Fermented water hyacinth by Aspergillus niger can be used as alternative ingredient replacing soymeal for feed in striped catfish. The experimental designed consist of five treatment substitution fermented and three repliacate: T0 (feed without FWH); T1 (25% P2 ( 50% P3 (75% P4 (100% FWH. ). A total 375 Striped catfish weight 4.21 ± 0.42 g were stocked with a density 25 fish m-3 fixed net cages...

In the present study, improvement of salt tolerance in basil (as a salt-sensitive plant) was investigated through silicon (Si) nutrition. Basil plants were subjected to silicon (0, 3 mM) and salinity (0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 mM NaCl) for a duration of one month. Salt stress significantly decreased the biomass of basil. Si supplement (3 mM) resulted in a considerable increase (averagely +135%) i...

Legumes are commonly grown in the tropics under reduced solar radiation due to dense cloud cover and shading from plantation or tall intercrops. This paper examines the growth and N2 fixation of several grain legumes common to the tropics on an Oxic Haplustoll in Hawaii. Plantings were made in April (warm season) and November (cool season) of soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.) ‘Kahala’; Cowpea (Vig...

Worm infections caused by Soil Transmitted Helminth (STH) in Indonesia cause diarrhea, malnutrition, and malaise. One of the epidemiology STH occurs through soil or fertilizer contaminated with vegetables. Therefore, it is necessary to examine identify vegetables, especially cabbage basil. The purpose this study was determine eggs vegetables from (Brassica oleracea) basil (Ocimum basilicum) tak...

in order to study the effect of irrigation and nitrogen fertilizer levels on yield of basil, an experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications in birjand (moud region) in 2010. main plot factor was two irrigation levels (7 and 14 days interval) and nitrogen fertilizer (as urea) was considered as sub plot factor in four levels (0, 50, 100...

Many herbs and spices have been shown to contain high levels of polyphenolic compounds with potent antioxidant properties. In the present study, we explore how nutrient availability, specifically nitrogen fertilization, affects the production of polyphenolic compounds in three cultivars (Dark Opal, Genovese, and Sweet Thai) of the culinary herb, basil ( Ocimum basilicum L.). Nitrogen fertilizat...

Cowpea is one of the most important grain legumes in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). It provides strong support to the livelihood of small-scale farmers through its contributions to their nutritional security, income generation and soil fertility enhancement. Worldwide about 6.5 million metric tons of cowpea are produced annually on about 14.5 million hectares. The low productivity of cowpea is attri...

In the West African sub-region, intercropping is a critical element in cowpea product profiles. This study aimed to investigate impact of with pearl millet on genetic correlations, heritability, and response selection. Thirty-five genotypes one variety were used create three cropping patterns: sole cowpea, 1:1 (one row cowpea), 2:4 (two rows four cowpea). Split-plot experiments conducted for tw...

The Field experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of cropping systems and nutrient management practices on yield, economics pearl millet in School Agricultural Science, Karunya Institute Technology Sciences, Coimbatore, India). laid out Factorial Randomized Block Design (FRBD) with two factors (Cropping system Nutrient management) three replications for consecutive seasons 2022-23. st...

Cowpea chlorotic mottle virus RNA has been prepared in comparatively high yield (at least 50%) by a modified phenol extraction method. The preparation, which has high biological activity, has been resolved into four components by zonal centrifugation on a 15-40% (w/v) sucrose density gradient. The components obtained have been tested for biological activity against whole plants and plant protop...
