A mathematical model for solidification of binary eutectic system including relaxation time
(Begell House Inc., 2016) S. Yadav; S. Upadhyay; K.N. Rai
In this paper we have developed the time relaxation model for solidification of a binary eutectic system. In this model, we have considered the melt of a binary eutectic composite filled in a container; the flat probe is kept inside the container. The surface temperature of the flat probe decreases linearly with time. The solidification process occurs in three stages and, whole region is divided into solid, mushy, and liquid regions. The heat released in the mushy region is considered as discontinuous heat generation. The solid fraction present in the mushy region is characterized in two different ways: (i) when the solid fraction depends on distance and (ii) when the solid fraction depends on temperature. To solve this model we have developed the Legendre wavelets spectral Galerkin method. The whole analysis is presented in a dimensionless form and the results thus obtained are discussed in detail. © 2016 by Begell House, Inc.
Addition of two new genera—Marcstadlera gen. nov. and Neoclypeosphaerella gen. nov. (Mycosphaerellaceae)—based on polyphasic evidence
(Frontiers Media SA, 2025) Gargee Singh; Soumyadeep Rajwar; Sahana Khatoon; S. Yadav; Pooja Kumari; Raghvendra Singh; Kamalesh Kumar; Smriti Mall; Paras Nath Singh; S. Saran Kumar; Uwe Braun
During a survey of foliicolous fungi in India, two interesting anamorphic hyphomycetous fungal specimens were collected from infected leaves of Calotropis spp. and Mallotus philippensis. Calotropis spp. produce fascicles of conidiophores from stromata, accompanied by secondary superficial hyphae bearing solitary conidiophores. The specimen on Mallotus philippensis resembled Mycovellosiella, characterized by secondary superficial hyphae bearing micronematous to semi-macronematous, mononematous, unbranched, and aseptate conidiophores. A polyphasic approach—including morphological, cultural, and multilocus phylogenetic analyses (LSU-Rpb2-ITS), coupled with genealogical concordance phylogenetic species recognition—identified its relationship with cercosporoid fungi within the family Mycosphaerellaceae. The analysis confirmed that these fungal specimens represent distinct lineages without known morphological or DNA sequence counterparts. Consequently, two new genera are proposed: Marcstadlera and Neoclypeosphaerella, with M. malloti comb. nov. and N. calotropidis comb. nov. as their respective type species. Additionally, Clypeosphaerella calotropidis, Clypeosphaerella quasiparkii, and Pseudocercospora malloti are recognized as new synonyms. Several genera in the Mycosphaerellaceae, including Marcstadlera and Neoclypeosphaerella, are monophyletic. The ultrastructure of the conidiogenous loci and hila differs between these two genera. In Marcstadlera, the loci are cylindrical or peg-like, truncate at the apex, while the conidial base is narrowly obconically truncate. In Neoclypeosphaerella, the loci are slightly protuberant and surrounded by a circular rim-like structure, forming a truncated apex with a centrally positioned small apical depression. The conidial base is obconically truncated and also surrounded by a circular rim-like structure. © © 2025 Singh, Rajwar, Khatoon, Yadav, Kumari, Singh, Kumar, Mall, Singh, Kumar and Braun.
Gas-phase conformational analysis and vibrational signatures of diphenhydramine: Investigating the interplay with hydrochloride
(Elsevier B.V., 2024) A. Kumari; E. Shakerzadeh; A.K. Maddheshiya; A.K. Vishwkarma; S. Yadav; T. Yadav; S. Chakroborty; K. Pal; J. Malviya; J.A. Sawale; T. Roy; N. Yadav
We have performed a comprehensive analysis of the conformational and vibrational spectroscopic properties of Diphenhydramine in the gas phase using potential energy scanning calculations at DFT/B3LYP/6-31++G(d, p) level of theory which identified three different conformational structures. The influence of hydrochloride (HCl) on the energy profile and vibrational frequencies of the most stable conformational structure was investigated. The presence of HCl showed a decrement in the energy by -460.8312 a.u. confirming DPH–HCl structurally more stable than isolated DPH. Normal coordinate analysis (NCA) was employed to compute the total potential energy distribution for both the most stable conformational structure and the HCl complex. The results indicate that the DFT-computed vibrational frequencies are in good agreement with previously reported values. HOMO and LUMO was conducted to study the transition profile of the molecule. Additionally, NBO calculations were performed to ensure the stability of electronic structures at the same level of theory. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.
