The Electric Vehicle (EV) landscape has witnessed unprecedented growth in recent years. The integration of EVs into the grid has increased the demand for power while maintaining the grid's balance and efficiency. Demand Side Management (DSM) plays a pivotal role in this system, ensuring that the grid can accommodate the additional load demand without compromising stability or necessitating costly infrastructure upgrades.

The use of resistant sugarcane varieties is considered the most economical and effective approach to manage viral diseases, especially in vegetatively propagated crops such as sugarcane. (SCMV) and (SCSMV) are the primary pathogens responsible for mosaic disease in sugarcane-growing regions of India.

- Mungbean yellow mosaic India virus (MYMIV) causes significant economic losses in pulse production, particularly through yellow mosaic disease (YMD) in the northern Indian subcontinent.
- A novel recombinant isolate identified as YMV-BG-BPT was found in blackgram from Andhra Pradesh, showing high similarity to MYMIV and other begomoviruses based on genetic analysis.
- The study highlights the emergence of a recombinant DNA B component linked to YMD, indicating evolving strains of MYMIV in southern peninsular India.
The present investigation was undertaken to evaluate the ameliorative activity of Allium sativum against lead-induced oxidative stress in the brain, liver, and kidney of male rats. Four groups of male Wistar strain rats (100-120 g) were taken: group 1 received 1000 mg/L sodium acetate and group 2 was given 1000 mg/L lead acetate through drinking water for 2 weeks. Group 3 and 4 were treated with 250 mg/kg body weight/day of A.

Since vitamin E is a major antioxidant, a study was carried out to find out whether this decrease observed in vitamin E has an effect on lipid peroxidation in blood stored in DEHP-plasticized PVC blood bags.
Materials And Methods: Blood was collected in Penpol blood storage bags (which is a DEHP-plasticized PVC bag) and parameters of lipid peroxidation, i.
