Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Diversity of Three Indigenous Cattle Breeds Reared in BeninMahugnon Santoze Adido, Mathew Gitau Gicheha, Mahougnon Camus Adoligbe, Kodzo AtchouLivestock production is an important component of the Benin economy contributing an upward of 25% of the agricultural Gross Domestic Products (GDP). Indigenoues cattle sector contributes more to the GDP compared to other livestock species. Despite the economic role played by the sector, there has been little or no efforts to genetically improve the indigenous cattle in the country. Recently, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 16 Mar 2019 · 8,596 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNamed Entity Recognition for Kannada using Gazetteers list with Conditional Random FieldsK. P. Pallavi, L. Sobha, M. M. RamyaNamed Entities (NEs) that exist in the sentences are essential to build Natural Language Processing (NLP) applications for Information Extraction (IE) from large corpora. However, generating a large corpus is challenging for resource poor languages, such as Kannada. Further, there is no annotated corpus available online. The challenges faced in annotating NEs with pre-defined classes are: It is morphologically joined … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 24 Feb 2018 · 8,275 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChemical Mutagenesis for Improvement of Production of a Biologically Active Extracellular Polymeric Substance by Halomonas xianhensis SUR308Jhuma Biswas, Amal K. PaulA moderately halophilic bacterium, Halomonas xianhensis SUR308 (Genbank Accession No. KJ933394) isolated from solar saltern of Surala, Odisha, India was found to produce significant amount of a biologically active extracellular polymeric substances (EPS). Under optimized cultural conditions, the strain was able to produce 7.05 g L-1 of EPS after 8 days of incubation under shake culture. To enhance the EPS … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 1 Apr 2016 · 15,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGENOTYPIC IDENTIFICATION OF CANDIDA SPP. ISOLATED FROM ONYCHOCANDIDIASIS PATIENTS BY PHENOTYPIC METHODS, PCR AND RAPD-PCRZaidan Khlaif Imran, H. Al-GhalibiCandidal Onychomycosis (COM) is a common nail disease which plays as sources pathogenic reservoir giving a rise to repeated candidiasis infections. This study aimed to evaluate PCR assays and phenotypic tests for identification of yeasts isolated from COM patients. The study included 100 clinically suspected patients of COM attending the main hospital and clinics in Al-Dewania province in the middle … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Dec 2013 · 7,263 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Dietary Whole Rice Hull as Insoluble Fiber on the Flock Uniformity of Pullets and on the Egg Performance and Intestinal Mucosa of Laying HensTossaporn Incharoen, Patchanida ManeechoteOur two experiments were intended to investigate the effects of dietary Whole Rice Hull (WRH) as insoluble fiber on the flock uniformity of pullets and the performance, egg quality and intestinal mucosa structure of laying hens. In experiment 1, a total of 1,500 chicks (4 weeks old) with the same uniform weight were randomly separated into three treatments of 500 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 2 Nov 2013 · 8,153 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSELECTIVE ISOLATION OF A GRAM NEGATIVE CARBAMATE PESTICIDE DEGRADING BACTERIUM FROM BRINJAL CULTIVATED SOILDilara Islam Sharif, Mithun MollickA bacterial species having the ability to grow in the presence of carbosulfan pesticide “Marshall” was isolated from Solanum melongena (brinjal) cultivated soil in Khulna region, Bangladeh, having a history of pesticide usage. The strain was morphologically and biochemically identified to belong to the genera Pseudomonas. A comparative study of growth of this strain with other isolated bacteria showed its … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 24 Sep 2013 · 7,448 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification and Characterization of Antibiotic-Producing Actinomycetes IsolatesMeera Kumari, Bat-Erdene Myagmarjav, Birendra Prasad, Madhusudan ChoudharyActinomycetes are a gram-positive, filamentous subgroup of bacteria most known for antibiotic production. In fact, most of the antibiotics available today have originated from actinomycetes, namely from the genus Streptomyces. Novel bacteria with antimicrobial activities have been discovered from bacterial screen studies for decades and there is still much more yet to be unearthed. One hundred seventy five strains of … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 25 Jun 2013 · 15,437 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPesticide-Tolerant Bacteria Isolated from Agricultural Canals in the Lower Rio Grande Valley of South TexasSandra Puente Aguirre, Kristine L. LoweAtrazine and oxamyl are commonly-used pesticides in the Lower Rio Grande Valley of South Texas. Problem statement: Pesticides may become environmental contaminants due to overuse, runoff and other mechanisms and may impact non-target organisms and ecosystems. Pesticides may be degraded by indigenous microorganisms or by abiotic means. In this study, waterborne bacteria from agricultural canals were examined to assess potential … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,610 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection and Localization of Anti and Pro-apoptotic mRNA Genes in Human Colorectal Cancer Using in situ RT-PCRMohd. Nazil Salleh, Boo Siaw Shi, Wan Khairuzzaman Wan Ramli et al.Problem statement: Recent studies using conventional Polymerase Chain Reaction have shown that anti-apoptotic (Cyclooxygenase-2, COX-2 and Nuclear Factor-κB, NF-κB) and proapoptotic mRNA (Bax and Bad) are involved in the tumorigenesis of colorectal cancer. The aim of this study was to localize the expression of anti and pro-apoptotic mRNA genes using Reverse Transcription in situ Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT in situ … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,441 accessesView PDFCite
