Phytic acid is known as inositol hexakis phosphate (IP6) inositol poly phosphate, or phytate (when it is in salt form), discovered in 1903 (Mullaney 2012). Phytic acid has been termed as anti–nutrient due to its ability to bind minerals protein and starches, either directly or indirectly and thus alter their solubility functionality and absorption (Nelson, 1967) The effect of phytic acid inhuman and animals nutrition are related to the interaction of phytic acid with protein, vitamins and several minerals, thereby restricting their bio-extractability (Svanberg and Lorri, 1997). Lower serum lipids have been associated with higher intake of the phytic acid, and an addition of phytic acid to high cholesterol diet reduced both serum cholesterol and triacylglycarols. In broilers (P.A) showed lower feed consumption, severely reduced growth and leg problems as a sign of P-deficiency. In view of the anti nutritional effects of phytic acid many attempts have been made to eliminate phytic acid from foods by several methods such as soaking ,fermentation , storing, cooking, germination, dehulling (Sathe2002), (Mahgoub and Elhag1998), (Ockenden and Lott1997 ,Omara2000). In Sudan poultry diets content depend on sorghum bicolor especially (F.G) ,the cereals have a large amount of phytic acid (more than 887mg/100g), and thus maybe alter the performance of poultry ,so the trial was conducted to use simple processing methods such as dehulling soaking -germination –vitamin C ,and storing methods to reduce phytic acid compound from sorghum bicolor (F.G), the main dish in broiler diet in Sudan and to investigate the effect of that on Broiler performance , and to shed light on phytic acid as a controversial component. Abstract: Two experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of reducing sorghum phytate on broilers performance. Firstly, an Experiment was conducted to reduce phytic acid from Sudanese Sorghum bicolor (local name: Feterita Gadarif (F.G)) using simple technique methods. Approximate Analyses was done to determine the initial and final nutrition values of the grains while using processing methods and to measure the change of nutrient content after processing treatments. The treatments of processing were divided into five methods of process in addition of control (unprocessed cereal) such as dehulling, germination, soaking, vitamin C and storing methods respectively, to reduce phytic acid content of the grains. The treatments shown significant decrease (p>0.05) in phytic acid contents of the processed sorghum as compared with unprocessed one (control). The second experiment was divided into two periods: starter and finishing period. 300 old unsexed broilers (HybroB) were used in one day. Six experiment diets were formulated with different level of processed sorghum (F.G), with 5 replicates in complete randomized design. Feed intake, body weight were weekly recorded. Then weight gain and feed conversion ratio was calculated, mortality was also recorde

Fire is a seasonal phenomenon prevalent in savannah ecosystems [1]. In Chad, as throughout the African savannah areas, bush fires are caused by various causes, including the preparation of new agricultural plots, regeneration of pastures, protection of dwellings and ceremonial rituals. There are also accidental fires due to smoking of hives or carbonization. The importance given to bush fires in Africa is also justified by the fact that fires are used by managers of the environment for management reasons. Fires can also occur through negligence due to favorable climatic conditions [2]. Early fires are lit at the end of the rainy season to improve pasture production and maintain the composition and specific richness of herbaceous plants [3]. These fires, often intentional, burn a still active vegetation with a relatively high water content. This type of fire is considered to be the least harmful because it consumes less plant material. In general, the fire progresses slowly and many saved organisms will allow an active recovery during the first rainfall or simply during a rise in the hygrometry [4]. In Sudan savannahs and particularly in Chad, early fires are officially approved and are generally observed between October and November. Fire, by its action, induces changes in the physical and chemical properties of the soil. The physical impact of fire on the soil includes the destruction of the structure and the reduction of the soil water holding capacity [5]. Some important physical characteristics in the soil are affected by the heating of the soil due to fires [6]. These features include soil color, texture and pH. The color of the soil is deeply altered after a fire with a high concentration of fuel [7]. The ash from the combustion is gray or black in the case of a moderate fire. The color of soils subjected to fires with a temperature of at least 600 o C with 45 minutes of exposure turns red [8]. Soil texture components (sand, silt and clay) generally react at very high temperatures on the soil surface [6]. The clay remains the sensitive fraction, already at 400° C, the hydration and the lattice structures of the clay begin to collapse and then between 700 and 800° C., the complete destruction of Abstract: This paper deals with the study of early fire on soil properties in the savanna. The approach chosen is based on the study of experimental plots in relation to early fires. The study was conducted in the Guirkouh forest in the Sudanian zone in Chad. The main objective of this study is to contribute to the knowledge of the effects of early fires on the physicochemical properties of the soil in the savanna. The research work was carried out in an experimental system covering 0.25 ha. Three fuel treatments were considered in addition to the control in the early fire regime. The results showed no significant difference in the rate of progression and in the intensity of the fire. And no significant differences were observed between the profiles

