 Animal Health Camp under TSP
In Ramathenga village of Jajpur Block, an animal
health camp-cum-awareness campaign was organized on
27 June 2018 under Tribal Sub-Plan Scheme of ICAR-
NRRI, Cuttack.About one hundred livestock sheds were
cleaned and disinfected using lime and bleaching powder
along with control measures for ticks. The affected
animals were examined by Dr. RK Mohanta and Dr. AK
Das and treatment was suggested. More than 150
livestock were examined, the most common problems
were found to be FMD, followed by ticks, internal
parasites, repeat breeding and infertility. Most of the
livestock sheds were not having pucca floor, which was
one of the factors responsible for poor health condition
and productivity status of the animals.
Training Programme on Method of Seed
Production in Vegetables
A five-days skill development training programme
for rural youth on “Method of Seed Production in
Vegetables” was organized by KVK, Cuttack from 26 to

 RESEARCH NOTE
Comparison of Grain Quality and Antioxi-
dants in Pigmented and Non-pigmented Rice
Grain quality and antioxidants such as anthocyanins,
gamma-oryzanols, phenolics and flavonoids were
compared among two un-milledpigmented rice
(Mamihunger, Chakhao) genotypes and two un-milled non-
pigmented rice (CR1014, Bindli) genotypes. Both the
pigmented genotyopes contained 9-11 times higher
concentrations of antioxidant compounds as compared to
the non-pigmented genotypes (Table1). Among the
pigmented genotypes, Mamihunger showed higher
concentration of all the compounds when compared with
Chakhao. The grain quality data (Table 2) revealed
significant difference among the selected genotypes for nine
out of thirteen quality parameters analyzed for the study.
Despite significant difference for Amylose content (AC%)
and Kernel Breadth (KB, mm); the Head Rice Recovery%
(HRR%) among the two pigmented genotypes remains the
same. Though the pigmented rice genotypes were
categorized as sticky based on their AC%, the value is higher
for Mamihunger. Bindli which is non pigmented, was also
found to be sticky with a soft gel consistency (GC, mm) like
the pigmented genotypes. CR1014, another non pigmented
genotype in the study, recognized for its superior eating
and cooking quality, showed intermediate AC% and GC.
Kernel Length after Cooking (KLAC, mm) was highest for
Mamihunger (pigmented) followed by Bindli (non-
pigmented) among all the four genotypes while Water
Uptake (WU, ml/100mg) was found to be higher among
the pigmented rice than the non-pigmented genotypes.
Therefore, Mamihunger can be a better choice over Chakhao
for genetic improvement to reach a wider market of red
rice preferring consumers.

 Activation of Tos17 (Transposon of
Oryza sativa) in Doubled Haploid Lines
Derived Through and Rogenesis from
Indica Rice Hybrids
Gene inactivation approache is a powerful tool for
determining biological function of the genes. Among the
gene inactivation strategies, insertion mutagenesis using
transposable elements is one of the suitable tools for the
systematic functional analysis of a large number of genes.
The disruption of gene function through insertional
mutagenesis is generally applicable for rice because of
ease of transformation and regeneration as compared to
other recalcitrant crops. Rice consists of about 32 families
of retrotransposons and the most active one is Tos17
which induces partial or complete inactivation of the gene
leading to identification of the function of the gene.
 Usually, Tos17 exists in two copies in the Nipponbare
genome (n = 12 and 379 Mb) which are inactive in the
plants grown under normal conditions. However, the
copy located on chromosome 7 can be activated in the
plants generated through tissue culture. Hence, mutations
induced by Tos17 insertion are fixed and inherited stably
in the next generations. Additionally, reverse-genetics
studies and PCR-based screening of mutants by
sequencing flanking regions of Tos17-insertion sites have
clearly demonstrated that the Tos17 system can
significantly contribute to the functional genomics of rice.
A preliminary study was carried out to check the
presence of Tos17 copy numbers using two doubled
haploid lines derived from a hybrid (27P63) using the
identified markers which could focus an idea regarding
the activation of Tos17 copy numbers during
androgenesisin vitro. Thermal asymmetric interlaced
(TAIL)-PCR was used to amplify Tos17-flanking genomic
regions. Three nested Tos17-LTR-specific primers, Tos17
TAIL2, Tos17 TAIL3, and Tos17 TAIL4 were used together
with each of the three arbitrary primers, AD1, AD2, and
AD3. The PCR amplifications showed a single copy in
hybrid rice (27P63) while 3-4 copy numbers were
observed in DH lines (Fig.1). The amplified products from
the third-round amplification were eluted and
subsequently purified using SV gel and PCR clean up
System (Promega, USA) and transformed with the E. coli
competent cell (DH 5±) for gene cloning which are ready
for sequencing to identify the positional insertion in the
genome. The phenotypic differences were observed in
the hybrid and doubled haploid lines (Fig.2). It showed
that androgenesis could be a novel approach for
generating mutant lines which could be utilized in rice
improvement after identification of flanking sequence of
insertion of Tos17 and subsequent phenotypic
characterization.

