    Abstract Ocimum sanctum L. is the most significant wellspring of medications utilized in the pharmaceutical industries and in the field of medicine. O. sanctum has a distinctive combination of pharmacological actions that support resilience and wellbeing. The secondary metabolites of O. sanctum show beneficial effects in the treatment of various diseases. This plant contains anti-oxidant properties and high amount of phenolic compounds which protect the body from toxin-induced damage. Due to its very high demand and less yield of the pharmaceutical content or secondary metabolites, there has been a persistent need to improve the productivity of the plant by using modern technology. There are various biotechnological methodologies which are utilized for the genetic improvement of this therapeutic plants viz micropropagation, direct or indirect in vitro regeneration, secondary metabolite enhancement by different types of elicitors, somatic embryogenesis and genetic transformation by various gene transfer approaches like Agrobacterium tumefiaciens, particle bombardment, etc. Genetic engineering for improvement of production of secondary metabolite and its biosynthesis pathways by overexpressing vital genes involved in the metabolite biosynthesis were reviewed. Omics techniques were also studied for understanding the genome structure, candidate genes and candidate proteins involved in secondary metabolites production. Overall, this review paper discusses the application of biotechnological techniques for enhancement of secondary metabolites production in O. sanctum.

    Abstract The Government of India implemented a nationwide lockdown from March 24, 2020 in response to the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak. This study examines the effects of two positive psychological resources on the mental health of Indian citizens during the early days of the lockdown. The effects of psychological capital (PsyCap) and internal locus of control on psychological distress of people via affect balance were tested. Data were collected through an online survey from 667 participants. Psychological distress was assessed using the GHQ-12, and affect balance was assessed as the preponderance of positive over negative affect. Results reveal that psychological capital and internal locus of control were negatively associated with psychological distress. In addition, affect balance mediated the relationship between psychological capital and psychological distress and the relationship between internal locus of control and psychological distress. Thus, both the psychological resources through affect balance acted as buffers protecting people from mental health deterioration during COVID-19 lockdown. However, the direct and indirect effects of psychological capital on psychological distress is stronger than that of internal locus of control. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.

    Abstract COVID-19 pandemic, in addition to being a global health emergency, has multiple socioeconomic and psychological ramifications. COVID-19 research and media reports have revealed a rise in fears related to contracting the virus. Though fear is a common psychological outcome during pandemics, the COVID-19 pandemic is a continuously evolving disease outbreak and has unique risk factors. Therefore, fear related to COVID-19 might manifest in not only fear and anxiety related to disease contraction and dying, but also associated sociooccupational stress. We attempt to understand the psychosocial process of the development of coronaphobia and postulate what constitutes coronaphobia, a new emerging phobia specific to COVID-19. We present a conceptual model delineating the risk factors causing coronaphobia and the underlying mechanisms, for a better understanding of its developmental process. From review of relevant research, the factors identified are, an unforeseen reality, unending uncertainties, need of acquiring new practices and avoidance behavior, loss of faith in health infrastructure, contraction of COVID-19 by head of states, cautionary statements from international bodies, and infodemia. These factors are assumed to cause interference with routine life, catastrophizing interpretation of benign symptoms, and social amplification of risk which lead to coronaphobia. The conceptualization of coronaphobia and the model will aid future research in developing psychometric measure of coronaphobia for use in clinical and research settings and design of policies and interventions for mitigating risk factors.
