| Abstract | The influence of kinetin and sucrose on the photosynthetic activity of carrot (Daucus carota) tissue cultures in relation to growth was investigated. The results showed that light contributes heavily to the growth of tissue cultures measured in terms of fresh and dry weight and cell division activity. In light, the fresh weight, dry weight, and number of cells per explant were about or more than doubled. This indicated that after the development of chloroplasts, carrot tissue cultures can grow autotrophically at least as far as energy and carbon are concerned. Kinetin was shown to have an important role in developing the photosynthetic apparatus and photosynthetic activity of tissue cultures as manifested by the increase of chlorophyll content (60%), Hill activity (about 3-fold), and 14C-fixation from NaH14CO3 (about 20%). On the other hand, the presence of sucrose in the medium reduced the chlorophyll content by about 30% and 14C-fixation from NaH14CO3 in the soluble fraction by about 60%. A possible correlation between the influence of kinetin on sugar uptake and the effect of kinetin on 14C-fixation from NaH14CO3 was discussed. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
