SEEDLINGSFabien Fonguimgo Tengoua, Mohamed M. Hanafi, A. S. Idris et al.Basal stem rot caused by Ganoderma boninense constitutes a serious threat to oil palm industry in Southeast Asia, especially in Malaysia and Indonesia and in Papua New Guinea and Pacific Islands. It is also expanding in some oil palm growing countries in Latin America and Africa and will soon become a worldwide concern to oil palm cultivation. To date, none … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 5 Dec 2014 · 8,014 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleISOLATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF RHIZOBIA AND PLANT GROWTH-PROMOTING RHIZOBACTERIA AND THEIR EFFECTS ON GROWTH OF RICE SEEDLINGSK. Z. Tan, O. Radziah, M. S. Halimi et al.Biofertilizer is a relatively safer, environmentally friendly and cost-effective approach as an alternative to reduce chemical fertilizer usage. The selection of bacterial strains with multiple beneficial characteristics are important to maximize the effectiveness on the host plant. Due to aforementioned interest, several Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacterial (PGPR) and rhizobial strains were isolated from rice and legume roots, respectively, at four locations … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 15 Apr 2014 · 10,904 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Some Heavy Metals in Some Morpho-Physiological Parameters in Maize SeedlingsSali Aliu, Bekim Gashi, Imer Rusinovci et al.Nowadays the heavy-metal pollution of the soil is causing ever greater problems, exacerbated by the fact that the heavy metals accumulated in plants may, either directly or indirectly, find their way into animals and human beings. Maize is one of the world’s most important crops, ranking third after wheat and rice, so the changes induced by one of the most … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 8,430 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDevelopment 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 accessEvery word in the titleNatural Repellent Anthraquinone Applied on Cereal Grain Seeds and Seedlings Against Pigeons (Columba livia) in CaptivityKan Khoomsab, Itsara TangsuwanThis research aims to test the effects of cassia leaf extract on the eating behavior of pigeons for application as a natural repellent. Senna siamea (Cassia) leaves were oven-dried and blended into fine pieces and processed by the simplest extraction method (maceration) with ethyl alcohol 70% solution and were then extracted with hot continuous extraction (Soxhlet extraction) with ethyl alcohol … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 16 Dec 2019 · 7,456 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLead Phytotoxicity Induced Changes in Biochemical Markers in Germination and Seedlings in Durum Wheat Triticum durum Desf. Cv.Vitron and GtaSoraya Slimani, Mokhtar Boudelaa, Saddek Abdelmadjid et al.Among the heavy metals most commonly found on land, lead is a strongly represented pollutant in soil and sediments. It is easily absorbed and accumulated in different parts of plants. On the macroscopic scale, lead causes unfavorable effects on plants. First and in the event of excess, it may exert toxicity affecting several stages of germination development in leaf formation … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 6 Sep 2017 · 7,480 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOligoglucans as Elicitors of an Enzymatic Antioxidant System in Zucchini Squash (Cucurbita pepo L.) Seedlings at Low TemperatureAbel Ceron-Garcia, Gustavo Adolfo Gonzalez-Aguilar, Irasema Vargas-Arispuro et al.Abstract: Problem statement: Non-controlled low temperatures affect physiological and biochemical processes leading to Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) accumulation in plants, which normally are stabilized by the antioxidant system. Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), Ascorbate Peroxidase (APX) and Catalase (CAT) are the most important ROS-detoxification enzymes in stressed plants. Approach: The activity of these enzymes were examined in response to fungal Oligoglucans (OG) … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 15 Dec 2010 · 8,306 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOPTIMUM MICRONUTRIENT LEVEL FOR PHALAENOPSIS DELICIOSA ORCHID SEEDLING IN VITRO GROWTHZherui Xiong, Chieh Wean ChoongThere were many researches about the influence of micronutrient concentration toward growth of plants. However, there was no clear statement about the micronutrient level for growth of Phalaenopsis seedlings. Hence it was worth to investigate the optimum level of micronutrient for Phalaenopsis, an endangered orchid species. Using Phalaenopsis deliciosa as the subject, germinated seedlings were grown on defined culture media … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 12 Nov 2014 · 6,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAccumulation and Effect of Manganese on Chloroplasts and Antioxidant Responses in Arabidopsis ThalianaJun Xing, Xue Yang, Cailing YuanIn this study, 5-day-old seedlings of Arabidopsis thaliana were exposed to 0, 0.5, and 1.0 mmol/L MnCl₂ for 6 days by using three independent biological replicates. The results indicated that Mn content in roots exhibited a dose-dependent increase with rising external Mn supply. The elevated Mn levels led to significant reductions in the nutrient content of K, Ca, Na, and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 18 Jul 2026 · 824 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferences in the Response of Diploid and Tetraploid Anthurium andraeanum Seedling Roots to Salt StressYun Zhang, Yongping Zhang, Yongxu Qiao et al.To investigate the effects of salt stress on the growth, development, and endogenous hormone content of roots in diploid and tetraploid seedlings of Anthurium andraeanum, the enhanced salt tolerance was elucidated.
