The Ecological Development of C4 Plants
C4 photosynthesis is a physiological phenomenon caused by a number of anatomical and metabolic components that work together to enhance CO2 concentrations near Rubisco while decreasing photorespiration
Introducing Industrial Seed Potato Variety – Valencia from Netherlands
Bangladesh stands 7th in the global ranking of potato production and grows over 10 million MT which is 3.15% of global production and most of it is table potato. Only 2% of our potatoes are processed for chips and crackers
Should we adopt More Modern Greenhouses?
In recent decades, the greenhouse industry has evolved from small-scale research or aesthetic facilities (i.e. botanic gardens) to much larger-scale industrial facilities. Currently the global greenhouse market produces nearly US$350 billion in vegetables per year
Viroscope: Plant virus identification using high-throughput sequencing data
Viroscope comprises an entire RNA high-throughput (HTS) data analysis pipeline that performs read assignment, de novo assembly with reference-based mapping, and pseudo-annotation to generate VGAC metrics (Viral Genome Assembly Coverage) and viral replica identification
Artificial Intelligence Applications for Smart Crop Breeding
Artificial intelligence (AI) is a branch of science concerned with creating computers and robots capable of reasoning, learning, and acting in ways that would ordinarily need human intelligence or that use data on a scale that people cannot analyze. AI is used in three critical components of phenomics data management: algorithms and programs for converting sensory data into phenotypic information; development of a model for understanding genotype
Bio-Organic Fertilizer: A Revolutionary Technology in Agriculture of Bangladesh
With the usage of Bio-organic fertilizer, a new scope is established in the field of rice production. This new approach can create a positive impact by substituting chemical fertilizer and eventually decreasing the subsidy of the government on chemical fertilizer. Thus, we can also save a remarkable amount of foreign currency. We know that emerging demand for food production made rice cultivation dependent on synthetic fertilizer and augmenting e
