Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsComparative Effects of Drought and Salt Stress on Germination and Seedling Growth of Pennisetum divisum (Gmel.) Henr.Wafa’a A. Al-TaisanProblem statement: Water stress due to drought and salinity is probably the most significant abiotic factor limiting plant and also crop growth and development. Salinity and drought stresses are physiologically related, because both induce osmotic stress and most of the metabolic responses of the affected plants are similar to some extent. Water deficit affects the germination of seed and the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 27,311 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSalicylic Acid Protects Nitrate Reductase Activity, Growth and Proline in Amaranth and Tomato Plants during Water DeficitC. E. Umebese, T. O. Olatimilehin, T. A. OgunsusiProblem statement: Seedlings of Amaranthus hybridus cv. NHAC-3 (large green, amaranth) and Lycopersicum esculentum cv. Roma (tomato) were subjected to 7 days water stress at Early Vegetative (EV), Late Vegetative (LV), Early Flowering (EF) and Late Flowering (LF) stages of growth to study the impact on leaf water potential (ψw), Nitrate Reductase Activity (NRA), growth (plant height, shoot and root … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 9,565 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEvaluation 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. Crop growth … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,548 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCoupling Analysis of Thermodynamic Equilibrium of Mass Transfer and Microbial Community Succession in Multiphase System of Dark Tea Solid-State FermentationZhanjun Liu, Jiawei Sun, Taotao Li et al.During the solid-state fermentation of dark tea, the limited material migration, the dynamic evolution of the thermodynamic equilibrium state, and the highly dynamic succession of the microbial community make it difficult to analyze the quality formation mechanism systematically. Traditional research has focused on microbial diversity or sensory quality analysis, lacking a systematic discussion on the regulatory effects of material migration … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 10 Aug 2026 · 1,004 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial-Dynamics of Trace Metals Accumulation and Physicochemical Characteristics in Ikpukulu-Ama Creeks, Rivers State, NigeriaDavies Ibienebo Chris, Khang Wen Goh, Davies Imachrist Ibienebo et al.The study examines the spatial-dynamics variability of water parameters and trace metal concentrations between January and June 2023 at the Ikpukulu-Ama sites of the Bonny River, Nigeria. Key parameters analyzed include temperature, salinity, pH, transparency, dissolved oxygen, and trace metals (Ni, Pb, Cd, Cu, Zn) across three sites. The highest temperature, 32.56°C, was recorded at Site 2, indicating potential thermal … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 29 Jul 2026 · 494 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydroponic Fodder in Broiler Nutrition: Effects on Economics of Production, Environmental Impacts, Productive Indices, and Health StatusChristian Anayo Mbajiorgu, Ifeanyichukwu Princewill Ogbuewu, Monnye MabelebeleThe projected global population of 9.7 billion by 2050 will escalate the demand for animal protein, intensifying food insecurity. Broilers, being highly efficient in converting grains into protein-rich food, are crucial in meeting the ever-increasing demand for animal proteins. However, broiler production, especially in developing countries, is constrained by low quality and unavailability of conventional feed grains utilized in poultry … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 14 Apr 2026 · 1,694 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Methyl Jasmonate and Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) on Antioxidant Potential and Metabolomic Profiles of Zingiberaceae RhizomesHenny Lieke Rampe, Hanny Hesky Pontororing, Hanry Jefry Lengkong et al.The rhizomes of Zingiberaceae plants are used as cooking spices, medicines, cosmetics and beverage ingredients. Zingiberaceae rhizomes have the potential to be immunostimulants, antioxidants and immunomodulators. Antioxidants are chemical compounds that bind free oxygen radicals and prevent free radicals from damaging healthy cells. This research aimed to analyze the antioxidant potential and metabolomic compounds of the rhizomes of the Zingiberaceae … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 10 Apr 2026 · 1,311 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUnveiling the Potential of Dombeya buettneri K.Schum As a Drug Agent: Molecular Docking of Compounds With Enzymes Linked to Diabetes and Neurodegenerative DiseaseEsther Emem Nwanna, Samuel Chima Ugbaja et al.This study investigated the mechanisms of Dombeya buettneri (snowball leafy) extracts on diabetes, hypertension, and neurodegenerative diseases. It compared extracts obtained using steep water (a by-product of corn wet milling) and aqueous water. The extracts were analyzed for total phenol, total flavonoid content, antioxidant activities such as FRAP, ABTS, NO, DPPH, iron-induced lipid peroxidation assay, degradation of deoxyribose (Fenton’s reaction), … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2026 · 2,025 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Ozonated Water on the Bond Strength of FL Bond II Adhesive to EnamelFernanda Rafaela Ribeiro, Caterine Renata Passaglia, Julio Katuhide Ueda et al.The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of ozonated water as an oxidative cleaning solution to improve the bond strength of a bioactive adhesive system to enamel without prior etching.