Standardization of q-PCR–based Functional
Genes Related to Nitrogen Transformation
Nitrogen cycle is a process in which the nitrogen is
reached to plants through different steps i.e., nitrate
assimilation, ammonification, nitrification, denitrification,
biological nitrogen fixation. Many of those processes are
carried out by microbes, which have been regulated by
mainly four functional genes (nifH, amoA, nirK and nosZ).
The primary nitrogenase enzyme encoded by the nifH gene,
which converts atmospheric N2 to ammonia. Ammonium
monooxygenase enzyme encoded by the amoA gene
which converts ammonia to either nitrate or nitrite. Nitrite
reductase and nitrous oxide reductase enzymes encoded
by nirK and nosZ genes, respectively and these are responsible
for denitrification reaction. Various methodology viz.,
spectrophotometers and PCR-based techniques are
available to quantify these genes in agricultural soils;
however, q-PCR-based methodology has not been
systematically standardized. Therefore, a simple q-PCR-
based methodology has been standardized by us for
absolute quantification of nifH, amoA, nirK and nosZ(Fig. 3).

 Evaluation of Rice Plant as a Periphytic
Substrate in Rice-Fish System
A field experiment was conducted with the objective
to evaluate the rice plant as a periphytic substrate under
integrated rice-fish system. Five treatments T1 (Rice
Alone), T2 (Rice + Rohu) and T3 (Rice + Catla), T4 (Rice
+ Mrigal) and T5 (Rice + Polyculture) were taken in
randomized block design with four replications. The high
Dry Matter (DM), Ash content, and low Ash free Dry
Matter (AFDM) content in T1 (Rice Alone), T3 (Rice +
Catla) and T4 (Rice + Mrigal) may be corroborated to the
shading effect as because of none grazing of peri-phyton.
The high AFDM and low ash content in T2 (Rice + Rohu)
and T5 (Rice + Polyculture) may be due to grazing of
peri-phyton by rohu, a potential grazer.

Survey of Rice False Smut for
Disease Incidence and Yield Loss
On 12th and 19th December 2017, a survey for Rice false
smut was undertaken in the paddy fields located in Kisan
Nagar, Chandikhole, Jajpur and Cuttack regions of
Odisha. Out of 20 only three varieties were disease free
while the remaining varieties showed 6-33% incidence.
The highest disease incidence was observed in Pooja
followed by Varshadhan and Sarala. The number of
infected tillers ranged from 1-5, whereas the number of
smutted ball fluctuated from 1-22 ball/hill. The weight
of healthy panicle was relatively higher than the smut
panicles. The number of grain was higher in healthy
panicle than the smut panicle.

 Fig. 4. Yield loss in rice due to false smut in 20 varieties
The 1000 weight of healthy grain was higher than the
smut grain. The yield loss in different rice varieties ranged
between 0.10 to 5.14%. The highest yield loss occurred from
Moti followed by Gayatri. The false smut caused yield loss
due to reduction in weight of panicle, reduction in number
of grains and increasing chaffiness on the diseased plant.

Molecular Identification of Blast Resistant Gene
in Traditional Landraces from Chhattisgarh
In blast disease study, identification of major blast
resistance genes was investigated in Chhattisgarh
landraces. Based on phenotypic screening, landraces were
classified into three distinct groups: highly resistant (9),
moderately resistant (51) and susceptible (36). The presence
of Pib, Pi5, Pi56(t) and Pi1 was detected in 6, 8, 18 and 20
landraces with gene frequencies varied from 6.25% to
20.83%. Population structure analysis grouped the
landraces into two sub-populations with few admixtures
(Fig. 5). The principal coordinate and cluster analysis
categorized the landraces into three groups. Analysis of
molecular variance showed maximum (95%) diversity
within the population and least (5%) between populations.
Association analysis identified only two markers (CRG-4
and RM1233) to be significantly associated with the blast

