Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCapability of Streptomyces spp. in Controlling Bacterial Leaf Blight Disease in Rice PlantsRatih Dewi Hastuti, Yulin Lestari, Rasti Saraswati et al.Problem statement: Bacterial Leaf Blight (BLB) caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is the most damaging disease in lowland rice growing areas in Indonesia. Streptomyces spp. have been known as a producer of antimicrobial compounds that can be used as biocontrol agents. This study examined the ability of three promising indigenous Streptomyces isolates which were previously selected from in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 30 May 2012 · 9,363 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Evaluation of Wireless Sensor Network Channel in Agricultural ApplicationNaseer Sabri, S. A. Aljunid, R. B. Ahmad et al.Problem statement: In this study, the behavior of small scale fading channel due to a moving sink node of a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) or moving of surrounding objects is presented. Approach: Specifically, this research introduces the effects of multipath and scattering on the transmitted signal due to mobile sink node within forest or closed field filled of reflectors and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 24 Nov 2011 · 7,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIncorporation of Bentazone with Exserohilum rostratum for Controlling Cyperus iriaFranklin Ragai Kundat, Loo Hong Shen, Osumanu Haruna AhmedProblem statement: Various methods are used to counter the population of Cyperus iria in rice fields and among the most common method are chemical approaches. Chemical control methods are preferred by rice farmers due to their efficacy, speed, ease of storage and affordable cost. The concern of chemical herbicides is on its effects on the environment. Less attention had been … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 5 Sep 2011 · 9,525 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAlkali Pretreatment and Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Cattails from Constructed WetlandsBo Zhang, Abolghasem Shahbazi, Lijun Wang et al.Problem statement: To date, production of liquid fuel, particularly ethanol, has only been economically feasible from food crops that are high in sugar and starch. However, the use of arable land for fuel rather than for food production and the use of a food source for fuel rather than as food have created issues in prices and availability of traditional … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,105 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGreen Methodologies to Test Hydrocarbon ReservoirsFrancesca Verga, Vera RoccaProblem statement: The definition and the economic viability of the best development strategy of a hydrocarbon reservoir mainly depend on the quantity and type of fluids and on the well productivity. Well testing, consisting in producing hydrocarbon to the surface while measuring the pressure variations induced in the reservoir, has been used for decades to determine the fluid nature and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,635 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiological Control of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Causal Agent of Sunflower Head and Stem Rot Disease, by Use of Soil borne Actinomycetes IsolatesF. Baniasadi, G. H. Shahidi Bonjar, A. Baghizadeh et al.Problem statement: High level of biosafety and non adverse effects on the environment of biocontrol strategies of pest management, are priorities of tomorrow's world agriculture. Actinomycetes are active biocontrol agents due to their antagonistic properties against wide range of plant pathogens particularly fungi. Fungal pathogens are liable for a big part of damages in agriculture economy. Approach: In the present … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 11,166 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStrength and Ductility of Randomly Distributed Palm Fibers Reinforced Silty-Sand SoilsS.M. Marandi, M.H. Bagheripour, R. Rahgozar, H. ZareThis paper investigates the resultant strength and ductility behavior when randomly distributed palm fibers are used to reinforce silty-sand soils. The composite soils were tested under laboratory conditions and examined for unconfined compression strength (UCS), California Bearing Ratio (CBR) and compaction test. The results indicated that; the maximum and residual strengths, orientation of surface failures, ductility and the stress-strain relationship … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,857 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordUsing Natural Enemies to Control Greenhouse PestsSamia Juma AL-NaabiBiological pest control, often known as biological pest control or biocontrol, is a sustainable and ecologically friendly method of pest management in agriculture. It entails using living organisms including predators, parasitoids and diseases to control pest populations and reduce agricultural loss. In this research study, the researcher used certain natural enemies (ladybirds, lacewings and trichogramma evanescens) to test their effects … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 4 Aug 2024 · 5,194 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEffect of Drying Method on Physical-Chemical Characteristics and Amino Acid Content of Tropical Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) Hay for Poultry FeedBambang Suwignyo, Anita Mustika, Kustantinah et al.Alfalfa is an important source of inexpensive forage for poultry that has high nutritional and digestive value. Alfalfa can be dried to produce hay, although the drying method can affect the quality of the hay as forage. In this study we examined how drying methods affect the physical quality and chemical composition of hay produced from alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.). … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 15 May 2020 · 8,392 accessesView PDFCite
