filed experiment was conducted to study the effect of manure and various combinations of foxtail millet and mungbean intercropping on the grain yield, weed performance,and the nutrients concentration in millet. the experimental design was a split plot with three replications. main plots were differentmanure rates (0, 15 and 30 t ha-1) and the subplots comprised five combinations of intercroppin...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Minor histocompatibility antigen (mHag)-specific graft-versus-leukemia reactivities are observed following unselected donor lymphocyte infusion for the treatment of relapse after HLA-matched mHag-mismatched stem cell transplantation (SCT). Adoptive transfer of donor-derived ex vivo-generated HA-1-specific oligoclonal T cells or HA-1 peptide patient vaccination are curr...

The estrogenic isoflavones of soybeans and their glycosides are products of the shikimate pathway, the target pathway of glyphosate. This study tested the hypothesis that nonphytotoxic levels of glyphosate and other herbicides known to affect phenolic compound biosynthesis might influence levels of these nutraceutical compounds in glyphosate-resistant soybeans. The effects of glyphosate and oth...

A Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri S. Watson) biotype has evolved resistance to photosystem (PS) II- (atrazine) and 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD)-inhibiting herbicides (mesotrione, tembotrione, and topramezone) in maize seed production field in Nebraska, USA. The objectives of this study were to determine the effect of soil residual pre-emergence (PRE) herbicides followed by (fb...

The study compares energy production from semi-natural grasslands by the integrated generation of solid fuel and biogas from biomass (IFBB) through mechanical separation of the biomass with the dry fermentation (DF) and hay combustion system (HC). In addition, traditional use for beef cattle production and non-refining systems of landscape conservation, i.e. mulching and composting, are conside...

An experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications and 14 fertilizer treatments in year 2014. The treatments were including the control, application of chemical fertilizers according the soil analysis, application of 15, 30 and 45 tons of municipal  waste compost per ha as simple and with 25, 50 and 75% of chemical fertilizers. The results revealed that the ...

Excess nitrogen (N) caused by straw returning to paddy fields undergoing flooding irrigation deteriorates the water quality. The purpose of this research was use both simulated field and pot experiments explore a new approach using zeolite recycle excess N. results from in stagnant showed N adsorption with different applications (25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150 g L−1). Pot revealed how reused affecte...

We studied the effects of five thinning treatments (T1 = 5.5, T2 = 11, T3 = 16.5, T4 = 22.5 and T5 = 28.5 m(2) ha(-1) basal area under bark) x two fertilizer treatments (F0 = unfertilized and F1 = fertilized with 400 kg ha(-1) N plus 229 kg ha(-1) P) on growth and water relations of pole-sized Eucalyptus marginata J. Donn ex Sm. trees growing in southwestern Australia. Thinning reduced leaf are...

The ionizing radiation of livestock wastewater for the removal of nitrogen and phosphorus was studied in the presence of a natural zeolite. The feasibility of a combined process of zeolite ion exchange and electron beam irradiation of livestock wastewater was also investigated. The removal efficiencies of NH4-N, T-N and T-P were significantly enhanced by electron beam irradiation after zeolite ...
