Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Heavy Metals Uptake and Translocation by Aquilaria malaccensis Planted in Soils Containing Sewage SludgeKeeren Sundara Rajoo, Arifin Abdu, Hazandy Abdul-Hamid et al.Increase in human population has resulted in an enormous growth in the volume of wastewater. The conventional methods of sewage sludge disposal, that is the by-product of wastewater treatment, are costly and not environment-friendly. An ideal way for sewage sludge management is by using it as a soil amendment in agricultural land due to sewage sludge’s high organic matter content. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Aug 2013 · 7,085 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Complete Micro Nutrient Fertilizer Application on Soybean Yield and Yield ComponentsFarimah Ghannadi Behrouzi, Sardar Germchi, Mehrdad YarniaIn last decades, sever population growth cause to enormous problems in developing countries. One of the effective factors in improving of quantity and quality of agricultural products is optimal application of chemical fertilizers. Hence, any research in this field can be an effective step to decrease production costs and increase productivity. In order to evaluation effects of complete micro nutrient … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 5 Oct 2012 · 8,132 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCapability of Streptomyces spp. in Controlling Bacterial Leaf Blight Disease in Rice PlantsRatih Dewi Hastuti, Yulin Lestari, Rasti Saraswati et al.Problem statement: Bacterial Leaf Blight (BLB) caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is the most damaging disease in lowland rice growing areas in Indonesia. Streptomyces spp. have been known as a producer of antimicrobial compounds that can be used as biocontrol agents. This study examined the ability of three promising indigenous Streptomyces isolates which were previously selected from in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 30 May 2012 · 9,366 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForest Fires and Resuspension of Radionuclides into the AtmosphereFernando P. Carvalho, Joao M. Oliveira, Margarida MaltaProblem statement: Forest fires are especially frequent around the Mediterranean Sea basin in the summer period and might be able to release naturally-occurring and man-made radionuclides from plant biomass and inject them into the atmosphere. The impact of this radioactivity on populations was not investigated before. Approach: Radionuclide analysis was performed in plants, in smoke from plant burning and in … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 14 Jan 2012 · 7,362 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Ecological Survey of Microorganisms Associated with Plantain Roots (Rhizosphere)Bello O.S., G.A. UtangProblem statement: Micro-organisms are more predominant around root zone and as such play a vital role to plant. Micro-organisms are diverse and have property modification which are beneficial to plant growth and root development. Approach: The lack of knowledge on the specific microorganisms associated with plantain roots in Cross River State soils (which inturn leads to an avoidable loss of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2011 · 8,271 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAspergillus Niger Metabolites Efficacies Against the Mosquito Larval (Culex Quinquefasciatus, Anopheles Stephensi and Aedes Aegypti) Population after Column ChromatographyNamita Soni, Soam PrakashProblem statement: Mosquito is a very common vector of several tropical diseases such as malaria, filariasis, dengue and chikungunya. Till todate, many xenobiotics have been used to control mosquito population and protect people from mosquito born diseases but increasing rate of resistance against these xenobiotics is a major concern in the disease control management. In contrast, extensive use of these … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 21 Dec 2011 · 15,211 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoybean Response to 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylate Deaminase-Producing Pseudomonas under Field Soil ConditionsEdi Husen, Aris Tri Wahyudi, Antonius Suwanto, GiyantoProblem Statement: 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylate (ACC) deaminase-producing bacteria have been known to promote plant growth by decreasing ethylene inhibition of various plant processes. However, their efficacy under field soil conditions may vary depending on the range and variability of the environmental factors. This study examined the ability of eight promising isolates of ACC deaminase-producing Pseudomonas to enhance soybean growth under acidic and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 24 Jun 2011 · 8,252 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Interregional Commodity FlowsWirach Hirun, Sompong SirisoponsilpProblem statement: Commodity Flow Survey (CFS) was launched to collect comprehensive freight flow data throughout the kingdom of Thailand. The survey’s database is the most complete collection of commodity flow data in Thailand. The need to reveal interregional freight characteristics using available data from the CFS led to the objectives of this research. Approach: An origin destination matrix based on … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 22 Nov 2010 · 8,928 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSummarizing Spatial Distribution Density, Movement Patterns and Food Resources to Study the Impacts of Logging and Forest Conversion on Orang-utan PopulationRaymond Alfred, Koh Pei Hue, Lee Shan Khee, Rayner AlfredProblem statement: Orang-utan is classified as a totally protected species and is listed as an endangered species in Borneo. The survival of this species is highly dependent on the existence and quality of the lowland forest of Sabah. However, most of the pristine habitats in the lowland area have been converted into other land use activities such as a large … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,189 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Simulation Model Estimates of the Intercropping Advantage of an Immature-Rubber, Banana and Pineapple SystemMohamadu Boyie Jalloh, Wan Sulaiman Wan Harun, Jamal Talib et al.Problem statement: Intercropping has been shown to have many advantages but it is fallacious to conclude it is always a better cropping system. Little is known about a new double-hedgerow intercropping of rubber, banana and pineapple in relation to its effects on growth and yield of the component crops when compared to their monocrops. Simulation modeling offers a cheaper and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 9,005 accessesView PDFCite