PCR based Identification and
Characterization of Lipopeptides Producing
Bacillus Against Bipolaris oryzae
Antagonistic potential of forty Bacillus spp. against
Bipolarisoryzae under in vitro situation were tested. Ten
effective strains against B. oryzae were selected among
them and characterized at molecular level. The 16S rRNA
gene sequences showed 99-100% homology to other 16S
rRNA gene of Bacillus spp. within the NCBI, Genbank.
Among the ten strains, four strains viz., BS1 (MH257581),
BS6 (MH251943), BS16 (MH257584) and BS26
(MH257586) were identified as B. subtilis; two strains BS10
(MH257582) and BS39 (MH251913) as B. cereus; while,
strains BS5 (MH251872), BS11 (MH257583), BS17
(MH257585) and BS32 (MH257588) were identified as B.
amyloliquefaciens, B. megaterium, B. luciferensis and B.
toyonensis,respectively.The antibiotic biosynthetic genes
responsible for the production of bacillomycin, bacilysin,
iturin,surfactin, subtilin, mersacidin, subtilosin, ericin,
mycosubtilin and fengycin from the effective strains were
detected by PCR analysis. Among the strains, BS5 exerted
higher mycelial growth inhibition (76.66%) of the
pathogen and possesses the maximum number (9) of
antibiotic genes as well. The efficacy of liquid formulation
of the strains BS5, BS6 and BS39 against B. oryzae under
g l a s s h o u s e
conditions were
studied. Glasshouse

 Effect of different Systemic and
Combination Fungicides on the Growth of
Fusarium fujikuroi Causing Rice Bakanae
Disease under in-vitro and in-vivo
Ten selected fungicides were evaluated for their
efficacy against Fusariumfujikuroi causing bakanae disease
or rice under in vitro and pot experiments. All tested
fungicides showed significant variation in inhibiting the
growth of the pathogen (Fig. 7). The results showed that
minimum complete inhibitory concentration (MIC) was
found in Carbendazim, Tebuconazole and carboxin 37.5
% +Thiram 37.5 % (Vitavax Power) at 5 ppm
concentration. It was followed by Trifloxistrobin +
Tebuconazole (Nativo), Carbendazim + Mancozeb and
propiconazole (10 ppm). Least inhibition was observed
in Azoxystrobin at 50 ppm. Seed treatment was carried
out with three best in vitro
treatments such as
Carbendazime 50% WP,
Tebuconazole and carboxin 37.5
% +Thiram 37.5% (Vitavax
Power) @ 0.1% under pots. All
the treatments significantly
increased germination and vigor
index of the seedlings and
reduced disease incidence in
three test varieties such as Pooja,
Naveen and Pusa Basmati 1121,
compared to control.

Reorienting Agricultural Research for
Improving Profitability and Sustainability
Indian agriculture undoubtedly has made tremendous
progress over the years. However, it is also facing
unprecedented challenges in recent years. In current year
(2017-18), food grain production has touched all time high
of about 285 million tons (Mt). Production of all crops has
established a new record with rice 113 Mt (paddy 170 Mt),
wheat 100 Mt, nutri/course cereals 47 Mt, maize 29 Mt
and pulses 25 Mt. The country also harvested a record
production of horticultural crops, livestock, fisheries and
aquaculture. However, the challenges are also enormous.
Low and uncertain income, degraded natural resource
base, growing labor and energy shortages and threats of
climate change are making Indian agriculture highly
vulnerable and unsustainable. Uncertainties in monsoon
and market are increasing the disparity and drudgery of
farmers in almost all parts of the country. With all these,
Indian agriculture seems to be in a cross-road once again.
To address these challenges and uncertainties, research
and development in agriculture need re-orientation in a
big way. Indian agriculture should readjust itself from
productivity to profit-driven; discovery to delivery-driven;
output to outcome-driven; self to society-driven; process
to product-driven; long-term to short and medium-term
oriented; qualitative to quantitative oriented; knowledge
to resource generation oriented; individual to team
oriented and public fund to private fund-driven.
In recent time, several steps have been initiated to
reorient the functioning of research and development
organizations in the country. Increasing farmers’ income,
besides increasing productivity and improving quality
of crops, has become the main thrust of agricultural
research. Improving and sustaining the natural resource
base have also taken the central stage. Environmental
pollution and climate change have emerged as the major
drivers of research and development of in the country.
Scientific community should embrace these changes
and challenges to reorient the research programmes for
making Indian agriculture productive, profitable, climate
resilient and sustainable.
