Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExamination of Chitinolytic Bacteria in Alginate-Chitosan Encapsulation on Chili Seed Against Damping off Caused by Fusarium oxysporumDwi Suryanto, Affan Indarwan, Erman MunirOne alternative in biological control of plant pathogenic fungi is to provide biological agent inoculant in coated seed. This study was to evaluate potential control and viability of two chitinolytic bacteria, Enterobacter sp. BK15 and Bacillus sp. BK17 of alginate-chitosan encapsulation coated on chili seed against damping off caused by Fusarium oxysporum. Chili seed beads were stored at refrigerator and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 5 Dec 2012 · 7,913 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLevamisole Enhances Cell-Mediated Immune Responses and Reduces Shedding of H9N2 Avian Influenza Virus in Japanese Quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica)Tahoora Shomali, Najmeh Mosleh, Arash AlaeddiniProblem statement: Regarding the role of Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) in reassortment and spreading of avian influenza (AI) viruses and inadequate protection of vaccination in this species, the present study aimed to evaluate the effect of levamisole as an immunomodulatory agent on cell-mediated immunity (CMI), antibody responses and shedding of H9N2 AI virus in experimentally infected quails. Approach: On … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 6 Mar 2012 · 7,651 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Metarhizium anisopliae var. anisopliae (Deuteromycotina: Hyphomycete) Isolates and their Effects on Subterranean Termite Coptotermes curvignathus (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae)Pik-Kheng Hoe, Choon-Fah J. Bong, Kadir Jugah, Amartalingam RajanProblem statement: Coptotermes curvignathus (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) is a common termite pest found in oil palm plantation planted on peat. Currently, the control methods focus on using insecticides that lead to high cost and adverse effect to the environment. Approach: Biological control like the use of entomopathogens provides an alternative control method for termite infestation problem. However, several factors need to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 10,542 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhanced Survival and Nodule Occupancy of Pigeon pea Nodulating Rhizobium sp. ST1 expressing fegA Gene of Bradyrhizobium japonicum 61A152Falguni R. Joshi, Dhwani K. Desai, G. Archana, Anjana J. DesaiProblem statement: Rhizobial isolates belonging to genera (Rhizobium sp. and Mesorhizobium sp.) in our laboratory produced only catecholate type of siderophores. Although FhuA and FegA (ferrichrome receptors) homologs were found to be present in the sequenced genomes of few rhizobia (e.g., 1 in R. etli and 2 in Mesorhizobium sp. BNC1), laboratory isolates of the corresponding genera failed to utilize … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,865 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Vaccine-Derived Mutants of Avian Metapneumoviruses Isolated from Turkeys in EgyptAbdel-Satar Arafa, Wessam Mady, Ahmed Hussein et al.Avian metapneumovirus (aMPV) causes acute respiratory infection in turkeys with sudden onset and rapid spread in the infected flocks. Vaccinated flocks frequently showed clinical signs typical like the non-vaccinated flocks in Egypt, this situation suggests a virulent vaccine virus was circulating in the field. Oropharyngeal and nasal sinus swabs were collected from 100 turkeys from 10 commercial farms with mild … …Current Research in Virology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 12 Aug 2015 · 12,748 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHide Dehairing and Laundry Detergent Compatibility Testing of Thermostable and Solvents Tolerant Alkaline Protease from Hot Spring Isolate Bacillus cohniiU3Pravin R. Dudhgara, Bhavsar Sunil, Ghelani AnjanaIn the present study, alkaline protease producing thermophilic Bacillus cohniiU3 strain was isolation from Unnai hot spring, India. The maximum production of protease (344 U/mL) was reported after 72 h of inoculation at 50°C in shake flask culture using the gelatin casein medium. The protease was found to remain active up to 96 h and production was growth dependent. The … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 23 Jul 2015 · 7,335 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHormonal and Histopathological Alterations in Pituitary Glands and Reproductive Organs of Male and Female Mice Orally Inoculated with Pasteurella Multocida Type B: 2 and its LipopolysaccharidesFaez Firdaus Jesse Abdullah, Lawan Adamu, Abdulnasir Tijjani et al.Oral infections of mice as animal model with Pasteurella multocida type B: 2 and its lipopolysaccharides is liable to cause detrimental alterations in the pituitary glands, which results in disruption of reproductive hormonal levels as well as organ functions in the male and female animals; thereby impeding the fertility of at risk animal population. Therefore, this study was designed to … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 23 Dec 2014 · 7,554 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential Role of Migratory Quail in Spreading of Some Zoonotic Pathogens in EgyptAhmed I. Youssef, Dalia H. MansourThis study aimed to illustrate the potential role of wild migratory quails in the epidemiology of some zoonotic pathogens in Egypt. Ninety four apparently healthy migratory quails were collected from public markets after being trapped during hunting season from the North Sinai. Oral, cloaca and organs (liver, lung and heart) swabs were collected for bacteriological and viral examination. Bacteriological examination … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 13 Dec 2014 · 7,530 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContribution of Primary Spikes Vs Tillers to Total Deoxynivalenol in Harvested Grain of Wheat and BarleyPravin Gautam, Scott Halley, Jeffrey M. SteinFormation of higher number of tillers is desirable for higher grain yield in both wheat and barley; tillers have delayed physiological development. Studies addressing the contribution of secondary tillers in final DON concentration for wheat and barley are limited. This project aims to improve our understanding of the relationship between FHB symptoms and DON concentration by examining the contribution of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 25 Jul 2012 · 7,912 accessesView PDFCite
