Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Ability of Bipolaris Sorokiniana Isolated from Spring Barley Leaves to Survive in Plant Residuals of Different CropsYerlan Dutbayev, Aidana Kharipzhanova, Nadira Sultanova et al.Spring barley is an important high-value crop globally. However, it is highly susceptible to soil-borne diseases in Kazakhstan and the world. Bipolaris sorokiniana (Sacc.) Shoemaker is the most important soil-borne pathogen that causes root rot and spot blotch diseases in cereal crops. This study aimed to evaluate the ability of B. sorokiniana isolated from spring barley leaves to survive in … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2022 · 6,133 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsProduction of Xylitol from Agricultural Waste by Enzymatic MethodsMarie K. Walsh, Hussein Fadhil Khliaf, Khalida A. ShakirEnzyme catalyzed production of xylose from autoclaved and non-autoclaved wheat straw was conducted followed by bioconversion of xylose to xylitol using a Crude preparation of Xylose Reductase (CXR) from Candida guillermondii. Ground wheat straw (autoclaved and non autoclaved) was treated at 40 and 50°C for up to 9 h at pH 4.5 with various concentrations of xylanase (12.4 to 37.2 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2018 · 9,655 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDevelopment and Evaluation of a Low-Density Biomass Feeding System for Fluidized Bed GasifiersA. E. Ghaly, A. Ergudenler, S. Alsuhaibani, V. V. RamakrishnanFor efficient operation of a biomass gasifier, the biomass material must be fed continuously to the system. A feeding system for chopped straw and rice husk was designed, constructed and evaluated. It consisted of: a frame, a hopper, an auger, two agitators, a drive system and a power unit. Initial testing showed that wheat straw and rice husk, being highly … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 7 Nov 2013 · 8,039 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAvailability and Physical Properties of Residues from Major Agricultural Crops for Energy Conversion Through Thermochemical ProcessesYaning Zhang, A. E. Ghaly, Bingxi LiPlant residues from the major agricultural crops (wheat, rice, corn, soybean, sugarcane, coffee and cotton) are abundantly available renewable resources that can be used to supply energy through thermochemical conversion processes. The available amounts of plant residues from these crops and their physical properties (moisture content, particle size, bulk density and porosity) were determined. The annual residues from the wheat, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2012 · 9,663 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Dietary Supplementation with Pumpkin oil (Cucurbita pepo) on Performance and Blood Fat of Broiler Chickens during Finisher PeriodHosna Hajati, Ahmad Hasanabadi, Park W. WaldroupProblem statement: Using most of antibiotic growth promoters as feed additives has been banned by the European Union due to cross-resistance against pathogens and residues in tissues; and scientists search for alternatives to antibiotics, two days. In this view, medicinal plants and essential oils extracted are becoming more important due to their antimicrobial and stimulating effects on animal digestive systems. … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2011 · 9,724 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Yellow Mealworm as a Novel Source of ProteinA. E. Ghaly, F. N. AlkoaikProblem statement: Yellow mealworms of different sizes (4.8-182.7 mg) were grown in a medium of wheat flour and brewer’s yeast (95:5 by weight) to evaluate their potential as a protein source. Approach: There was an initial adjustment period (3-9 days) observed during which the younger larvae (4.8-61.1 mg) grew slowly while the older ones (80.3-182.7 mg) lost weight. After this … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 20,859 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Comparative Assessment of Hydroponically Grown Cereal Crops for the Purification of Aquaculture Wastewater and the Production of Fish FeedA. M. Snow, A. E. Ghaly, A. SnowHydroponically grown wheat, barley and oats were examined for their ability to remove nutrients from aquaculture wastewater. Wheat, barley and oats seeds were germinated in water in a hydroponics system. The seedlings then received wastewater from an aquaculture system stocked with Arctic charr. During the experiment, the crops grew rapidly and fairly uniformly and showed no signs of mineral deficiency … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 9,167 accessesView PDF Cite
