Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Overview of Malaria ControlEmmanuel Chanda, Mulakwa Kamuliwo, Richard W. Steketee et al.Malaria remains a serious global public health problem and a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in sub Saharan Africa. In Zambia the disease is endemic with stable transmission, accounting for 40% of all out-patient attendances and is responsible for 20% deaths among children under five. Scaling up of scientifically proven high impact preventive, curative and supportive interventions and deploying … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 29 Apr 2013 · 7,960 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiscrimination Capacity of RAPD, ISSR and SSR Markers and of their Effectiveness in Establishing Genetic Relationship and Diversity among Egyptian and Saudi Wheat CultivarsSalah El-Din El-Assal, Ahmed GaberProblem statement: Yield crop cultivars and landraces are valuable sources of genetic variations that the knowledge and implication of these variations are critical in the plant breeding programs. our major objective of this study is investigating the discriminating capacity of RAPD, ISSR and SSR markers and of their effectiveness in establishing genetic relationship and diversity among Egyptian and Saudi wheat … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 9 Mar 2012 · 7,768 accessesView PDF Cite

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 · 8,250 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorn (Zea Mays L.) Plant Characteristics and Grain Yield Response to N Fertilization Programs in No-Tillage SystemKesi Liu, Pawel WiatrakProblem statement: Nitrogen application timing and Nitrogen (N) rate are two important factors to influence corn production in No-Tillage (NT) system, but N recommendations may need to be revised due to insufficient rainfall in dryland rain-fed environment. Approach: This study was to determine the effects of two N application timing (planting and split application at planting and V6 corn growth … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2011 · 8,340 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorn Response to Nitrogen Timing and Rate under Strip Tillage and Low-Yield Environment in Southeastern Coastal PlainsPawel Wiatrak, Ahmad Khalilian, Guihua ChenProblem statement: Insufficient rainfall under low yield environment may affect nitrogen management, plant growth indices and grain yields of corn (Zea mays L.). Approach: The objective of this study was to determine the effects of two N application timings (all at planting and as split application with N applied at planting and V6 stage) and five N fertilizer rates (0, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 10 Mar 2011 · 7,992 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Hevea brasiliensis (Latex Timber Clone: RRIM 2001 and RRIM 3001) in Relation to Different Water StressShafar Jefri Mokhatar, Wan Noordin Daud, Nursyazwina Md ZamriAbstract: Problem statement: Rubber, Hevea brasiliensis, has been traditionally planted in the humid tropics, which is characterized by high rainfall throughout the year. However, due to an increase in world’s demand for rubber, future planting will be established in dry areas, characterized by prevalence water stress. Utilizing limited resource, in dry areas or to use water wisely is very important. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 10,906 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Efficient Production of Oligosaccharides by a Reaction using Whole Mammalian Cells as BiocatalystsTomohisa Kato, Rie Mitsumori, Kenichi HatanakaProblem statement: Mammalian cells were used for the production of oligosaccharides by saccharide primer method. However, because cells in culture are used, productivity of oligosaccharides is low. Approach: In saccharide primer method employing cells under culture, glycosylation was performed only by mixing the collected cells in reaction mixtures. Saccharide primer, 12-azidododecyl β-lactoside that mimics lactosylceramide (LacCer), was incubated with various … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,439 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemoval of Dye from Textile Wastewater Using Plant Oils Under Different pH and Temperature ConditionsA.S. Mahmoud, Abdel E. Ghaly, M.S. BrooksThe effectiveness of five plant oils (cottonseed, olive, canola sunflower and used cooking oil) for the removal of dye from textile wastewater was evaluated. The study revealed that the dye removal efficiency increased as the temperature was increased. Under low pH, both the oil and dye split into two components each. Neither one of the oil components joined with either … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 8,351 accessesView PDF Cite
