Salicylic acid (SA) produced by different plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) is a key phytohoimone that regulates plant growth and defenses against pathogens. Pseudomonas aeruginosa UPMP3 and Burkholderia cepacia UPMB3 are the most important types of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria isolated [...]
A study was conducted from July 2015 to June 2017 in Hazarikhil Wildlife Sanctuary (HWS) of Bangladesh to find out mammalian species diversity, population density and identification of major threats to the mammalian species of this sanctuary. Various methods [...]
The experiment was undertaken to investigate the retention of 10% Chromated-Copper-Boron (CCB) solution (2:2:1) in Kala-koroi (Albizia lebbeck) (L.) Benth. wood applying soaking as well as diffusion method. The assessments were applied for 5, 7, 9 and 11 days [...]

Artocarpus chanta Bmich, Ham. ex Wall. (Chapalish) is a large, deciduous indigenous forest tree species grown in natural forests. The seed of Chapalish is recalcitrant and loses viability within a few days of maturity that makes problem in storage [...]
Bamboo is an abundant source of biomass that is underutilized despite having a chemical composition and fiber structure similar to wood. However, there is limited information about the chemical characterization of its culms for its utilization and processing. This [...]
Heat treatment is often used for improve the dimensional stability of wood. In this study, the effect of heat treatment on physical and mechanical properties of Mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla King) and Acacia hybrid (Mangium x Auriculiformis) wood were examined. [...]
Strength properties are very important for paper grading; usually recycled fibre produce low grade paper. However, it is not easy to produce quality paper from recycled paper without addition of virgin pulp. In this study, the paper was made [...]
The goal of this research was to determine the physical (water absorption and thickness swelling) and mechanical (modulus of rupture, internal bond strength) properties of the experimental bamboo mat overlaid particleboard (MOPB) from the planer wastage of Borak (Bambusa [...]
Effect of pre-sowing treatments on seed germination of jigni (Trema orientalis) was conducted in different growing media to optimize cultural practices for raising seedlings at nursery level. The study was conducted during 2017-2020 at Headquarters Nursery, Silviculture Research Division, [...]
