Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Dynamics of Chemical Properties and Soil Microbial Types at Agroforestry System in Supporting Environmental Friendly AgricultureIda Suryani, Sulfiana, Maimuna Nontji, MarlianaAgroforestry is described as the land-use system producing and conserving various agricultural, livestock, and fishery commodities combined with forestry commodities. The research aims to determine the chemical properties of the soil and types of microbial (especially the presence of soil bacterial) in the cocoa farming system. The two types of analysis were conducted: (1) Soil chemical properties included pH, C-organic, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 16 Aug 2022 · 5,409 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBotany, Ecology and Diversity of Acacia Koa in the Hawaiian IslandsKazue Lee Ishihara, Maia Corpuz, Clifford Wayne Morden, Dulal BorthakurAcacia koa (koa) is a valuable leguminous timber-wood tree endemic to the Hawaiian Islands. Over the past century, conversion of some native forests for agriculture and ranching, uncontrolled spread of invasive plant species and outbreak of a deadly fungal wilt disease severely reduced A. koa forests. However, recently there has been a growing interest in re-establishing A. koa as an … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 21 Jun 2017 · 9,008 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAllelopathic Potentialities of Gliricidia sepium and Acacia auriculiformis on the Germination and Seedling Vigour of Maize (Zea mays L.)M. B. OyunDecline in crop yield in cropping and agroforestry system in recent years has been attributed to allelopathic effects. Plants may favourably or adversely affect other plants through allelochemicals, which may be released directly or indirectly from live or dead plants. The objective of this study was to examine and quantify the nature of interference of leaf leachates of Gliricidia sepium … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 9,790 accessesView PDF Cite
