Identification, characterisation, and evaluation of bioactive plant-based compounds for the sustainable stabilisation of food packaging materials
(2022-04-05)
Typically, plastic packaging materials are produced using additives, like e.g. stabilisers, to introduce specific desired properties into the material or, in case of stabilisers, to prolong the shelf life of such packaging ......

Implications of topography and agronomic practices for soil biogeochemical and microbiological properties in Upper Eastern Ghana hilly farmland
(2022-02-10)
While topography can infer erosion potential, implementation of convention practices can trigger accelerated erosion, and both pose major threats to soil abiotic properties and microbiota. The majority of farmlands in the ...
Characterization of mechanisms of resistance in Spodoptera frugiperda to synthetic insecticides and insecticidal proteins
(2021-03-18)
Fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda(J.E. Smith), is a major lepidopteran pest of maize in the American continent butitis now present in 107 countries worldwide. The control of FAW has relied mainly on the ...
Interactive tillage & crop residue management effects on soil properties, crop nutrient uptake & yield in different weathered soils of West Africa: measurements, modelling & scenario simulations
(2020-04-22)
Sustainable crop production intensification in West Africa is hampered by constraints such as soil degradation, mainly due to excessive mining of soil nutrients, topsoil loss by surface runoff, and climatic factors like ...
Studies on the effect of exogenous amino acid application on nematodes
(2020-03-02)
Plant parasitic nematodes are considered as key pathogens in agricultural crop production. They cause substantial yield losses in numerous crops and across all climatic regions worldwide. Antagonistic effects on various ......
Phenotyping of wheat resistance to Fusarium head blight using hyperspectral imaging
(2021-02-10)
The integrated management of Fusarium head blight (FHB) on wheat depends on the implementation of agricultural practices, cultivation of resistant varieties, and fungicides application. Reducing yield losses and mycotoxin ......
Heavy metal contamination in urban agriculture and human health risk in Yaoundé, Cameroon
(2022-12-14)
Heavy metals are ubiquitous in the environment. The sources of heavy metals are both natural and anthropogenic activities. Urban growth, coupled with increasing demand for vegetables, has led to the utilization of lowlands ......
Schwermetalle sind allgegenwärtig in der Umwelt. Die Quelle für Schwermetalle sind sowohl natürlich als auch von Menschen verursachte Aktivitäten. Das Wachstum der Städte und die damit einhergehende steigende Nachfrage ......

Adjuvant-induced alterations of cuticular waxes and their consequences for mechanisms of drought stress resistance
(2023-07-26)
The most important function of the cuticular waxes is the shielding of the plant from uncontrolled water loss as well as from pathogens, UV radiation and pollutants. Penetrating agrochemicals are also effectively shielded ...
