Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStomatal Resistance to Low Leaf Water Potential at Different Growth Stages Affects Plant Biomass in Glycine max L.F.B. Adejare, C.E. UmebeseTwo cultivars of Glycine max (L) Merril. (TGX536-02D and TGX 923-2E designated cv.A and cv.B respectively), were subjected to water stress for a period of 7 days at the vegetative (T2), flowering/fruiting (T3) and seed development (T4) stages of growth, with a control (T1). Stress was considered moderate at T2 stage (ψw : -1.53 to -1.57 MPa) and severe at … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,353 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTRANSPIRATION INFLUENCES CADMIUM UPTAKE BY BABY LEAF SPINACH (SPINACIA OLERACEA L.)Carlo Chehine, Paul Holford, Oula Ghannoum et al.Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal whose concentration in soils is rising. This study investigated the effect of transpiration on Cd uptake by plants using soil conditions akin to those experienced by field crops. Two experiments were performed using baby leaf spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) grown in soil containing Chloride (Cl) at a typical concentration of 70 mg kg-1. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 23 Dec 2014 · 8,066 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLarvicidal Activity of Spondias purpurea (Sineguelas) Leaf and Hylocereus costaricensis (Dragon Fruit) Stem Extracts Against Aedes aegyptiAlfredo V. Corpuz, Nigell Mikhail A. Gallardo, Ace Danielle C. AveroThe study determined the larvicidal activity of the different concentrations of Spondias purpurea and Hylocereus costaricensis extracts by measuring percent mortality in Aedes aegypti larvae, a primary vector of dengue and other arboviral diseases. The hypothesis proposed that combining both extracts would yield greater larvicidal activity due to potential synergistic interactions. Ethanolic extraction was used to isolate a wide array … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 20 Nov 2025 · 2,427 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEarly Plant Disease Detection Using Graph Isomorphic Networks: Enhancing Crop Yield Through Leaf AnalysisD. Sumathi, Sreejyothsna Ankam, Pravin Prakash Adivarekar et al.The economy of Tanzania is mostly driven by agriculture. Disease is one of the reasons that contributes to the low production of staple foods like cassava and maize, alongside climate change. Loss of income and food security are the results. In order to detect the diseases early, preventative measures are required. A potential option for farmers could be the use … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 9 · 15 Oct 2025 · 3,107 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDifferential Response of Chitosan-Pretreated Rice Cultivars at the Seedling Stage to Drought Stress on Growth and Leaf MetabolitesWasinee Pongprayoon, Sataporn Deeying, Sakchai Hongthong et al.The escalating prevalence of drought stress presents a significant obstacle to global rice cultivation, particularly in arid regions affected by climate change-induced water scarcity. Despite extensive research on the efficacy of exogenously applied chitosan in enhancing drought tolerance across various crops, there remains a gap in understanding the differential responses of chitosan-treated rice seedlings among different cultivars and different chitosan … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 20 Dec 2024 · 5,252 accessesView PDFCite
