Bipin Kumar Chaudhary gave a presentation on canopy architecture. He discussed that a canopy is the top layer of overlapping leaves and branches in a wooded area. It provides habitat for animals and influences plant and animal reproduction. A canopy helps prevent soil erosion and regulates temperature. Chaudhary described the different layers of a canopy - the overstory layer consists of emergent giant trees, the canopy layer is the primary habitat, the understory layer has dense growth below the canopy, and the forest floor receives no sunlight.

Nursery management part 2
Nursery management part 2Dr. P.B.Dharmasena This document provides information on irrigation, weed, nutrient, pest, and disease management for nursery plants. It discusses best practices for irrigation such as using sprinklers instead of flood irrigation. Weed management includes timely weeding and using decomposed organic matter instead of fresh compost. Nutrient management involves using organic fertilizers like compost and manures. Common pests like aphids, caterpillars, and diseases like damping off and powdery mildew are described along with symptoms and organic control methods.
Abscission
AbscissionHalala Rahman Abscission is the process by which plant organs such as leaves, flowers, and fruits become detached from the plant in a controlled manner. It occurs through the formation of an abscission zone, a layer of weak-walled cells located at the base of the petiole or other structure. Abscission is controlled by the plant hormones auxin and ethylene, with decreasing auxin and increasing ethylene levels initiating cell wall degradation in the abscission zone. This allows separation of plant organs through a combination of enzymatic breakdown and mechanical forces. Abscission aids in shedding organs no longer needed by the plant and occurs in response to environmental and developmental signals.

Fruit set, growth & developmental stages of various fruits
Fruit set, growth & developmental stages of various fruitsMANDEEP KAUR Fruit set occurs after pollen fertilizes eggs in ovaries. Fertilized eggs form seeds which stimulate fruit growth. The final fruit form depends on contributing floral organs and their development. Many factors influence fruit set including temperature, moisture, chemicals, nutrients, tree factors, and pollination mechanisms. Proper management of these factors can help maximize fruit set and yields.
Canopy
CanopyPawan Nagar This document discusses canopy management practices for guava trees, specifically pruning. It notes that canopy management is an important practice that forms the basis for fruit tree precociousness and longevity. Regular pruning is essential to induce new growth and provide maximum fruit-bearing area over the tree. Pruning helps control tree size, stimulate flowering and fruiting, improve fruit quality by increasing sunlight penetration, and make other horticultural practices more efficient. The ideal guava tree structure from pruning is dwarf, spreading, with an open canopy.
Physiological, anatomical and biochemical aspects of root
Physiological, anatomical and biochemical aspects of rootAsish Benny Cuttings are a common method of vegetative propagation where a detached part of a plant is placed in a rooting medium to form adventitious roots and shoots. Adventitious root formation is a complex process involving biochemical, physiological and anatomical changes. Key factors that influence rooting include the physiological condition and maturity of the mother plant, presence of leaves and buds, type of wood, season, and treatment of cuttings with growth regulators, minerals, and wounding. Proper treatment of cuttings can optimize root initiation and development.
fruit drop
fruit dropVishnu Mishra This study evaluated the effects of training systems and NAA application on bell pepper production in a polyhouse. The experiment consisted of three training systems (staking, bush and single stem) and two NAA concentrations (0 and 50 ppm). Results showed that the single stem training system with 50 ppm NAA application produced the highest yield, lowest fruit drop and highest fruit quality. This was due to increased plant height, more number of fruits per plant and reduced premature fruit drop from the application of NAA under the single stem system. Thus, the single stem training system with NAA was most effective for improving bell pepper production in polyhouse conditions.

