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 Transgenic Maize using Immature Embryos of HiII Genotype as a Vaccine CandidateHyun A. Kim, Suk Yoon Kwon, Han Sang Yoo et al.Problem statement: Plant-based vaccines posses some advantages over other types of vaccine biotechnology such as safety, low cost of mass vaccination programs and wider use of vaccines for veterinary medicine. These study was undertaken to develop the transgenic maize as edible vaccine candidate for animals. Approach: The immature embryos of HiII genotype were inoculated with A. tumefaciens strain C58C1 containing … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 5 Mar 2012 · 7,567 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNutritional Value of the Maize Stalk Borer and American Bollworm as Unconventional Protein SourcesA.E. Ghaly, F.N. AlkoaikProblem statement: The maize stalk borer and American bollworm were grown in an artificial media to evaluate their potential as human food sources. Approach: Both cultures were started from moths and the life cycle and culture structures were evaluated. Results: The larvae of both insects reached maximum weight and maximum length at the same time. The growth rate of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 8,088 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEnhancing the Urea-N Use Efficiency in Maize (Zea mays) Cultivation on Acid Soils using Urea Amended with Zeolite and TSPOsumanu Haruna Ahmed, Aminuddin Hussin, Husni Mohd Hanif Ahmad et al.Problem Statement: Ammonia loss significantly reduces urea-N use efficiency in crop production. Efforts to reduce ammonia loss are laboratory oriented, as such limited in reflecting actual field conditions. This paper reports the effects of urea amended with triple superphosphate (TSP) and zeolite (Clinoptilolite) on soil pH, soil nitrate, soil exchangeable ammonium, dry matter production, N uptake, fresh cob production and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2009 · 8,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDensity Equation of Bio-Coal Briquettes and Quantity of Maize Cob in Phitsanulok, ThailandPatomsok WilaiponOne of the most important crops in Phitsanulok, a province in Northern Thailand, is maize. Base on the calculation, the quantity of maize cob produced in this region was approximately 220 kton year-1. The net heating value of maize cob was found to be 14.2 MJ kg-1. Therefore, the total energy over 874 TJ year-1 can be obtained from this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,891 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGenetic Variation and Relationship Between Turkish Flint Maize Landraces by RAPD MarkersA. OkumusA comparative characterization of 17 flint maize landraces (Zea mays L.) was carried out using RAPD markers. Fourteen primers giving reliable and consistent polymorphic bands amplified 125 fragments (89%) with an average of 8.90 fragment per primer. Genetic variation in 17 maize landraces was characterized based on dissimilarity matrix by UPGMA dendogram which has no association into distinct grouping with … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,977 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Maize Potato Intercropping and Different Fertilization Methods on Rhizosphere Soil Microorganisms and Yield of PotatoHuanjin Ma, Shengguang Xu et al.A field experiment with three replicates was conducted to explore the effects of maize-potato intercropping and different nitrogen application strategies on rhizosphere soil microorganisms and potato yield. Microbial community analysis was based on relative abundance. Maize-potato intercropping improves land use efficiency, yet how differentiated nitrogen management regulates rhizosphere microecology and potato productivity in this system remains unclear. Clarifying nitrogen-mediated shifts … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 14 Sep 2026 · 790 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStress Resistance Physiological Traits in Maize Under High-Concentration Salt StressMingxia WangTo quantitatively analyze the stress-resistant physiological characteristics of maize under high-concentration salt stress, a combination of statistical analysis and quantitative recursive analysis is selected to conduct salt stress experiments on maize seedlings. 20 treatments are set up, with each treatment consisting of 5 pots and 3 plants per pot. The experiment is conducted without the involvement of any animals. Physiological … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2024 · 4,868 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effects of the Degree of Soil Salinity and the Bio preparation on Productivity of Maize in the Shaulder Irrigated MassifMaksat Nurbaiuly Poshanov, Shakhislam Uzakbaevich Laiskhanov, Zhassulan Maratovich Smanov et al.During the study on the Shaulder irrigated massif, the soil salinity maps with different degrees of salinity were compiled at the large-scale 1:10000 in the GIS environment. It was found that the area of saline soils increases with depth. In the upper 0-20 cm layer, 29% is salted and in the 50-100 cm layer, up to 44% is salted.
