Petroleum Products in Soil Mediated Oxidative Stress in Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) and Maize (Zea mays) Seedlings
The effects of petroleum products (kerosene, diesel, engine oil and petrol) treatment of soil at various sublethal concentrations (0.0%, 0.1%, 0.25%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5% and 2.0%) on oxidative stress markers (lipid peroxidation, superoxide dismutase activity, catalase activity and xanthine oxidase) were studied in cowpea and maize seedlings. The results indicated that the petroleum products caused...
متن کاملPERFORMANCES OF DIFFERENT HYBRID MAIZE (Zea mays L.) VARIETIES UNDER INTERCROPPING SYSTEMS WITH GROUNDNUT (Arachis hypogaea
The experiment was carried out at Regional Agricultural Research Station, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI), Jessore to evaluate the performance of different varieties of hybrid maize under intercropping systems with groundnut in rabi seasons to find out the suitable intercropping system in increasing crop productivity and profitability of consecutive two years (2004 and 2005). ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Quality Characteristics of High Nutrient Dense Complementary Food from Mixtures of Malted Quality Protein Maize (Zea mays L.) and Steamed Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata)
Quality Protein Maize is an improved variety of maize which contains higher amount of lysine and tryptophan. Cowpea is an indigenous legume widely consumed in Nigeria. Quality Protein Maize was malted by steeping, germinating, drying and milling while cowpea was dehulled, steamed, dried and milled. The resulting flours were blended to produce complementary food at ratios of 100:0; 70:30 (Qualit...
متن کاملRecent advances in cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L
After decades of research on cowpea, significant amount of omics datasets are available and useful in understanding the genetic relationship between Vigna unguiculata ssp. unguiculata and other species belonging to the same genus as well as its genetic variation. Besides, the development of genetic map allowed the chromosome localization of molecular markers associated with disease resistance, ...
متن کاملToxic effects of Pb2+ on growth of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata).
A concentration as low as 1 microM lead (Pb) is highly toxic to plants, but previous studies have typically related plant growth to the total amount of Pb added to a solution. In the present experiment, the relative fresh mass of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) was reduced by 10% at a Pb2+ activity of 0.2 microM for the shoots and at a Pb2+ activity of 0.06 microM for the roots. The primary site of ...
