Preliminary studies on generating metal nanoparticles in pomegranates (punica granatum) under stress

The submitted article was dedicated to research of biosynthesis and generation of metal nanoparticles in Punica Granatum. Researches carried out with dried leaves, bark and extracts made from the leaves and fruits. Our study was carried out in two directions: biosynthesis of nanoparticles was carried out by using plant extracts and metallic salts. At the same time in living systems studied biogeneration of nanoparticles and determined mechanism of this event.

Antifungal activity of some common medicinal plant extracts against soil borne phytopathogenic fungi fusarium oxysporum causing wilt of tomato

Biopesticides are mostly used to control fungal plant diseases because of their ecofriendly nature and their cost effectiveness. The present study focused on antifungal activity of solvent based plant extracts of common medicinal plants Azadirachta indica ,Tinospora cordifolia, Oscimum sanctum, Justicia adhatoda , Catharanthus roseus, Aegle marmelos, Aloe barbadensis, Tithonia diversifolia, Hyptis suaveolens and Pongamia pinnata were observed against soil borne phytopathogenic fungus Fusarium oxysporum by modified poisoned food technique.

Triple encryption of multiple keys for symmetric key crypto systems

Multiple encryptions in a practical system refers to encrypting the data more than once i.e., encrypting the data twice or trice to increase the security levels. As long as the cipher is unbreakable the encryption schemes remains strong. In view of the known attacks encrypting the data more than once will strengthen the security levels. In this paper we proposed a triple encryption scheme by using two keys generated by the mathematical structures from the number-theoretic concepts.

Studies on cultural and morphological variation among 20 isolates of fusarium oxysporum causing wilt of tomato

Twenty isolates of Fusarium oxysporum causing wilt of tomato were recorded for its cultural and morphological variations. The Fusarium oxysporum isolates Fs4 , Fs8 , Fs 11 , Fs12 , Fs14 , Fs15 , Fs16 , Fs17 , Fs19 , Fs20 having the radial colony growth between diameter of 86 mm to 90 mm were among the fast growing category whereas isolates Fs1 , Fs3 , Fs10 , Fs13 , Fs18 showed colony growth between 64 mm to 80 mm classified as medium growing and bellow 64 mm growth of isolates were recorded as slow growing.
