    Abstract The dataset primarily focused on selecting genotypes of sweet oranges based on their phenotypic performances. The dataset resulted significant variations in the best linear unbiased predictions (BLUPs) of 20 out of 21 traits, including leaves, flowers, fruits, and seeds. A strong positive correlation (r= 0.73 to 0.95) was observed among the majority of morphological traits. The sweet orange genotypes demonstrated considerable genetic variance, surpassing 65% for almost all traits, with a selection accuracy exceeding 92%. Using the multi-trait genotype-ideotype distance index (MGIDI), CS Jain-001 emerged as the top-ranked genotype, followed by BAU Malta-3 and CS Jain-002 in order of desirability. The broad sense heritability of selected traits was above 75.60%, and the selection gain reached a maximum of 12.60. These identified genotypes show promise as potential parent donors in breeding programs, leveraging their strengths and weaknesses to develop promising varieties in Bangladesh.

    Abstract The utilization of nanoparticles in agricultural land is widely increasing worldwide. The present study takes the advent from converting the rice husk waste to silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) to be used in two years of field experiments, as fertigation treatment, against reducing irrigation by drip system. In this respect, the experiments comprised of three drip irrigation regimes (i.e., 60, 80, and 100 % of crop evapotranspiration, ETc) and four levels of SiNPs (0, 100, 200, and 300 mg L−1). The results indicated that limited irrigation reduced the plant fresh weight, plant height, and yield of eggplants by 15, 25, and 30 %, an average of two years, at the level of 60 % ETc compared to 100 % ETc. However, these negative impacts were alleviated by SiNPs via improving the photosynthetic pigments and relative water content where the plants supplemented with 300 mg L−1 SiNPs had the highest improving effects to be 3.8 mg g−1 FW and 76 % compared to 2.2 mg g−1 FW and 63 % (average of two years), respectively at the drought level of 60 % ETc. Furthermore, SiNPs ameliorated the oxidative damage induced by different water regimes by lessening lipid peroxidation and hydrogen peroxide (10.9 and 85.4 µM g−1 FW) compared to their drought level 60 % ETc (14 and 113 µM g−1 FW). This was associated with stimulating the antioxidant enzyme system by promoting the activities of peroxidases (ascorbate- and guaiacol-dependent types), catalase, and superoxide dismutase as the concentration of silica NPs increased to be (173.84, 12.2, 49.5, and 41 unit/mg/min, respectively) at 60 % ETc and 300 mg L−1 SiNPs compared to only 60 % ETc (100.5, 7.9, 32, and 30.5 unit/mg/min, respectively). Also, efficiently increasing SiNPs levels highly significantly restrained the ionic homeostasis in the leaves of eggplant via retaining the reduction of silicon, potassium, calcium, and magnesium contents at 300 mg L−1 silica NPs especially at 60 % ETc (33, 19, 4.5, and 6 mg g−1 DW, respectively) compared to the corresponding drought level (17.33, 7, 2.1, ...

    Abstract It is important to know the community coping strategies during the rapid uprise of a pandemic, as this helps to predict the consequences, especially in the mental health spectrum. This study aims to explore coping strategies used by Bangladeshi citizens during the major wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. Design: Prospective, cross-sectional survey of adults living in Bangladesh. Methods: Participants were interviewed for socio-demographic data and completed the Bengali-translated Brief-COPE Inventory. COPING indicators were categorized in four ways, such as approach, avoidant, humor, and religion. Results: Participants (N = 2001), aged 18 to 86 years, were recruited from eight administrative divisions within Bangladesh (mean age 31.85 ± 14.2 years). The male-to-female participant ratio was 53.4% (n = 1074) to 46.6% (n = 927). Higher scores were reported for approach coping styles (29.83 ± 8.9), with lower scores reported for avoidant coping styles (20.83 ± 6.05). Humor coping scores were reported at 2.68 ± 1.3, and religion coping scores at 5.64 ± 1.8. Both men and women showed similar coping styles. Multivariate analysis found a significant relationship between male gender and both humor and avoidant coping ( p < 0.01). Male gender was found to be inversely related to both religion and approach coping ( p < 0.01). Marital status and education were significantly related to all coping style domains ( p < 0.01). The occupation was related to approach coping ( p < 0.01). Rural and urban locations differed in participants’ coping styles ( p < 0.01). Exploratory factor analysis revealed two cluster groups (factors 1 and 2) of mixed styles of coping. Conclusions: Participants in this study coped with the COVID-19 pandemic by utilizing mixed coping strategies. This study finds female gender, the married, elderly, and rural populations were adaptive to positive approaches to coping, whereas the male and educated population had the avoidant approach to coping.

