Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEcosphere Protection through Green EnergyRelly Victoria V. Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella et al.A systemic approach, comprising all research and development activities that support the expansion of eco-efficient industrial and social systems fulfilling market and social-cultural constrains, is required to accomplish the challenge for competitiveness and sustainability along with an increasingly dynamic and complex global scientific, industrial and cultural scenarios. Ecosphere protection through the implementation of green energy is becoming a daily technological … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 10 · 18 Oct 2016 · 8,808 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,402 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGaussian Dispersion Model to Estimate the Dispersion of Particulate Matters (Pm2.5) and Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) Concentrations on Tribal Land, OklahomaDejene Alemayehu, Francine HackettAir quality in most parts of Kay County is good and unlikely to cause major health problems. However, Kaw Nation wants to know if the concentration of Particulate matters (PM2.5) and Sulfur dioxide (SO2) released from power plants, refinery and carbon black plant in Oklahoma reaches the Tribal land at Kanza Travel Plaza, Braman, Kay Co. Oklahoma. Kanza Travel Plaza … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 8 Dec 2015 · 7,967 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Endophytic Treatments on Plant Growth Performance and Disease Incidences in Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merril) Cultivar JS-335 against Challenge Inoculation with R. solaniJitendra Dalal, Nikhilesh KulkarniEndophytes could be efficient biological control agent in sustainable crop production and offer unique opportunity for crop protection and biological control. Present study was carried out to investigate the effects of indigenous endophytic microorganisms Pseudomonas sp., Bacillus sp., Burkholderia sp. Streptomyces sp., Actinoplanes sp., Alternaria sp. and Fusarium sp. on plant growth and disease control against challenge inoculation with Rhizoctonia … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2015 · 7,673 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECTS 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 · 7,553 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSuppression of Salicylic Acid-Mediated Plant Defense Responses During Initial Infection of Dyer's Woad by Puccinia thlaspeosBradley R. Kropp, Elizabeth ThomasProblem statement: Puccinia thlaspeos is a microcyclic rust pathogen that is being investigated as a potential biocontrol agent of the noxious weed, dyer’s woad (Isatis tinctoria). Although, the initial events in the colonization of dyer’s woad by the rust pathogen has been elucidated using scanning electron microscopy and PCR, little is known regarding the susceptibility response of this plant to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2011 · 8,035 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of ced-9 dsRNA on Caenorhabditis elegans and Meloidogyne incognitaRobert T. Gaeta, Abdellatif Bahaji, Glenda W. Polack, Alejandro Calderón-UrreaAbstract: Problem Statement: In metazoans Programmed Cell Death (PCD) is essential for proper development. Suppression of PCD is needed to guarantee cell survival and in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans the regulation of PCD is accomplished by the function of the ced-9 gene. Approach: In this work the use of double stranded RNA (dsRNA) to knock-down ced-9 gene function was tested … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 15 Dec 2010 · 9,456 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSalicylic Acid Protects Nitrate Reductase Activity, Growth and Proline in Amaranth and Tomato Plants during Water DeficitC. E. Umebese, T. O. Olatimilehin, T. A. OgunsusiProblem statement: Seedlings of Amaranthus hybridus cv. NHAC-3 (large green, amaranth) and Lycopersicum esculentum cv. Roma (tomato) were subjected to 7 days water stress at Early Vegetative (EV), Late Vegetative (LV), Early Flowering (EF) and Late Flowering (LF) stages of growth to study the impact on leaf water potential (ψw), Nitrate Reductase Activity (NRA), growth (plant height, shoot and root … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 9,569 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVoltage Sag Effects on the Process Continuity of a Refinery with Induction Motors LoadsTarek I. ElShennawy, Mahmoud A. El-Gammal, Amr Y. Abou-GhazalaProblem statement: Process continuity of industrial plants (like a refinery) is subjected to several shutdowns due to voltage sags causing large induction motors to trip, either by undervoltage or by overcurrent relays, sometimes by the mechanical protection. These unplanned shutdowns cost the plant tens of thousands of dollars per shutdown in addition to material damage costs, restart charges and any … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,132 accessesView PDFCite