In silico investigation on molecular modeling of tyramine and its deprotonated form
(Elsevier B.V., 2023) M. Kushal; S. Yadav; T. Yadav; A.K. Vishwkarma; S. Bhushan; R. Kumar; R.V. Yadav; Pankaj K. Tripathi
The present investigation covers structural, thermodynamics and vibrational spectroscopic study of tyramine neurotransmitter and its deprotonated form in the gas phase. The ab initio calculations on both the tyramine and its deprotonated form have been performed at DFT/B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p) level in order to optimize the electronic structures and computation of vibrational frequencies. Besides, the computed frequencies of tyramine and its deprotonated form have been compared with the experimentally reported IR and Raman frequencies which showed that most of the vibrational frequencies are in well agreement with earlier reported data. We have also documented the effect of hydrogen removal from the site of oxygen atom on the theoretically computed vibrational frequencies and geometrical parameters of tyramine. To explore the transition profile frontier bond orbitals energies have been computed. Moreover, natural bond orbital (NBO) calculations have also been performed to ensure stability of optimized electronic structures of tyramine and its deprotonated form. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.
Legendre Wavelet Modified Petrov-Galerkin Method in Two-Dimensional Moving Boundary Problem
(Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2017) S. Yadav; S. Upadhyay; K.N. Rai
In this study, we developed the two-dimensional Legendre wavelet modified Petrov-Galerkin method for solving the two-dimensional moving boundary problem arising during melting of solid whose one surface is kept under most generalised boundary condition, and other two surfaces are insulated. The particular cases when surface subjected to the boundary condition of first, second and third kinds are discussed in detail. For validity of the present method, we have plotted graphs between residual (obtained from the original differential equation and its associated boundary conditions) and x-axis and found the effect of an error on moving layer thickness and y coordinate, respectively. Furthermore, we proved the convergence analysis of present method. The effect of parameters (Predvoditelev number, Kirpichev number, Biot number) on the moving layer thickness is discussed in detail. The whole analysis is presented in a dimensionless form. © 2018 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston 2018.

Nyssopsoraceae, a new family of Pucciniales to accommodate Nyssopsora spp.
(Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences, Institute of Plant and Environment Protection, 2023) S. Yadav; G. Singh; S. Rajwar; S.K. Verma; S.K. Gupta; R. Singh; R.N. Kharwar; S. Kumar
A new species of rust fungi Nyssopsora toonae discovered on living leaves of Toona sinensis (≡ Cedrela sinensis) from Uttarakhand, India, is described and illustrated. N. cedrelae is also reported on the same host plant, but differs from N. toonae which has a wide range of cells (1–4) and diverse teliospores shapes. Such features are not reported in any other species of the Nyssopsora. In a phylogenetic analyses based on partial 28S large subunit (LSU), 18S smaller subunit (SSU), cytochrome c-oxidase subunit 3 (CO3) and complete internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence data, all the Nyssopsora spp. along with N. toonae clustered together and form a separate and independent monophyletic lineage sister to Pucciniaceae in Pucciniales. The new family Nyssopsoraceae is introduced to accommodate this lineage based on the phylogenetic evidence and morphological differences from other known families. Nyssopsoraceae is characterised by its teliospores borne singly on a pedicel, with simple or branched projections all over the surface, composed of 1–4 cells (mostly 3-celled), and diverse shape. The teliospores spherical to subspherical (1-celled), dumbbell (2-celled), linearly arranged to triquetrous (3-celled), or T-shaped to tetrahedron (4-celled). A comparison of the morphological features, host plants and geographical distribution of all validly accepted species of Nyssopsora is provided. © (2023), (Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences, Institute of Plant and Environment Protection).

