Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSELF-INCOMPATIBILITY AND EFFECT OF RECIPROCAL CROSS AND OPEN POLLINATION ON FRUIT SET AND FRUIT CHARACTERISTIC IN JORDANIAN ALMOND LANDRACESS. J. OwaisLimited studies were carried out to identify self- and cross-compatibility relationships among Jordanian almond landraces. Therefore, this study aimed at studying the level of self-incompatibility and the effect of cross and open pollination on fruit set and shell, nut and kernel related traits in almond. To achieve this objective, field experiments were carried out during 2012 and 2013 cropping season … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 30 Aug 2014 · 7,382 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Exposure of Pesticides to Honeybees: A Global Threat to Food SecurityHalima Sadia, Pratik Raj Karki, Mansura Afroz et al.The pivotal role of honeybees as global pollinators underscores their significance in ecological and agricultural systems. However, the beekeeping industry faces a significant challenge due to the improper utilization of pesticides, resulting in adverse effects on honeybee populations. This comprehensive review endeavors to investigate the toxicity of pesticides to honeybees, examining the various routes of exposure. Furthermore, it aims to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 2 · 20 Jan 2024 · 6,058 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsChanges in Erucic Acid Concentration of Rape Seeds in Advanced GenerationsSelim Aytaç, Şahin Gizlenci, Mustafa Acar, Ali ÜstünThis study was carried out to determine the extend of changes in erucic acid concentration of rapeseeds which were grown in Carsamba and Bafra Plains of Central Blacksea Region. In addition to field experiments, the same experiment was conducted in the greenhouse to avoid polen transfer from other sources. The first material used was 00 type rapeseed cultivars. In order … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,626 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Fog Resource Provisioning and Resource Allocation using MKFCM and FPANagarjun E, Dharamendra Chouhan, Dilip Kumar SMThe expansion of Internet of Things (IoT) deployments has motivated the Fog Computing (FC) paradigm, which brings mobile-edge and cloud resources together under a single model. Allocating and provisioning application tasks across such environments poses challenges due to constrained resource capabilities, heterogeneity, mobility, network hierarchy, and unpredictability. This paper addresses the need for additional computing devices that prioritize delay-sensitive applications … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 10 · 6 Oct 2026 · 462 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFICACY OF ESSENTIAL OILS FROM MEDICINAL PLANTS IN CONTROL OF THE HAIRY ROSE BEETLE, TROPINOTA SQUALIDA (SCOPOLI) AND THEIR COMPARATIVE TOXICITY TO THE HONEY BEE, APIS MELLIFERA L.Mohammad S. Al-AlawiThe insecticidal activity of essential plants oils against an important insect pest of fruit trees, the hairy rose beetle, was evaluated in topical and feeding applications in the laboratory. Essential oils that caused more than 50% mortality were further tested against the hairy rose beetle and the honey bee using different concentrations and their relative toxicities were evaluated. Results showed … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 18 Mar 2014 · 7,772 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrediction of Days After Anthesis of Developing Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) Fruit from Blossom-End Changes in ColorTiznado-Hernández Martín Ernesto, Delia Moreno-Velázquez, Angel Javier Ojeda-Contreras, Andrés Ochoa-MezaThe development of mathematical models to predict the physiological status of a developing fruit can be a useful tool to reduce the variation in fruit response to postharvest treatments. The objective of this study was to develop a mathematical model to predict Days After Anthesis (DAA) in tomato fruit from changes in the blossom end color. Around 160 tomato flowers … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 8,105 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract(+)-Syringaresinol Lignan from New Species Magnolia ThailandicaWisit Monthong, Siripit Pitchuanchom, Narong Nuntasaen, Wilart PompimonProblem statement: Magnolia, an ancient genus, is a large genus of about 210 flowering plant species in the subfamily Magnolioideae of the family Magnoliaceae. Having evolved before bees appeared, the flowers developed to encourage pollination by beetles. Members of this family are rich in a wide variety of biological active compounds including lignans. Magnolia thailandica, a new species for Thailand … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 11 Oct 2011 · 9,283 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Variation and Relationship Between Turkish Flint Maize Landraces by RAPD MarkersA. OkumusA comparative characterization of 17 flint maize landraces (Zea mays L.) was carried out using RAPD markers. Fourteen primers giving reliable and consistent polymorphic bands amplified 125 fragments (89%) with an average of 8.90 fragment per primer. Genetic variation in 17 maize landraces was characterized based on dissimilarity matrix by UPGMA dendogram which has no association into distinct grouping with … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,977 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInheritance of Leaf Characters in Sweet Potato (Ipomoea batatas [L.] Lam.)Alfredo Morales, Dania RodríguezThis study aimed to establish foundational knowledge regarding the inheritance patterns of two foliar traits (leaf morphology and midrib pigmentation) in Ipomoea batatas. To overcome the challenges associated with discretely classifying color and shape frequencies, five morphometric descriptors were employed. Two of these parameters addressed leaf shape (Circularity and Aspect Ratio), while three characterized the color of the central vein … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 3 Jul 2026 · 1,409 accessesView PDFCite
