Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiocontrol of Botrytis allii Munn the Causal Agent of Neck Rot, the Post Harvest Disease in Onion, by use of a New Iranian Isolate of StreptomycesM. Jorjandi, G.H. Shahidi Bonjar, A. Baghizadeh et al.Problem statement: Soil actinomycetes particularly Streptomyces spp. have showed antagonistic activity against wide range of plant pathogens. In the recent decades they have attracted high interests as biocontrol agents. Onion neck rot or gray mold caused by Botrytis allii have imposed economic post harvest damages to onion bulbs and decreased its storage durability and market value. Approach: To investigate for … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 9,935 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVase Life Extension and Chlorophyll Fluorescence Yield of Bougainvillea Flower as Influenced by Ethanol to Attain Maximum Environmental Beautification as Ornamental ComponentsA.B.M. Sharif Hossain, Amru Nasrulhaq Boyce, Haji Mohamed A. MajidThe study was conducted to investigate the effect of ethanol at different concentrations (ET) on bougainvillea flower longevity and delay senescence in storage condition. The treatments were water control, 2, 4, 8, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 70% ET. Flower longevity was 2 days more in 4, 8 and 10% ethanol than water control and other concentrations of ethanol. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,489 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAccumulation and Movement of Four Potentially Toxic Elements in Soils Throughout Five Years, During and After Biosolid ApplicationMarta Susana Zubillaga, Raúl Silvio LavadoIn this research, we have studied the accumulation of four PTEs (Cadmium, copper, lead and zinc) during and after biosolid application, in two soils with different clay content and their eventual movement with depth. The study was performed in the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina, on a Typic Argiudoll and on a Typic Hapludoll. Treatments were: control and biosolid application, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,206 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Grazing Sorghum Stubble on Soil Physical Properties and Subsequent Crop PerformanceB.J. Radford, D.F. Yule, M. Braunack, C. PlayfordTwo grazing trials were conducted on a Vertosol in central Queensland to assess the effects of stubble grazing by cattle on soil properties and subsequent crop performance. Two adjacent contour bays were selected for two treatments (grazed and ungrazed) in each trial. Both trials were conducted following a grain sorghum crop. In trial 1 (during 1996) the surface soil was … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 8,154 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial-Temporal Yield Trend of Oil Palm as Influenced by Nitrogen Fertilizer ManagementAbdul Rahim Anuar, Kah Joh Goh, Tee Bee Heoh, Osumanu Haruna AhmedOne of the major challenges in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) plantations today is proper interpretation of yield maps for site-specific management and identification and understanding of the causal factors influencing the variability of oil palm yields. A study was conducted to examine the structural yield variation in order to assess the spatial and temporal yield trends so as to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,549 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFatal Pulmonary Hemorrhage Through Fiberoptic Broncoscopy in a Well Controlled Diabetic Female With MucormycosisP. Di Carlo, D. Cabibi, A. Mazzola et al.A rare case of invasive pulmonary mucormycosis complicated by fatal massive haemoptysis through bronchoscopy in a patient with a well controlled diabetes is reported. Histological features of infection are reported and the characteristic aspects of the staining are discussed. Fiberoptic bronchoscopy revealed bilateral obstruction of the segmental bronchi and fatal massive bleeding occurring because of biopsy sampling. Caution is warranted … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,184 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial Variability of Soil Inorganic N in a Mature Oil Palm Plantation in Sabah, MalaysiaAbdul Rahim Anuar, Kah Joh Goh, Tee Bee Heoh, Osumanu Haruna AhmedThe identification and understanding of soil factors influencing yield variability of oil palm enable their efficient management. Soil samples were therefore collected from a fertilizer response trial on oil palm to study the spatial inorganic N distribution and some selected soil chemical properties as affected by long-term N fertilizer applications. The experiment was conducted on mature oil palms grown on … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,686 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Different Concentrations and Applications of Calcium on Storage Life and Physicochemical Characteristics of Papaya (Carica Papaya L.)T.M.M. Mahmud, A. Al Eryani-Raqeeb, S.R. Syed Omar et al.Papaya (Carica Papaya L.) fruits index 2 were treated with 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5% solutions of calcium chloride by dipping and vacuum infiltration (-33 Kpa) or untreated (0%) as control. Effects of these treatments were evaluated on storage life and postharvest quality characteristics of papaya. After 21 days of storage at 13±1°C, the fruits were removed from storage for physicochemical … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 9,652 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Azadirachta indica on Sheep Infected Naturally with HelminthesF.R. Macedo, H. Louvandini, G.R. Paludo et al.The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of neem (Azadirachta indica) on natural helminthes infection in lambs. Forty, four-month-old entire Santa Ines lambs were grazed on pasture, over a 20 week period. They were divided into 4 treatments: Without drenching (ND), 3 g A. indica/animal (A3), 6 g A. indica/animal (A6) and 9 g A. indica/animal (A9) … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,673 accessesView PDFCite
