14-3-3 proteins are a large multigenic family of regulatory proteins ubiquitously found in eukaryotes. In plants, 14-3-3 proteins are reported to play significant role in both development and response to stress stimuli. Therefore, considering their importance, genome-wide analyses have been performed in many plants including Arabidopsis, rice and soybean. But, till date, no comprehensive invest...

Background: Pearl millet can thrive in a wide range of local conditions. In areas where sorghum cannot thrive, pearl is viable alternative. Sorghum and maize can't compete with when it comes to soil moisture utilisation heat tolerance.
 Objectives: Effects nitrogen phosphorus on yield economics millet
 Methods: With the goal studying effect (Pennisetum glaucum L.) Var. ABV - 04 under ...

1 A productivity growth rates in Africa have lagged behind the rest of the world due to lack of investment in agriculture in general and in agricultural research and development (R&D) in particular.1,2 Low productivity has especially affected basic African food crops such as sorghum, millet, cassava, sweet potato and cowpea, which are barely traded inter nationally and which benefited very litt...

Aflatoxins are naturally occurring toxins produced by certain fungi: mainly Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus. Several types of aflatoxins (B1, B2, G1, and G2) are produced by these fungi. The B1 form is recognized by the International Agency for Research on Cancer as one of the most naturally occurring toxic and carcinogenic substances found in nature. 1 These aflatoxin-producing ...

a growth chamber study was carried out to evaluate the allelopahtic effects of shoot and root water extract of hoary cress (cardaria draba) on seed germination and seedling characteristic of sorghum (sorghum bicolor). the study was conducted based on completely randomized design with four replications in research laboratory of faculty of agriculture, university of birjand in 2008. treatments we...

in order to study the competition effects of redroot pigweed (amaranthus retroflexus) and millet (panicum miliaceum) on maize performance under different rates of n fertilizer, a field experiment was conducted in 2009 in the research fields of tarbiat modares university in tehran as a randomized complete block design with factorial arrangement of treatments and three replications. accordingly, ...

Agriculture in Ghana is vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate variability. This poses a challenge food security across country. Despite this vulnerability, limited research has been conducted understand effect variability on yields staple crops Ghana. study assessed selected (millet, sorghum, rice, groundnut and maize). The used Mann-Kendall trend test multiple regression analysis assess...

In no-tillage systems, soil compaction has caused negative impacts on crop productivity and quality. The objective of this study was to evaluate the physical quality after different crops second season: maize, sorghum, millet in compacted uncompacted soils, addition evaluating performance soybean succession Rhodic Ferralsol under (NT) Brazilian Cerrado biome. A field experiment conducted during...

The objective of this study was to determine whether reconstituting field-dried and early-harvested sorghum grain affected the fermentation characteristics and feed value of the ensiled grain when fed to feedlot heifers. In Trial 1, sorghum grain was harvested at 14% moisture, rolled, and reconstituted to 25, 30, or 35% moisture, then ensiled in laboratory-scale silos. Lactic acid concentration...

We have collated and reviewed published records of the genera Panicum and Setaria (Poaceae), including the domesticated millets Panicum miliaceum L. (broomcorn millet) and Setaria italica (L.) P. Beauv. (foxtail millet) in pre-5000 cal b.c. sites across the Old World. Details of these sites, which span China, central-eastern Europe including the Caucasus, Iran, Syria and Egypt, are presented wi...
