  Abstract

  Chenopodium album tolerate fairly high level of dehydration, low temperature and excessive salt concentration and expected to have efficient mechanisms to enable plants thrive well under harsh climatic conditions. This underutilized species may be a putative crop for biotechnological treatment for identification of gene and genetic mechanism involved in Abiotic stress tolerance and further its exploitation in enhancing inbuilt abiotic stress tolerant ability of cultivated crop plants. Freshly harvested Chenopodium seeds remain dormant for prolonged time and it is very difficult to germinate and conduct experiments in the laboratory condition using whole plant or parts of its. An effort with variety Pusa Bathua 1 was made to ensure smooth availability of seedlings as well as plant parts in the laboratory throughout the year. Seeds of chenopodium variety Pusa Bathua 1 was experimented with different environmental and chemical manipulations such as exposure to chilling temperature, 35% HCl treatment and gibberelic acid in different concentration (25ppm to 150 ppm). Seeds were sown in pots filled with vermiculite and peat moss (1:1 ratio). Maximum germination of 100% were observed when seeds treated with 100ppm GA3+35% HCl and incubated at cold temperature for of 24 hrs. Chilling treatment of 5 day had a maximum of 80% germination while it was 50% in control plants.

  Dear sirs,

  I would like to know secutiry measures that should be taken in order to increase performance of a cotton plant during summer against extreme temperature stress.

  good news
  when it be ok for research purpose
  do they advertised any post for this

  This institute give plat form for plant based reasearch related to transefer of genetic material and manupulation of gene in plant to reduce abiotic stress of plant
