“…Most Amaranthus hybrids exhibit relatively high levels of sterility (Gupta and Gudu, 1991). However, it is possible that the parental species could hybridize relatively easily (Lanta et al ., 2003). Hence, it is expected that these markers could be present due to natural or artificial inter-specific hybridization occurring in Amaranthus taxa.…”

The complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequences of three Amaranthus species (Amaranthus hypochondriacus, A. cruentus and A. caudatus) were determined by next-generation sequencing. The cp genome sequences of A. hypochondriacus, A. cruentus and A. caudatus were 150,523, 150,757 and 150,523 bp in length, respectively, each containing 84 genes with identical contents and orders. Expansion or contraction of the inverted repeat region was not observed among the three Amaranthus species. The coding regions were highly conserved with 99.3% homology in nucleotide and amino acid sequences. Five genes – matK, accD, ndhJ, ccsA and ndhF – showed relatively high non-synonymous/synonymous values (Ka/Ks > 0.1). Sequence comparison identified two insertion/deletion (InDels) greater than 40 bp in length, and polymerase chain reaction markers that could amplify these InDel regions were applied to diverse Korean Genbank accessions, which could discriminate the three Amaranthus species. Phylogenetic analyses based on 62 protein-coding genes showed that the core Caryophyllales were monophyletic and Amaranthoideae formed a sister group with the Betoideae and Chenopodioideae clade. Comparing each homologous locus among the three Amaranthus species, identified eight regions with high Pi values (>0.03). Seven of these loci, except for rps19-trnH (GUG), were considered to be useful molecular markers for further phylogenetic studies.

IntroductionPlants, and particularly the horticulture section, are used by people for food, either as edible products or for culinary ingredients, and for medicinal use or ornamental and aesthetic purposes. They are genetically a very diverse group and play a major role in modern society end economy. Fruits and vegetables are important components of traditional food, but are also central to healthy diets of modern urban populations (

“…Temple [22] reported the increase in the harvest of bean by seaweed extract by foliar application with high yield was increased by 25% observed respectively.The growth and development was determined by Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of morphometric characters that have relevance to other characters. Based on the analysis of PCA program, obtained a major component that is able to retain most of the information which was measured using the total diversity by using a bit of the main components only [23]. Effect of H.pinifolia at higher concentration of 800mg/g per pot treated showed maximum morphometric measurement observed and tabulated (Table 4).…”

In the present investigation the analysis of phytochemical constituents from Halodule pinifolia were determined. The seaweed Halodule pinifolia were collected from Mandapam coast of Rameshwaram, Tamilnadu, India and the standard methods were followed for extraction of phytochemicals from the seaweed. The secondary metabolites synthesized from seaweeds and the broad spectrum of biological activity. The analysis of proximate content of Halodule pinifolia with methanol and hexane solvents was individually determined. Among the two extraction solvents, the methanol with Halodule pinifolia showed excellent results when compared with hexane solvent.The proximate contents like moisture (16.14mg/g), Ash (3.35mg/g), insoluble ash (3.14mg/g), fat(3.60mg/g), crude fiber (3.37mg/g) and N2free extractives (3.43mg/g) recorded from methanol extract of Halodule pinifolia and hexane extract showed moisture (8.03mg/g) Ash (6.73mg/g), insoluble ash (3.92mg/g), fat (4.02mg/g), crude fiber (4.12mg/g) and N-free extractives (2.23mg/g) recorded in the seaweed whereas qualitatively and quantitatively phytochemicals like alkaloids, saponins, flavonoids, tannin, phenol, steroid, terpenoids, protein, anthroquinone and reducing sugar were analysed in both solvents of methanol and hexane of Halodule pinifolia extracts. The effect of Halodule pinifolia seaweed organic fertilizer with different concentration like 200 to 800mg/g treated in each pot experiments of Benincasa hispida. The maximum concentration 800mg/g seaweed liquid showed excellent performance for the growth and development of Benincasa hispida.
