Comparsion of non-coding intergenic region of mtDNA of the European honeybee Apis mellifera L. with a haplotype of Indian honeybee Apis cerana indica from Tamilnadu, Southern India

Abstract :

Impacts of biostimulant, viz., water soaking, 3%, 5% and 7% panchagavya, etiolation for 10, 20 and 30 days and different media on seed germination and morphological and biochemical traits of Coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) cv. ALR-1 were assessed. Water soaking for thirty days increased seed germination and other growth related attributes. When the water soaked seed nuts were sown in different combinations of rooting media viz., vermicompost, coir compost and sand, better germination was observed in the water soaked nuts sown in sand + vermicompost (3:1) medium.
