An experiment was carried out at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during June to December 2012 with a view to finding out the effect of variety and nitrogen fertilizer application on the growth and yield of transplant Aman rice. The experiment comprised four varieties viz. BRRI dhan33, BRRI dhan34, BRRI dhan39 and BRRI dhan46, and four levels of nitr...

Background Recently, we have started a clinical trial to treat patients with high risk acute leukaemia with a donor-derived HA-1-TCR transduced virus-specific T-cell product as early as 8 weeks and 14 weeks after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT). Donor derived Cytomegalovirus (CMV)and Epstein Bar virus (EBV)-specific T-cells will be isolated using Streptamer based CliniMACS selec...

It has been suggested that raising soil pH through liming could reduce the impact of whitegrub on crop yield in the treated soil. To test this hypothesis, whitegrub incidence was monitored in a trial designed to examine the effects of various lime treatments on crop yields of varieties N16 and N12. Lime was applied at two rates (5 and 10 t/ha) and in combination with gypsum at 5 t/ha each. Resu...

RESUMEN Cabbage clubroot is a major constraint for the production of cruciferous species. This research aim at exploring the effect of Trichoderma koningiopsis (as the wettable powder formulated product Tricotec®) and dolomite on the disease and crop growth of cabbage. This study was carried out in a field with a prolonged history of clubroot incidence. The trial was set up in a randomized comp...

Unprimed T cells transferred to heavily irradiated H-2-compatible mice cause a high incidence of lethal graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD)a in certain strain combinations (1-3). GVHD in this setting is a consequence of mature post-thymic donor T cells responding to the multiple minor histocompatibility antigen (minor HA) differences of the host. With the combination of CBA and B10.BR (both H-2~), do...

A field experiment was conducted in two consecutive years to find out the efficacy of poultry refuse (PR), mustard oilcake (MOC), and Furadan 5G for the management of root-knot disease (Meloidogyne incognita) of tomato. Soil was treated with PR @ 3 and 5 t/ha, MOC @ 0.3 and 0.6 t/ha 3 weeks before transplanting and Furadan 5G @ 40 kg/ha on the day of transplanting of tomato seedlings. PR @ 3 t/...

in order to study on the effect of nitrogen, vermicompost and nitroxin biofertilizer on growth indices and phenology of sesame a field experiment was carried out at behbahan in summer of 2009. treatments were arranged in a factorial experiment based on rcbd with three replications. three rates of nitrogen fertilizer (50, 75 and 100% of region recommended nitrogen rate,) as a first factor, three...

An investigation was undertaken to study the feasibility of sugarbeet cultivation under Bangladesh condition during winter season of 2009-2010. Seeds of 14 sugarbeet genotypes were sown in the experimental field of Horticulture Research Centre of BARI, Gazipur on 10 November 2009. Visible root swelling in all genotypes started between 36 and 40 days after sowing (DAS). Nine genotypes had white ...

Field experiment on Tomato-Okra-Indian spinach cropping pattern was conducted at a farmer’s homestead of Tangail (AEZ 8) during 2007-08 and 2008-09 to find out a suitable combination of chemical fertilizers and organic manure for sustainable crop yield. There were 5 treatments comprising different percentages of the recommended chemical fertilizers (RCF) with two levels (0 and 5 t/ha) for tomat...

Six diethylaminoethyl-cellulose fractions of a larval Trichinella spiralis extract, an Ascaris suum extract, and a nonrelated protein were used for cutaneous tests in guinea pigs with 8-, 14-, and 73-day-old T. spiralis infections, in guinea pigs with 13-day-old A. suum infections, and in normal guinea pigs. A selected T. spiralis fraction was used in hemagglutination (HA) tests with sera of 8 ...
