I seek to understand the mutualistic relations between plants and pollinating insects (interaction networks), their phenology, the effect of various landscape feature on the plants and pollinators’ populations. Plant pollinator interactions are hugely important as they shape community structure and determine ecosystem functions. <br />I am also interested to expand my experience to other natural ecosystems, particularly in desert and agri-ecology, understanding the pollinator ecology, impact of invasive and native species on ecosystem services, role of pollinators in agriculture in Pakistan and impact of agricultural practices on pollinator populations. My research is interdisciplinary; with my own expertise in pollination ecology I collaborate widely with zoologists, geographers, biochemists, pathologists and molecular biologists nationally and internationally<br /><b>Address: </b>Department of Botany, Shah Abdul Latif University Khairpur<br />Sindh Pakistan<br /><div class="js-profile-less-about u-linkUnstyled u-tcGrayDarker u-textDecorationUnderline u-displayNone">less</div></div></div><div class="ri-section"><div class="ri-section-header"><span>Interests</span></div><div class="ri-tags-container"><a data-click-track="profile-user-info-expand-research-interests" data-has-card-for-ri-list="126411885" href="https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Biodiversity_Conservation"><div id="js-react-on-rails-context" style="display:none" data-rails-context="{"inMailer":false,"i18nLocale":"en","i18nDefaultLocale":"en","href":"https://salu.academia.edu/MSirohi","location":"/MSirohi","scheme":"https","host":"salu.academia.edu","port":null,"pathname":"/MSirohi","search":null,"httpAcceptLanguage":null,"serverSide":false}"></div> <div class="js-react-on-rails-component" style="display:none" data-component-name="Pill" data-props="{"color":"gray","children":["Biodiversity Conservation"]}" data-trace="false" data-dom-id="Pill-react-component-431bc521-8401-40d9-a5a3-d2e56bb2d592"></div> <div id="Pill-react-component-431bc521-8401-40d9-a5a3-d2e56bb2d592"></div> </a><a data-click-track="profile-user-info-expand-research-interests" data-has-card-for-ri-list="126411885" href="https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Plant-pollinator_interactions"><div class="js-react-on-rails-component" style="display:none" data-component-name="Pill" data-props="{"color":"gray","children":["Plant-pollinator interactions"]}" data-trace="false" data-dom-id="Pill-react-component-b7d2243d-9ed0-4ef7-8d52-23a9805a6abb"></div> <div id="Pill-react-component-b7d2243d-9ed0-4ef7-8d52-23a9805a6abb"></div> </a><a data-click-track="profile-user-info-expand-research-interests" data-has-card-for-ri-list="126411885" href="https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Urban_Ecology"><div class="js-react-on-rails-component" style="display:none" data-component-name="Pill" data-props="{"color":"gray","children":["Urban Ecology"]}" data-trace="false" data-dom-id="Pill-react-component-098ae5c0-815b-4d3c-856c-02b631cfc1bc"></div> <div id="Pill-react-component-098ae5c0-815b-4d3c-856c-02b631cfc1bc"></div> </a><a data-click-track="profile-user-info-expand-research-interests" data-has-card-for-ri-list="126411885" href="https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Agrobiodiversity"><div class="js-react-on-rails-component" style="display:none" data-component-name="Pill" data-props="{"color":"gray","children":["Agrobiodiversity"]}" data-trace="false" data-dom-id="Pill-react-component-0158b7cd-72c8-4f4b-8b54-383a0bdbdd3a"></div> <div id="Pill-react-component-0158b7cd-72c8-4f4b-8b54-383a0bdbdd3a"></div> </a><a data-click-track="profile-user-info-expand-research-interests" data-has-card-for-ri-list="126411885" href="https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Plant_Biology"><div class="js-react-on-rails-component" style="display:none" data-component-name="Pill" data-props="{"color":"gray","children":["Plant Biology"]}" data-trace="false" data-dom-id="Pill-react-component-db63793c-651d-41ff-8a25-cfb278ff2fe0"></div> <div id="Pill-react-component-db63793c-651d-41ff-8a25-cfb278ff2fe0"></div> </a></div></div><div class="external-links-container"><ul class="profile-links new-profile js-UserInfo-social"><li class="profile-profiles js-social-profiles-container"><i class="fa fa-spin fa-spinner"></i></li></ul></div></div></div><div class="right-panel-container"><div class="user-content-wrapper"><div class="uploads-container" id="social-redesign-work-container"><div class="upload-header"><h2 class="ds2-5-heading-sans-serif-xs">Uploads</h2></div><div class="documents-container backbone-social-profile-documents" style="width: 100%;"><div class="u-taCenter"></div><div class="profile--tab_content_container js-tab-pane tab-pane active" id="all"><div class="profile--tab_heading_container js-section-heading" data-section="Papers" id="Papers"><h3 class="profile--tab_heading_container">Papers by Muzafar H .

