Monoculture farming is pervasive in industrial oil palm agriculture, including those RSPO plantations certified as sustainably managed. This farming practice does not promote the maintenance of farmland biodiversity. However, little scientific attention has been given to polyculture farming in oil palm production landscapes. Polyculture farming is likely to increase the floristic diversity and ...

use of the growth indices is a method to assessment of intercropping efficiency. in order to evaluation growth indices of soybean, sweet basil and borage in intercropping with different ratios, an experiment base on randomized complete block design was conducted with 9 treatments and 3 replications at north khorasan in 2011. treatments were consisted of the plants pure culture, replacement seri...

Integrated Multi Trophic Level (IMTA) is identified as the integrating culture of multi-species in one area. The effectiveness space and feed main aspect from this point. disease health shrimp management on production including immune boosters plays a critical aspect. aim research to determine analyze Litopenaeus vannamei system different systems, namely polyculture monoculture. Alginate was ap...

Graphical Abstract Long-term chili monoculture alters environmental variables affecting the dominant microbial community in rhizosphere soil.

In this study, the early development of monocultures and mixtures of Cedrela odorata, Cordia alliodora, and Hyeronima alchorneoides was measured to determine what interspecific differences in structural characteristics lead to good ecological Ž . combining ability in fast-growing tropical tree species. Plantations were established at high density 2887 treesrha on fertile alluvial soil in the hu...

cancer cell-stromal cell interaction plays a crucial role in the growth and invasion of tumor cells of various organs. it has been recently suggested that adipocytes and preadipocytes, two specific types of stromal cells, affect the biological behavior of variety of breast cancer cell lines. in spite of few investigations, there is a controversy in the literatures about the effects of adipocyte...
