Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechanical 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 accessIn the abstractClimate-Driven Productivity Responses and Implications for Genetic Adaptation and Breeding of Boreal Trees in KazakhstanZhadyra Baigazakova, Kuralay Mazarzhanova, Asset Satayev et al.Kazakhstan’s boreal and forest-steppe forests form the southern ecotonal edge of the West Siberian taiga, where relatively small changes in heat and moisture can trigger disproportionate impacts on tree growth, mortality, and regeneration. Although forests cover only ~4% of Kazakhstan, they provide critical ecosystem services: stabilizing hydrological regimes, buffering microclimates, protecting agricultural lands from wind and water erosion, and supporting … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 10 Aug 2026 · 709 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdaptation and Use of the Gangaria Seed Drill for the Improvement of Peanut (Arachis hypogaea) Cultivation in Niger: Case of the Maradi and Zinder RegionsAbdoulahi Mamane, Arifa Warouma et al.In Niger, peanut cultivation plays a significant role in food security and improving the incomes of rural households, particularly in the Maradi and Zinder regions. However, this crop remains hampered by low mechanization, the use of traditional tools, and inefficient fertilization, resulting in consistently low yields of around 600 to 800 kg/ha. Faced with these constraints, this study aims to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2026 · 2,832 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview on Different Algorithms and Techniques Used in Classification of Gender in SilkwormJyoti Sharma, Pradeep ChoukseySilkworm seed is the key factor for the success of sericulture industry. Silk seed production process at grain ages centre mainly involve procuration of seed cocoon, cutting of seed cocoon for pupae, separation of male and female pupae, emergence of moth, coupling of silk moth and further egg laying by female moth. Separation of male and female is very much … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 6 · 17 Jun 2025 · 4,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeta-Analysis of Performance and Intestinal Histomorphology of Broilers Fed Diets Containing Fermented Tropical Seed MealsIfeanyichukwu Princewill Ogbuewu, Nnanyere Okwunna Aladi et al.There are variable results on the effect of dietary Fermented Tropical Seed Meal (FTSM) intervention on the growth and intestinal histomorphological indices of broilers. This meta-analysis aimed to investigate the effects of FTSM intervention on the growth performance and intestinal histomorphology of broilers. A database of 31 peer-reviewed studies that assessed the effect of dietary FTSM intervention on growth performance … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 29 Nov 2024 · 4,768 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Biological Preparations on Germination, Growth, and Development of Alfalfa of the Kokshe Variety in the Hill and Plain Zone of the Akmola Region of KazakhstanArman Kalin, Ualikhan Sagalbekov, Nina Kazydub et al.An important role in increasing the production of high-protein feed in the steppe zone belongs to leguminous grasses, such as alfalfa, sainfoin, and melilot. The value of perennial grasses, including alfalfa, is not only in providing high-protein feeds and their productivity in the sharply continental climate of Northern Kazakhstan, but it also has great importance in increasing soil fertility.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResponse of Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.) Varieties to Striga gesnerioides (Willd.) Vatke InfestationAlhassan Bawa, Ismael Yakubu, Yussif SeiduProduction of cowpea within the sub-Saharan Africa, and Ghana in particular, is bedeviled with many challenges, including Striga infestation, resulting in abysmal low grain and biomass yields. Thus, the study was conducted to evaluate Striga's impact on cowpea growth and yield. During the 2023 agricultural season, the study was carried out in Northern Ghana. A control (non-infested) experiment and a … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 18 Sep 2025 · 4,867 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBenchmarking Lightweight Deep Learning Models for Field Based Sorghum Leaf Disease DetectionPrince Daughin Ngqabutho NcubeSorghum is a climate-resilient cereal crop central to food and livelihood security across Southern Africa, yet its productivity is frequently reduced by foliar diseases that smallholder farmers struggle to diagnose reliably in the field. While deep learning has demonstrated strong potential for automated plant disease identification, sorghum remains underrepresented in the literature, and no prior study has provided a comprehensive, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 10 · 29 Sep 2026 · 535 accessesView PDFCite
