| Abstract | Knowing the genome size is an important step towards deciding and planning for genome sequencing of a given species. Using flow cytometry, nuclear DNA content of Hydrastis canadensis was estimated, and genome size stability of its in vitro regenerated plantlets were assessed. The nuclear DNA content of H. canadensis was estimated to be 2.62 ± 0.020 pg/2C. This is the first report to estimate nuclear DNA content of H. canadensis; therefore this study provides valuable information that will facilitate genome sequencing and subsequent molecular studies of this economically important medicinal plant. Comparison of genome size between in vitro regenerated (explant source was from wild plants) and wild plants of H. canadensis did not reveal any significant difference (P ≤ 0.05) in nuclear DNA content. This suggests that micropropagation of H. canadensis, even after numerous sub-culturing and long-term culture periods produced in vitro plantlets with a stable genome size. These results provide further evidence that micropropagation techniques have the potential to be used as a source of planting stock, along with seeds, for restoring locally threatened H. canadensis wild populations and for commercial cultivation to supply the growing herbal market. |

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.
