Estimation of genetic diversity along with phenotypic variation among crop germplasm is important for collection, conservation, evaluation and utilization in crop improvement programs. In the present study, 185 diverse genotypes of tomato (Solanum lycopersicon Mill.) including 33 genotypes of Lycopersicon var. Cersiforme were evaluated at morphological, biochemical and molecular level. Considerable variations were observed for quantitative and qualitative traits at morphological level during two consecutive years in 2016 and 2017. The minerals were estimated for potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron and zinc contents. However the antioxidant compounds including lycopene content, ascorbic acid, total soluble solids and beta-carotene. Cluster analysis revealed grouping of genotypes based on similarities indices irrespective of geographical origin. Correlation of yield with various agronomic traits displayed complex pattern of association. The germplasm depicted enough variation, 20 genotypes were identified based on agronomic performance. Studied toamto germplasm were also analyzed for molecular level using forty SRR markers to detect polymorphism. In conclusion 25 traits studied in a set of 185 genotypes described high range of variability for yield (kg), single fruit weight (g), plant height and potassium contents. Principal component analysis (PCA) with 40 SSRs markers revealed the sub-population structure of 185 accessions spread over two dimensions. Genetic diversity analysis, agronomic evaluation along with association of SSR markers with QTLs reported in the present study would be a bench-mark for breeders in targeting future tomato improvement for yield, quality, anti-oxidants and micro- minerals either through direct selection or through hybridization for developing pure lines or hybrids.

ارشاد ڈیروی دی منقبت نگاری دیاں فکری و فنی خوبیاں

شاعری اک اجہی ربی نعمت تے صلاحیت ہے ، جو رب حساس تے چونویں بندیاں نوں ہی عطا کردا اے، ایس لئی کہ ایہہ بندے عام لوکائی توں اپنیاں ایہناں خوبیاں پاروں سماج اندر اپنی وکھری پچھان تے مقام رکھدے ہن ، اکثر ویکھن وچ آیا ہے ، کہ جدوں کوئی بندہ شاعری شروع کردا اے، تاں اپنے آپ نوں کسے خاص صنف سخن نال جوڑکے باقی دیاں اصناف سخن نالوں ناطہ توڑ لیندا اے، پر ارشادؔ ڈیروی وانگ بہت گھٹ شاعر ہن جوا کو ویلے کامیابی نال ہرصنف سخن وچ نہ صرف طبع ازمائی کردے نیں سگوں ہر صنف سخن وچ ہر قسم دے موضوعات نوں بیان کرن دی صلاحیت وی رکھدے نیں ، عام قاری دے لئی ارشادؔ ہوری اک مرثیہ گو شاعر ہوون گے پراوہناں لوکاںآپ دی شاعری نوں کدے گوہ نال پڑھن دی کھیچل ای نئیں کیتی، اوہناں اپنی شاعری وچ حیاتی نال تعلق رکھن والے ہر موضوع نوں بیان کیتا اے ، کجھ دا ویروا کیتا جانداے۔

حمد

حمد عربی زبان دا لفظ اے جس نے معنی تعریف کرنا ، شکر کرنا اے ، (۱)حمد دا مطلب اے الحمد للہ کہنا ، حمد (ع،امث)خدا کی تعریف (افعال ، کرنا، ہونا،)، (۲)الحمدلہ، یعنی الحمد للہ، سب تعریف اللہ کے لیے ہے، کیو ںجے ساریاں صفتاں دا منبع تے مرجع اوسے دی ذات اے، قرآن پاک وچ ’’لہ الحمد‘‘  دے الفاظ(۲۴وار) استعمال ہوئے نیں ،(۳)ایسے لئی مسلمان ’’الحمد للہ‘‘ دے الفاظ کثرت نال ورت دے نیں ، جس توں مراد اللہ تعالیٰ دی تعریف تے شکر لیندے نیں ، کیوں جے اوہناں دا عقیدہ اے ، پئی خوشیاں تے غم ، دکھ تے مصیبتاں ، آرام تے سکون خوش حالی تے رزق ، زندگی تے...

Factors Affecting Human Rights in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan

In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa the situation of human rights is comparatively worse. Factors affecting human rights in this province include failure to guarantee good governance, growing poverty, illiteracy, violence, terrorism, worsening security, social injustice, political instability, and economic turmoil. These factors have been affecting adversely the human rights. To ensure human rights in the province, the execution of international human rights laws needs to be implemented. It is required to ensure good governance, peace and stability to ensure viable environment, provision of sustainable and quality education and reduce poverty. Unless the favourable environment be provided to the people at large, human rights violations may be continued. This paper attempts to know about the factors affecting human rights in the province and present some solid recommendations and policy options.

Heavy Metal Pollution from Vehicular Emissions and its Phytomonitoring Along Two Roads I. E. Pindi Bhattian to Kala Shah Kaku and Lahore to Gujranwala

The increase in heavy metal pollution along the roadside environment has become a major global concern recently. Therefore, current project was planned to monitor the level of heavy metals along the roads. For this study, five wild plant species (Calotropis procera, Cenchrus ciliaris, Cynodon dactylon, Nerium oleander and Parthenium hysterophorus) generally growing near the two roads [a segment of Motorway (M-2) from Pindi Bhattian to Kala Shah Kaku and a segment of Grand Trunk road (G.T. road) from Lahore to Gujranwala] in Punjab, Pakistan, were collected. The plant leaves and soil samples were collected from five sites along each road. The control samples of leaves and soil were collected at a distance of 50 meter away from roadside. The collected samples were analyzed during the four seasons of the year (2015-2016). Metals such as lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), nickel (Ni) and zinc (Zn) were examined in all the plant leaves and soil samples using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). Some plant physiological parameters such as gas exchange characteristics [photosynthetic rate (A), stomatal conductance (gs), transpiration rate (E), sub-stomatal CO2 concentration (Ci) and water use efficiency (WUE)] were evaluated. Plant biochemical attributes such as the contents of photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophyll and carotenoids), total free amino acids, total soluble proteins and total antioxidant activity were also determined. Significantly higher contents of the studied metals were detected in soil and plants along the roadside as compared to their control samples and they indicated clear spatio-temporal variations. The highest contamination of metals in both plants and soil samples was noted during summer, whereas, minimum was observed during winter. The contents of metals were found in the order: Cd < Pb < Ni < Cu < Zn. The higher contents of all the metals were noted along G.T. road as compared to M-2. However, Kala Shah Kaku site along M-2 and Muridke site along G.T. road appeared as the more polluted sites. The correlation between metal contents in soil/plants and traffic density was significantly positive for almost all the sites during all the seasons. Significant positive correlation between metal contents in soil and metal content in plants was also observed. The high contents of metals were also obtained in petrol, diesel, soot and used motor oil samples. Physiological parameters such as A, E and gs were significantly lower while Ci and WUE were higher in all the plant species along the roadsides. The contents of photosynthetic pigments and total soluble proteins were significantly lower whereas total antioxidant activity and total free amino acids were significantly higher in roadside plant species under metal stress. Among plant species, C. procera accumulated the maximum contents of Cd, Ni and Pb whereas, N. oleander had potential to accumulate high concentrations of Cu and Zn, hence, these plants can be suggested as the best choice as phytomonitors and/or phytoremediators of the metal pollution.
