Koonjaenak S. 2006. Semen and Sperm Characteristics of Swamp Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) Bulls for Artificial Insemination in Thailand, in Relation to Season. Doctoral thesis. ISSN 1652-6880, ISBN 91-576-7263-6 In this thesis work we tested the hypothesis that tropical climatic conditions affect the quality of fresh and frozen-thawed (FT) spermatozoa from swamp buffalo bulls used for artificial i...

New insecticides that exhibited high compatibility with environment components are very promising substitutes for control of the economic insects. Simi-field experiments were conducted on profenofos and four novel insecticides viz., spinosad, emamectin-benzoate, pyridalyl and indoxacarb to investigate their efficiency and the field persistence of their residues against 4 instar larvae of the co...

in order to evaluation of the relationship among protein markers and traits such as proline content variation, quantum efficiency of photosystem ii and field viability index, 20 genotypes of barely were studied in a randomized complete block design in the greenhouse experiment. plants were transferred to springhouse at the four leaf stage and were located at the temperature of 4°c for three wee...

The laboratory experiments were carriedout at the Institute of Organic Farming (IOF), UAS, Dharwad, during 2014-2015 to study bioefficacy different formulations Metarhizium anisopliae against coconut rhinoceros grubs, Oryctus (Linnaeus). Among oil based formulation, rice bran (60%) + corn (40%) formulation found least LC50 value (1.99 x 106 cfu/ml) 432 h. In granular and wettable powder recorde...

The frost hardiness of many plants such as chickpea can be increased by exposure to low non-freezing temperatures and/or the application of abscisic acid (ABA), a process known as frost acclimation. Experiments were conducted to study the response over a 14 d period of enriched plasma membrane fractions isolated from chickpea plants exposed to low temperature and sprayed with exogenous ABA. Mea...

Lipas jerman telah resisten terhadap berbagai macam insektisida, dibuktikan dengan adanya kasus resistensi lipas yang dilaporkan terjadi di beberapa wilayah Indonesia. Meskipun demikian, Kota Purwokerto sampai saat ini belum ada laporan mengenai tersebut. Tujuan khusus penelitian adalah mengetahui status dari tiga pasar tradisional fipronil. Metode digunakan metode kontak dan umpan menggunakan ...

Bifenthrin, chlorfenapyr, fipronil, and thiamethoxam were evaluated for activity against the Argentine ant, Linepithema humile (Mayr) (Hymenoptera: Formicidae). Mobility impairment and lethal times were determined after topical treatments. Ants were immobilized most quickly by bifenthrin, followed by chlorfenapyr and thiamethoxam. After 2 h, the number of fipronil-treated ants unable to walk ou...

The United States has the world s largest coal reserves and Montana the highest potential for mega-mine development. Consequently, a large-scale effort to convert coal to liquids (CTL) has been proposed to create a major source of domestic transportation fuels from coal, and some prominent Montanans want to be at the center of that effort. We calculate that the energy efficiency of the best exi...
