An experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of feeding a blend of grains naturally contaminated with Fusarium mycotoxins on growth and immunological parameters of starter pigs. A polymeric glucomannan mycotoxin adsorbent (GM polymer, Alltech Inc., Nicholasville, KY) was also tested for its efficacy in preventing Fusarium mycotoxicoses. A total of 150 starter pigs (initial weight of 9...

In order to study the effects of different irrigation regimes and plant density on yieldcomponent and protein concentration and crop water stress index (CWSI), under research fieldconditions a split plot arrangement was conducted in completely randomized block designduring two years. The first factor of variables was the effects of 4 irrigation levels 120% (I1),100% (I2), 80% (I3) and 60% (I4) ...

Yield response of Nigella (Nigella sativa L.), also known as Kalonji, was compared under the treatments Nlevels (30, 60, and 90 kg ha -1 ) and nutrients mixture “Micro Power” applications (single, double and triple) as foliar spray (FS) during vegetative growth 60, 80 and 100 days after sowing (DAS). Field experiment was conducted at Agronomy Research area, the University of Agriculture, Peshaw...

for study the effect of arbuscularmycorrhiza fungi a factorial experiment in a randomized complete block design with four replications was carried out in the summer of 1389 at the agricultural research station in city of zahak. the experiment included two factors; the first factor was inoculated glomus mossea mycorrhiza and no-inoculated one. the second factor was in four varieties of corn: s.c...

The distribution of labeled RNA in the optic nerve of the rabbit was studied by quantitative ultrastructural autoradiography after the intraocular injection of [(3)H]uridine. The highest density of silver grains related to [(3)H]RNA (27-40 grains/100 microm(2)) was found in glial cell perikarya; a slightly lower density was present in the glial nuclei (19-20 grains/100 microm(2)). Axons (4-5 gr...

Sewage sludge at the rate of 0, 40, 80, 120 and 240 t/ha showed that the number of filled grains per panicle, dry weight of grains and weight of 1000 grains of rice (Oryza sativa L.) were the significantly highest where 240 tons of sewage sludge per hectare was added. The contents of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Cu, Zn and Pb in rice grains increased significantly with increasing rate of sewage sludge ...

Copper and gold bonding wires were characterized and compared using electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD). During drawing, <111> and <100> fiber textures are the main components in the wires and shear components are mainly located under the surface. Grain average misorientation (GAM) and scalar orientation spread (SOS) of the <100> component in copper and gold bonding wires are lower than tho...

The aim of this paper was to evaluate the effects of toasted soybean grains on bioeconomic performance of pullets and layer hens in hot and humid environment. A total of 972 three-week-old Harco chicks were divided into 12 groups. At starter, pullet and laying phases, birds were fed four diets containing 0% (R0), 5% (R5), 10% (R10), and 15% (R15) of soybean grains. Results showed similar feed i...
