Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA BIOPHYSIOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF SETTLED LIVESTOCK AND POULTRY HOUSING DUSTSCarresse Gerald, Christi McPherson, Tha’Mes McDaniel et al.The levels and composition of agricultural dusts are influenced by animal species, production strategy, housing type and ventilation efficiency. Agricultural dust within animal houses is complex and consists of feed particles, microbes and their products, dander, fecal matter, gases, metals and other organic and inorganic components. Livestock and poultry production facilities may be categorized as confinement, semi-confinement or pasture-based. Characterization … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 16 Jan 2014 · 8,080 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Taxonomic Affinity of Indonesian Pummelo (Citrus maxima (Burm.) Merr.) Based on Morphological CharactersRatna Susandarini, Siti Subandiyah, Rugayah et al.Citrus maxima is a tropical fruit species with high morphological variability on fruit characters, including shape, size, thickness of peel, flesh color and taste. This variability has been used by breeders and common people to practically distinguish different pummelo cultivars. Despite such well known variation, so far there is no published study specifically addressed the extent of phenotypic variability and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 8,538 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariability and Genetic Structure in a Commercial Field of Tequila Plants, Agave tequilana Weber (Agavaceae)Martha Isabel Torres-Moran, Ana Paulina Velasco-Ramirez, Salvador Antonio Hurtado-de la Pena et al.Crops of the tequila plant (Agave tequilana) are produced mainly from offshoots of mother plants in established commercial fields. This propagation method is significant, as it is believed that it facilitates the spread of disease because of the crop’s low genetic variability and is also necessary because it is regulate the use of just that variety in tequila industry. Different … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 22 Feb 2013 · 8,093 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Alternative Graph Cut Algorithm for Morphological Edge DetectionP. RadhakrishnanProblem statement: Image analysis has some basic importance of edge detection. Characterize the object boundaries are helpful for object segmentation, registration and identification in a scene. There are many methods for edge detection, but it can be identified by two major methods, search-based and zero-crossing based. Approach: Proposed method tries to follow searching the edge points by applying graph cuts … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 29 May 2012 · 6,897 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeature Extraction and Classification of Blood Cells Using Artificial Neural NetworkMagudeeswaran Veluchamy, Karthikeyan Perumal, Thirumurugan PonuchamyProblem statement: One method of evaluating the clinical status is counting of cell types based on features that it contains. There is a need for a rapid, reproducible method, superior to human inspection and for the classification of cells. For solving these problems, quantitative digital-image analysis is applied and a novel method for classifications of affected blood cells from normal … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 18 Feb 2012 · 8,156 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeart Localization from Magnetic Resonance Images SequenceAhmed Farag, Mahmoud FakhreldinProblem statement: Heart localization is an important step in cardiac Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) analysis. This study aims to locate the moving heart region from MRI sequence of images. Approach: The idea is to use the motion detection techniques to isolate the heart region from the background image and then apply morphological operations to construct a moving heart region mask. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 30 Jan 2012 · 6,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMachine Translation of Noun Phrases from Arabic to English Using Transfer-Based ApproachOmar Shirko, Nazlia Omar, Haslina Arshad, Mohammed AlbaredProblem statement: Any Arabic to English Machine Translation (MT) system should be capable of dealing with word order which Arabic exhibits. This poses a significant challenge to MT due to the vast number of ways to express the same sentence in Arabic. The ordering features are very important and should be carefully applied to ensure the generation of sentence in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,413 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMorphological Characteristics of P. xylostella Granulovirus and Effects on Its Larval Host Diamondback Moth Plutella xylostella L. (Lepidoptera, Plutellidae)A. Dezianian, A. S. Sajap, W. H. Lau et al.Problem Statement: Diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella L. (Lepidoptera, Plutellidae) is the most destructive insect pest of cruciferous plants throughout the world which become resistant to wide range of chemical pesticides. PxGV is known as an effective factor on diamondback moth larval mortality. Approach: Some morphological characteristics, viral DNA isolation and Restriction Endonuclease (REN) analysis of P. xylostella granulovirus and its … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 10,157 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Morphological, Biochemical and Biological Studies of Halophilic Streptomyces sp. Isolated from Saltpan EnvironmentDeepika T. Lakshmipathy, Krishnan KannabiranProblem statement: Dermatophytes have developed resistance to the existing antifungal antibiotics. As a part of our continuous search we had isolated, identified and characterized actinomycetes from the halophilic environment having antagonistic activity against the dermatophytes namely Trichophyton, Microsporum and Epidermophyton. Approach: Actinomycetes were isolated from the soil sample collected from the Ennore saltpan region, Chennai, India and screened for antidermatophytic … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,735 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Fusarium Oxysporum F. Sp. Cubense of BananaS. K. Leong, Z. Latiffah, S. BaharuddinProblem statement: Morphological characterization of Fusarium species which emphasize on microscopic and cultural characteristics are not sufficient to characterize Fusarium Oxysporum F. sp. Cubense (FOC) from banana as these characteristics could easily influence by environmental factors. As an alternative molecular methods were used to characterize and to assess genetic variation of FOC from different banana cultivars. Knowledge on the genetic … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 9,267 accessesView PDFCite