Purification and Preliminary X-Ray Crystallographic Analysis of the Peptidyl-Prolyl cis–trans Isomerase Alr5059 from Anabaena sp. PCC 7120
(Pleiades journals, 2020) S. Yadav; M. Centola; Ö. Yildiz; D. Pogoryelov; L.C. Rai; E. Schleiff
Abstract: Peptidyl-prolyl cis–trans isomerases (PPIases) have a wide range of functions in all cells. They are typically classified as cyclophilin, the FK506-binding protein-like or parvulins. Most PPIases are two-domain enzymes. While the peptidyl-prolyl cis–trans isomerase domain is common to all PPIlases, different proteins differ in the function of the second domain. Plant PPIases of the cyclophilin family (Cyp38 in A. thaliana) contain a second domain at the N-terminus, but its function is still not known. They are localized in the thylakoid lumen and are involved in the assembly of photosystem II. The protein is conserved among plants and cyanobacteria with high similarity in the PPIase domain, but with some divergence in the N-terminal region of the protein. This prompted protein crystallization to analyze whether a unique feature of plant proteins originates from a cyanobacterial ancestor. We expressed the Alr5059 protein from Anabaena sp. PCC 7120 in E. coli and crystallized protein by the sitting drop method. Single crystals of the Alr5059 protein appeared after 5–7 days. The best crystal gave a diffraction pattern to a resolution of 1.1 Å. The crystal belongs to the monoclinic space group P1211 with unit cell parameters a = 41.2 Å, b = 103.2 Å, c = 44.2 Å and β = 114.7° and contains one molecule per asymmetric unit. © 2020, Pleiades Publishing, Inc.
Role of Algae as a Biofertilizer
(Elsevier, 2017) A. Chatterjee; S. Singh; C. Agrawal; S. Yadav; R. Rai; L.C. Rai
Sustainable agriculture is advantageous over conventional agriculture for its capacity to accomplish food demand by utilizing environmental resources without negatively affecting it. The beneficiary role of blue-green algae (BGA) by way of supporting the nitrogen economy of paddy fields and enhancing rice productivity is well documented. The simple presence of BGA in soil results in formation of soil aggregates, which reduces soil loss during rainy season and regulates aeration, soil temperature, hence, improving physical and chemical properties of soil vis-a-vis physical environment of the crop. BGA are helpful in restoring soil nutrients by secreting exopolysaccharides and bioactive substances. They have the potential to mobilize insoluble forms of inorganic phosphates. Algalization has been employed for reducing the amount of exchangeable sodium, which results in altered soil pH and leads to reclamation of sodic soils. Some red algae used as biofertilizers have been found to augment growth nutritional value and yield of crop plants. This chapter provides an overview of the role of algae as biofertilizers. © 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
Serum adenosine deaminase in carcinoma breast
(Springer India, 1996) A.K. Khanna; S. Yadav; Z. Ali; N.C. Arya
Serum Adenosine Deaminase (ADA) activity was studied in 20 control cases and 32 patients with carcinoma breast. In control group the ADA activity ranged from 13-94 IU/L with a mean of 43.75 ± 21.55 IU/L while in patients of carcinoma breast it was 16-95 IU/L with a mean of 47.46 ± 22.54 IU/L, but these values were not statistically different. The ADA activity was also compared with other parameters in patients of carcinoma breast but the difference was not statistically significant in the various parameters like duration of disease, menopausal status, tumor size, hemoglobin level, total leucocyte count, absolute lymphocyte count, total serum proteins, serum albumin, histological grade of tumor and lymphocytic infiltration. The only significant difference in ADA activity was when N1 status of lymph node was compared with N2 status of lymph node.
