Early plant height at 30 DAS appeared to be the most important trait in predicting weed biomass

The experiment was carried out at the Agronomy Field Laboratory and Weed Management Laboratory, Department of Agronomy, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during the period from February to June 2016. Geographically the experimental area is located at 24˚75’N latitude and 90˚50’E longitudes at the elevation of 18 m above the sea level. The experimental field was…

The over expression of androgen receptor in prostate cancer may promote cell growth

In this study, we show that cannabis extract treatment significantly down regulates protein expression of prostate CB1 and CB2. Meanwhile, Cannabis treatment not only suppresses the spheroid formation ability of prostate cancer cells but also down regulates pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 and chemokine IL-8, decreases secreted protein and mRNA expression of prostate-specific antigen and VEGF levels.…

Microscopy is useful for the identification and authentication of botanicals and for detecting the adulterated and poor quality

The Democratic Republic of the Congo is a country of great biological diversity  and these natural products should therefore be upgraded so that they can also serve the entire rural population.It is an innovative concept, which should be developed due to the fact that currently this subject is very almost not documented and the writings…

The only definitive treatment identified for CHS is the cessation of marijuana

The wide-spread adoption of glyphosate resistant crops coupled with over-reliance on glyphosate and inadequate diversity in weed management tactics in GRCs have resulted in weed species shifts. Weed species shifts refers to a relative change in weed population or species along with late season weed emergence in an agricultural system in response to weed management…

Residue from winter annual cover crop provides early-season weed suppression

In water seeded rice, the field is continuously flooded.Water seeding takes advantage of that by establishing an early water covering to suppress weeds, but continuous flooding in water seeded rice culture encourages aquatic weeds, and when continuous flood is not maintained, it encourages semiaquatic weeds .Cover crops provide numerous environmental and weed suppression benefits. The…

The decline in modulus is non-uniform and after initial decline seems to recover for longer exposure times

After 1000 hours of exposure to UV radiation plus condensation, the composites lost almost 30% of their intrinsic tensile modulus. The reduction in tensile modulus is more gradual for composites exposed to UV radiation only. After 1000 hours of exposure to UV radiation, the composites lost approximately 30% of their intrinsic modulus. However the loss…

The large number of test trials can produce fatigue even without exposure to marijuana

Moreover, we have used the model to detect subspecies differences in the maze performance of rats and to characterize the learning deficits in honey bees exposed to agro chemicals.The remainder of this article describes the mathematical foundation of our model and finishes with an example of how the model is used in practice. We would…

The presented work investigates the properties of fibers extracted from the bast of Cola lepidota stem

This use is justified by their durability in the textile field, their availability and their specific properties. However, with the increase of demand in green materials combined to the decrease of growing space for these common plant fibers, and the race towards new tropical species which are accessible and at lower cost, some recent scientific…

The aim of the present study is to develop a functional and biodegradable ECB for agriculture applications

Many essential oils, such as garlic, oregano, cinnamon, thyme, basil, eucalyptus,rosemary, peppermint, etc., have been demonstrated to show antimicrobial activity . Therefore, these natural products are an alternative to replace synthetic chemical pesticides .The biological activity of these oils can be lost by volatilization of active components or their degradation by act of high temperatures,…
