According to many research has done before including our article about the glyoxalase I gene from jojoba which exhibits moderate … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 2 · 12 Jun 2025 · 3,314 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBIOCHEMICAL, NUTRIENT AND INHIBITORY CHARACTERISTICS OF STREPTOMYCES CULTURED FROM A HYPERSALINE ESTUARY, THE LAGUNA MADRE (TEXAS)Luis E. Espinoza, Anita L. Davelos Baines, Kristine L. LoweStreptomyces are common soil bacteria that produce secondary metabolites, including several antibiotics; however, the characteristics of marine Streptomyces are largely unknown. Sediment samples were taken from 3 sites in the Laguna Madre to isolate marine Streptomyces. Sediment was diluted, spread onto synthetic seawater media to estimate the total bacterial density of the samples and spread onto starch casein agar to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 7 Feb 2013 · 7,219 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDrying of Poultry Manure for Use as Animal FeedA. E. Ghaly, K. N. MacDonaldThe poultry industry is one of the largest and fastest growing sectors of livestock production in the world. The estimated 2010 world flock was over 18 billion birds with a yearly manure output of 22 million tonnes. Storage and disposal of raw poultry manure have become an environmental problem because of the associated air, water and soil pollution.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLiquefaction Susceptibility in the Northern Provinces of ThailandSupot Teachavorasinskun, Pichai Pattararattanakul, Pulpong PongvithayapranuProblem statement: There are quite a few active faults recently found in the western and northern parts of Thailand, which could possibly induce earthquakes of magnitude (ML) of 5.5-6.5. Although seismic design code has been enforced in the area since 1980, the fundamental knowledge on dynamic soil behavior has not been extensively attained. Approach: Collection of existing borehole information in … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,331 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Characterization of Phosphate Solubilizing Activity of Endophytic Fungi from Zingiberaceous SpeciesErman Munir, Yurnaliza, Anisa Lutfia, Adrian HartantoPhosphorus (P), which is one of the less available soil macronutrients, is important for plant growth and metabolism. A promising strategy to increase the P uptake by plants is by introducing Phosphate-Solubilizing Microorganisms (PSM) into the P-deficient regions, to convert P into soluble forms through organic acids secreted by the PSMs. The aim of this study was to characterize the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 27 Mar 2022 · 6,651 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeatures of Microelement Composition of Ordinary Chernozems of the Azov and Lower Don RegionsTatiana M. Minkina, Nikolay N. Miroshnichenko, Aleksandr I. Fateev et al.Ordinary chernozems in the Azov Plain have a low background content of mobile zinc compounds, a sufficient supply with copper and an increased content of lead compounds. This specificity of the regional microelement composition is due to the high carbonate content in the soil profiles, the natural enrichment of littoral geochemical landscapes and the effect of the significant sources of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2015 · 7,396 accessesView PDF Cite
