Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMixed Species Grazing of Cattle and Goats on Gastrointestinal Infections of Haemonchus ContortusRenita Marshall, Sebhatu Gebrelul, Lisa Gray, Yemane GhebreiyessusAt the present time, the meat of goat is the fastest growing class of livestock in the U.S.A. Due to the sub-tropical climate in the South Eastern region of the US, internal parasites pose a major constraint to the industry. The blood-feeding nematode, Haemonchus contortus results in production losses and even death in untreated animals. The control of H. contortus … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 4 Jul 2012 · 8,531 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEarth-To-Space Improved Model for Rain Attenuation Prediction at Ku-BandMandeep Singh Jit Singh, S. S.I. Hassan, M. F. Ain et al.A model for predicting rain attenuation on earth-to-space was developed by using the measurement data obtained from tropical and equatorial region. The proposed rain attenuation model uses the complete rainfall rate cumulative distribution as input data. It was shown that significant improvements in terms of prediction error over existing attenuation model obtained. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2006 · 6,729 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractcDNA Cloning and Characterization of the House Dust Mite Allergen Sui p 2Joshua Evans M. Bajao, John Donnie A. RamosSuidasia pontifica (Sp) is a House Dust Mite (HDM) species found in tropical urban residential areas which causes sensitization of up to 75% of allergic patients. Cloning of allergens from Sp is a significant initial step in understanding the clinical significance of this HDM species. The study describes the cloning and in silico characterization of the group 2 allergen gene … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 14 May 2020 · 7,891 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Watershed Structures in Controlling Runoff - Case Study of Sardasht Basin in IRANSeyedeh Zahra Hosseini-Teshnizi, Ghodratollah Davoudi, Seyedeh Laleh Razavi, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariIn order to investigate the performance of constructed structures in Sardasht watershed, Soil and Water Assessment Tools model for simulation of runoff and sediment during the studied period of 1996-2012 was carried out for two cases of existence and absence of flood control structures. From 2007 onwards by performing watershed operations in these sub-basins, the average runoff rate decreased about … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 26 Feb 2020 · 7,351 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNASA Satellites Help us to Quickly Detect Forest FiresRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh et al.The main idea is that, as the forests of the planet are getting smaller, too much wood is cut and the forests are made too slow, there are also large forest fires due to excessive heat, of people arguing with the law, or simply by chance. Extinguishing fires are generally difficult, interventions being difficult anyway due to the increased fire, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 20 Feb 2018 · 8,094 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Temperature and Precipitation on Global Mangrove Rhizophora Species DistributionAroloye O. Numbere, Gerardo R. CamiloClimate change influences the distribution of mangroves towards tropical or temperate regions of the world. We hypothesized that Rhizophora species organized along complex spatial and temporal temperature and precipitation gradient. To determine the affinity of different mangroves with climatic parameters, the response of eight Rhizophora species to seven climatic parameters (i.e., annual mean temperature, annual precipitation, maximum temperature of warmest … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 5 Oct 2017 · 8,266 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment, Polymorphism and Cross-Species Transferability of Genomic SSR Markers in Duabanga Moluccana, an Indigenous Tree Species from SarawakKit-Siong Liew, Wei-Seng Ho, Shek-Ling Pang, Julaihi AbdullahIn this study, we used ISSR-suppression methods to develop a set of SSR markers for Duabanga moluccana. It is an indigenous fast growing tropical tree species. A total of 44 SSR regions were identified and specific primer pairs were designed. The SSR motifs contained perfect compound with 24 (54.5%) occurrences, followed by the imperfect compounds with 8 (18.2%), simple perfect … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2016 · 7,789 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractIMMUNOLOGY IN BRAZIL: CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOUNG SCIENTISTSCarolina PanisThe Brazilian research community has recently emerged as a scientific power. Brazil’s intellectual production has significantly increased in recent years, mostly due to the growing number of young scientists in the country. Approximately 10,000 individuals are conferred the PhD degree in Brazil annually, with corresponding publications of a significant number of research papers. Brazil’s contribution to scientific publications constitutes approximately … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 26 Sep 2014 · 7,160 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Spatial Distribution of Apis Dorsata Host Plants Using an Integrated Geographical Information System-Remote Sensing ApproachIzzat F. Ibrahim, Siva K. Balasundram, Nur-Ashikin P. Abdullah et al.Apis dorsata is one of the important honeybee species in tropical and subtropical regions that forages on various plants including herbs, grasses, forest trees and plantation trees. However, information on the spatial distribution of various pollen sources of Apis dorsata is still lacking. This study aimed at mapping the spatial distribution of the major honeybee plants that serve as pollen … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 20 Sep 2012 · 8,586 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTiO2 Nanoparticles-Coated Polypropylene Copolymer as Photocatalyst on Methylene Blue Photodegradation under Solar ExposureHasniah Aliah, Mahardika Prasetya Aji, Masturi et al.Problem statement: Pollutions of water bodies by dye wastes from textile industries and other sources have become critical consideration.
