Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiallel Analysis and Evaluation of Parents and F1 Progenies of Maize (Zea mays L.) for Tolerance to Drought and Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth in the Guinea Savanna Agro-Ecological Zone of GhanaAlhassan Bawa, Isaac Kwahene Addai, Mashark Seidu Abdulai, Al-Hassan IssahakuField studies were conducted to evaluate 6 parents and 30 F1 hybrids of maize for tolerance to drought and Striga hermonthica in Nyankpala, Ghana during the 2014 and 2015 cropping seasons. These genotypes were evaluated for two years on single-row plots of three replicates, in a randomized complete block design. The control plants were planted in July each year which … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 25 Mar 2017 · 8,088 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Approach to Study Stimulating Effect of the Pre-Sowing Barley Seeds Treatment in the Electromagnetic FieldAliya S. Kasakova, Igor V. Yudaev, Michael G. Fedorishchenko et al.Improvement of the agricultural crops seeds quality with their pre-sowing treatment in the electromagnetic field and the subsequent increase in grain yield and studying the mechanisms of stimulating effects – all those are the important problems of science and practice of the crop-growing sector. The purpose of the presented research was to study the mechanism for increasing the germinating ability … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 4 May 2018 · 7,351 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of Subacute Ruminal Acidosis on Milk Fatty Acid Profile in Dairy CattleC. Mitchell, O. ALZahal, M.M. Or-Rashid et al.The objective of this experiment was to examine the effect of Subacute Ruminal Acidosis (SARA) on milk fatty acid (FA) profiles with emphasis on odd-chain and branched-chain FA. Sixteen multiparous Holstein dairy cows (618±35 kg of body weight, 221±32 days in milk) were used in a randomized complete-block design. During week 1, all cows received a high-forage diet (90% chopped … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 Apr 2016 · 7,746 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModels of Winter Wheat Yield Based on Calcareous Chernozem Fertility ParametersOlga A. Biryukova, Dmitry V. Bozhkov, Tatiana M. Minkina et al.The use of polyelement diagnostics and regression analysis for predicting the yield of winter wheat at different stages of vegetation is considered. It has been established that the prediction and integrated assessment of grain yield and quality should be performed with consideration for the balance of macro-and micronutrients in the grain and the aboveground biomass of plants. Possibility of predicting … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 1 Jan 2016 · 7,674 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResponses of Rice to Green Manure and Nitrogen Fertilizer ApplicationMd Safiqul Islam, Nitish Kumar Paul, Md Robiul Alam et al.The effect of green manure and nitrogen fertilizer applications on rice performance and post-harvest nutrient status of the soil was studied at the Regional Wheat Research Station of Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI), Shyampur, Rajshahi, Bangladesh. The experiment comprised two sets of treatments: (i) green manure application (Crotalaria jusncea, Sesbania aculeata, Sesbania rostrata,Vigna radiata, and Phaseolus mungo) and (ii) application … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 1 Sep 2015 · 7,976 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEVALUATION OF NITROGEN APPLICATION METHODS AND RATES WITH NUTRISPHERE-N ON CORN IN SOUTHEASTERN COASTAL PLAINSPawel WiatrakApplication method of Nitrogen (N) and Nutrisphere-N may influence corn (Zea mays L.) growth and yields under dryland conditions. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of two N application methods (all at planting and split application with 35 kg N ha-1 applied at planting and remaining N at V6 stage) and five N rates (0, 45, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 4 Jan 2014 · 7,301 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfuence of Seed Coating with Micronutrients on Growth and Yield of Winter Wheat in Southeastern Coastal PlainsPawel WiatrakPolymer seed coating with micronutrients may provide important nutrients during plant growth and improve yields. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of three seed application rates (265, 395 and 530 mL 100 kg seeds-1) of polymer based mixture of Copper (Cu), Manganese (Mn) and Zinc (Zn) micronutrients on dryland winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) near Blackville, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 8,545 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 · 7,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Rumen Acid Load on Postpartum Performance and Blood Metabolic Responses in Transition Holstein CowsSadjad Danesh Mesgaran, Alireza Vakili, Alireza Heravi Moosavi, Ghasem KoolabadiProblem statement: The transition period is the most stressful time in the production cycle of a dairy cow because of depressed feed intake, endocrine and metabolic changes at parturition. The aim was to determine the effect of rumen acid load on postpartum performance and metabolic parameters in transition Holstein cows. Approach: The Acidogenicity Values (AV) of the diets were determined … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 25 May 2011 · 7,444 accessesView PDFCite
