    Abstract: Placemaking and cultural landscapes are worldwide multidisciplinary global concerns that cover many points of view of the common impacts of socio-economic cultural and rights jurisprudence planning, wellbeing and related advancements. Concerned with the complex interactions between the development and environment of those factors, it is important to seek ways, paths and implications for framing sustainability in all social activities. This book is mostly based on the 10th ACLA – Asian Cultural Landscape Association International Webinar Symposium that took place during September 26–27, 2020, in the Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, India. It examines contemporary social–cultural issues in the context of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN-SDGs) and associated cultural and sacred landscapes. There, the emphasis is on awakening deeper cultural sensitivity in harmonizing the world and the role of society and spiritual systems, drawing upon multi-disciplinary and cross-cultural interfaces—all within the scope of the future of the earth. The book’s chapters add a new dimension of cultural understanding in the broad domain of emerging human geoscience, considered as key policy science for contributing towards sustainability and survivability science together with future earth initiatives.

    Notes: Spin-valve (SV) films Si(100)/Ta30/NiFe50/CoFe20/Cu26/CoFe23/Ru7/CoFe20/IrMn50/Ta30 (in Å) exhibit a room temperature (RT) giant magnetoresitance (GMR) ratio of 8.5% with an effective exchange pinning field (Heex) of ∼1.3 kOe and an antiferromagnetic (AF) saturation field (Hs) of ∼6.0 kOe. The synthetic spin valve shows a GMR ratio of 5.0% at 150 °C with Heex〉500 Oe, while a conventional spin valve [Si(100)/Ta50/NiFe50/CoFe20/Cu28/CoFe22/IrMn50/Ta50 in Å] has a GMR ratio of 5.0% with Hex〈200 Oe. The synthetic sample also showed a superior thermal stability with a RT GMR value of 6.9% (compared to 6.1% for conventional sample) after an anneal at 250 °C for 10 h. Shielded narrow track synthetic SV readers demonstrated high amplitude, large dynamic range, and excellent magnetic stability, indicating extendibility for ultrahigh density read head applications. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Absorption of ammonium from solutions of ammonium chloride by maize (Zea mays L. cv. GS-2) tissue was studied. In contrast to an initial rapid phase of absorption in root tissue, a one hour lag period was recorded in leaf tissue. The maximum rate of uptake was observed at 5–10 mM NH4Cl in both tissues. Roots had a Km value of 1.0 mM and Vmax of 24.3 μmol ammonium (g fresh weight)−1 h−1, whereas the leaf tissue had a higher Km (4.1 mM) and a lower Vmax (8.7 μmol). There was a concentration dependent increase in ethanol soluble and insoluble fractions of organic nitrogen during ammonium supply. The optimum pH for ammonium absorption for both tissues was 7.4. The optimal concentration of CaCl2 for ammonium absorption was 5 mM whereas that of KCl was only 1 mM. In both tissues, the absorption was inhibited substantially by DCMU, DNP, cycloheximide, lincomycin, sodium tungstate, sodium arsenate and to some extent also by the anions nitrate and sulfate. It is suggested that a carrier is involved in an active uptake of ammonium in the leaf tissues.

    Notes: Roots and leaves of Zea mays L. cv. Ganga Safed-2 seedlings grown with nutrient solution containing either 10 mM KNO3 or NH4Cl or 5 mM NH4NO3 had considerably higher glutamate synthase (NADH, EC 1.4.1.14) activity than the corresponding organs from seedlings grown without any nitrogen. The supply of inorganic nitrogen for a short time, i.e. 3 h, to roots and leaves excised from seedlings grown without nitrogen also increased the enzyme activity in these organs. This increase was more pronounced with nitrate than with ammonium nitrogen. When excised roots and leaves from NH4NO3-grown seedlings were incubated in a minus nitrogen medium for 24 h, the enzyme activity declined considerably. This decline was inhibited to some extent by nitrogen, especially by nitrate. Inorganic nitrogen prevented similarly the decline in in vitro enzyme activity during 24 h storage at 25°C, more regularly for the root than for the leaf enzyme. The experiments demonstrate the role of inorganic nitrogen in the regulation of glutamate synthase activity.

