Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTolerance of Accessions of Glagah (Saccharum spontaneum) to Drought Stress and Their Accumulation of ProlineAminatun Munawarti, Taryono, Endang Semiarti et al.Glagah (wild sugarcane, Saccharum spontaneum) is a perennial grass that grows well in marginal soils. It has a high carbohydrate and fibre content, making it suitable for ethanol production and the study industry. Thus, glagah has potential as a crop species in its own right and may also be used in sugarcane breeding programs. However, glagah germplasm has not been … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 4 Feb 2013 · 7,876 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 Glutaredoxin Gene (slr1562) Protects Escherichia coli against Abiotic StressesAhmed Gaber, Salah El-Din El-AssalProblem statement: Glutaredoxins (GRXs) are ubiquitous small heat stable glutathione-dependent oxidoreductase enzymes that play a crucial role in plant development and response to oxidative stress. Approach: Cyanobacterium Synechocystis strain PCC 6803 contains two genes (slr1562 and ssr2061) encoding glutaredoxins. In the present investigation the slr1562 gene (grxC) was isolated and characterized. Results: The results revealed that the amino acid sequence … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 5 Mar 2012 · 7,582 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtraction, Purification and Characterization of Fish Chymotrypsin: A ReviewLiang Zhou, Suzanne M. Budge, Abdel E. Ghaly et al.Problem statement: Solid fish waste is generated from the unwanted parts of fish including heads, tails, fins, frames, offal (guts, kidney and liver) and skin. It accounts for up to 80% of material from production of surimi, 66% from production of fillet and 27% from production of headed and gutted fish. Currently, fish wastes are disposed off in land-based waste … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 22 Sep 2011 · 10,585 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRoot Elongation, Root Surface Area and Organic Acid by Rice Seedling Under Al3+ and/or H+ StressA. Elisa Azura, J. Shamshuddin, C.I. FauziahProblem statement: Under acidic condition, Al3+ is the most common species in solution. An experiment was conducted to study the effects of Al and/or pH on rice seed germination, root morphology and organic acids release. This study was conducted at ambient temperature in Malaysia. Approach: Two experiments were conducted: (1) Rice seeds undergoing germination were exposed to 0.5 mM CaCl2 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2011 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite

The grounding, elaboration, verification and evaluation of a scientific concept based on psychological, physiological and biochemical guidance of the effort in competitive handball in order to generalize it at … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 16 Jul 2011 · 7,704 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInduced Resistance in Mycorrhizal Tomato is correlated to Concentration of Jasmonic AcidRupam KapoorThe study shows that Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) are capable of imparting disease tolerance in tomato plants pre-infected with Fusarium Oxysporum f. sp. Lycopersici (FOL). Inoculation of tomato seedlings with Glomus Macrocarpum (GM) or Glomus Fasciculatum (GF), 20 days after infection with FOL reduced pathogen spread and disease severity by 75 and 78 %, respectively. The mycorrhizal plants showed increased … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 14,214 accessesView PDFCite