We synthesized research on urban bee species diversity and abundance<br />to determine how urban conservation could be repositioned to better align with new views on the ecological<br />importance of urban landscapes. Due to insect pollinators’ relatively small functional requirements—habitat<br />range, life cycle, and nesting behavior—relative to larger mammals, we argue that pollinators put highpriority<br />and high-impact urban conservation within reach.

We assessed the performance of three rice genotypes (DR-92, DR-51 and IR-6) using potassium treatments under saline environment. The experiments were laid down in completely randomized design with five potassium treatments (T=0.0, T2= 37.0, T=40.7, T= 44.4 and T= 48.1 kg ha-1) at Green house, Shah Abdul Latif University Khairpur. The recommended rates of N:P fertilizer (160:90 kg ha-1) were applied. Five seedlings of twenty-five days old were transplanted in each pot filled with ten kg of naturally occurring saline soil (EC 6.25 dS m-1). Agronomic parameters were recorded at the time of maturity. Ionic analysis i.e. the contents of K+, Na+ and K+/Na+ ratio were determined in shoot dry matter and grains. The results revealed a significant increase in vegetative and yield components of rice genotypes at higher potassium applications. Moreover, Na+ contents in grain and straw samples of rice genotypes decreased with increasing potassium applications.

In addition, the role of EPS on viscosity of solutions was observed. Bacterial cultures were grown in MRS broth supplemented with 0.5 % (w/v) cysteine HCl in anaerobic conditions. Among the <br />different time (24 h, 48 h and 72 h) and temperature (30ºC, 37ºC and 42ºC) conditions, high EPS production was observed at 42 ºC after 72 h of incubation. At these conditions maximum amount of EPS was produced by Bifidobacterium breve 11815 with the yield of 94.64 ± 0.25 ug/ml, followed by B. longum 11818 and B. animalis ssp. lactis Bb12 with the yield of 90.53 ± 0.34 ug/ml and 58.8 ± 0.25 ug/ml respectively.

We explored Nagarparkar, District Tharparkar, Sindh to record post monsoon botanical inventory of the region. The study confirmed 89 plant species of 26 plant families. The vegetation was dominated by Poaceae (18 spp.) and Fabaceae (15 spp.) families. About two third of the families were represented by single species. The vegetation was rich with grasses and herbs making about 60% of the species while the rest includes tress shrubs and subshrubs. The lifespan analysis revealed the dominance of perennials. The life form spectrum shows the abundance of Phanerophytes (30%), Chamaephyte (28%) and Therophyte (25%) across the region. The present study demonstrates vegetation variations triggered by monsoon down pours and indicates the presence of various microhabitats in the study area. The current inventory would be useful for further ecological studies and conservation of species and habitats.

