Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Areas Susceptible to Gullies in Ideato South Local Government Area of Nigeria Using Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing TechnologySylvanus IroGully erosion is a critical environmental hazard in Southeastern Nigeria, threatening agricultural productivity, infrastructure, and communal safety. This study provides a spatially explicit assessment of gully erosion susceptibility in Ideato South Local Government Area (LGA), Imo State, using an integrated Geographic Information System (GIS) and Remote Sensing framework. The methodology employed a multi-criteria decision-making approach, utilizing the Analytical Hierarchy Process … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 20 Jul 2026 · 1,198 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFirst Morphoanatomical and Cytogenetic Characterization of Picria fel-terrae Lour.: A Local Accession from Dairi Regency, IndonesiaElimasni, Deny Supriharti, HaryatiPoguntano (Picria fel-terrae Lour.) plant has been widely recognized for its medicinal properties due to its bioactive compounds. However, fundamental biological studies, particularly on its phenological and cytogenetic characteristics, remain limited. This study aimed to characterize the vegetative morphology and karyotypic features of P. fel-terrae from Dairi Regency, North Sumatra, to provide a comprehensive cytogenetic database for future study and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 17 Jul 2026 · 759 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimizing Boar Epididymal Sperm Preservation: Comparative Analysis of Slicing Float-Up vs. Flushing and BTS vs. Andromed® Extenders on Sperm Motility and Morphometry TraitsMamonene Angelinah Thema, Ntuthuko Raphael Mkhize, Gerhard van der Horst et al.Epididymal sperm collection represents a valuable strategy for preserving genetics from deceased or castrated boars of superior breeding value. The two primary collection methods-slicing float-up (high sperm yield) and flushing (low blood contamination risk)-differ in sperm recovery efficiency, while semen extenders provide cryoprotective nutrients that protect against cold shock during preservation. This study compared the effects of slicing float-up versus … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 14 Mar 2026 · 1,800 accessesView PDFCite
