An experiment was carried out to study the response of organic and inorganic fertilizers on growth, yield and quality of garlic (Allium sativum L.) cv. Yamuna Safed-3. The results revealed that the combined application of 25% RDF with 75% N through FYM @ 20 t/ha gave higher marketable bulb yield of 19.34t/ha as compared to other treatments which were statistically on par with 100% RDF (18.53 t/ha ) and 50% RDF + 50% N supplied as FYM (18.94 t/ha). It is suggested that for better biometric observations, bulb characters and marketable bulb yield in garlic, combined use of inorganic and organic source of nutrient supply is preferable.

A simple and efficient method for the synthesis of chalcone derivatives using polyamine catalyst has been described. The antibacterial activity of chalcones are also evaluated by using gram positive (S. aureus, B. subtillus) and gram negative bacteria (Klebisila pneumonia, P. aerugenosa) microorganisms., European Chemical Bulletin, Vol 3, No 6 (2014): European Chemical Bulletin