We analyzed each plant species for cover, total plant cover of grazed, un-grazed and mean % reduction in cover (cm) from pre-monsoon and post-monsoon seasons. The results revealed a considerable effect of grazing on plant species; however the impact of grazing varied from plant to plant and season to season, in the studied areas. There was highest grazing intensity of Indigofera species leading to endanger in this area. In all sites, maximum reduction in cover was observed in Indigofera oblongifolia and Indigofera argentea, with 62.8 and 57.2cm, respectively during pre-monsoon, and 61.5 and 52.8cm in post-monsoon. Aristida funiculata also possesses high grazing intensity with 40.3 and 54.2cm in pre and post-monsoon seasons respectively. The species Convolvulus protratus, Cassia italica, Dipterygium glaucum and Digera arvensis showed grazing intensities with 47.8, 57.4, 25.2, 42.7 in pre-monsoon season and 44.3, 35.9, 45.7,53.7 in post monsoon seasons, respectively. The low grazing intensity was observed in dominant plant communities Aerva javanica, Calligonum polygonoides, and Leptadenia pyrotechnica in a pre-monsoon season with 7.8, 17.4, 13.2cm, whereas, it was increased in post-monsoon with 11.5, 25.9, 32 in the reduction of cover (cm), respectively. These plant species were grazed by the animals at that time when ephemerals were not available in the desert during a drought period.

Four samples of milk (5% fat-5% sweet, 5% fat-10% sweet, 10% fat-5% sweet and 10% fat-10% sweet) were<br />prepared by using sucrose for sweatiness and cream for fattiness. The samples prepared were presented to twelve<br />trained panellists. Their response was recorded and analysed by using Compusense software. Significant<br />difference (p<0.05) was found in sweet perception, whereas, no significant difference (p>0.05) was observed in<br />fat perception. Descriptive analysis suggested that rating of sweetness intensity rose with the increase of both<br />sucrose and fat concentration. In contrast, rating of fat content of milk was poorly linked to fat stimulus. It was<br />concluded that fat aroma does effect on the perception of sweetness whereas, increasing concentration of sucrose<br />levels masked the fattiness of milk. The finding suggests that sucrose disguises the sensory attribute of fat in milk<br />and this phenomenon can assist to describe why sweet-high fat food products are usually regarded only as<br />carbohydrate rich foods. These findings will help food industrialist to adjust the fat content of food products<br />since this can effect on the taste perception. Moreover, the understanding about effect of fat on the sensory<br />properties of milk will help in developing fat alternatives for addition to fat-free milk.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="7eaaa629735869066ded1807b83752cd" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":60594831,"asset_id":40349183,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/60594831/download_file?st=MTczMjQyMzE3NCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjQyMzE3NCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="40349183"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="40349183"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 40349183; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=40349183]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=40349183]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 40349183; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='40349183']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 40349183, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "7eaaa629735869066ded1807b83752cd" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=40349183]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":40349183,"title":"Effect of sucrose and fat aroma on the perception of sweetness and fattiness of milk","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"Sensory methodology was used to examine the effect of fat aroma on the perception of fattiness and sweetness of\nmilk.

Significant\ndifference (p\u003c0.05) was found in sweet perception, whereas, no significant difference (p\u003e0.05) was observed in\nfat perception. Descriptive analysis suggested that rating of sweetness intensity rose with the increase of both\nsucrose and fat concentration. In contrast, rating of fat content of milk was poorly linked to fat stimulus. It was\nconcluded that fat aroma does effect on the perception of sweetness whereas, increasing concentration of sucrose\nlevels masked the fattiness of milk. The finding suggests that sucrose disguises the sensory attribute of fat in milk\nand this phenomenon can assist to describe why sweet-high fat food products are usually regarded only as\ncarbohydrate rich foods. These findings will help food industrialist to adjust the fat content of food products\nsince this can effect on the taste perception. Moreover, the understanding about effect of fat on the sensory\nproperties of milk will help in developing fat alternatives for addition to fat-free milk.","publication_date":{"day":null,"month":null,"year":2019,"errors":{}},"publication_name":"Journal of Biodiversity and Environmental Sciences"},"translated_abstract":"Sensory methodology was used to examine the effect of fat aroma on the perception of fattiness and sweetness of\nmilk.

