Analysis of Insulin-Like Growth Factor I and its Receptor of an Indian Major Carp Labeo rohita: An in silico Approach

Analysis of Insulin-Like Growth Factor I and its Receptor of an Indian Major Carp Labeo rohita: An in silico Approach MOJ Proteomics Bioinform 2017, 6(3): 00195 Samik Acharya,A.D.Upadhyay,A.K.Roy and Rumpi Ghosh   Bioinformatics Center, India *Corresponding author: Ajit Kumar Roy, Bioinformatics Center, College of Fisheries, Lembucherra, Tripura, Central Agricultural University (Imphal), PIN: 799210, India, Email:    Received: May 03, 2017 | Published: November 01, 2017 Abstract  The Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) is produced from the liver by involving growth hormone through the axis of pituitary/hepatic-GH/IGF-I system. IGF-I and its receptors (IGF-IR) are expressed in various extrahepatic tissues. The circulatory IGF-I promotes the systemic body growth by effecting cells of muscle, cartilage, bones etc. Various hormones such as: growth hormone (GH), Insulinlike growth factor-I (IGF-I) and their related receptors are available in...

Relationship between Fish Seed Production and Inland Fish Production of West Bengal, India

Relationship between Fish Seed Production and Inland Fish Production of West Bengal, India  SM J Biometrics Biostat. 2017; 2(2): 1013 Ambalika Ghosh1, B K Mohapatra2 and Ajit Kumar Roy3* 1.Department of Fishery, A P C College, India 2.Department of Fishery, ICAR-CIFE, India 3.Department of Economics and Statistics, College of Fisheries, India ABSTRACT West Bengal is rich in Inland Fishery Resources. Ponds and tanks dominate with 90.62 percent water resources that are brought under culture. Overall 87.56% of total potential water resource is utilized for culture leaving another12.44% for yet to bring under culture. Fishermen constitute about 3.3 percent of total population of 91.3 million in West Bengal. Fisheries are next to agriculture in terms of providing employment and food supply.

INNOVATIVE DISRUPTIVE TECHNOLOGIES TO BOOST AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIVITY

INNOVATIVE DISRUPTIVE TECHNOLOGIES TO BOOST AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIVITY A.K. Roy Ex. National Consultant(IA), NAIP, ICAR, New Delhi Corresponding author e-mail: akroy1946@yahoo.co.in ABSTRACT The paper reviews and identify the innovative disruptive technologies that can be applied to boost agricultural productivity to face the challenge of food security. As per FAO agriculture is becoming increasingly multifunctional. Whereas the main focus used to be on productivity in order to meet the needs of a growing and richer population, a 60% increase in output by 2030 is required. Now the emphasis is increasingly on sustainability in the face of limited land, water and fertilizer resources for food safety that are contributing to the bio-economy. 21st Century Revolution in agriculture is becoming increasingly multi-disciplinary. Further, climate change is already requiring changes to crop management, and access to fresh water and good soil are becoming serious limitations for a...

Big data techniques for extracting insight from data arising out of demonetization, digitization and cashless economy initiatives of India  6th International Conference on Biostatistics and Bioinformatics.November 13-14, 2017 | Atlanta, USA  Ajit Kumar Roy Central Agricultural University, India The digital economy is rapidly developing worldwide as the largest driver of innovation, competition, and growth. Even though many people have been excluded, tremendous opportunities are available for the digital economy to support financial inclusion for sustainable economic development. India could see a boost of $700 billion, an 11.8% increase by 2025. This additional GDP could create up to 21 million jobs. McKinsey has estimated that Indians lose more than $2 billion a year in forgone income simply because of the time it takes travelling to and from a bank. India aims to create a cleaner, more transparent economy via digitalization that will lead to an improved climate for for...
