation protocol from various mucilage rich cultivated and wild Abelmoschus sp. and its validation through PCR amplifcation

Vegetable Science (2018)

Gyan P. Mishra Tania Seth Bijendra Singh S. K. Tiwari

Okra is such a genomically less explored crop that, many labs are still trying for the optimization of quality DNA isolation protocol for the efficient use in the contemporary genomic studies. In this study, we have optimized a quick and reproducible DNA isolation protocol for the isolation of quality genomic DNA from different tissues of two cultivated (Abelmoschus esculentus and A. caillei) and seven wild okra species (A. manihot, A. moschatus, A. tetraphyllus, A. tuberculatus, A. ficulneus, A. rugosus and A. angulosus), including related species Hibiscus cannabinus. The quality of isolated DNA was also confirmed using PCR amplification of various DNA markers like Inter Simple Sequence Repeat (ISSR), Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD), Start Codon Targeted (SCoT) and Expressed Sequence Tag-Simple Sequence Repeat (EST-SSR). This is probably the first report wherein the DNA isolation protocol has been optimized for nine Abelmoschus species along with a related species Hibiscus. Thus, good quality and quantity of DNA can be isolated in okra, with the care that it should be performed using appropriate plant tissue, either very young leaves or etiolated seedlings, and well optimized DNA isolation protocol as prescribed in this study.

Bhendi Yellow Vein Mosaic Virus and Bhendi Yellow Vein Mosaic Betasatellite Cause Enation Leaf Curl Disease and Alter Host Phytochemical Contents in Okra

Plant Disease (2021)

Achuit K. Singh B. K. Yadav Ram Krishna R. Vinoth Kumar Gyan P. Mishra

Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci)-transmitted begomoviruses cause severe diseases in numerous economically important dicotyledonous plants. Okra enation leaf curl disease (OELCuD) has emerged as a serious threat to okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench) cultivation in the Indian subcontinent. This study reports the association of a monopartite begomovirus (bhendi yellow vein mosaic virus; BYVMV) and betasatellite (bhendi yellow vein mosaic betasatellite; BYVB) with OELCuD in the Mau region of Uttar Pradesh, India. The BYVMV alone inoculated Nicotiana benthamiana and A. esculentus cv. Pusa Sawani plants developed mild symptoms. Co-inoculation of BYVMV and BYVB resulted in a reduced incubation period, an increased symptom severity, and an enhanced BYVMV accumulation by Southern hybridization and quantitative real-time PCR. This is the first study that satisfies Koch's postulates for OELCuD in its natural host. Activities of various antioxidative enzymes were significantly increased in the virus-inoculated okra plants. Differential responses in various biochemical components (such as photosynthetic pigments, phenol, proline, and sugar) in diseased okra plants were observed. This change in phytochemical responses is significant in understanding its impact on virus pathogenesis and disease development.

Prospects of Local Flora of Trans-Himalayan Region of Ladakh for Various Medicinal Uses

CRC Press eBooks (2018)

Gyan P. Mishra Tsering Stobdan Parimelazhagan Thangaraj Tania Seth Bijendra Singh

Ladakh, being a cold arid high-altitude desert of the Trans-Himalayan region of India, has very harsh climatic conditions and a short agriculture season. Capparis spinosa also called the 'caper' and locally known as Kabra is one of the oldest of the known medicinal plants of the Amchi system which is occasionally used by local people of Ladakh as a leafy vegetable and forage. Ladakh is quite rich in medicinal flora, and many traditional herbs have been shown to have medicinal value that can be used to prevent, alleviate or cure several human diseases. Products made from sea buckthorn that have medicinal value are still rare in Indian markets, which should be increased substantially. Sea buckthorn fruits contain 60–80% juice rich in sugar, organic acids, amino acids and vitamins, and are among the most nutritious of all berries. Sea buckthorn has been studied extensively for its antioxidant properties.