    Abstract Plant hybridization is an important breeding technique essential for producing a genotype (hybrid) with favorable traits (e.g., stress tolerance, pest resistance, high yield potential etc.) to increase agronomic, economic and commercial values. Studying of genetic dominance among the population helps to determine gene action, heritability and candidate gene selection for plant breeding program. Therefore, this investigation was aimed to evaluate gene action, heritability, genetic advance and heterosis of rice root, agronomic, and yield component traits under water deficit conditions. In this study, crossing was performed among the four different water-deficit tolerant rice genotypes to produce better hybrid (F1), segregating (F2) and back-cross (BC1 and BC2) populations. The Giza 178, WAB56-204, and Sakha104 × WAB56-104 populations showed the better physiological and agronomical performances, which provided better adaptability of the populations to water deficit condition. Additionally, the estimation of heterosis and heterobeltiosis of some quantitative traits in rice populations were also studied. The inheritance of all studied traits was influenced by additive gene actions. Dominance gene actions played a major role in controlling the genetic variance among studied traits in both crossed populations under well-watered and drought conditions. The additive × additive type of gene interactions was essential for the inheritance of root length, root/shoot ratio, 1,000-grain weight, and sterility % of two crossed populations under both conditions. On the contrary, the additive × dominance type of gene interactions was effective in the inheritance of all studied traits, except duration in Giza178 × Sakha106, and plant height in Sakha104 × WAB56-104 under water deficit condition. In both crosses, the dominance × dominance type of gene interactions was effective in the inheritance of root volume, root/shoot ratio, number of panicles/plant and 1,000-grain weight under both conditions. Moreover, dominance × dominance ...

    Abstract BackgroundAlthough undiagnosed hypertension (HTN) is a serious concern worldwide, it is less of an importance in Bangladesh, where there is a dearth of research on the subject. So, we aimed to identify the prevalence and associated factors for diagnosed and undiagnosed HTN.MethodsWe analyzed the recent 2017–2018 Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey data. We included 11,981 participants aged 18 years and above for the analysis. The prevalence rates of both diagnosed and undiagnosed hypertension were computed for all individuals and subgroups. The influence of socio-demographic, household, and community-related variables on HTN and undiagnosed HTN was investigated using multinomial regression analysis.ResultsThe study finds 1,464 (12.2%) of the 11,981 respondents [6,815 females [56.9 %]; mean age 39.4 years] had diagnosed HTN, whereas 1 898 (15.8%) had undiagnosed HTN. The HTN and undiagnosed HTN were significantly prevalent in the elderly, type 2 diabetic (T2DM), and overweight and obese individuals. In terms of residential regions, people from coastal region had a significantly higher prevalence of both HTN (RRR: 1.37; 95% CI: 1.17–1.62) and undiagnosed HTN (RRR: 1.35; 95% CI: 1.17–1.56) compared to those from the central region of Bangladesh.ConclusionsThe high prevalence of undetected hypertension in Bangladesh suggests that screening procedures for the current chronic illness may be inadequate in routine clinical practice. All populations should have access to hypertension screening, but it is especially crucial for the elderly, those with diabetes, those who are overweight or obese, and those from coastal and northern regions of Bangladesh.

