Contrary to popular belief, ulcer is not caused by spicy food but instead is most commonly due to either an infection or long term use of medications. Standard treatment is a comb...

In this study, we investigated the mechanisms by which bermudagrass withstands the drought and submergence stresses through physiological, proteomic and metabolomic approaches. The results showed that significant physiological changes were observed after drought treatment, while only slight changes after submergence treatment, including compatible solute contents, ROS levels and antioxidant enz...

OBJECTIVE New investigations are in progress to find some alternative treatments for diabetes mellitus. Herbs are some of the interesting medications in this regard. Cynodon dactylon (C.d) is a potential plant to be considered as a new medication. On the other hand, the effect of the Electromagnetic Field (EMF) on bio organisms is becoming clearer. In this study, the effect of C.d, EMF and insu...

While some research has been conducted in sub–Saharan Africa on the alien invasive Parthenium hysterophorus, little work assessed whether it is poses negative impact native forages. A field survey was carried out to study dominant co–existing plant species, and its abundance, forage cover. We found that non–natives were plants with P. hysterophorus compared natives. Plant species (r = -0.889, P...

The effect of formulation and adjuvants on absorption and translocation of C-clethodim was determined at 1, 4, 12, 24, 48, and 72 h after treatment (HAT) in bermudagrass under greenhouse conditions. Absorption of C-clethodim with the 0.12 kg L (15 to 85%) formulation was higher than with the 0.24 kg L (5 to 40%) formulation, regardless of presence or absence of adjuvant. There was considerable ...
