Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImpact of Agritechnologies on the Biomass and Nutritional Parameters of Crops: A Study of Corn, Soybean, and Pea in Southeast KazakhstanGulvira Yessenbayeva, Aruzhan Ilyas, Serik Kenenbayev et al.The study investigates the impact of various agritechnologies on the biomass and nutritional parameters of corn, soybean, and winter pea cultivated in Southeast Kazakhstan. This research is particularly relevant given the significant challenges facing agriculture in Kazakhstan, including soil degradation, reduced arable land, and the need for sustainable farming practices. Organic and traditional farming methods were evaluated for their effectiveness … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 16 Feb 2026 · 1,600 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUtilization of Soft Wood Wastes as a Feed Stock to Produce Fuel EthanolAdnan M. Khalil, Ali F. Al-Shawabkeh, Ayman S. Mazahreh et al.Problem statement: The current research investigated the utilization of soft wood waste as a feedstock to produce a value-added product-fuel ethanol. Approach: The main issue in converting soft wood waste to fuel ethanol is the accessibility of the polysaccharides for breaking down into monosaccharides. This study focused on the use of steam as the pretreatment method. The governing factors for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,628 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study of the Effects of Soil Salinity on the Growth and Development of Maize (Zea Mays L.) by using Sentinel-2 ImageryShakhislam Uzakbaevich Laiskhanov, Zhassulan Maratuly Smanov, Kulyash Duisenbaevna Kaimuldinova et al.Salinization of soil cover and the constant increase in their area have become one of the most pressing problems year after year for irrigated agriculture regions. The degradation processes caused by the salinity of soils negatively affect the growth and development of food crops. Therefore, this study focused on the effects of soil salinity in the midstream of the Syrdarya … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 15 Aug 2022 · 6,257 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransformation of Lignocellulosic Biomass into Sustainable Biofuels: Major Challenges and Bioprocessing TechnologiesTahira Naz, Yusuf Nazir, Abu Bakr Ahmad Fazili et al.Commercial-scale production of biofuels has recently been intensified due to its cost-effectiveness, sustainability, market stability, alternative fuel energy composition and greener output, etc. Lignocellulosic biomass attracted the attention of researchers as a renewable feedstock for fermentative conversion into biofuels because of its high productivity, low agricultural input requirements, being environmentally friendly and no competition with the food crops. The field … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 1 Aug 2020 · 7,710 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFractionation of Organic Carbon in Arial Beel Wetland Soils of BangladeshMonera Akter Eva, Mahmudul Islam Piash, Md. Faruque Hossain, Zakia ParveenA study was conducted to determine the organic carbon fractions in the vertical sections of a benchmark wetland soil of Bangladesh (Arial Beel) and their dynamics that directly affect the biogeochemistry of soil, water and plant biomass ecosystem. Two distinctive soil series viz. Sara and Arial are characterized such as pH, moisture content, textural class, CEC, organic carbon (SOC), bulk … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 4 May 2018 · 9,134 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNodulation and Biomass Yield Response of Cowpea to Row Spacing and Phosphorus Fertilizer Application in the Guinea Savanna Agro-Ecological Zone of GhanaAlhassan Bawa, Lukman YussifPhosphorus fertilizer application and planting distance play a major role in the production of shoot, root and nodule dry biomass of cowpea. However, phosphorus is a major limiting nutrient in soils in Ghana. Selection of cowpea varieties that produce good biomass yield under low soil phosphorus or those with high phosphorus response efficiency can be a low input approach in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 23 Jan 2018 · 8,231 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWeissella cibaria Fungistatic Activity against Fusarium spp. affecting Yellow PitahayaLeidy Johana Valencia-Hernández, Karina López-López, Liliana Serna-CockFungistatic activity of a Lactic-Acid Bacteria (LAB) was assessed in vitro while isolated from its rumen fluid, against Fusarium oxysporum and Fusarium fujikoroi, basal-rot related species in yellow pitahaya. Fed batch was used to reproduce said LAB. Fungistatic activity kinetic tests were performed on the ferment (S1) and on two of the fractions obtained through centrifugation, supernatant (S2) and biomass … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 12 · 10 Dec 2016 · 7,978 accessesView PDFCite

Since the seventies, in fact, global warming and environmental issues have had an increasing importance in international debate, attracting the attention of several scientific studies (Landi and Benelli, 2016). Many of these studies denoted that over … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2016 · 8,092 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Bioethanol Wastes as an Alternative Phosphorus Source for Snap Bean and Radish ProductionXiaolin Liao, Ben Hogue, Shouliang Zhu et al.Biorefinery waste has potential to provide alternative sources of phosphorus (P) for plant industry if biomass has been pretreated by phosphoric acids during its production process. In this study, we investigated the potential of the fermentation waste from a bioethanol process as a P fertilizer. Three treatments were set up for growing crops of snap bean (var., Bronco) and radish … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 4 Feb 2016 · 8,144 accessesView PDFCite