    Abstract Introduction Uncontrolled hypertension is the most common cause of major adverse clinical events (MACE), such as myocardial infarction, strokes, and death due to CVDs, in both developed and developing countries. Western-led studies found that treated hypertensive adults with uncontrolled hypertension were more at-risk of all-cause and CVD-specific mortality than normotensives. The PRospEctive longituDInal sTudy of Treated HyperTensive patients of Northern-Bangladesh (PREDIcT-HTN) study principally aims to estimate the incidence of MACE in treated hypertensive patients and identify the determinants of MACE. The secondary objective is to find the prevalence of uncontrolled hypertension in treated hypertensive patients and the associated risk factors. Methods and analysis The treated hypertensive patients were obtained from the Hypertension and Research Center (H&RC), Rangpur, Bangladesh, from January to December 2020. Based on the eligibility criteria, 2643 patients were included to constitute the PREDIcT-HTN cohort. Baseline data was retrieved from the H&RC registry, and five follow-up waves are planned yearly (2021–2025). A questionnaire will be administered at each follow-up visit on hypertension control status, behavioral factors, quality of life, dietary adherence, and high blood pressure compliance-related variables. The participant will be right censored if the patient develops MACE, death due to any cause, loss to follow-up, or at the end of the study. A proportional hazard model will identify the risk factors of MACE. Multinomial logistic regression analyses will be performed to determine the predictors of the hypertension control status by medication and dietary adherence after adjusting confounders. Ethics and dissemination The ethical approval for this study was obtained from the Institutional Review Board, North South University [Ref: 2019/OR-NSU/IRB-No.0902]. The participants will provide written consent to participate. The findings will be disseminated through manuscripts in ...

    Abstract Drought tolerance is a complex trait controlled by many metabolic pathways and genes and identifying a solution to increase the resilience of plants to drought stress is one of the grand challenges in plant biology. This study provided compelling evidence of increased drought stress tolerance in two sugar beet genotypes when treated with exogenous putrescine (Put) at the seedling stage. Morpho-physiological and biochemical traits and gene expression were assessed in thirty-day-old sugar beet seedlings subjected to drought stress with or without Put (0.3, 0.6, and 0.9 mM) application. Sugar beet plants exposed to drought stress exhibited a significant decline in growth and development as evidenced by root and shoot growth characteristics, photosynthetic pigments, antioxidant enzyme activities, and gene expression. Drought stress resulted in a sharp increase in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) (89.4 and 118% in SBT-010 and BSRI Sugar beet 2, respectively) and malondialdehyde (MDA) (35.6 and 27.1% in SBT-010 and BSRI Sugar beet 2, respectively). These changes were strongly linked to growth retardation as evidenced by principal component analysis (PCA) and heatmap clustering. Importantly, Put-sprayed plants suffered from less oxidative stress as indicated by lower H2O2 and MDA accumulation. They better regulated the physiological processes supporting growth, dry matter accumulation, photosynthetic pigmentation and gas exchange, relative water content; modulated biochemical changes including proline, total soluble carbohydrate, total soluble sugar, and ascorbic acid; and enhanced the activities of antioxidant enzymes and gene expression. PCA results strongly suggested that Put conferred drought tolerance mostly by enhancing antioxidant enzymes activities that regulated homeostasis of reactive oxygen species. These findings collectively provide an important illustration of the use of Put in modulating drought tolerance in sugar beet plants.

    Abstract Drought stress is a major issue impacting wheat growth and yield worldwide, and it is getting worse as the world’s climate changes. Thus, selection for drought-adaptive traits and drought-tolerant genotypes are essential components in wheat breeding programs. The goal of this study was to explore how spectral reflectance indices (SRIs) and yield traits in wheat genotypes changed in irrigated and water-limited environments. In two wheat-growing seasons, we evaluated 56 preselected wheat genotypes for SRIs, stay green (SG), canopy temperature depression (CTD), biological yield (BY), grain yield (GY), and yield contributing traits under control and drought stress, and the SRIs and yield traits exhibited higher heritability (H2) across the growing years. Diverse SRIs associated with SG, pigment content, hydration status, and aboveground biomass demonstrated a consistent response to drought and a strong association with GY. Under drought stress, GY had stronger phenotypic correlations with SG, CTD, and yield components than in control conditions. Three primary clusters emerged from the hierarchical cluster analysis, with cluster I (15 genotypes) showing minimal changes in SRIs and yield traits, indicating a relatively higher level of drought tolerance than clusters II (26 genotypes) and III (15 genotypes). The genotypes were appropriately assigned to distinct clusters, and linear discriminant analysis (LDA) demonstrated that the clusters differed significantly. It was found that the top five components explained 73% of the variation in traits in the principal component analysis, and that vegetation and water-based indices, as well as yield traits, were the most important factors in explaining genotypic drought tolerance variation. Based on the current study’s findings, it can be concluded that proximal canopy reflectance sensing could be used to screen wheat genotypes for drought tolerance in water-starved environments.
