To Assess the Efficacy of Various Disinfection and Hemostasis Procedures in Providing Postoperative Pain Relief Following Pulpotomy in Cases of Symptomatic Irreversible Pulpitis.

Aim: The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of various disinfection and hemostasis procedures in providing postoperative pain relief following pulpotomy in cases of symptomatic irreversible pulpitis.

Materials And Methods: The data from a cohort of 50 patients who received treatment with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and another cohort of 50 patients who received treatment with potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser were subjected to analysis. The patients were provided a questionnaire to evaluate pain levels before and after surgery.

Marker-assisted improvement of the elite restorer line of rice, RPHR-1005 for resistance against bacterial blight and blast diseases.

This study was carried out to improve the RPHR-1005, a stable restorer line of the popular medium slender grain type rice hybrid, DRRH-3 for bacterial blight (BB) and blast resistance through marker-assisted backcross breeding (MABB). Two major BB resistance genes, Xa21 and Xa33 and a major blast resistance gene, Pi2 were transferred to RPHR-1005 as two individual crosses. Foreground selection for Xa21, Xa33, Pi2, Rf3 and Rf4 was done by using gene-specific functional markers, while 59 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers polymorphic between the donors and recipient parents were used to select the best plant possessing target resistance genes at each backcross generation.

Effects of nitrogen on egg-laying inhibition and ovicidal response in planthopper-resistant rice varieties.

A series of experiments was set up to examine the effects of nitrogen on rice ( L.) resistance against (Stål) and (Horváth). Egg laying by was reduced on the variety IR60.

Development of Gene-Pyramid Lines of the Elite Restorer Line, RPHR-1005 Possessing Durable Bacterial Blight and Blast Resistance.

RPHR-1005, the stable restorer line of the popular medium slender (MS) grain type rice hybrid, DRRH-3 was improved in this study for resistance against bacterial blight (BB) and blast diseases through marker-assisted backcross breeding (MABB). In this study, four major resistance genes (i.e.

A putative candidate for the recessive gall midge resistance gene gm3 in rice identified and validated.

We report here tagging and fine-mapping of gm3 gene, development of a functional marker for it and its use in marker-assisted selection. The recessive rice gall midge resistance gene, gm3 identified in the rice breeding line RP2068-18-3-5 confers resistance against five of the seven Indian biotypes of the Asian rice gall midge Orseolia oryzae. We report here tagging and fine-mapping of gm3 gene, development of a functional marker for it and demonstrated its use in marker-assisted selection (MAS).
