The pulses such as chickpeas or garbanzo beans, lentils and the dry peas, are progressively being documented for their major role in health promotion. Chickpea is reflected as a unique due to the presence of higher level of protein (40%) in it. The drought stress is the major cause of reduction of growth of plants by disturbing the molecular, physiological and the biochemical processes like ion uptake, respiration, signaling pathways, photosynthesis, and induction of hormones, nitrogen assimilation, carbohydrates and the amino acids metabolisms. Nonstop decrease in the productivity of chickpea is indorsed to inadequate genetic variations and the different stresses. Chickpeas comprise a soluble fiber called raffinose, a kind of oligo-saccharide which is fermented in colon through the useful bacteria called the Bifidobacterium. There are some earliest investigations which demonstrate that the individuals eating chickpeas can lesser their danger for diabetes. Chickpeas also play a vital role in the diet of those people who are effected by osteoporosis for its prevention. The protein ratio to starch can be adjusted to target definite textural characteristics of textured pea-protein to closely mimic the various products of meat such as chicken, beef and fish. . Not only do chickpeas produce a valued crop but at the same time they also are responsible for a natural organic technique of breaking disease cycle in barley and wheat crops.

The subject of classification is taken into account to be monotonous by the majority. Classification systems help to assemble similar disease phenotypes in more homogeneous syndromes. Over the years, various researchers have done extensive work in the development of classification of periodontal diseases. Though we have made great strides towards the understanding of periodontitis in general, the bitter truth is that we have not hit the bull's eye on the true nature of etiopathogenesis. Until then any classification based on infectious etiology would be a misfit. A classification that is easy to understand and based on treatment needs would be more apt at this juncture. This article is aimed at discussing the American Academy of Periodontology 1999 and present 2017 the World Workshop Classification Systems to know and simplified the modifications.

This research aims to analyze the effect of market timing ability and stock selection skills on the performance of stock mutual funds during the Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia. Trenor Mazuy Unconditional Model and Trenor Mazuy Conditional Model are used to calculate market timing ability and stock selection skill, considering the account macroeconomic variables named inflation and the rupiah exchange rate. The type of this research is a quantitative descriptive study with a sample of 55 stock mutual funds with assets above IDR 500 billion. The data analysis technique used is multiple linear regressions using STATA 16 analysis tool. The result shows that market timing ability and stock selection skill unconditional model have a significant effect on the performance of stock mutual funds. The calculation of the unconditional model produces a positive value. Investment managers of equity mutual funds in Indonesia do not yet have good market timing skills, while the ability to choose stocks is better. The conditional model shows insignificant results on the performance of equity mutual funds. The market timing conditional model produces a positive number, while the ability to choose the stock produces a negative number. This shows that when considering the economic conditions of a country, the performance ability of investment managers in market timing will increase, while the ability of stock selection will reduce the performance of a stock mutual fund. The level of volatility during the pandemic creates uncertainty so that macroeconomic variables as control variables need to be considered in making investment decisions.

There are different ingredients employed in right composition for fish foods that can be processed through sequential analysis of proteins, lipids, carbohydrate and other minerals based compounds. Fish wastes have become a major problem in the modern era due to accumulation of toxic compounds that released through animal wastes. There are different methods to store the fish foods for long periods of time. Contaminated foods leads to death of many fishes due to excess level of heavy metals such as mercury, arsenic and other environmental pollutants that causes degradation of fish’s internal parts. Beef also in crushed form also used a source of foods in many fish populations. Freezing of the foods is better option options as compared to the strategies for food storage as it maintain the internal pH and temperature of the nutrients by supplying them regulate heat flow in order to spillage of foods. This review focus on the foods used for fishes and animals inhabit in watery environments, source, nutritional value and biochemical aspects on the fish health’s. Phytoplanktons are used as ideal source of foods for most varieties of fishes because they are composed of proteins, lipids, minerals and also other useful nutritional value.
