In this present era of "Genomics, " the genomes of many different organisms or plant species are already sequenced and some are being sequenced. As a result, a huge repository of unknown genes or genes with unknown functions has developed and 'functional genomics' has to deal with the problems of such'unknowns'. We have constructed a novel VIGS vector, using the minimal replicon region of the DNA-A component of the geminivirus, Mung bean Yello...

This book integrates policy, technology, and action research methods linking energy and rural development issues in providing new perspectives for Asian village decision makers seeking effective uses of energy in important rural tasks.

This book describes a broad research program on quantum communication. Here, a cryptographic key is exchanged by two parties using quantum states of light and the security of the system arises from the fundamental properties of quantum mechanics. The author developed new communication protocols using high-dimensional quantum states so that more than one classical bit is transferred by each photon. This approach helps circumvent some of the non...

This volume had its origin at a conference held in 1978 at the East- West Center that considered the short- and long-term energy problems of the Asia-Pacific region. A grant was then awarded from the Agency for International Development for the purpose of initiating a collaborative, multi-country study of rural energy problems.

TRAVEL TALES is a collection of short stories written by A.B.M. Nurul Islam based on his observations while working and traveling through the vast swathe of the earth extending from the Land of the Rising Sun (Japan) on the east, through the Central Asian Republics of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan in the middle, to the Atlantic shores of Europe on the west. The author while working to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons as a Safeguards Inspector...

Bangladesh, with a population nearing 160 million, is one of the poorest countries in the world while also being one of the most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. In fisheries sector about 12 million people are working directly or indirectly in this field and also about 1.2 million people are full time engaged. Fishing community is one of the most vulnerable communities to in Bangladesh. Over the years, economic condition of the fis...

An investigation was conducted for obtaining information on the reduction of postharvest losses, pattern of physical, biochemical and mineral content changes, storability as well as shelf life of postharvest mango. The trials included four different experiments involving two factors where variety was a factor comprising of Langra and Khirshapat. These varieties were treated with different postharvest treatments viz., control, paraffin coating,...

Jute is one of the most important crops in Bangladesh and its quality, to a great extent, depends on the system used for drying the fibre. In this study, a solar drying system for jute fibre is developed in order to improve the quality of raw-jute and jute products. A thorough review of existing literature is presented in order to exhibit the current state-of-art of fibre drying. The solar energy availability is reviewed also in the context of...