    Notes: Root or secondary leaf segments from maize (Zea mays L. cv. Ganga safed-2) seedlings were incubated with 9-amino acids and two amides separately, each at 5 mM for 24 h, to study their effects on glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) activity. Most of the compounds tested inhibited the specific activity of NADH-GDH and increased that of NAD+-GDH in the roots in the presence as well as in the absence of ammonium. In the leaves, such effects were recorded only with a few amino acids. Total soluble protein in the root and leaf tissues increased with the supply of most of the amino compounds. The effect of glutamate on enzyme activity and protein was concentration dependent in both tissues. When the enzyme extracts from root or leaf tissues were incubated with some of the amino acids, NADH-GDH declined while NAD+-GDH increased in most cases. The inhibition of NADH-GDH increased with increasing concentration of cysteine from 1 to 5 mM. The experiments demonstrate that most of the amino acids regulated GDH activity, possibly through some physicochemical modulation of the enzyme molecule.

    Notes: Abstract Seed germination was delayed and seedling growth inhibited by 0.04 to 1.9 mM Pb+2 in Sesamum indicum L. var HT-I. In root, shoot and leaf Pb+2 accumulation increased with increasing Pb+2 concentration in the nutrient solution. In root and leaf tissues in vivo and in vitro nitrate reductase activity was inhibited significantly which was well correlated with the concentration of Pb+2 supplied and its accumulation in the plant parts. The inhibition of the NR enzyme activity could be, however, reversed by simultaneous treatment of Sesamum seedlings with K2HPO4, CaCl2 and KNO3 dissolved in nutrient solution. Total organic N and soluble protein of roots and shoots/leaves, on the other hand, increased with increasing concentration of Pb+2 while the same treatment caused a decrease in the N content of cotyledons. It appears therefore, that the increase in N and protein in the roots, shoots/leaves may be a result of increased translocation of N from the cotyledons to the roots and shoots/leaves during early seedling growth in a Pb+2 enriched environment.

    Notes: Abstract The growth of medium sized towns (with a population ranging from 20,000 to less than 100,000) in India was subjected to a detailed analysis. The basic premise was that growth behaviour of this group of towns, rather of cities or small towns, was a sensitive index to decentralisation of the urban process as well as to a balanced development of a region. It was discovered that growth rate of these towns was not just moderate; it was moderate to rapid. This signified that medium sized towns were more akin to cities than to small towns in respect of growth pattern. Among the various factors affecting growth, location of these towns in a particular region was discerned as more critical than their functions or relative size. Their growth was distinctly fast in areas with comparatively low population density, wide spacing of towns and new developmental activities. Here these towns were generally the biggest in their subregional context. The growth behaviour of medium sized towns did confirm dispersal of urbanisation but lack of any consistent relationship between their growth rate and development level of different areas was not in conformity with the hypothesis.

    Notes: Abstract The roots of Hindu geographic thought can be traced to the remote past, going back at least to c. 3500 BC. Formerly the unity of Nature and Man was expressed in the context of religious activities. The idea of nature and human integrity in Hindu thought depends upon ways in which people see and experience themselves, their sense of attachment to nature, and their ways of maintaining this. It is through symbolism, the main expression of mythological understanding, that one can gain insight into the relationships of humanity to Nature. Creation and incarnation myths describe the origin of organic life and of its five basic elements. The integrity of dwelling in space is expressed through the notion of home. Religion plays a vital role in the Hindu quest for harmony between nature and humanity. Mystics understand the roots of the Tao but not its branches; scientists understand its branches but not its roots. Science does not need mysticism and mysticism does not need science; but man needs both (Capra 1976, p. 297).

    Notes: Abstract In vitro regeneration in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) was achieved by direct culture of mature seeds on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with either N-phenyl-N′(-1,2,3-thidiazol-5-yl) urea (thidiazuron, TDZ) or N6-benzylaminopurine (BAP). Multiple shoots formed de novo without an intermediary callus phase at the cotyledonary notch region of the seedlings within 2 to 3 weeks of culture initiation. TDZ was found to be more effective compared to BAP as an inductive signal of regeneration. The former induced multiple shoot formation at all the concentrations tested (1 μM to 100 μM), although, maximum morphogenic response was observed at 10 μM concentration. Addition of naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) alone or in combination with BAP to the MS medium failed to invoke a similar response. When the TDZ supplemented medium was amended with L-proline, the resultant regenerants were mostly somatic embryos. Histological investigations confirmed the switch in the regeneration pathway from directly formed adventitious shoots to embryogenesis. For obtaining plantlets, adventitious shoots were rooted on MS medium supplemented with 2.5 μM NAA; somatic embryos were germinated and established on MS medium. Normal plants were regenerated from both adventitious shoots and somatic embryos and transferred to soil.
