is an important fungal pathogen on many economically important crops including cabbage worldwide. Even though population structure and genetic diversity of is well studied in temperate climatic conditions, only a few studies have been conducted in tropical countries. It is also not clear whether the populations are clonal or recombining in the tropics.

Article Synopsis
  • Nanoflake-structured NiO nanoparticles were created using a microwave-assisted method, yielding a cubic phase confirmed through X-ray diffraction studies.
  • The transformation from hexagonal β-Ni(OH)2 to cubic NiO occurred around 350 °C, as noted in thermal analysis.
  • Analysis of size and morphology via transmission electron microscopy revealed that microwave powers of 600 W and 900 W produced uniform, flake-like NiO with enhanced magnetic properties and specific capacitance, indicating improved supercapacitor performance.

Cobalt Oxide (Co3o4) thin films have been successfully coated onto glass substrates at various solution pH by sol-gel spin coating technique. The film thickness was estimated using weight gain method and it revealed that the film thickness increased with solution pH values. The prepared film structural, morphological, optical and electrical properties were studied using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer and Vander Pau method, respectively.

The influence of thermal treatment on the structural and morphological properties of the ZnO films deposited by double dip Successive ionic layer by adsorption reaction is presented. The effect of annealing temperature and time in air ambient is presented in detail. The deposited films were annealed from 200 to 400 degrees C in air and the structural properties were determined as a function of annealing temperature by XRD.
