Hybridization Techniques in Cereals
The document discusses hybridization techniques in various cereal crops. It begins by explaining the basic concepts of hybridization, including inter-varietal and distant hybridization. It then describes the key techniques for hybridization in different cereals like rice, wheat, maize, sorghum, pearl millet and finger millet. The techniques involve selection of parents, emasculation of the female parent to remove male parts, artificial pollination using pollen from the male parent, bagging of the crossed flowers, harvesting and selection of hybrid seeds. Emasculation methods discussed are clipping, hot water, vacuum etc. Hybridization allows creation of genetic variation for crop improvement.
Emasculation and hybridization in rice
Hybridization is a technique used in rice breeding to create genetically diverse varieties with desirable traits. The process involves crossing genetically dissimilar parents to produce hybrid offspring. Key steps include selecting female plants, emasculating unopened flowers to prevent self-pollination, collecting pollen from the desired male parent, and applying it to the emasculated female flowers. The hybridized seeds are then grown and evaluated to select varieties with increased yield, quality, disease resistance, and other targeted traits. Maintaining genetic diversity through hybridization techniques has been important for the health and productivity of rice crops globally.

Crop damage by insects
Insects can damage crops in many ways. Chewing insects like caterpillars and beetles directly damage plants by eating foliage, stems, bark, fruits and roots. Piercing-sucking insects like aphids and whiteflies feed on plant sap and can transmit diseases. Their feeding can cause yellow spots, stunted growth, curling or twisting of leaves. Insect borers tunnel into and feed within plant structures like stems, roots, fruits, grains, causing wilting or making crops unfit for consumption. Gall forming insects induce swollen plant growths. Defoliators, leafminers and armyworms can completely strip plants of foliage. Insects affect most parts of plants and can severely impact crop yields if

Chemistry of cereals
Cereals:
Cereals form the major source of food.
The composition of cereal grains varies greatly due to
The genetic makeup of the plant
Soil factors
Climatic factors
Cultural practices
Cereals include rice, wheat, maize, sorghum, barley, etc
They comes under the family gramineae, i.e grass family.
Chemistry of cereal crops deals about chemical constituents :
Carbohydrates
Fats
Proteins
Ash
Nutrients like Ca,P
Vitamins
Toxins
Cereals are the major part of Indian diet so also known as staple foods.
The 80% percent of the dry matter in grains is carbohydrate, mainly the starch therefore, they are considered as the main energy providing crops.
Cereals provide 350 kcal of energy per 100 grams to the body.
Cereals contain 6-12% of protein
The whole grain form of cereal is more nutritious than milled one as it contains greater levels of B-complex vitamins, dietary fibre and essential fatty acids.
Cereals low in proteins.
High in Nitrogen Free Extract which includes the carbohydrates such as starch, dextrin, soluble sugars.
Starch constitutes more than 90% of NFE.
Grains, hulls and bran – rich in cellulose, pentosans and ash constituents.
germ or embryo – higher oil content, crude protein, sugar and minerals.
Endosperm – starch.
Abundant constituent of cereal plant system (80-95%).
With maturity water content decreases in plant.
CARBOHYDRATES:
Generally cereals rich in carbohydrates.
It ranges from 70-80%.
83% of total dry matter of wheat, barley, rye, maize, sorghum
and rice and 79% of oats.
Carbohydrates in cereal grains include more than 90% of starch.
Dextrin occurs in small amounts.
Bran chiefly contains pentosans and some cellulose and lignin.
Germ tissues have sucrose.
PROTEINS:
Cereal proteins are simple proteins in composition.
Conjugated proteins like nucleoproteins are concentrated mostly in the germ.
The simple proteins yield α- amino acids on hydrolysis.
Among simple proteins, cereal grains found to have
1) water soluble proteins (albumins)
2) salt soluble proteins (globulins)
3) alcohol soluble proteins (prolamines)
4) acids and alkali soluble proteins (glutuleins)
In cereals 6-12%

Feed supplements provide vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and other additives. The document also describes various unconventional ingredients and how to classify feedstuffs for poultry based on their energy, protein, and filler content.
Technology of cereals - pigeonpeas
Pigeon peas are one of the most important legume crops grown in India and other parts of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. It is a rich source of protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, and fiber. India contributes over 96% of global pigeonpea production, with Gujarat being a major production region. Pigeon peas grow well in hot, dry climates and tolerate drought. They are commonly consumed as split peas or in dishes like sambar. Processing methods like soaking, dehulling, splitting and drying improve nutritional value and reduce cooking time. Pigeon peas can be used to develop weaning foods, composite flours, and bakery products to enhance protein intake.
Unconventional feed resources
The non-conventional feed resources (NCFR) refer to all those feeds that have not been traditionally used in animal feeding and or are not normally used in commercially produced rations for livestock.
NCFR include commonly, a variety of feeds from perennial crops and feeds of animal and industrial origin.

The potential use of rice waste lignocellulose and its amendments as substrat...
This document discusses using rice lignocellulose waste as a substrate for cultivating the oyster mushroom Pleurotus eous. It finds that amendment or supplementation of the rice straw substrate with rice bran or composting did not significantly enhance mushroom yield. Yields on unfermented rice straw and straw composted for 4-8 days were comparable, with biological efficiencies of 53.3-72.8% and 67.1-75.1%, respectively. The fruiting bodies from different substrates contained varying levels of nutrients but met recommended mineral levels. While heavy metals were detected, they were below safe limits. Overall, rice lignocellulose showed potential as an alternative substrate for P. eous cultivation.

The process of listening
Listening is a complex process that involves hearing, choosing to focus attention, understanding meanings, and responding. It is important for school, relationships, work, and decision making. There are barriers like distractions, unfamiliar language, and beliefs that can interfere with listening. The steps in the listening process are receiving sound through hearing, paying attention, understanding meanings, remembering, evaluating messages, and responding. Factors like noise, barriers, and memory affect our ability to listen effectively.
Theories on heterosis
Charles Darwin observed that crossed plants of Linaria vulgaris were taller and more vigorous than self-fertilized plants of the same species. Heterosis, coined by Shull in 1952, refers to the increased performance of F1 hybrid plants compared to the average of their inbred parental lines, in traits like biomass, size, yield and resistance. There are several hypotheses for heterosis, including dominance, overdominance and epistasis models. The dominance model proposes that superior performance is due to dominant alleles masking recessive alleles, while the overdominance model suggests heterozygosity itself provides benefits over either homozygote.
