Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Profitability Analysis and Policy Options for Sustaining Integrated Pest Management Practices on Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) ProductionKaynath Akhi, Shamima IslamThis study examined the comparative profitability of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) production between Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and non-Integrated Pest Management (non-IPM) farmers and tried to find out the policy recommendations for sustaining this practice in vegetable production. A total of 80 farmers (40 from each group) were purposively selected from Tangail district of Bangladesh through the interview schedule. To … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 8 Mar 2020 · 7,272 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating Toxicity of Extracted Destruxin from Metarhizium Anisopliae Against Citrus Leafminer, Phyllocnistis citrellaM. Mohammadi Sharif, A. R. Hadizadeh, M.A. Tajick GhanbaryProblem statement: The fungus, Metarhizium anisopliae (Metschnikoff) Sorokin produces some cyclic peptide toxins, destruxins, which exhibit a variety of insecticidal actions. Citrus leafminer, Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton, is a major pest of young citrus trees; therefore its effective and safe control is a important issue. Approach: Five isolates of M. anisopliae were inoculated in Potato Dextrose Broth (PDB) mediums. Destruxin was … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,251 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntensity Position Modulation for Free-Space Laser Communication SystemF. Faghihi, A. JangjooIn this study a novel analog modulation-demodulation technique for free-space laser communication system called Intensity Position Modulation (IPM) is carried out. According to TEM00 mode of a laser beam and by linear fitting on the Gaussian function as an approximation, the variation of the linear part on the reverse biased pn photodiode produced various currents. Our simulated results show fine … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 6,601 accessesView PDF Cite
