Nucleotide Sequence of Citrus Tristeza Virus Seedling Yellows Isolate
(2001)The complete nucleotide sequence of a seedling-yellows-inducing isolate NUagA of Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) was determined. It consisted of 19302 nucleotides and contained 12 open reading frames (ORF) organized identically ... -
Impact of Forest Disturbance and Land Use Change on Soil and Litter Arthropod Assemblages in Tropical Rainforest Margins
(2010)Land use intensification at rainforest margins increases the pressure on the primary rainforest ecosystem, known for its high biodiversity and important functional role in global climate and carbon balances. Studying this ... -
Density of Boring Marine Bivalves in Pieces of Wood Inside and Outside Pelabuhan Ratu Harbour, West Java, Indonesia
(1997)Six species of boring marine bivalves, Teredo navalis Spengler, Teredo stutchburyi "Leach" de Blainville, Bankia syriaca Roch, Bankia minima de Blainville, Bankia zeteki Bartsch and Martesia striata Linne, were found in ... -
Surveys on Postharvest Handling, Aspergillus Flavus Infection, and Aflatoxin Contamination of Maize Collected from Farmers and Traders
(1996)Postharvest handling, Aspergillus flavus infection, aflatoxin contamination, moisture contents, and percentages of damaged kernels of maize were surveyed in Central Lampung (Lampung province) and Kediri (East Java province) ... -
Utilization of agricultural wastes for biogas production in Indonesia
(2010)Abstract Indonesia has been facing the fuel energy problems in some parts of the country, especially in rural areas. In order to reduce dependence on commercial energy, steps have been taken to develop an alternative source, ... -
Intraguild Predation among the Hoverfly Episyrphus balteatus de Geer (Diptera: Syrphidae) and Other Aphidophagous Predators
(2010)Aphidophagous predators compete for the same prey species. During their foraging activity they frequently encounter heterospecific aphid predators. These situations can lead to intraguild predation and may disrupt biological ... -
Effect of initial clod size on characteristics of splash and wash erosion
(1968)Wash erosion increased as initial clod size increased from 0.5–2 mm to 8–30 mm on a Marshall silty clay loam except in the case of clods from continuous bromegrass (Bromus inermis). Wash losses increased as size increased ... -
Metabolism of Myo-Inositol and Growth in Various Sugars of Suspension cultured Tobacco Cells
(1978)Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) cells were cultured in a liquid medium which contained sucrose as a source of carbon and energy. Various cell-wall constituents and wall precursors (Larabinose, D-xylose, D-galactose, D-mannose, ... -
Frequency Distribution of Maize Yield Before and After Reciprocal Recurrent Selection
(1977)Reciprocal recurrent selection in populations of Zea mays L. will be of great value if the increase in mean performance is accompanied by a corresponding increase in performance of hybrids found in the upper tail of the ... -
Near surface soil moisture estimation from microwave measurements
(2010)Soil moisture, water potential, and bulk density measurements were performed on a 0.4 ha bare field (27.2% clay, 61.7% fine and coarse loam) concurrent with backscattering coefficient measurements: 17 different volumetric ... -
Nitrous Oxide Flux from Irrigated Rice Fields in West Java
(1998)Nitrous oxide (N2O) fluxes were measured from rice fields treated using different irrigation techniques and types of urea fertilisers. The highest flux was 131.56 ìg N2O---N m.2 h.1, measured during the fifteenth week after ... -
Is soil degradation unrelated to deforestation? Examining soil parameters of land use systems in upland Central Sulawesi, Indonesia
(2004)It is generally assumed that declining soil fertility during cultivation forces farmers to clear forest.We wanted to test this for a rainforest margin area in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia.We compared soil characteristics ... -
Transport Properties Of Cellular Food Materials Undergoing Freeze-Drying
(2010)Abstract The samples of sliced and mashed apples were freeze-dried by controlling their surface temperatures over the usual pressure range of commercial operations. The surface of sliced samples could not ... -
A New Macrolactin Antibiotic From Bacillus Subtilis Active Against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus, Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci, And A Small-Colony Variant Of Burkholderia Cepacia is 7-O-Malonyl Macrolactin A.
(2010)We report here the discovery, isolation, and chemical and preliminary biological characterization of a new antibiotic compound, 7-O-malonyl macrolactin A (MMA), produced by a Bacillus subtilis soil isolate. MMA is a ... -
Spatial patterns of greenhouse gas emission in a tropical rainforest in Indonesia
(2005)Spatial patterns of CO2, CH4, and N2O flux were analyzed in the soil of a primary forest in Sumatra, Indonesia. The fluxes were measured at 3-m intervals on a sampling grid of 8 rows by 10 columns, with fluxes found to be ... -
The effect of fungicides on vesiculararbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis
(1995)Two experiments were conducted uder controlled environmental conditions to determine the effects of the three fungicides, Benlate@, and Aliette@ and Ridomil@, on efficiency of P uptake from the soil and transfer across the ...
