The present study was aimed at evaluating the insecticidal efficacy of different microbial agents against Helicoverpa armigera, the voracious pest of tomato. The study comprised of the series of experiments conducted to determine the extent of field evolved resistance in H. armigera against conventional and new chemistry insecticides, to evaluate the endophytic capacity of Beauveria bassiana into tomato plants, to evaluate the lethal action of B. bassiana, B. thuringiensis and HaNPV under laboratory, green house and field conditions against H. armigera. Finally the effect of microbial agents was determined on the survival of natural allies, and the economics of application of microbial agents was calculated from yield harvested. Endophytic colonization of B. bassiana not only lowered the damage infestation of H. armigera but also improved the plant health. Synergistic effect (CTF≥20) on the mortality was observed when larvae were exposed to simultaneous application of higher concentration of B. bassiana and lower concentration of B. thuringiensis both in case of second and fourth instar H. armigera larvae. Lower concentration of B. bassiana yielded additive effect in combination with Bt. Higher concentration of NPV also integrates synergistically with lower concentration of Bt. Lower concentration of NPV works independently with higher and lower concentration of Bt. Percent pupation, adult emergence and egg eclosion from surviving individuals was found inversely correlated to toxic level of microbial agents. Increase in larval and pupal duration while decrease in pupal weight and adult duration was recorded depending upon the lethal action of the applied agent. The toxic nature of microbial agents also influenced the weight gain, frass production and diet consumption. Foliar application of B. bassiana and B. thuringiensis was found significantly persistent up to 12 days and mortality of second and fourth instar larvae was decreased with the time. Microbial agents in simultaneous application are proved to be effective in lowering the larval density of H. armigera and hence lowering the yield losses. Microbial agents are relatively safe to natural enemies of H. armigera and hence proved to be eco-safe agents. Maximum marginal return was obtained in combined application of microbial agents than their individual application

شاہدہ جبین

کامریڈ شاہدہ جبین پاکستان پیپلز پارٹی کی پہچان ایک تصویر 1985ء اور دوسری 2018ء کی ہے ۔جنرل ضیاء الحق کے مارشل لاء سے لے کر اب تلک 40سالہ طویل جد وجہد کا سفر شاہی قلعہ لاہور سے لے کر پنجاب کی جیلوں میں قید و بند صعوبتیں ہی نہیںبرداشت کیں اپنی سات بہنوں کے بعد پیدا ہو نے والے 20سالہ نوجوان بھائی عثمان غنی شہید کی لاش کوٹ لکھپت جیل کے پھانسی گھاٹ سے اپنے کندھے پر اٹھا کر گھر لے کر آئیں جو جیوے جیوے بھٹو جیوے کے نعرے لگاتا تختہ دار پر گیا ۔آج جب پاکستان پیپلز پارٹی کی طرف سے سینٹ کی ٹکٹوں کے خواتین کے نام پڑھ رہا تھا تو سوچا کہ سینٹ کی ٹکٹ ہو یا قومی اسمبلی میں خواتین نشستوں پر نامزدگی کی صرف امراء اور جا گیرداروں بڑے سیاسی خاندانوں کی بیگمات ہی اس کی اہل ہوتی ہیں جن کا کام بن ٹھن کر منہ بند کر کے صرف نشستوں پر بیٹھنا ہو تا ہے ۔پاکستان پیپلز پارٹی یہ تو بڑے فخر سے کہتی ہے کہ آج جو جمہوریت ہے وہ شاہدہ جبین جیسے کارکنوںکی بدولت ہے مگر کس کے لیے اور کب تک ۔ پاکستان پیپلز پارٹی کے کارکنوں کو چاہیے کہ وہ اپنے حق اور شاہدہ جبین کے حق کے لیے آواز بلند کریں ۔

پاکستان پیپلز پارٹی کی قیادت اگر پنجاب میں اپنا کھویا ہوا مقام دوبارہ حاصل کر نا چاہتی ہے توکارکنوںکے سنگینوںکے سائے میں مارشل لاء کیخلاف جمہوریت کی بحالی کی تحریک میں انسانی آزادیوں کی جنگ لڑتے ہوئے ایک بھرپور آواز کامریڈ شاہدہ جبین جس کی آواز کو شاہی قلعہ کی بلند و بالا دیواریں بھی نہ دبا سکیں سلام ہے شاہدہ جبین کو اس لا زوال قربانیوں اور جد وجہد کو جو آج 40سال گزرنے...

Hypertriglyceridemia Induced Pancreatitis Treated with Medical Management without Plasmapheresis

Hypertriglyceridemia is third prevailing cause of acute pancreatitis after biliary and alcoholic etiology. It accounts for 1 to 4% cases of pancreatitis. Present case describes a thirty years old diabetic male, who presented in emergency with pain in the abdomen and yellow discoloration of the skin. He was admitted with suspicion of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), but no improvement was seen after DKA treatment. His laboratory investigations showed normal serum amylase levels and dyslipidemia with raised serum triglycerides levels. He was diagnosed as acute pancreatitis secondary to hypertriglyceridemia, which is considered as a rare cause of acute pancreatitis.

Formal Design and Verifications in Parallel File Systems

In this dissertation, the architecture of the existing file systems such as EXT, NTFS and UFS is reviewed. A study of space utilization patterns in different file systems has been presented. Effects of directory depth on file access have been discussed. Moreover, the use of formal approaches in design and verifications of parallel file systems are presented. Prototype verification system (PVS) is used as a tool to specify and verify the file system architecture. We used a top down approach to formalize the hierarchical file systems. The most important aspects of a file system such as read, write, delete and move are formalized using refinement techniques where abstract definitions of these operations are specified and then refined towards a pointer based application. Furthermore, formal specification and verification of the cyclic data striping algorithm for parallel file systems have been presented with the help of proof assistant PVS. Our study of applying formal methods to parallel file system design opens many new directions for the future research. Formalizing the complete parallel file system is a grand challenge for the scientific community. The hard links and file system security must be formally designed and verified for building robust, reliable and error free parallel file system architectures. Several different algorithms for tree structure organization of data files must be formally verified before use in parallel file systems.
