Effect of rice husbandry on mosquito breeding at Mwea Rice Irrigation Scheme with reference to biocontrol strategies.
A study was carried out at Mwea Rice Irrigation Scheme, Kenya, to assess the impact of rice husbandry on mosquito breeding and identify indigenous biocontrol agents with potential for controlling mosquito breeding in the scheme. The study established a close relationship between the schedule of the farming practices (particularly the flooding phase) and mosquito breeding. Two groups of agents, ...
متن کاملEffects of Soil- Transmitted Helminths and Schistosoma Species on Nutritional Status of Children in Mwea Irrigation Scheme, Kenya
Aim: Soiltransmitted helminths (STH) and schistosomiasis are a major public health problem in Kenya as well as in many other tropical countries. Intestinal parasite infections have been associated with malabsorption and nutrient loses that can lead to malnutrition. Malnutrition is considered one of the most prevalent conditions among children in rural population. The aim of this study was to in...
متن کاملArtemisia annua L
Shoot cultures of Artemisia annua L. were cultivated in three different micropropagation systems: an ultrasonic nutrient mist bioreactor (UNMB), a modified ultrasonic nutrient mist bioreactor (MUNMB) and solid culture in Magenta boxes. The shoots cultivated in the UNMB and MUNMB showed excellent growth. The dry weight increase (35 times) of shoot cultures in the MUNMB was higher than those (25 ...

متن کاملEmergence of terpene cyclization in Artemisia annua
The emergence of terpene cyclization was critical to the evolutionary expansion of chemical diversity yet remains unexplored. Here we report the first discovery of an epistatic network of residues that controls the onset of terpene cyclization in Artemisia annua. We begin with amorpha-4,11-diene synthase (ADS) and (E)-β-farnesene synthase (BFS), a pair of terpene synthases that produce cyclic o...
