Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleISOLATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF RHIZOBIA AND PLANT GROWTH-PROMOTING RHIZOBACTERIA AND THEIR EFFECTS ON GROWTH OF RICE SEEDLINGSK. Z. Tan, O. Radziah, M. S. Halimi et al.Biofertilizer is a relatively safer, environmentally friendly and cost-effective approach as an alternative to reduce chemical fertilizer usage. The selection of bacterial strains with multiple beneficial characteristics are important to maximize the effectiveness on the host plant. Due to aforementioned interest, several Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacterial (PGPR) and rhizobial strains were isolated from rice and legume roots, respectively, at four locations … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 15 Apr 2014 · 10,906 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effects of Dietary Whole Rice Hull as Insoluble Fiber on the Flock Uniformity of Pullets and on the Egg Performance and Intestinal Mucosa of Laying HensTossaporn Incharoen, Patchanida ManeechoteOur two experiments were intended to investigate the effects of dietary Whole Rice Hull (WRH) as insoluble fiber on the flock uniformity of pullets and the performance, egg quality and intestinal mucosa structure of laying hens. In experiment 1, a total of 1,500 chicks (4 weeks old) with the same uniform weight were randomly separated into three treatments of 500 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 2 Nov 2013 · 8,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHistological Adaptations of the Gastrointestinal Tract of Broilers Fed Diets Containing Insoluble Fiber from Rice Hull MealTossaporn IncharoenThese two experiments were aimed to determine the effects of diets containing high levels of insoluble fiber from Rice Hull Meal (RHM) on performance and intestinal histological variables of broilers. In the first experiment, 150 10-day-old Hubbard male broiler chicks were randomly allocatted to three treatments and fed diets containing RHM at 0, 50 and 100 g kg-1 until 42 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 20 Jun 2013 · 7,986 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComprehensive Investigation into the Exergy Values of Six Rice HusksYaning Zhang, A.E. Ghaly, Bingxi LiExergy is a measurement of how far a certain system or material deviates from a state of equilibrium with the environment and it is a useful tool for improving the efficiency of energy-resource use. Based on the previous work, the exergy values of six rice husks were investigated in this study.
