Self-Incompatibility refers to the failure of pollen to fertilize the same flower or other flower of the same plant. Self incompatibility is an important out breeding mechanism, which prevent autogamy and produce allogamy. Out breeding means breed from parent’s not closely related (cross-pollination). Inbreeding means the production of offspring from the mating or breeding of individuals or organisms that are closely related genetically (self-pollination).

Examples of microorganism Viruses, Bacteria, Fungi, Algae, Protozoa's. There are several techniques necessary to isolate and culture microorganisms i.e. Isolation, Sterilization, and Culture in artificial media. The key focus of Microbiologists is Medical biology, together with medical specialty, Food and farm biology, Public Health biology (Epidemiology), Industrial biology, and Agricultural biology. There are Several beneficial uses of Microbiology like keeping folks healthy, keeping those pearly white teeth shining bright (Dental care), Veterinary care, For monitoring the environment, Making plants happy (Horticulturalists, gardeners, and Farmers use microbiology every day to keep pathogens off from plants.), For manufacturing wine, food, and beer, and the most significant use is for Producing pharmaceuticals. The word 'Microbiology' was coined by Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, and it came into existence from Greek word mikros means small, bios means life, and logia means study. The major contribution to the field of Microbiology was discovery of crude microscope by 'Robert Hooke' and further he stated that life's smallest structural units were cells. Historians are unsure that who first observed microorganism but the microscope was invented by Hooke during the mid‐1600s, therefore this English scientist was known as first to have observed microorganism (he observed strands of fungi among the specimens of cells) in the 1670s and the decades thereafter, Leeuwenhoek made careful observations of microscopic organisms, which he called animalcules. Leeuwenhoek revealed the microscopic world for the present day scientists and he's considered as first person to produce accurate descriptions of protozoa, bacteria, and fungi. After Leeuwenhoek died, the study of microbiology did not flourished briskly because microscopes were infrequent and the zest in microorganisms was not towering among the folks. In those years erudite debated on the theory of spontaneous generation (i.e. microorganisms arise from lifeless matter such as beef broth). This theory was debated by Francesco Redi, who manifested that fly maggots do not arise from rotten meat (as others believed) if the meat is covered to prevent the entry of flies. An English religious leader named John Needham advanced spontaneous generation, however

In this I have tried to cover Microscopy, Spectroscopy, Electrophoresis, Chromatography techniques in very simple way. Application of bio-molecular tools and techniques helps to develop understanding and provide scientific basics of the life processes at the molecular level and explain the structure, function and inter-relationships of bio-molecules and their deviation from normal and their consequences for interpreting and solving clinical problems.

Along with its easy synthesis by methods such as sol-gel technique, precipitation method, and green synthesis, it is widely applicable for toxic waste remediation, antibacterial materials, removal of industrial pollutants and also used in anti-arthritic and anti-cancer activities. Prior reviews have laid focus on singular domains whereas our review clubs three major domains i.e., clinical, agricultural and environmental that are involved in the day to day life of plants as well as animals. Besides the above information, properties, synthesis, nanotoxicity and future perspectives of magnesium oxide nanoparticles have also been elaborated in this review.

This study is intended to determine attitudes with respect to the present names for the syndrome and acuities held by women regarding the main clinical features of PCOS. The study compares the status of PCOS patients and reproductive-aged tribal women prone to PCOS in the population of Central India at Amarkantak. Methods: A cross-sectional study was performed in which a sample size of 500 females by random sampling was considered for the study and a well-validated questionnaire following the Rotterdam criteria for the diagnosis of PCOS was administered. Data collected relating to PCOS risk factors and the status of disease burden in society were analyzed using SPSS v 25. Results: The prevalence of the PCOS was around 6.6% owing to wretched lifestyle practices. Midst them, the risk factors were depression/anxiety in 32.2%, obesity in 28.4%, and diabetes in 7.6% and infertility in 1.8%. 86.6% of people were unaware of the disorder and 41.8% of them were prone to PCOS. Conclusion: Early detection and tracking of risk factors can help in the management of PCOS symptoms. A population-based program of screening and awareness including treatment modalities may be beneficial for the management of the disease.

Rapid development of mankind has led to progress but has also been enduring uncountable lifestyle diseases. Emerging technologies has drastic change in day-to-day routines of people, consequences being multiple life-style diseases. Reports suggest high mortality worldwide owing to lifestyle diseases. Our study highlights the comparison of tribes of Central India with urban population of Amarkantak on assessment and analysis of lifestyle diseases.
Methods-
In a cross-sectional study the data from sample size of 500 by random sampling was considered for the study and a well validated questionnaire was administered. Data collected relating to lifestyle risk factors and diseases were analyzed using SPSS vs 20.
Results-
Prevalence of overall lifestyle diseases in our study area was 53.5%. Our observations were, gastrointestinal complications are the most common 125 (25%), followed by diabetes 120 (24%), hypertension 100 (20%), rectal problems 75 (15%), and renal calculi 20 (4%). Further, a significant association of other risk factors were studied along with lifestyle diseases is reported.
Conclusions-
Results obtained signify the adverse behavior of rural population regarding health necessities. Early detection and tracking of risk factors can reduce the occurrence of lifestyle diseases. A population-based program of screening of lifestyle diseases may be beneficial for the prevention of non-communicable diseases.
