Isolation and Characterisation of Ralstonia Solanacearum Strains of Tomato Wilt Disease from Maseno, Kenya
(Asian Economic and Social Society, 2017)
Ralstonia solanacearum (E.F. Smith) Yabuuchi, is the cause of bacterial wilt of tomato and one of the most severe pathogens of solanaceous crops with a very wide host range. There is little information on R. solanacearum ...
Phytochemical Screening and Antimicrobial Effects of Leaf and Root Extracts of Crotalaria Brevidens on Candida Albicans, Staphylococcus Aureus and Escherichia...
(2017)
Crotalaria brevidens (slenderleaf) leaves and shoots are used as food and have medicinal properties
when consumed by human beings. It also acts as an agent in promotion of suicidal germination of striga, a
parasitic plant ...
Hormonal correlates of natal dispersal and rank attainment in wild male baboons
(Academic Press, 2017-08-01)
General analytical solution for the one dimensional regular Cauchy problem of Euler-Poisson-Darboux equation
(Hikari Ltd, 2017)
A general analytical solution to the one dimensional regular Cauchy
problem of Euler-Poisson-Darboux (EPD) equation has been investigated. The one dimensional EPD which is a Partial Differential Equation (PDE) with initial ...
Evaluation of soil properties of sugarcane zones and cropping systems for improved productivity in Western Kenya
(International Journal of Agronomy and Agricultural Research (IJAAR), Vol. 11, No. 3, p. 1-16, 2017, 2017-09-30)
Unsuitable soil properties can adversely affect sugarcane productivity. The role of soil chemical, physical and biological properties on low productivity has not been evaluated. Soil nutrient survey was conducted to evaluate ...
Structural and spectroscopic analysis of ex-situ annealed RF sputtered aluminium doped zinc oxide thin films
(AIP Publishing LLC, 2017)
Aluminium doped zinc oxide thin films are prepared by Radio Frequency magnetron sputtering in
pure argon atmosphere at 100 W. The structural results reveal good film adhesion on a silicon
substrate (001). The thin films ...
Tea (Camellia sinensis (L). O Kuntze) Variations in Yields, Yield Components and Leaf Nutrients Responses to Geographical Location and Nitrogen Fertiliser Rates in Kenya
(Maseno University, 2017)
Tea provides income and employment to rural populations in many countries. Tea, grown in east and west of the Rift Valley, is the leading export commodity crop in Kenya. Variable responses among genotypes to different ...
Yields and Nitrogenous Fertiliser Use Efficiency Responses of Clonal Tea (Camellia Sinensis) to Locations of Production
(International Journal of Tea Science Vol 13, No. 1&2 (2017) : 32-40, 2017)
Tea husbandry practices in Kenya are uniform despite variations in responses to agronomic inputs with locations. Nitrogen availability is the most limiting tea/crop growth factor. However, tea yields vary with region of ...
Near-Exact Non-relativistic Energies for Many-Electron Atoms
(2017-12)
Electron-electron interactions and correlations form the basis of difficulties encountered in the
theoretical solution of problems dealing with multi-electron systems. Accurate treatment of the
electron-electron problem ...
Evaluation of selected Acremonium zonatum Saw. Gams. mycoherbicide-oil mixtures for Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms. Laubach) biocontrol in Lake Victoria (Kenya
(2017)
The use of microbial innoculum oil formulations has shown great promise for enhancing the efficacy
of fungal agents that show potential as insecticides, fungicides and herbicides. When used in mycoherbicide
formulation, ...
