Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Bioaccumulation and Detoxification Mechanism of Neodymium on the Shoot of Rice SeedlingsKailun Shi, Cheng Kun Liu, Keliang Lyu et al.Neodymium (Nd) potentially pollutes environment for its wide usage in agriculture and industry. In this study, the chemical forms of Nd and effect of Nd on rice shoots were studied after rice seedlings were exposed with 0, 1, 10, 100 and1000 μM Nd. The higher concentration of Nd inhibited shoot growth, but the lower concentration of Nd induced shoot growth. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 11 Apr 2021 · 6,291 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleISOLATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF RHIZOBIA AND PLANT GROWTH-PROMOTING RHIZOBACTERIA AND THEIR EFFECTS ON GROWTH OF RICE SEEDLINGSK. Z. Tan, O. Radziah, M. S. Halimi et al.Biofertilizer is a relatively safer, environmentally friendly and cost-effective approach as an alternative to reduce chemical fertilizer usage. The selection of bacterial strains with multiple beneficial characteristics are important to maximize the effectiveness on the host plant. Due to aforementioned interest, several Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacterial (PGPR) and rhizobial strains were isolated from rice and legume roots, respectively, at four locations … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 15 Apr 2014 · 10,904 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDevelopment of Microbial Inoculants and the Impact of Soil Application on Rice Seedlings GrowthHayyan Ismaeil Al-Taweil, Mohammad Bin Osman, Aidil Abdul Hamid, Wan Mohtar Wan YussofProblem statement: The present study was undertaken to assess the Empty Fruit Bunches (EFB) as carrier of Biofertilizer and microbial inoculants interaction. A study in Malaysia had shown a strain of Trichoderma viride and Bacillus megaterium were isolated from the soil. Questions were raised whether the tow inoculants compatible to be mixed in same carrier? It is important to develop … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,717 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferential 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 · 5,246 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Seaweed Extracts on Rice Growth and Tolerance to Salinity, Drought and Blast (Magnaporthe oryzae)Mir Sayeada Alam, Jannatun Nayeema, S. M. Rafiquzzaman, Motaher HossainRice, a primary staple, confronts a multitude of biotic and abiotic stresses. Drought and salinity, exacerbated by climate change and blast disease caused by Magnaporthe oryzae, significantly contribute to yield losses. To tackle the problems, two types of seaweeds-one known as Hypnea musciformis and another unknown-were collected from Saint Martin, Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh and then examined for the potential of … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 31 May 2024 · 6,506 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMorpho-Physiological and Genetic Responses of Bali Local Rice Cultivars to Drought Stress at Seedling StageMade Pharmawati, Luh Putu WrasiatiRice is the main food source in many countries in the world. One of the major limiting factors for rice growth and productivity is drought stress. In Bali there are several local rice cultivars, two of them are ‘Mansur' and ‘Putih Cempaka'. The cultivar ‘IR 64' is one rice cultivar released by IRRI. The responses of those rice cultivars to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 29 Mar 2018 · 7,644 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Some Heavy Metals in Some Morpho-Physiological Parameters in Maize SeedlingsSali Aliu, Bekim Gashi, Imer Rusinovci et al.Nowadays the heavy-metal pollution of the soil is causing ever greater problems, exacerbated by the fact that the heavy metals accumulated in plants may, either directly or indirectly, find their way into animals and human beings. Maize is one of the world’s most important crops, ranking third after wheat and rice, so the changes induced by one of the most … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 8,430 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of a Dual-Purpose Chemical Applicator for Paddy FieldsMohammed Shu’aibu Abubakar, Desa Ahmad, Othman Jamarei et al.Problem statement: One of the major problems of rice production is the shortage of labor resulting from migration from rural to urban areas, making it very difficult to meet peak demands for paddy production. In most developing countries of Southeast Asia, agricultural mechanization of paddy field operation is mostly carried out using conventional machines. For example in rice production powerintensive … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Apr 2011 · 7,542 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of the Upland Weed Control Potentiality of Green Tea Waste-Rice Bran Compost and Its Effect on Spinach GrowthM.A.I. Khan, K. Ueno, S. Horimoto et al.This study evaluated the upland weed control potentiality, germination inhibition ability and growth suppression efficiency of the five combinations of green tea waste - rice bran compost (GRC). GRC was prepared by mixing green tea waste and rice bran at five ratios, and allowed to decompose for 5 mo. Application of GRC suppressed weed growth up to 93.4% in number … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,203 accessesView PDF Cite
