Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMechanical Scarification and Sucrose Priming Overcome Physical Dormancy in Caesalpinia spinosa (Tara) Seeds from the Peruvian HighlandsWilfredo Ruiz-Camacho, Ítalo Maldonado Ramirez, Juan Eduardo Suarez Rivadeneira et al.Caesalpinia spinose (tara) is a leguminous tree native to the Peruvian Andes-Amazon region, valued for soil restoration and high tannin content. However, its large-scale propagation is constrained by physical seed dormancy caused by a hard and impermeable seed coat. This study evaluated six pre-germination treatments to break dormancy and enhance early seedling development under local agroclimatic conditions in Magdalena District, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 12 Aug 2026 · 1,204 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Differently Processed Taro Mixed With Other Ingredients on Digestibility and Nitrogen Balance in Crossbred PigsPhiny Chiv, Saravuth Tum, Putheasath Sin et al.Leaves from forage crops and vegetables such as water spinach, sweetpotato, cassava, and especially taro, can be incorporated into pig diets aspartially replace commonly used protein sources including fish meal or/and soybeanmeal. However, their use remains limited among farmers and livestock producers.This study aimed to compare feed intake, determine apparent digestibilitycoefficients, and analyze nitrogen retention in pigs fed various forms … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 7 Jul 2026 · 1,355 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Metal Ions on The Functional Properties of Taro Protein IsolateYouru Huang, Yingtong Li, Zheng Zhang, Maoqiang ZhengThis study investigated the effects of metal ion species and concentrations on the functional properties of taro protein isolate (TPI), extracted from Colocasia esculenta corms. The results demonstrated that metal salt solutions could modulate the unfolding and aggregation of TPI, thereby altering its protein-protein and protein-water interactions and significantly affecting the functional properties. When monovalent cation concentration [M+] was less … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 6 Jan 2026 · 2,012 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleReindeer Infestation with Cysticercus Tarandi in the Tundra of Yamalia, RussiaAnna Nikolaevna Siben, Andrey Alexandrovich NikonovImproving the efficiency of reindeer husbandry can only be achieved by preserving the health of animals, which requires the organization of measures to protect animals from infectious and invasive pathogens. C. tarandi is the larval stage of Taenia krabbei and causes damage to muscle fibers and a decrease in the commercial qualities, energy and nutritional value of reindeer meat. The … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 2 Dec 2022 · 5,961 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRadar Cross Section Modelling and Analysis of Static and Dynamic Targets using MATLABPunam Pande, Sreemathy R, Mousami TurukRadar Cross Section (RCS) is an important characteristic of the electromagnetic system for target detection. This study presents detailed modelling of Radar Cross Section (RCS) of static simple objects like sphere, cylinder, triangular plate, circular flat plate, truncated cone and complex objects using MATLAB Radar toolbox.

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Distributed Coverage and Target Tracking Algorithm for Wireless Sensor NetworksM. Senthamilselvi, N. DevarajanProblem statement: Due to communication, processing and energy constraints, tracking in sensor networks creates different challenges. Since existing algorithms utilized the information from all the sensors for tracking, it results in higher expenditure of energy and reduced lifetime for the network. Approach: We propose to develop a distributed coverage and target tracking algorithm for wireless sensor networks. Tracking issue is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 6 Jan 2012 · 6,698 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Genetic Algorithm for Scheduling n Jobs on a Single Machine with a Stochastic Controllable Processing, Tooling Cost and Earliness-Tardiness PenaltiesMohamed Ali Abdel-Fattah MansourProblem statement: In this research, we addressed the problem of minimizing the earliness-tardiness penalties and manufacturing costs of a single machine with a stochastic controllable processing and tooling cost. Approach: We developed a mathematical non-linear integer programming model and its linearised version to find the optimal solution. We introduced a new genome representation in single machine scheduling literature that evolved … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,587 accessesView PDFCite
