Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Drought Stress on Growth and Yield of Soybean (Glycine max L.) Genotypes in Northern GhanaIsaac Kwahene Addai, Alhassan Bawa, Maganoba CharlesStudies on induced mutation were conducted and the results indicated that stable, but desirable soybean mutant genotypes with improved agronomic traits have been produced. A series of evaluations of these mutant genotypes had earlier on been carried out and high-yielding ones such as 150, 200, 250, and 300 Gy have been identified. In the present study, the above genotypes were … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 1 Jun 2023 · 6,777 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpikelets Fertility and Quality of Local Upland Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Seeds Due to High Temperature at Various StagesRisky Ridha, Ellis Nihayati et al.Stress from high temperatures is one of the factors that restrict rice plant growth and development. Rice generative stage sensitivity to high temperatures is well established, but its vegetative stage sensitivity is more uncertain. To identify high-temperature tolerance traits in the vegetative and generative stages, four local upland rice genotypes were tested under high-temperature stress treatment (32-36°C) during the vegetative … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 22 Jul 2024 · 5,009 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacteristics and Pre-Weaning Growth of Crossbred between Belgian Blue and Wagyu Bulls with Brahman Cross DamsPanjono, Ali Agus, Tety Hartatik et al.This study wasconducted to observe characteristics and pre-weaning growth traits of calvesborn from crossbreeding between Wagyu and Belgian Blue (BB) bulls with BrahmanCross (BX) dams. The experiment was conducted to compare two different crossesBelgian Blue (BB) x BX, Wagyu x BX and also with BX pure breed (BX x BX). Inthe first two crosses, we used Artificial Insemination (AI), while … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 29 Aug 2022 · 8,069 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Diplotypes Associated with Meat Productivity in Cattle Breeds Common in the Territory of the Republic of KazakhstanAskar Mirzahmetovich Nametov, Indira Saltanovna Beishova, Alena Valentinovna Belaya et al.Technologies for genetic labeling of economically useful traits using polymorphic variants of genes that control the rate of growth and development of animals make it possible to assess the genetic potential of an animal immediately after birth, which significantly reduces time and financial costs. This study aimed to identify paired combinations of the genes growth hormone, growth hormone receptor, and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 17 Aug 2022 · 6,187 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCow Efficiency, Relative-Birth Weight and Subsequent Pre-Weaning Growth Performance of Nguni CattleTakalani Judas Mpofu, Khathutshelo Agree Nephawe, Muzi Mandla Ginindza et al.The objective of this study was to evaluate factors influencing Cow Efficiency (CE), Relative-Birth Weight (R-BW), and subsequent pre-weaning growth performance of Nguni cattle in Limpopo Province, South Africa. Factors that were considered were dammed weight at calving, agro-ecological zone, the season of birth, sex of calves, parity, and dam age. Data from Nguni cows and their calves (n = … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 23 May 2022 · 7,141 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpring Growth Rates of Bee Families and the Level of Certain Amino Acids in Bees-Feeders with Stimulating FeedingAlfir Gabdullovich Mannapov, Akmal Abdulvalievich Khudaiberdiev, Ramziya Timergaleevna Mannapova et al.It was found that the spring development of bee colonies most actively occurs against the background of the compositional stimulating feeding of honey mead with the addition of the milk mixture "Nanny 2 with a prebiotic" in a complex with cobalt sulfate (group 4), which, in comparison with the background level, increased the average daily egg-laying capacity of queen bees … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 16 May 2022 · 5,957 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiallel Analysis and Evaluation of Parents and F1 Progenies of Maize (Zea mays L.) for Tolerance to Drought and Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth in the Guinea Savanna Agro-Ecological Zone of GhanaAlhassan Bawa, Isaac Kwahene Addai, Mashark Seidu Abdulai, Al-Hassan IssahakuField studies were conducted to evaluate 6 parents and 30 F1 hybrids of maize for tolerance to drought and Striga hermonthica in Nyankpala, Ghana during the 2014 and 2015 cropping seasons. These genotypes were evaluated for two years on single-row plots of three replicates, in a randomized complete block design. The control plants were planted in July each year which … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2017 · 8,084 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Single and Combined Effect of MC4R and GH Genes on Productive Traits of PigsLyubov Getmantseva, Maria Leonova, Aleksander Usatov et al.The aim of our work is to identify the single and combined effect of MC4R and GH polymorphism genes on growth and reproduction traits of pigs. The study was carried out on 204 crossbred F1 females (♀Landrace х ♂Large White) of the Breeding Farm in Russia. The analyzed productive traits were: The number of Days to 100-kg (Days to 100 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2017 · 8,115 accessesView PDFCite
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 abstractResponses of Rice to Green Manure and Nitrogen Fertilizer ApplicationMd Safiqul Islam, Nitish Kumar Paul, Md Robiul Alam et al.The effect of green manure and nitrogen fertilizer applications on rice performance and post-harvest nutrient status of the soil was studied at the Regional Wheat Research Station of Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI), Shyampur, Rajshahi, Bangladesh.