We assessed the performance of three rice genotypes (DR-92, DR-51 and IR-6) using potassium treatments under saline environment. The experiments were laid down in completely randomized design with five potassium treatments (T=0.0, T2= 37.0, T=40.7, T= 44.4 and T= 48.1 kg ha-1) at Green house, Shah Abdul Latif University Khairpur. The recommended rates of N:P fertilizer (160:90 kg ha-1) were applied. Five seedlings of twenty-five days old were transplanted in each pot filled with ten kg of naturally occurring saline soil (EC 6.25 dS m-1). Agronomic parameters were recorded at the time of maturity. Ionic analysis i.e. the contents of K+, Na+ and K+/Na+ ratio were determined in shoot dry matter and grains.

However, the impact of<br />salinity varies among species and genotypes. The experiment tested the salt tolerance of ten rice genotypes including, four<br />aromatic (DR-67, Latifee, Super Basmati and DR-66) and six non-aromatic genotypes (DR-92, DR-51, IR-6 Shahkar, NIA-19A<br />and Shua-92 check). The study used two factorial completely randomized design (CRD) with four salinity levels (T1-2.3<br />(control), T2-6.0, T3-9.1 and T4-12.8 EC dS m-1), at Green house, Department of Botany, Shah Abdul Latif University<br />Khairpur. Initially, a nursery of all genotypes was developed in a normal soil. The seedlings (25 days old) were transplanted<br />into pots filled with 10 kg air of dried soil.

We analyzed each plant species for cover, total plant cover of grazed, un-grazed and mean % reduction in cover (cm) from pre-monsoon and post-monsoon seasons. The results revealed a considerable effect of grazing on plant species; however the impact of grazing varied from plant to plant and season to season, in the studied areas. There was highest grazing intensity of Indigofera species leading to endanger in this area. In all sites, maximum reduction in cover was observed in Indigofera oblongifolia and Indigofera argentea, with 62.8 and 57.2cm, respectively during pre-monsoon, and 61.5 and 52.8cm in post-monsoon. Aristida funiculata also possesses high grazing intensity with 40.3 and 54.2cm in pre and post-monsoon seasons respectively. The species Convolvulus protratus, Cassia italica, Dipterygium glaucum and Digera arvensis showed grazing intensities with 47.8, 57.4, 25.2, 42.7 in pre-monsoon season and 44.3, 35.9, 45.7,53.7 in post monsoon seasons, respectively. The low grazing intensity was observed in dominant plant communities Aerva javanica, Calligonum polygonoides, and Leptadenia pyrotechnica in a pre-monsoon season with 7.8, 17.4, 13.2cm, whereas, it was increased in post-monsoon with 11.5, 25.9, 32 in the reduction of cover (cm), respectively. These plant species were grazed by the animals at that time when ephemerals were not available in the desert during a drought period. It is suggested that partial protection and controlled grazing can be beneficial to get positive results and maintain the desert vegetation in the study area.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="cb156fd46b8327124895621c428c49b0" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":60593110,"asset_id":40347539,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/60593110/download_file?st=MTczMjQyMzE3NCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&st=MTczMjQyMzE3NCw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="40347539"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span><span id="work-strip-rankings-button-container"></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="40347539"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 40347539; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=40347539]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=40347539]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 40347539; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='40347539']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span><span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 40347539, container: "", }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-f77ea15d77ce96025a6048a514272ad8becbad23c641fc2b3bd6e24ca6ff1932.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (true){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "cb156fd46b8327124895621c428c49b0" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=40347539]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":40347539,"title":"IMPACT OF GRAZING ON PLANT BIODIVERSITY OF DESERT AREA OF DISTRICT KHAIRPUR, SINDH, PAKISTAN","translated_title":"","metadata":{"abstract":"The effect of grazing on desert plant species from three distinct habitats i.e. Kot Diji sand dune, Ubhan Shah flat dune and Sorah inter-dunal area of District Khairpur was studied by using quadrat method.
