Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiological Control of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Causal Agent of Sunflower Head and Stem Rot Disease, by Use of Soil borne Actinomycetes IsolatesF. Baniasadi, G. H. Shahidi Bonjar, A. Baghizadeh et al.Problem statement: High level of biosafety and non adverse effects on the environment of biocontrol strategies of pest management, are priorities of tomorrow's world agriculture. Actinomycetes are active biocontrol agents due to their antagonistic properties against wide range of plant pathogens particularly fungi. Fungal pathogens are liable for a big part of damages in agriculture economy. Approach: In the present … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 11,166 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Microbial Inoculants and the Impact of Soil Application on Rice Seedlings GrowthHayyan Ismaeil Al-Taweil, Mohammad Bin Osman, Aidil Abdul Hamid, Wan Mohtar Wan YussofProblem statement: The present study was undertaken to assess the Empty Fruit Bunches (EFB) as carrier of Biofertilizer and microbial inoculants interaction. A study in Malaysia had shown a strain of Trichoderma viride and Bacillus megaterium were isolated from the soil. Questions were raised whether the tow inoculants compatible to be mixed in same carrier? It is important to develop … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,717 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInduction of Embryogenic Callus and Plant Regeneration in Carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.)Omid KaramiIn this study, efficient plant regeneration through somatic embryogenesis is achieved in four cultivars of carnation (Nelson, Sagres, Spirit and Impulse). Embryogenic calli were induced on petal explants only, all the calli established on leaf, sepal, receptacle and style explants were not embryogenic. Embryogenic calli were obtained on Morashige and Skoog basal medium (1962) containing sucrose 9%, 2.0 mg L-1 … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,813 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProspects of Wind Farm Development in AlgeriaY. Himri, A. Boudghene Stambouli, B. DraouiThis study utilized wind speed data over a period of almost 10 years between 1977 and 1988 from three stations, namely Adrar, Timimoun and Tindouf in order to assess the energy output for a 30 MW installed capacity wind farm at each site in Algeria, in terms of gross energy, renewable energy delivered, specific yield and wind farm capacity factor. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,083 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStrength and Ductility of Randomly Distributed Palm Fibers Reinforced Silty-Sand SoilsS.M. Marandi, M.H. Bagheripour, R. Rahgozar, H. ZareThis paper investigates the resultant strength and ductility behavior when randomly distributed palm fibers are used to reinforce silty-sand soils. The composite soils were tested under laboratory conditions and examined for unconfined compression strength (UCS), California Bearing Ratio (CBR) and compaction test. The results indicated that; the maximum and residual strengths, orientation of surface failures, ductility and the stress-strain relationship … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,857 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGamma Radiosensitivity Study on Chili (Capsicum annuum)Shairul Rizdiyandi Omar, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Shaharudin Saamin, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidInduced mutation by gamma irradiation has been found to be a very useful technique for crop improvement. Apart from this, the proper use of induced mutation in plant breeding has become a profitable approach. This investigation was carried out to determine the LD50 and effect of gamma rays on germination, plant height, survival percentage, root length, root dry weight and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 9,033 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Sorghum Density As Affected By Two Water Qualities Under Drip Irrigation SystemB.A. Ould Ahmed, T. Yamamoto, M. Inoue, H. DehghanisanijPot experiment was conducted under glasshouse conditions during 2005 at the Arid Land Research Center, Tottori University in Tottori, Japan. The study presented here was aimed to evaluating the response of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L) Moench), density under two different water qualities. The investigation was carried out in randomized complete block design experiments located in a plastic greenhouse.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGamma Radiosensitivity Study on Long Bean (Vigna sesquipedalis)Ellyfa Kon, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Shaharudin Saamin, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidThis study was conducted to determine the LD50 and effect of gamma ray on germination percentage, plant height, survival percentage, root length, root dry weight and shoot dry weight of seedlings derived from seeds of long bean (Vigna sesquipedalis). Seeds of this crop were treated with 300, 400, 500, 600 and 800 Gy gamma rays at Malaysian Institute of Nuclear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 8,596 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of the Upland Weed Control Potentiality of Green Tea Waste-Rice Bran Compost and Its Effect on Spinach GrowthM.A.I. Khan, K. Ueno, S. Horimoto et al.This study evaluated the upland weed control potentiality, germination inhibition ability and growth suppression efficiency of the five combinations of green tea waste - rice bran compost (GRC). GRC was prepared by mixing green tea waste and rice bran at five ratios, and allowed to decompose for 5 mo. Application of GRC suppressed weed growth up to 93.4% in number … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,203 accessesView PDFCite
