Author(s): SUMEERA ASGHAR

Abstract: Okra (Abelmoscus esculentum L.) is an important summer vegetable of family Malvaceae. As temperature of the world is rising day by day due to climate change, the physiological behavior of crops is also changing and tolerance against heat is getting minimize. For this purpose, a research trial was conducted to screen different okra genotypes against high temperature (45/35°C day/night).Plants were grown in growth room at (28/22 °C day/night) temperature for four weeks. After four week temperature was gradually increased by 2°C to avoid sudden osmotic shock until the desired high temperature (45/35°C day/night) was achieved and genotypes were kept at this temperature for one week. Finding of this research showed wilting of seedlings, reduced leaves size, induced senescence and change of colour from green to yellow black, drastic decrease in fresh and dry matter contents reason can be the high transpiration rate disturbance or injuries in the physiological processes occurring within cell

Abstract: Customer satisfaction is the goal as well as the essential tool for measuring the quality and effectiveness of the construction industry. This paper aims to explore best practices that can be used by the Saudi Construction industry. For this purpose, the prevailing practices for client satisfaction followed in Saudi construction industry have been examined and compared with the best practices in the UK to identify the shortcomings and explore effective methods that can be used by Saudi constructors to provide enhanced client satisfaction. The data for this study has been gathered with the help of qualitative gathered from authentic secondary sources like books; peer-reviewed journals, construction reports and academic publications on construction and client satisfaction. Qualitative research methods involving interpretive paradigm, descriptive design and inductive approach have been used. The analysis of the findings has been done with the help of thematic analysis. The findings of the
