Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMorpho-physiological Differences of the Spermatheca of Attini Ants (Hymenoptera: Myrmicinae)Gabriela Ortiz, Maria Izabel Camargo-MathiasThe insect's spermatheca store the spermatozoa from the time of copulation until the fertilization of the eggs and consists of a sac, usually associated to glands. The ant species Atta laevigata, Atta sexdens sexdens, Atta sexdens piriventris, Acromyrmex coronatus and Cyphomyrmex muelleri are considered pests, as they cause economics losses to several crops. The spermatheca of these species were examined … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,583 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Biorganic Fertilizers on Productivity and Quality of Vegetables in the System of "Green" Vegetable Farming in the Conditions of the South-East of KazakhstanTemirzhan Erkasovich Aitbayev, Zharas Zholdybaevich Mamyrbekov, Akbope Temirzhanovna Aitbayeva et al.The purpose of the research was to study an influence of biofertilizers and new types of biological products for the yield and quality of vegetables in the South-East of Kazakhstan. In Kazakhstan, organic farming began to develop after the adoption of the Act "On Organic farming" in 2015. The development of "green" technologies is very important for the production of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 29 Jan 2018 · 7,941 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction and Quality in Dwarf Napier Grass Pasture Fertilized by Digested Effluent of Manure under Two-Years of Dairy Cow-Grazing in Warm Regions of JapanHadijah Hasyim, Ahmad Wadi, Yasuyuki Ishii et al.Dwarf Napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum) pasture is suitable for beef cow grazing in warm regions of Japan, while it is not assessed for the suitability by a herd of dairy cows in the region. This study was conducted to determine the effects of Digested Effluent (DE) application on herbage yield and quality, Herbage Consumption (HC) and Dry Matter Intake (DMI) … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 21 May 2016 · 8,853 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECT OF MICRONUTRIENTS-ENRICHED FERTILIZERS ON BASAL STEM ROT DISEASE INCIDENCE AND SEVERITY ON OIL PALM (ELAEIS GUINEENSIS JACQ.) SEEDLINGSFabien Fonguimgo Tengoua, Mohamed M. Hanafi, A. S. Idris et al.Basal stem rot caused by Ganoderma boninense constitutes a serious threat to oil palm industry in Southeast Asia, especially in Malaysia and Indonesia and in Papua New Guinea and Pacific Islands. It is also expanding in some oil palm growing countries in Latin America and Africa and will soon become a worldwide concern to oil palm cultivation. To date, none … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 5 Dec 2014 · 8,014 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASCORBIC ACID FOLIIAR SPRAY COUNTERACTING EFFECT OF SALINITY ON GROWTH, NUTRIENTS CONCENTRATIONS, PHOTOSYNTHESIS, ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITIES AND LIPID PEROXIDATION OF BEAN (PHASEULUS VULGARIS L.) CULTIVARSZeinab A. Salama, El-Zanaty A.A. Abou El-Nour, Mohamed M. El Fouly, Alaa A. GaafarA water culture experiment was carried out in the Department of Fertilization Technology at National Research Centre, Cairo, Egypt, to investigate the effect of Ascorbic Acid (AsA) foliar application and salinity stress (100 ppm and 100 mmoL NaCl) on growth, nutrients concentration and some biochemical parameters of two kidney bean (Phaseulus Vulgaris L.) cultivars. Salinity caused significant reduction in growth … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 16 May 2014 · 7,900 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCOMPARING GIBBS ENERGY RELATIONSHIPS FOR AMMONIA VOLATILIZATIONS FROM AGRICULTURAL SOILS FOR POTATO PRODUCTIONGuodong Liu, Yuncong Li, Ashok AlvaSoil drought, that can be enhanced by global warming increases ammonia (NH3) volatilization. This laboratory study was conducted with two soils: Krome Gravelly Loam (KGL) from Florida and Warden Silt Loam (WSL) from Washington State and two fertilizers: Ammonium sulfate [(NH4)2SO4] or ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3). Two water regimes including 20 and 80% Field Capacity (FC) were used at 20°C which … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 8 Feb 2014 · 7,487 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhosphorus Biogeochemical Cycling in a Sugar Cane AgroecosystemD. Sequera, D. Lopez-HernandezThe annual harvest of sugarcane plantations together with the burning of the crop before harvest, a common practice of management of sugarcane plantations in South America, leads to the loss of significant amounts of nutrients in those agroecosystems. Thus prescribed burning operations could progressively diminish the level of soil organic matter and increase nutrient deficiency in soils of sugar cane … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 29 Jan 2013 · 7,544 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of Endometrial Thickness on Intracytoplasmic Sperm InjectionMohammed Al-SunaidiProblem statement: Endometrial receptivity is a key factor in successful outcome of in vitro fertilization. The endometrial receptivity is determined clinically by estimation of endometrial thickness and pattern by ultrasonography. This study was performed to evaluate the overall effect of endometrial thickness on pregnancy rate, multiple pregnancy rate and miscarriage rate in infertile women undergoing Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) cycles … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 13 Feb 2012 · 7,709 accessesView PDFCite
