Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Deproteinization, Antioxidant Acticities and Inhibitory Effect on α-Amylase of Polysaccharides from Corn SilkYaping Li, Songbiao Shi, Xiudong Yang, Hongli ZhouAn approach of deproteinization of polysaccharides from corn silk (CSPs) was established to improve the purity and activities of CSPs by investigating Sevag method, trichloroacetic acid (TCA) method and HCl method. Deproteinization rate, polysaccharide retention rate, antioxidant activities and inhibition α-amylase effects were used as indicative mark to select suitable deproteinization method of CSPs. The crude CSPs was extracted by … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 23 May 2019 · 9,294 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractManagement of Source-Sink Balance for Maintaining Seed Vigor and Storability of MaizeSirinthorn Kaewchuai, Pitipong Thobunluepop, Sutkhet Nakasathien et al.Defoliation was the major factor which directly affected to maize seed yield and quality basis on source-sink relationship. Thus, the objectives were to study the effect of source-sink balance management on corn seed vigor and storability and to determine the effect of defoliation treatments on maize yield, yield components and produced seed germination traits. The experiment was arranged basis on … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 9 Jul 2021 · 6,952 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPROVING PHOSPHORUS NUTRITION OF CORNWalter B. Gordon, Larry Murphy, Pawel WiatrakPhosphorus (P) generally occurs in soils as the anions H2PO4- or HPO4-2 depending on soil pH. These anions readily react with soil cations such as calcium, magnesium, iron and aluminum to produce various phosphate compounds of very limited water solubility. Crop recovery of applied phosphate fertilizer can be quite low during the season of application. In addition, the large amounts … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 18 Mar 2014 · 7,446 accessesView PDF Cite
