Characterization of jute endophytes with inhibiting activity against Macrophomina phaseolina

Zaman, Nazia Rifat (University of Dhaka, 2019-10-02)

An endophytic bacterium Burkholderia contaminans NZ; isolated from jute, an important fibre producing plant, shows significant growth promotion activity in in vivo pot experiments. Ability to fix nitrogen, production ...
Development of rice tolerant to heat during flowering

Malo, Richard (University of Dhaka, 2018-04-23)

High temperature stress on crops results in significant yield reduction. It also affects the grain quality which results in economic loss due to low market price. Rice is also known to be sensitive to high temperature ...
Drought and salt tolerance characteristics of rice plants transformed with the SNAC1 transcription factor

Tammi, Rumana Sultana (©University of Dhaka, 2022-02-22)

Abiotic stresses are one of the major problems for restricting food production around the world. Plant survival and crop production has been hampered due to environmental stresses such as salinity and drought. Some plants ...
Effect of exposure to arsenic on immune function and anemia status in children in a birth cohort study

Mannan, Tania (University of Dhaka, 2019-10-03)

Environmental exposure to arsenic is a global health concern which is linked to a number of diseases causing adverse health effects. Chronic arsenic exposure affects an estimated number of 200 million people worldwide ...
Functional Characterization of Mitochondrial Small Heat Shock Protein Genes in Eggplant for Abiotic Stress Tolerance

Khatun, Mst. Muslima (©University of Dhaka, 2023-12-11)

Plants are sessile organisms and have evolved with numerous mechanisms for overcoming various environmental stresses. In response to various abiotic stresses, plants are used to transcribe a class of proteins known as ...
