DEVELOPMENT OF QUINOA (CHENOPODIUM QUINOA) SUPPLEMENTED COOKIES
Agricultural Sciences Journal, 2021 Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa) a pseudo cereal belongs to family “Chenopodiaceae” containing a good quantity of essential micronutrients especially calcium, phosphorus, iron, zinc etc. along with basic nutrients. Quinoa seeds are not true grains and not considered as fruit so they are considered as pseudo-cereal as well as pseudo oil seeds.

A framework linking silicon fertilisation, plant silicification and soil carbon cycling
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Soil organic carbon (SOC) is vital for soil health, food security, and climate change mitigation. We reviewed how silicon (Si) fertilisers, commonly used to improve plant health, may also influence SOC dynamics. We developed a framework linking Si and SOC and discussed the possibility of Si‐mediated plant changes contributing to SOC sequestration.

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.Virus‐enabled reverse genetics (VERG) enables transient gene expression modulation in plants but its efficacy varies across species. We evaluated the efficacy of barley stripe mosaic virus (BSMV) and foxtail mosaic virus (FoMV) for virus‐induced gene silencing (VIGS) and virus‐mediated overexpression (VOX) in rice (Oryza sativa).

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Efficient nitrogen (N) uptake is critical for crop yield, but soil salinization inhibits plant nitrogen acquisition. In this study, the nitrate (NO3−) transporter gene SsNRT2.5 and its promoter from the halophyte Suaeda salsa was investigated to elucidate the functional role in NO3− transport under salinity and low NO3−–N conditions.
