This present study was designed to convert the waste products present in the environment into a valuable product by an ecofriendly approach. Vermicomposting is a cost effective, pollution free process by use of earthworms. A comparative study was carried out to convert cow dung, leaf litter, and market waste into vermicompost and the efficiency of the two earthworm species were tested. Both the species shows the degradation of substrates and convert them into nutrient rich vermicompost .The…

It is demonstrated that a chlorophyll a oxygenase is involved inchlorophyll b formation and that an overlapping region of a nuclear genome was deleted in all mutants and that this encodes a protein whose sequence is similar to those of methyl monooxygenases.
