Sentience of Plants towards Bioacoustics

Darshini Mahesh Pujar, Susmita Dey, K. Devi Harshitha, Sai Harini, Tejaswini Voddu, Kunta Amitesh Reddy & Thatapudi Sahaja · Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology · 2025

Plant bioacoustics is a multidisciplinary field that challenges the conventional wisdom that plants are static, unresponsive organisms by examining how they perceive, generate, and react to acoustic cues in their surroundings. There is mounting evidence that sound waves, especial...

In-silico Identification of Candidate Genes Related to Seed Zinc and Iron Concentration in Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)

Mounika Reddy Macha, Darshini Mahesh Pujar & Ravada Divya Bandhavi · Biotechnology Journal International · 2026

Zinc (Zn) and Iron (Fe) are essential nutrients, and their deficiency can cause stunted growth, weakened immunity, and anaemia. Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), a nutrient-rich legume, contains high levels of Zn and Fe, making it a valuable crop for addressing micronutrient deficie...

Studies on Genetic Variability and Heritability in Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.)

Adepu Shashi Preetham, A. Sai Harini, C. Anjali & Darshini Mahesh Pujar · Journal of Experimental Agriculture International · 2026

Forty-one genotypes of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) were evaluated for analysis of variance, genetic variability and heritability. A wide range of genetic variability was observed for eleven traits of tomato genotypes. The analysis of variance was significant for all the char...
