Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleSurvival and Changes in Germination Response of Rumex obtusifolius Polygonum longisetum and Oenothera biennis during Burial at Three Soil DepthsShiro TsuyuzakiTo investigate patterns in seed germination and survival at three different soil depths over a long time span, seeds of Rumex obtusifolius, Polygonum longisetum and Oenothera biennis were examined as a function of season (spring, autumn) and soil depth (3, 10, 30 cm). Buried seeds were exhumed after 3 years and subjected to two different temperature treatments. These were gradually … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,194 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Plowing Depth of Tillage and Forward Speed on the Performance of a Medium Size Chisel Plow Operating in a Sandy SoilS.A. Al-Suhaibani, A.E. GhalyProblem statement: Tillage is a process of creating a desirable soil condition for seed germination and growth. The tillage of soil is considered to be one of the biggest farm operations as the tillage operation requires the most energy on the farm. Chisel plow is widely used by farmers as a primary tillage tool. Performance data for chisel plow operation … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 10,111 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDetermination of Draft Force for a 3-bottom Disc Plough Under Sandy Loam Soil ConditionsPaul Okoko, Emmanuel A. AjavThis study was performed to determine the draft force for a 3-bottom disc plough under sandy loam soil conditions. The experiments were conducted using five different tractor speeds (3.6, 5.4, 7.2, 9.0 and 10.8 kilometer per hour(km)) and three tillage depths (10, 20 and 30 centimeter(cm)) with a view to determine the actual implement speed at the different tillage depths. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 15 May 2020 · 7,384 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExperimental Investigation of Thermo-Physical Properties of Soil Using Solarisation TechnologyAhmed Abed Gatea Al-Shammary, Abbas Kouzani, Akif Kaynak et al.Soil Thermo-Physical Properties (TPP) depend on heat transfer in the soil. This paper presents a study on different soil solarisation technologies influenced by soil TPP. This study evaluates three factors: The tillage depth for soil at three levels (15, 25 and 45 cm), the number of plastic film at three levels (single, double and without plastic film) and three cases … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 7 · 17 Jul 2017 · 7,957 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPotential Air and Groundwater Pollution from Continuous High Land Application of Cheese WheyA.E. Ghaly, D.G. Rushton, N.S. MahmoudExperiments were performed, using eighteen 280 cm deep soil columns with 20 cm inside diameter, to determine the relative amounts of nitrogenous compounds leached and volatilized from soils receiving high application rates of cheese whey during two seasons. Three soils (loamy sand, sandy loam and sandy clay loam) and two cheese whey application rates (560 and 840 kg-N ha-1), that … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,277 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReclamation of Irrigated Lands and Improvement of the Groundwater Regime Under Vertical Drainage OperationBalzhan Amanbayeva, Raushan Dzhaisambekova, Alexander Basmanov et al.The aim of the study was to identify patterns of seasonal groundwater-level fluctuations and assess the effectiveness of vertical drainage in regulating the reclamation regime of saline lands in Kazakhstan. The methods included monitoring-well observations, calculation of seasonal amplitudes, Student’s t-test, the Mann-Whitney U test, and Pearson correlation analysis. Before the growing season, groundwater occurred at a depth of 1.5-1.7 … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 23 Sep 2026 · 608 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Organic Ameliorants on Grey Soil FertilityAsanbay Tagaev, Amandyk Kostakov, Sabir MakhmadzhanovThe study aimed to assess the effectiveness of organic-biological ameliorants for restoring the fertility of light grey soils in the Turkestan region of Kazakhstan, which are characterised by low humus content (0.8-1.1%) and high alkalinity (pH 7.9-8.3). The field experiment was conducted on an area of 2304 m2 using four treatment options: control (variant 1 only mineral fertilisers) and three … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 3 · 15 Sep 2026 · 693 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydrophysical Properties of Soils as Indicators of the Hydrological Role of Rudny Altai ForestsAndrey Kalachev, Tamara Burenina, Stanislav Rogovsky et al.The hydrophysical properties of soils and parent rock are key factors shaping forest hydrological functioning, as they influence multiple runoff components. This study assessed the effects of forest stand composition on soil moisture and water permeability between 2021 and 2023 in the middle mountain-taiga zone of the Rudny Altai, within the Zhuravlikha River basin, a tributary of the Irtysh River. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 24 Mar 2026 · 1,316 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Diversity as a Biological Control Mechanism for Fruit Tree Diseases: A Comparative ApproachZhichao TangThe traditional methods of fruit tree pest control have long relied on chemical pesticides. This not only leads to increased resistance of pests and diseases but also adversely affects the ecological environment and fruit safety. Although biological control has gradually received attention, the current research on how to systematically use microbial diversity to achieve efficient control and prevention is still … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 8 Apr 2026 · 1,603 accessesView PDFCite