Rice blast is a worldwide problem in rice and is dangerous because of its yield loss potential ranging up to 100% under favorable conditions (Luo et al., 1998; Netam et al., 2011). The disease is generally considered the most important worldwide disease in all the rice growing regions of the world and has been reported in more than 85 countries (Rao, 1994). It is also the most important fungal disease in both upland and lowland rice (Bonman et al., 1991; Lee, 1994).

Development, including agricultural development anywhere is always clashing traditional society to modern society. Both of these social groups have different views in a production orientation, perspective to the technology used. Proponents of progress, make the laws of the market as a fundamental reason why productivity should be encouraged to meet the needs of population. Environmental degradation in recent years, give signals for the need of production systems that are environmentally friendly and healthy. Using descriptive methods, this research proves that the traditional farming systems is still existent, efficient and healthy for organic products, and the most importants is environmentally friendly, so it should be considered to be a model farming with a few modification to increase the farmers income.

Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is the second most important vegetable in economic importance and consumption in the world, second only to potatoes (Ibitoye et.al, 2009). It is the most popular vegetable crop with versatile culinary uses. From processing to fresh market, and from sauce to juice and salad, the variety and usefulness of the fruit is virtually boundless. It can be eaten raw in salads or cooked, fried or sundried (ARC, 2013). Tomato fruits provide micronutrients, fiber, vitamins and minerals essential for a balanced and healthy diet. Tomato is a rich source of vitamins A and C, potassium and fiber. It is also rich in lycopene (Dimascio et al., 1989; Trinklein, 2010), the pigment that makes tomatoes red and has been linked to the prevention of or fight against many forms of cancer. Furthermore, Tabasi et.al (2013) indicated that lycopene is the leading factor to health promoting ability of tomatoes.
番茄(Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.)是世界上经济重要性和消费量第二重要的蔬菜,仅次于土豆(Ibitoye等,2009)。它是最受欢迎的蔬菜作物,具有多种烹饪用途。从加工到新鲜市场,从酱汁到果汁和沙拉,水果的种类和用途几乎是无限的。它可以在沙拉中生吃,也可以煮熟、油炸或晒干(ARC, 2013)。番茄果实提供微量营养素、纤维、维生素和矿物质,是均衡健康饮食所必需的。西红柿富含维生素a和C、钾和纤维。它还富含番茄红素(Dimascio et al., 1989;Trinklein, 2010),这种色素使西红柿变红,并与预防或对抗多种癌症有关。此外,Tabasi et.al(2013)指出番茄红素是番茄促进健康能力的主要因素。

The selected varieties and hybrids of sugar beet tolerant to the viral Rhizomania disease / Beet necrotic yellow virus / is one of the innovative fields in the selection of sugar beet. The aim of the present research is to track the economic properties of the new sugar beet hybrids tested under conditions of absence of the viral disease. It is found that among the tests new hybrids outweigh the group standard by 6.7% in yield of white sugar. Hybrids tolerant to the disease have a higher resistance to fungal diseases cercospora / Cercospora betikola /and mildew /Erysiphe communis. It has been found that the decay of roots in the tolerant to Rhizomania hybrids had proved to be lower (52%) than that of the standard.

