Dieldrin residue on barley grain crop

Crop Residue Decomposition in No-Tillage Small-Grain Fields

wind erosion. Soil microenvironments are different in fields that have surface-crop residues than in tilled fields Conservation tillage fields provide different environments for biowith incorporated residues. Natural-resource simulation logical and chemical processes than tilled fields. Our understanding of decomposition does not adequately account for post-harvest residue models that address s...

Effects of barley grain particle size on dairy cow performance

Effects of Crop Residue on the Persistence of Steinernema carpocapsae.

We determined the effects of crop residue on the persistence of an entomopathogenic nematode, Steinernema carpocapsae. During 2 consecutive years, nematodes were applied at rates of 2.5 x 10 and 1.0 x 10 infective juveniles/m(2) to small field plots planted with corn. Nematode persistence was monitored by exposing Galleria mellonella larvae to soil samples from plots with and without crop resid...

Studies on Synbiotic Barley Grain Extract against Some Human Pathogens

This study evaluated that effect of prebiotic food containing oligosaccharide to enhance the growth and activity of probiotic strains. Barley grains probioticated using different strains of probiotics are Lactobacillus kefiranofaciens, Candida kefir,and saccharomyces boluradii. To select a suitable prebiotics like inulin for the development of Synbiotic barley and tested for antibacterial activ...

Barley genetic variation: implications for crop improvement.

Genetic variation is crucial for successful barley improvement. Genomic technologies are improving dramatically and are providing access to the genetic diversity within this important crop species. Diverse collections of barley germplasm are being assembled and mined via genome-wide association studies and the identified variation can be linked to the barley sequence assembly. Introgression of ...
