Proteins of Euryale have a unique assemblage of different amino acids which act as medicinal ingredients for anti aging properties in human cell. Most of the important amino acids present in Euryale are leusine isoleucine, cysteine, methionine, glutamine and arginine. The amino acids arginine and methionine are the precursors of creatine which is essential for beautiful skin nails and hairs. Taurine synthesized from cysteine reduces diabetic effect in cell. Arginine which produces nitric oxide within the cell increases elasticity of arteries and veins thereby increases blood flow. Other amino acids like iso-leucine and proline help in growth and development of the body. The most powerful antioxidants have been found within amino acids, which can remove the free radical intermediates and terminate chain reactions and fight against aging and are readily available in certain foods, especially, like Euryale.
A field experiment was carried out during 2006 to 2007 on eight years old pear plants cv. Netarhat Selection using growth regulators viz., GA 3 , Thio-urea and H 2 O 2, which were sprayed with different concentrations and times. Two times spray of thio-urea 10% concentration resulted in 8 to 14 days earlier bud breaking than control as well as the maximum flowering of 11.0 and 53.3% during 2006 and 2007, respectively. The maximum yields of 10.6 and 20.6 kg/plant were obtained from two time's spray of thio-urea 10% during 2006 and 2007, respectively. In 2007, two times spray of thio-urea 5 and 10% was at par. Thiourea increased C: N ratio which resulted in increasing spur maturity.
Water chestnut is an excellent economical and medicinal winter crop from fresh water ecosystem. It is well known for its nutrient content including protein and antioxidants. Different water chestnut germplasm viz. Green Spineless, Green Spine, Red Spineless and Red Spine were studied at wetland ecosystem of North Bihar in India under Research Centre on Makhana, Darbhanga, during 2016-17. Under wetland ecosystem, Green Spineless variety of water chestnut produced large quality nut (24.42 g) followed by Red Spineless (23.11 g). Regarding yield, Green Spineless gave rise to the maximum yield of 12.24 t/ha. The Red Spineless variety exhibited the maximum TSS of 9.60B followed by Green Spineless (9.20B). Water chestnut beetle (Galerucella birmanica Jacoby.) was dangerous pest under wet land ecosystem as compared to aphid. Green colored varieties were resistant to beetle and aphid. Different approaches had been made to enhance the shelf life of water chestnut variety Red Spineless as it was sweetest and attractive in colour among trial varieties. The results revealed that poly packaging with 5% perforation and stored in refrigerator for 40C (T1) increased storage life up to 14.0days as compared to open ambient (T4) (4.72 days) maintaining fair market acceptability. This treatment (T1) also improved the TSS content of the fruit to 9.80B by slow and gradual PLW about 21.15 % during two weeks of storage. From our present study it may be concluded that irrespective of color, spineless varieties of water chestnut were promising under wetland ecosystem of North Bihar on account of their yield potential and nut quality.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
