Abstract: The present disclosure relates to mutant algae resistant to salicylanilide based drug. The mutant algae has improved productivity and improved photosynthetic efficiency as compared to wild type of the algae in presence of the salicylanilide based drug. The present disclosure further relates to a method of preparing said mutant algae.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the field of image processing and discloses an agricultural advisory system (100) comprising a user device (102) and a cloud server (104). The user device (102) captures a digital image of a scene, receives a sensed data corresponding to scene-related and environmental parameters, and transmits the image and the sensed data to the cloud server. The server (104) stores one or more pre-trained prediction models and a three-dimensional HyperIntelliStack which maps red green blue (RGB) pixel values with hyperspectral reflectance values. The server (104) receives the digital images and the sensed data, transforms the received image made of RGB pixel values into a hyperspectral image using the HyperIntelliStack data structure, computes vegetation indices for each pixel of the hyperspectral image to generate a segmented image, and generates at least one advisory for agriculture and allied areas using the segmented image and one or more prediction models.

Abstract: A mutant algal strain showing upregulation of mRNA transcripts encoding urea carboxylase, ?-15-?3-desaturase and downregulation of mRNA transcripts of gene encoding triacylglycerol lipase is provided herein. The mutant algal strain of the present disclosure is tolerant to low temperature and thus can be grown over a wide temperature range. The strain shows enhanced biomass and fatty acid production and enhanced growth rate and nitrogen metabolism over a wide temperature range of about 10° C. to about 37° C., wherein the enhancement is in comparison to the wild type algal strain. A method of obtaining the mutant algal strain and a method of producing industrially relevant products such as fatty acids from the mutant algal strain also are provided herein.
