Organic Farming by Using Different Desert Soiles Could it be an Alternative to Fertilizers?
It is shown that Saharan soil has the potential of producing bioavailable iron when illuminated with visible light and also it contains some essential macronutrient and micronutrient elements. In this study, these properties of the desert soil were tested on the certified wheat cultivars (Triticum aestivum L. var. gonen 98) using Hewitt nutrient solution, illuminated and non-illuminated soil so...
متن کاملPreventing desert locust plagues: optimizing management interventions
Solitarious desert locusts, Schistocerca gregaria (Forskål) (Orthoptera: Acrididae), inhabit the central, arid, and semi-arid parts of the species’ invasion area in Africa, the Middle East, and South-West Asia. Their annual migration circuit takes them downwind to breed sequentially where winter, spring, and summer rains fall. In many years, sparse and erratic seasonal rains support phase chang...
متن کاملCould aerosol emissions be used for regional heat wave mitigation?
Geoengineering applications by injection of sulfate aerosols into the stratosphere are under consideration as a measure of last resort to counter global warming. Here adaptation to a potential regional-scale application to offset the impacts of heat waves is critically examined. The ef5 fect of regional-scale sulfate aerosol emission over California in each of two days of the July 2006 heat wav...
متن کاملAssaying Visual Memory in the Desert Locust
The involvement of associative learning cues has been demonstrated in several stages of feeding and food selection. Short neuropeptide F (sNPF), an insect neuropeptide whose effects on feeding behavior have previously been well established, may be one of the factors bridging feeding and learning behavior. Recently, it was shown in Drosophila melanogaster that the targeted reduction of Drome-sNP...
متن کاملCould phytoproducts be effective in the treatment of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis?
Background: Despite the fact that liver steatosis is a very frequent condition mainly due to alcohol comsumption and metabolic syndrome, yet there is no consensus regarding appropriate therapy. Aim and study design: Open label nonrandom study in order to assess efficiency of liver protective phytoproducts in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH) Patients and methods: 30 patients , 11...
