Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEFFECTS OF UV-B ON PHOTOSYNTHETIC PARAMETERS, LIPID PEROXIDATION, FLAVONOIDS AND GROWTH TRAITS OF CONOCARPUS LANCIFOLIUS (ENGL.)Patrice Suleman, Amina Redha, Mohamad Afzal, Redha Al-HasanConocarpus lancifolius is a perennial ornamental plant adapted to the semi-arid conditions of Kuwait. It accumulates most of its biomass during the stressful summer conditions which includes UV-B irradiation. The study evaluated equivalent UV-B irradiation intensities that plants would normally experience sometime during the course of a year in Kuwait. Leaf area, plant height, photosynthetic parameters, Lipid Peroxidation (LP) and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 23 Dec 2013 · 7,548 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordMissouri Spring Freeze Event and Crop Loss Analysis for the Years 1982-2015Mirza Mohd Shahriar Maswood, Ali Koleiny, Scott Nickell et al.A spring freeze is an unexpected freeze event occurring in late spring that can result in severe domestic crop loss. These events coincide with seasonal weather conditions that promote early crop development. As a consequence, early growth is most susceptible to freeze damage. Spring temperature fluctuations pose significant threat to crop yield and growth, when compared to onsistently cold springtime … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 4 May 2018 · 8,734 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordANTIFUNGAL EFFECT OF ETHANOL PLANT EXTRACT ON CANDIDA SPAwatif Al-Judaibi, Fozia Al-YousefIn this study, we investigated the in-vitro antimicrobial activity of some medicinal plants in the Arabian peninsula, including Rhamnus globosa, Ocimum basilicum, Tecoma stans and Coleus forskohlii. Our results showed high inhibitory growth in yeast after treatment with R. globosa and O. basilicum. C. tropicalis was shown to be a sensitive strain with an inhibition of 29, 28, 35, 25 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 11 Mar 2014 · 8,018 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordImproving of Kidney Bean Production by Plant Spacing in Two Different Altitudes at South Central Timor Regency, IndonesiaI Komang Sudarma, Nurul Aini, Karuniawan Puji WicaksosnoThe production of kidney bean as the source of protein and carbohydrate for the people of South Central Timor Regency is still low, therefore the production should be increased. The aim of this study is to evaluate the growth and production of kidney bean based on the different altitudes and spacings. The research was conducted at two different altitudes in … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 10 Nov 2015 · 7,278 accessesView PDFCite

S., T. Aswin Shriram, J. Sanjay Raju et al.In farming, crops are prone to a wide variety of diseases. The impact of sudden climatic change has adverse effects on their growth, providing incubation to harmful viruses and bacteria. Diseases to crops imply a significant negative impact on health, economy and livelihood of the human population. According to the data from the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO), an average … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 24 Aug 2019 · 8,987 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffect of In Vitro Nitrogen Nutrition to Phalaenopsis deliciosa Seedling GrowthChieh Wean Choong, Chin Hao Lim, Zherui Xiong, Siew Mee ChoongIn a continuous effort to conserve Phalaenopsis species, the optimization of a previously designed defined medium was carried out to understand the effect of in vitro nitrogen nutrition on Phalaenopsis deliciosa Rchb.f. In order not to alter the nutrient balance, macronutrient level instead of solely Nitrogen (N) was adjusted. Seedlings were obtained from in vitro germination and randomly inoculated on … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 16 Dec 2015 · 7,824 accessesView PDFCite