Stress concentration in the matrix with degraded fiber-matrix interfaces
(2006) P.C. Upadhyay; S. Yadav; Larry Banta; Donald Lyons
Based on the composite cylinders assemblage (CCA) model, an elastic solution to the problem of an imperfectly bonded continuous fiber composite is presented under plain strain condition. A dual series approach based on Airy's stress function is employed to yield an exact solution for the stresses and displacements in the fiber and the surrounding matrix. Bond imperfection due to degraded fiber- matrix interface is modeled by considering the infinitesimally thin layer between the fiber and the matrix, having one-dimensional extensional and shear elements (springs) over the entire interface. Effects of degraded fiber-matrix interface on the stress concentration and displacements in the matrix are studied at different fiber volume fractions. Changes in the stress concentration with change in the stiffness ratio between fiber and matrix materials are also examined. © 2006 SAGE Publications.

With the simultaneous growth in interest from the mycological community to discover fungal species and classify them, there is also an important need to assemble all taxonomic information onto common platforms. Fungal classification is facing a rapidly evolving landscape and organizing genera into an appropriate taxonomic hierarchy is central to better structure a unified classification scheme and avoid incorrect taxonomic inferences. With this in mind, the Outlines of Fungi and fungus-like taxa (2020, 2022) were published as an open-source taxonomic scheme to assist mycologists to better understand the taxonomic position of species within the Fungal Kingdom as well as to improve the accuracy and consistency of our taxonomic language. In this paper, the third contribution to the series of Outline of Fungi and fungus-like taxa prepared by the Global Consortium for the Classification of Fungi and fungus-like taxa is published. The former is updated considering our previous reviews and the taxonomic changes based on recent taxonomic work. In addition, it is more comprehensive and derives more input and consensus from a larger number of mycologists worldwide. Apart from listing the position of a particular genus in a taxonomic level, nearly 1000 notes are provided for newly established genera and higher taxa introduced since 2022. The notes section emphasizes on recent findings with corresponding references, discusses background information to support the current taxonomic status and some controversial taxonomic issues are also highlighted. To elicit maximum taxonomic information, notes/taxa are linked to recognized databases such as Index Fungorum, Faces of Fungi, MycoBank and GenBank, Species Fungorum and others. A new feature includes links to Fungalpedia, offering notes in the Compendium of Fungi and fungus-like Organisms. When specific notes are not provided, links are available to webpages and relevant publications for genera or higher taxa to ease data accessibility. Following the recent synonymization of Caulochytriomycota under Chytridiomycota, with Caulochytriomycetes now classified as a class within the latter, based on formally described and currently accepted data, the Fungi comprises 19 Phyla, 83 classes, 1,220 families, 10,685 genera and ca 140,000 species. Of the genera, 39.5% are monotypic and this begs the question whether mycologists split genera unnecessarily or are we going to find other species in these genera as more parts of the world are surveyed? They are 433 speciose genera with more than 50 species. The document also highlights discussion of some important topics including number of genera categorized as incertae sedis status in higher level fungal classification. The number of species at the higher taxonomic level has always been a contentious issue especially when mycologists consider either a lumping or a splitting approach and herein we provide figures. Herein a summary of updates in the outline of Basidiomycota is provided with discussion on whether there are too many genera of Boletales, Ceratobasidiaceae, and speciose genera such as Colletotrichum. Specific case studies deal with Cortinarius, early diverging fungi, Glomeromycota, a diverse early divergent lineage of symbiotic fungi, Eurotiomycetes, marine fungi, Myxomycetes, Phyllosticta, Hymenochaetaceae and Polyporaceae and the longstanding practice of misapplying intercontinental conspecificity. The outline will aid to better stabilize fungal taxonomy and serves as a necessary tool for mycologists and other scientists interested in the classification of the Fungi. © (2024), (Zhongkai University).
