Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Yellow Mealworm as a Novel Source of ProteinA. E. Ghaly, F. N. AlkoaikProblem statement: Yellow mealworms of different sizes (4.8-182.7 mg) were grown in a medium of wheat flour and brewer’s yeast (95:5 by weight) to evaluate their potential as a protein source. Approach: There was an initial adjustment period (3-9 days) observed during which the younger larvae (4.8-61.1 mg) grew slowly while the older ones (80.3-182.7 mg) lost weight. After this … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 20,880 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPostnatal Muscle Growth and Allometry in Anatomical Regions of Russian Black-Pied Heifers and their Crosses With Hereford and Charolais Under Intensive RearingIvan Petrovich Prokhorov, Grigorii Sergeyevich Shekhovtsev, Yulia Vasilevna ShoshinaCrossbreeding dairy cattle with specialized beef breeds is an effective strategy to increase beef production, yet data on muscle growth patterns in crossbred heifers remain limited. This study aimed to evaluate the growth intensity and redistribution of muscle mass in anatomical regions of carcasses in Russian Black-Pied heifers and their crosses with Hereford and Charolais breeds. A scientific experiment was … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 10 Aug 2026 · 923 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Diversity as a Biological Control Mechanism for Fruit Tree Diseases: A Comparative ApproachZhichao TangThe traditional methods of fruit tree pest control have long relied on chemical pesticides. This not only leads to increased resistance of pests and diseases but also adversely affects the ecological environment and fruit safety. Although biological control has gradually received attention, the current research on how to systematically use microbial diversity to achieve efficient control and prevention is still … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 8 Apr 2026 · 1,607 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of a Machine Learning Based Mobile and Web Crop Recommendation System for Precision Farming in WardhaAishwarya Kadu, KTV ReddyAgricultural productivity is crucial for economic growth of a nation, especially for countries like India which is highly dependent on agriculture. This study addresses the need for cutting-edge technology to enhance crop productivity by proposing a Mobile/Web-based precision farming system. Leveraging Machine Learning (ML) algorithms, the proposed system recommends optimal crops based on several factors such as environmental parameters (Nitrogen … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 20 Mar 2026 · 1,667 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferences in the Response of Diploid and Tetraploid Anthurium andraeanum Seedling Roots to Salt StressYun Zhang, Yongping Zhang, Yongxu Qiao et al.To investigate the effects of salt stress on the growth, development, and endogenous hormone content of roots in diploid and tetraploid seedlings of Anthurium andraeanum, the enhanced salt tolerance was elucidated. The seedlings of A. andraeanum 'Pink champion' were placed at NaCl concentrations of 0, 50, 100, 150, and 200 mmol·L⁻¹. The results indicated that NaCl stress can reduce leaf … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 29 Jan 2026 · 1,781 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeed Treatment-Based Biocontrol of Tomato Damping off Using Plant Essential Oil and Green Silver NanoparticlesLaila Reklaoui, Zine El Abidine Bzazou Elouazzani, El Touhami Tayebi Ouazzani et al.The fungal pathogen Rhizoctonia solani is a major causal agent of damping-off in tomato plants, leading to severe yield losses worldwide. Conventional fungicides, while effective, raise concerns regarding environmental safety and human health, highlighting the urgent need for sustainable alternatives. In this study, we report for the first time the use of Origanum compactum essential oil to biosynthesize silver nanoparticles … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 2 Jun 2026 · 1,304 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe interplay between Cadmium and Zinc Induced Developmental Perturbations and Apoptosis in Daphnia MagnaNaima Hamid, Siti Nur Airina Binti Ibrahim et al.Assessing combined toxicity provides a realistic and comprehensive approach to determining toxicological effects in aquatic species under environmentally relevant conditions. This study was conducted to understand the effects of single and combined metal mixtures on freshwater flea and Daphnia magna. Environmentally Relevant Concentrations (ERCs) of Cadmium (Cd) and Zinc (Zn) at a low dose (10μg/L) and high dose (30 μg/L) … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 11 Jun 2025 · 6,021 accessesView PDFCite