Antitranspirants and their effect on crop O.P PARIHAR This document discusses antitranspirants and their effects on crops. It defines antitranspirants as compounds that reduce water loss through transpiration without significantly impacting plant growth or photosynthesis. There are four types of antitranspirants: stomatal closing, filmforming, reflecting, and growth retardants. The document provides examples of how antitranspirants have been shown to improve wheat, maize, barley and soybean yields under drought conditions by reducing water loss from the plants. However, it also notes that antitranspirants can potentially reduce photosynthesis and increase leaf temperatures if used.
Fruit Drop its Causes and Measures to Control
Fruit Drop its Causes and Measures to ControlMd Mohsin Ali Fruit drop is a premature shedding of fruits before harvesting for commercial purpose. There are so many reasons for fruit drop like internal (Hormonal balance, morphological and genetically) and external (biotic and abiotic) factors. Fruit drop is very much serious in some fruits like apple, peach, currant, mango, citrus etc. Fruit drop may occur at various stages of fruit growth, starting right from fruit setting till its harvesting. It may be natural, environmental or pest related. Losses due to fruit drop at various stages have long been a serious threat to the fruit growers. After determining the actual cause of fruit drop, adoption of a suitable control measure can bring relief to the growers. Among different drops, pre-harvest drop is of great economic importance which can cause serious crop loss to farmer.

Muthu's Project-1.pdf
Muthu's Project-1.pdfMANOJR340129 This document discusses the structure and importance of forest canopies. It begins by describing an experiment to study tree canopy architecture by observing various features like storeys, shape, leaf type, and special features. It then explains that canopy trees form the upper layer and intercept most sunlight, supporting primary productivity. The canopy provides habitat for unique biodiversity and intercepts 95% of sunlight in rainforests. Forest canopy structure influences temperature, wind, rain protection and creates niches that support more biodiversity. Canopy structure is important for ecosystem services like water filtration and soil protection.
Tropical Rainforest Biome
Tropical Rainforest BiomeHanna Elise The tropical rainforest is Earth's most biologically diverse biome. It has four distinct layers - the emergent layer of tall trees, the upper canopy layer where most animals live, the understory layer of shrubs and small trees with constant high humidity, and the dark forest floor that receives less than 1% of sunlight. Despite low-nutrient soils from heavy rainfall and weathering, the rainforest supports a wide variety of adapted plant and animal species through nutrient recycling and specialized structures for gathering light.
Tropical rainforest
Tropical rainforest4udaniel This document summarizes key aspects of tropical rainforests, including their location, climate characteristics, soil type, vegetation layers, threats, and causes of deforestation. Tropical rainforests are located between 5-10 degrees north and south of the equator in countries like Brazil, Indonesia, and the Amazon Basin. They have high temperatures, rainfall, and humidity that support the growth of deep, nutrient-poor soils and several vegetation layers ranging from emergent trees to an understory. Common threats include slash-and-burn agriculture, fires, logging, cattle ranching, and agriculture which have significantly reduced tropical rainforest coverage due to unsustainable practices.

- The Amazon River runs through 7 South American countries and is approximately 6,400 km long, reaching over 190 km wide during the wet season.
- There are over 3,000 known fish species in the Amazon River, and it is home to piranhas and anacondas.
- The document also describes the four layers that make up the structure of the Amazon rainforest: the emergent layer, canopy layer, understory layer, and forest floor.
ch 17 ppt class7.pptx
ch 17 ppt class7.pptxShanviShakya The document discusses the structure and importance of forests. It describes the three main layers of a forest: the canopy layer formed by the tops of tall trees that lets in little sunlight; the understory layer of smaller trees and shrubs below the canopy; and the forest floor that receives the least sunlight and supports mosses and lichens. Forests are important as they provide wood and other products, maintain the balance of gases in the atmosphere through photosynthesis, and help regulate the water cycle. Their preservation is crucial for environmental and human well-being.
Rainforest Ppp
Rainforest PppKim Rainforests are dense forests found in hot, wet regions that receive at least 254 cm of rainfall annually. They are important because they generate most of the Earth's oxygen and are home to millions of plant and animal species. There are two main types of rainforests - tropical rainforests near the equator with consistent high temperatures and rainfall throughout the year, and temperate rainforests along coastal regions in temperate zones. Rainforests have four layers - the emergent layer at the top which is sunny, the canopy layer where most trees grow, the understory layer with dense vegetation below the canopy, and the dark forest floor covered in dead leaves and plants.
Tropical rainforest
Tropical rainforestrohaankhan14 Tropical rainforests have four distinct layers - the emergent layer, canopy layer, understory layer, and forest floor layer. The emergent layer contains the tallest trees that rise above all other plants. The dense canopy layer is where most plant and animal life exists. The understory layer contains smaller trees and plants growing below the canopy. Finally, the dark and damp forest floor receives only 2% of sunlight. Tropical rainforests are located between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn and can be found in parts of Central and South America, Africa, India, Southeast Asia, New Guinea, and Australia.

