Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINTEREST COVERAGE RATIOS (ICRs) AND FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY: APPLICATION TO FIRMS WITH BOVINE DAIRY LIVESTOCKGiuseppe Bonazzi, Mattia IottiAgricultural firms with bovine dairy livestock are characterized by high investments in capital equipment and this is determined by the biological cycle of production, which requires large investments in land, facilities and bovine herd. These large investments require funding from equity capital or debt capital, which generates financial costs. Therefore, it is necessary to assess not only the profitability of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 15 Oct 2014 · 7,657 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Variability in Rhizoctonia solani Isolated from Vitis vinifera Based on Amplified Fragment Length PolymorphismAmparo Meza-Moller, Martin Esqueda, Felipe Sanchez-Teyer et al.Problem statement: Rhizoctonia solani is a potential grapevine pathogen. In order to develop effective methods of control, it is necessary to document its genetic diversity. Approach: The objective of this study was to analyze the genetic variability of R. solani isolated from the rhizosphere of ungrafted V. vinifera var. perlette seedless planted in Sonora, Mexico using Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2011 · 8,479 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDiversity of Cellulolytic Bacteria from the Digestive Tract of Oryctes rhinoceros LarvaeAhmad Faisal Nasution, Erman Munir, Dwi Suryanto et al.Lignocellulose is a ubiquitous biopolymer that, once degraded into monomeric products, could be used to produce a wide range of products. Bioconversion using indigenous microbes could be a solution to the large array of cellulosic waste and it could be sourced from exotic organisms such as Asiatic rhinoceros beetle (Oryctes rhinoceros L). This study aimed to cellulolytic bacteria from the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 4 · 2 Sep 2023 · 4,976 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordGenetic Characterization of a Bovine Breed (Tabapua) Under Artificial Selection Located in the Amazon RegionJose Elivalto Guimaraes Campelo, Marcone Helmer da Silva, Ednaldo da Silva Filho et al.Brazil currently has the biggest commercial bovine cattle population in the world. Several different breeds that come from Europe and India compose it. They are primarily used for dairy and meat production. In Brazil, several high quality genetic background cattle are kept in a condition known as pure breed, meaning no other animal of different genetic background is interbreeding with … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Jan 2013 · 7,558 accessesView PDF Cite
