Inter cropping and population density effects on yield component, seed quality and photosynthesis of sorgum and soybean
(School of Biological Sciences, 2001)Population density and intercropping of sorghum (sorghum bicolour (L) and Soybean {Glycine max Merril (L)} may alter their growth and yield patterns through responses to light and physiological attributes as compared to ... -
An inter-basinal comparison of the sedimentology of Late Holocene to recent sediments in the Rift Valley, Lake Turkana, Kenya
(2000)Grain size variations, sediment chemistry and general mineralogical assemblages of sediments in Lake Turkana reflect provenance. Allogenic sediments in Lake Turkana are mainly supplied by the Omo and Kerio-Turkwel Rivers. ... -
Interaction Between the Antibiotic Trichothecenes and the Higher Plant Baccharis megapotamica
(College of Physical and Biological Sciences, 1981-10)The Brazilian shrub Baccharis megapotamica contains significant amounts of antibiotic trichothecenes. When these plants are grown in the United States, they are devoid of the mycotoxins. Feeding experiments with fungus-produced ... -
The interaction of Trypanosoma congolense and Haemonchus contortus infections in 2 breeds of goat: 2. Haematology
(University of Nairobi, 2004)The red cell destruction rate was measured with [51Cr] isotope and the erythropoietic response in the femoral bone marrow was examined in 2 breeds of goat infected with T. congolense and H. contortus and compared with ... -
Interactions among vegetable-infesting aphids, the fungal pathogen Metarhizium anisopliae (Ascomycota: Hypocreales) and the predatory coccinellid Cheilomenes lunata (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)
(2016)Entomopathogenic fungi are among biocontrol agents being considered for the control of aphids on a variety of crops. Predatory coccinellids, although generalist, are also among important natural enemies that must be conserved ... -
