Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Pachyrrizus erosus Extract on the Thrips Attack Phenomenon (Thripidae) in Capsicum annuum L. LeaveTasmin Tangngareng, Asni Johari, Ratna Sari Dewi et al.Thrips are one of the main pests of chili plants. Until now, the method of controlling pests and diseases that are considered highly effective is the chemical method. Chemical controls have a major impact on environmental damage. One alternative that can be done is to control biologically using yam seed extract (Pachyrrizus erosus Urban). This study aims to analyze the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 24 Jan 2019 · 7,430 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFractionation of Organic Carbon in Arial Beel Wetland Soils of BangladeshMonera Akter Eva, Mahmudul Islam Piash, Md. Faruque Hossain, Zakia ParveenA study was conducted to determine the organic carbon fractions in the vertical sections of a benchmark wetland soil of Bangladesh (Arial Beel) and their dynamics that directly affect the biogeochemistry of soil, water and plant biomass ecosystem. Two distinctive soil series viz. Sara and Arial are characterized such as pH, moisture content, textural class, CEC, organic carbon (SOC), bulk … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 4 May 2018 · 9,139 accessesView PDFCite