AgNps were synthesized from the Endophytic fungus Fusarium semitectum isolated from healthy leaves of a medicinal plant Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha). Characterization of AgNps by UV-Vis showed a maximum absorption peak at 422nm. TEM revealed AgNps to be smaller in size, spherical in shape from 1220nm. Different concentration of AgNps was tested against germination of Mungbean, Pigeon Pea and Chickpea seeds. Percent seed germination, root and shoot length of all the three seeds were measured. The Germination index (G.I) of Mungbean and Pigeon Pea seeds was maximum 123.33 and 117.64 with 200μl of AgNps and Cent percent seed germination in Mungbean seeds while it was 58.3% in Pigeon Pea. The average root and shoot length was maximum 4.6cm and 4.7cm with 100μl of AgNps in Mungbean whereas, shoot length was 4cm at 200μl and root length was 4.4cm at 100μl. In case of Chickpea the G.I was maximum 46.51 with maximum % seed germination of 78.5% and shoot length of 2cm with maximum root length of 4.9cm at 100μl of AgNps. All these results reveal that 100 and 200μl of AgNps can enhance root and shoot germination while, higher concentration of AgNps showed Phytotoxicity revealing that dose dependency will have good effect on overall plant growth.

The Germination index (G.I) of Mungbean and Pigeon Pea seeds was maximum 123.33 and 117.64 with 200μl of AgNps and Cent percent seed germination in Mungbean seeds while it was 58.3% in Pigeon Pea. The average root and shoot length was maximum 4.6cm and 4.7cm with 100μl of AgNps in Mungbean whereas, shoot length was 4cm at 200μl and root length was 4.4cm at 100μl. In case of Chickpea the G.I was maximum 46.51 with maximum % seed germination of 78.5% and shoot length of 2cm with maximum root length of 4.9cm at 100μl of AgNps. All these results reveal that 100 and 200μl of AgNps can enhance root and shoot germination while, higher concentration of AgNps showed Phytotoxicity revealing that dose dependency will have good effect on overall plant growth.","PeriodicalId":117425,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Research Studies in Agricultural Sciences","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126940318","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Finger millet (ElucinecoracanaL. Gaertn), belongs to the Poaceae family, is one of the important food cereal crops in the Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia region. It is the third most broadly produced millets after pearl millet (Pennisetumglaucum) and foxtail millet (Setariaitalica) in the semi-arid tropical and subtropical regions of the world (Asfawet al., 2011). In Ethiopia, it is the sixth important cultivated cereal crops after tef, wheat, maize, sorghum and barley (Amare et al., 2019). It is frequently mixed with other cereal crops such as sorghum or tef to prepare composite flour for local food such as injera and porridge (Amare et al., 2019). It contains relatively higher concentration of calcium and dietary fiber than other cereal crops (Wondimu and Tekabe, 2001).

Salinity is one of the most brutal environmental factors limiting the productivity of crop plants because most of the crop plants are sensitive to salinity caused by high concentrations of salts in the soil, and the area of land affected by it is increasing day by day. Salinity is one of the major anthropogenic as well as environmental stresses that reduce plant growth. Maize is a plant known for food, feed, and energy value, but being a greater biomass, it may also be utilized to extract pollutants from soil. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) may act as bio fertilizer to improve plant health. Some rhizobacteria are beneficial to plants and affect plant growth positively through different mechanisms of action. Ethylene, a plant hormone, also known as a stress hormone, is released by the plant as a physiological response when exposed to a variety of different stresses including both edaphic and adaphic. Growth of maize plants behaves better under saline environment as inoculated with different rhizobial strain showing ACC Deaminaze activity due to the production of ethylene under stressed conditions. Reduction in sodium uptake by the utilization of different rhizobial strains under saline environment is a positive sign to induce salt tolerance biologically.
