activate the corresponding resistance mechanism. The project already was successful. A molecule (CGA 245’704) was found that stimulates the plant defence mechanisms and, as a consequence, provides effective and long-lasting protection against a wide range of pathogens without being a fungicide, i....
proposed using a raindrop sensor's support which detects the rainfall and moisture content according to the environment and protects the harvested crop with a rooftop setup along with a PIR sensor connected with a buzzer which is been used to frighten the small animals and birds without harming ...
As part of a broader multi-phase project, this review stands out by addressing applications and current advancements of RNAi in the field, as well as their biomanufacturing readiness levels (BRL)—focusing on practical aspects like methods of application and formulation—which are relatively recent a...
RNAi-based applications aim to inhibit the expression of specific essential genes in target organisms by uptake and processing of double-stranded RNA and s
I am a proud farmer. I have always been, but I feel a sense of shame when I have a farm but cannot feed my family. Sometimes I have to borrow money to buy food from other farmers. Is that fair? Toiling and suffering for weeks only for these animals to destroy everything overnight...
If this is the main aim, it can be argued that low-diversity rotations lead to higher total production than more diverse rotations, despite their lower yield and greater need for curative crop protection, which could also require less land to grow. However, for agriculture to become sustainable...
Along the farm boundary,Gliricidia sepium L was grown as a biofuel, which was also used as green fodder for dairy animals, feedstock in the composting unit and for mulching dry season crops for moisture conservation and weed suppression. In addition, arecanut (Areca catechu L), banana (Musa ...
We assume these two types of food share a similar response to simulated nuclear war as they involve feeding animals in a relatively controlled environment. For global calculations for livestock, we assume that 46% are fed by pasture and 54% are fed by crops and processed products48and use nat...
considerations pertaining to biodiversity and environmental protection must be considered. For instance, when addressing rice cultivation, the de novo domestication of wild allotetraploid rice necessitates strategies such as gene editing to introduce or eliminate specific genes, thereby further enhancing the ...
were initially employed in animals (Kim and Kim 2014) and later in rice and other crop plants (Ainley et al.2013; Jung et al.2018). However, this approach lacks reproducibility and requires complex engineering to select a pair of ZFNs that work in vivo (Kim and Kim 2014). Its use in...
