Subject:
broiler chickens; ova; hydrogen peroxide; Salmonella; disease control; ammonium chloride; microbial contamination; application rate
Abstract:
... Varying levels (10⁵ to 10⁷/egg) of Salmonella Typhimurium were inoculated onto fertile hatching eggs by immersion. After this, the inoculated eggs were untreated (control), water treated, hydrogen peroxide (1.5%) treated, or Timsen treated (n-alkyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride as a commercial bactericide-fungicide). Hydrogen peroxide was superior to Timsen as an egg treatment to eliminate art ...

An "advance" is defined as any technology that leads to an increase in production of Kappaphycus alvarezii (Doty) Doty, K striatum Schmitz and Eucheuma denticulatum (Burman) Collins et Harvey (commercial eucheumatoid species) per unit time, effort, area and cost in more than one cultivation area. The present review has shown that no true advances have taken place in commercial eucheumatoid farming ...

Abstract:
... Human health and environmental concerns have led to the eventual phase-out of benomyl (Benlate) and vinclozolin (Ronilan), two efficaceous, broad spectrum fungicides widely used on a range of crops, including snap beans. With fewer registered fungicides available for mold control, snap bean growers are in need of alternatives. We compared six foliar fungicides against Ronilan for gray (Botrytis ci ...

Abstract:
... • Suppression of soil‐borne diseases of horticultural crops by composts has been attributed to the activities of antagonistic microorganisms. The potential for abiotic disease suppression in field‐grown crops was explored using glasshouse‐based bio‐assays for five pathogens of agricultural crops and eight formulations of recycled organic matter compost. • The effects of compost formulation and pos ...

Examination of a collection of P. syringae pv. syringae isolates for copper resistance showed that 59% were resistant to cupric sulfate. The survey of a mango orchard revealed an increase in frequencies of copper-resistant bacteria after repeated treatments wit ...

Abstract:
... The majority of parasites affecting a herd of animals are harbored by a relatively few very susceptible hosts within the herd. Those few animals are responsible for maintenance and transmission of the parasite population to the more resistant animals. This observation has long held the promise of ectoparasite control by natural host resistance if the resistant phenotype could be selected for, or t ...

Abstract:
... Currently there is very little information on the response of fruiting perennial plants to applied P. This is especially true for tropical production areas where soils have a high capacity of P fixation, and are poor in native phosphorus. An alternative to soil P fertilization, which is inefficient in fixing soils, is to apply phosphorus as a foliar spray. P is quickly absorbed by leaves, and is r ...

Abstract:
... An antibiotic- and siderophore-producing Pseudomonas strain isolated from virgin soils (with forest trees) displayedin vitro antibiosis against many plant pathogenic fungi. The presence of iron had no effect on thisin vitro antibiosis. Seed bacterization improved germination, shoot height, root length, fresh and dry mass, enhanced yield and chlorophyll content of leaves in the five test crop plant ...