On the Lunar Origin of Near-Earth Asteroid 2024 PT5
On the Lunar Origin of Near-Earth Asteroid 2024 PT5Sérgio Sacani The near-Earth asteroid (NEA) 2024 PT5 is on an Earth-like orbit that remained in Earth's immediate vicinity for several months at the end of 2024. PT5's orbit is challenging to populate with asteroids originating from the main belt and is more commonly associated with rocket bodies mistakenly identified as natural objects or with debris ejected from impacts on the Moon. We obtained visible and near-infrared reflectance spectra of PT5 with the Lowell Discovery Telescope and NASA Infrared Telescope Facility on 2024 August 16. The combined reflectance spectrum matches lunar samples but does not match any known asteroid types—it is pyroxene-rich, while asteroids of comparable spectral redness are olivine-rich. Moreover, the amount of solar radiation pressure observed on the PT5 trajectory is orders of magnitude lower than what would be expected for an artificial object. We therefore conclude that 2024 PT5 is ejecta from an impact on the Moon, thus making PT5 the second NEA suggested to be sourced from the surface of the Moon. While one object might be an outlier, two suggest that there is an underlying population to be characterized. Long-term predictions of the position of 2024 PT5 are challenging due to the slow Earth encounters characteristic of objects in these orbits. A population of near-Earth objects that are sourced by the Moon would be important to characterize for understanding how impacts work on our nearest neighbor and for identifying the source regions of asteroids and meteorites from this understudied population of objects on very Earth-like orbits.

whole ANATOMY OF EYE with eye ball .pptx
whole ANATOMY OF EYE with eye ball .pptxsimranjangra13 The human eye is a complex organ responsible for vision, composed of various structures working together to capture and process light into images. The key components include the sclera, cornea, iris, pupil, lens, retina, optic nerve, and various fluids like aqueous and vitreous humor. The eye is divided into three main layers: the fibrous layer (sclera and cornea), the vascular layer (uvea, including the choroid, ciliary body, and iris), and the neural layer (retina).
Here's a more detailed look at the eye's anatomy:
1. Outer Layer (Fibrous Layer):
Sclera:
The tough, white outer layer that provides shape and protection to the eye.
Cornea:
The transparent, clear front part of the eye that helps focus light entering the eye.
2. Middle Layer (Vascular Layer/Uvea):
Choroid:
A layer of blood vessels located between the retina and the sclera, providing oxygen and nourishment to the outer retina.
Ciliary Body:
A ring of tissue behind the iris that produces aqueous humor and controls the shape of the lens for focusing.
Iris:
The colored part of the eye that controls the size of the pupil, regulating the amount of light entering the eye.
Pupil:
The black opening in the center of the iris that allows light to enter the eye.
3. Inner Layer (Neural Layer):
Retina:
The light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye that converts light into electrical signals that are sent to the brain via the optic nerve.
Optic Nerve:
A bundle of nerve fibers that carries visual signals from the retina to the brain.
4. Other Important Structures:
Lens:
A transparent, flexible structure behind the iris that focuses light onto the retina.
Aqueous Humor:
A clear, watery fluid that fills the space between the cornea and the lens, providing nourishment and maintaining eye shape.
Vitreous Humor:
A clear, gel-like substance that fills the space between the lens and the retina, helping maintain eye shape.
Macula:
A small area in the center of the retina responsible for sharp, central vision.
Fovea:
The central part of the macula with the highest concentration of cone cells, providing the sharpest vision.
These structures work together to allow us to see, with the light entering the eye being focused by the cornea and lens onto the retina, where it is converted into electrical signals that are transmitted to the brain for interpretation.
he eye sits in a protective bony socket called the orbit. Six extraocular muscles in the orbit are attached to the eye. These muscles move the eye up and down, side to side, and rotate the eye.
The extraocular muscles are attached to the white part of the eye called the sclera. This is a strong layer of tissue that covers nearly the entire surface of the eyeball.he layers of the tear film keep the front of the eye lubricated.
Tears lubricate the eye and are made up of three layers. These three layers together are called the tear film. The mucous layer is made by the conjunctiva. The watery part of the tears is made by the lacrimal gland

