EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Salt Stress on Ion Balance at Vegetative Stage in Rice (Oryza sativa L.)Kirill V. Azarin, Andrey V. Alabushev, Alexander V. Usatov et al.Rice (Oryza sativa L.) plants were subjected to NaCl stress within 35 days. The shoot dry weight, root dry weight, total survival percentage and contents of inorganic ions in dry samples of stressed plants were measured to identify the physiological adaptive mechanisms by which rice plants at vegetative stage tolerate salt stresses. Laboratory testing of the 10 rice cultivars showed … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2016 · 7,464 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASCORBIC ACID FOLIIAR SPRAY COUNTERACTING EFFECT OF SALINITY ON GROWTH, NUTRIENTS CONCENTRATIONS, PHOTOSYNTHESIS, ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITIES AND LIPID PEROXIDATION OF BEAN (PHASEULUS VULGARIS L.) CULTIVARSZeinab A. Salama, El-Zanaty A.A. Abou El-Nour, Mohamed M. El Fouly, Alaa A. GaafarA water culture experiment was carried out in the Department of Fertilization Technology at National Research Centre, Cairo, Egypt, to investigate the effect of Ascorbic Acid (AsA) foliar application and salinity stress (100 ppm and 100 mmoL NaCl) on growth, nutrients concentration and some biochemical parameters of two kidney bean (Phaseulus Vulgaris L.) cultivars. Salinity caused significant reduction in growth … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 16 May 2014 · 7,900 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINDUCES OF ANTIOXIDANT COMPOUNDS AND SALT TOLERANCE IN WHEAT PLANT, IRRIGATED WITH SEAWATER AS RESPONSE TO APPLICATION OF MICROALGAE SPRAYHanaa H. Abd El Baky, M. M. Hussein, Gamal S. El-BarotyWheat plants (Triticum aestivum L., cv. Giza 168) irrigated with either 10 or 20% of Seawater (SW) were treated with aqueous extracts of green microalgae Scenedesmus obliquus and blue green algae Spirulina platensis (AESO and AESP 20 g (dry weight)/L) in order to increase wheat salt tolerance. Treated plants showed higher ability to tolerate salt stress (10 or 20% SW) … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 7 Jan 2014 · 7,591 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEthanolic Extract of Leaves of Newbouldia laevis Attenuates Glycosylation of Hemoglobin and Lipid Peroxidation in Diabetic RatsKolawole O. Timothy, Akanji M. Adewumi, Awe O. Emmanuel, Akiibinu M. OlayemiDiabetes is one of the major health problems around the world and the incidence of this metabolic disorder is on the increase. Current therapeutic interventions have not done much in preventing complications of diabetes. Therefore this study investigated the effect of ethanolic extract of Newbouldia laevis leaves (NLet) on lipid peroxidation and glycosylation of hemoglobin, which are pathological indicators of … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 13 Nov 2013 · 8,121 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKinetics of Biological Treatment of Low Level Pesticide WastewaterAbdel E. Ghaly, Deepika DavePesticides are chemical substances intended to protect food crops and livestock from pests in order to pro-mote agricultural productivity and protect public health. Contamination of soil, air and water and threat to human and animal health are the major constraints in the use of pesticides. Treatment of pesticide contaminated water is, therefore, paramount. Biological treatment provides the most economical option … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 4 Jul 2012 · 8,163 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntibiotic Resistance and Chromium Reduction Pattern Among ActinomycetesPreeti Jain, Alina Amatullah, Samiul Alam Rajib, Hasan Mahmud RezaActinomycetes, one of the most important groups of microbes, exhibit many interesting activities such as degradation and transformation of organic and metal substrates together with production of antibiotics. With these bioactivities, actinomycetes would play an important role in the webs of the marine environment. The present study was designed to evaluate the antibiotic resistance pattern, antibiotic producing potential and chromium … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2012 · 8,905 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
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of S-Nitroso-N-Acetylpenicillamine and S-Nitroso-Captopril Co-Administered with Cysteine on Blood Glucose Concentration in an Animal ModelSacha Campbell, Ruby Alexander-Lindo, Tara Dasgupta et al.The study sought to test the hypothesis that co-administration of SNAP and cysteine or CapSNO and cysteine in normoglycaemic rats may further reduce glucose tolerance. An oral glucose tolerance was carried out and the plasma nitrite concentrations were measured and taken as the biochemical markers of in vivo NO formation. The results showed blood glucose levels were significantly elevated at … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,221 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