Direct Evidence for r-process Nucleosynthesis in Delayed MeV Emission from th...Sérgio Sacani The origin of heavy elements synthesized through the rapid neutron capture process (r-process) has been an enduring mystery for over half a century. J. Cehula et al. recently showed that magnetar giant flares, among the brightest transients ever observed, can shock heat and eject neutron star crustal material at high velocity, achieving the requisite conditions for an r-process.A. Patel et al. confirmed an r-process in these ejecta using detailed nucleosynthesis calculations. Radioactive decay of the freshly synthesized nuclei releases a forest of gamma-ray lines, Doppler broadened by the high ejecta velocities v 0.1c into a quasi-continuous spectrum peaking around 1 MeV. Here, we show that the predicted emission properties (light curve, fluence, and spectrum) match a previously unexplained hard gamma-ray signal seen in the aftermath of the famous 2004 December giant flare from the magnetar SGR 1806–20. This MeV emission component, rising to peak around 10 minutes after the initial spike before decaying away over the next few hours, is direct observational evidence for the synthesis of ∼10−6 Me of r-process elements. The discovery of magnetar giant flares as confirmed r-process sites, contributing at least ∼1%–10% of the total Galactic abundances, has implications for the Galactic chemical evolution, especially at the earliest epochs probed by low-metallicity stars. It also implicates magnetars as potentially dominant sources of heavy cosmic rays. Characterization of the r-process emission from giant flares by resolving decay line features offers a compelling science case for NASA’s forthcomingCOSI nuclear spectrometer, as well as next-generation MeV telescope missions.

Presentation on canopy architecture
- 1. PRESENTATION ON:- CANOPY ARCHITECTURE Speaker:- Bipin Kumar Chaudhary Department of Plant Physiology M.Sc.(Ag.) Previous 2nd Semester
- 2. INTRODUCTION The top layer of a plant or wooded ecosystem consisting of overlapping leaves and branches of trees, shrubs, or both. Canopy is a habitat for many kind of animals. All species of the plants and animals are evolve to adapt with the environment. Canopy is important to the soil and its component.
- 3. FUNCTIONS OF CANOPY Influence the sexual reproduction of trees. Provide unique habitat for wildlife and other biota. Affect temperature and primary production of aquatic habitat by shading. Prevent extreme soil erosion by decrease the impact of rainfall which is the canopy raindrop take 5 to 10 minutes to reach forest floor.
- 5. OVERSTORY LAYER Also called emergent layer. Consists of giant emergent trees that tower above the surrounding canopy. The air is much drier and moderately strong winds blow through their branches.
- 6. CANOPY LAYER Found directly beneath the overstory layer (emergent layer). The primary life sustaining layer with an abundance of food and forms a natural roof over the remaining two layers beneath. Absorbs ultra-violet rays from the sun protecting the plant and animals species beneath the canopy layer from UV rays. A home to many species, including birds, butterflies, monkeys, parrots, the slow moving sloth, tree frogs, etc.
- 7. UNDERSTORY LAYER Directly underneath the canopy layer and on top of the forest floor. Growth here is very dense. This layer is a dark, sometimes almost impenetrable natural habitat like vines, shrub and broadleaf trees.
- 8. FOREST FLOOR The Forest Floor is the ground layer. No sunlight reaches the Forest Floor so it is very dark. Quality of the soil is extremely poor and very few plants are found growing in this area. Examples of the plants are mosses, ferns and some low growth plants and vine roots. It is rich in microorganisms and this environment makes quick work of decomposition making a natural compost that is exceeding rich in nutrients.
