ABSTRACT: Apparently healthy goats of either sex, aged between one to six years were selected for present study Fracture segment of these animals were brought into apposition and immobilized by dynamic compression plate (DCP). Haematological parameter such as total erythrocyte count (million/μl), total leucocyte count (thousand/μl), differential leucocyte count (per cent), haemoglobin (g/dl) and packed cell volume (per cent) were determined pre-operatively and on 7th , 15th , 30th, 45th, 60th and 90th post- operative day. A non significant decrease in the values of total erythrocyte count, Haemoglobin and Packed Cell Volume, was observed on 7th post-operative day followed by fluctuation of the values within normal physiological range.........

Keywords: Fracture, Haematological parameters, Total erythrocyte count, Total leucocyte count, Differential leucocyte count.

ABSTRACT: This study determines the benefits of Yankari Game Reserve (YGR) to its host communities. Applying a systematic random sampling approach, 320 respondents were identified around the host communities and administered with semi-structured questionnaire to elicit data that were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Male and female respondents were 76.3% and 23.7% respectively indicating male dominance over female. The greater proportion (63.1%) of the respondents had no western education, while 36.9% had. A higher proportion (81.6%) of the respondents was married while 18.4% was single. By aggregate 51.........

ABSTRACT: Turf grass is a chart-topping and the predominant form of vegetation in many cities and suburbs. Rapidly expanding urbanization and unceasing enlargement of population structure causing shrinkage of defoliated area profoundly diming the usefulness of environment friendly natural turf and making its management unbearable. Therefore, dire need is to investigate extensively on turf science counting turf grass breeding, genetics, cultivar evaluation and physiology. Among multitudinous utilitarian conveniences soil erosion prevention, dissipation of rain drop energy, adherence of soil by roots, infiltration of precipitation, purification of infiltrated water, recharge of ground water and last but not the least is the reformation of soil structure being supplemented organic matter uninterruptedly are predominantly pronounced..........

ABSTRACT: This study was conducted on a wild carob genotype grown in Al-Jabal Al-Akhdar area (Balagrae, Al-Baida, Libya). Seeds belonging to three individual trees chosen at random were collected. Seven different pre-sowing treatments (soaking in distilled water, boiling water 100C, soaking in sulphuric acid, mechanical scarification, mechanical scarification & soaking in distilled water, mechanical scarification & soaking in sulphuric acid and untreated seeds) were applied and examined for their effectiveness to stimulate carob seed germination. The results showed that mechanical scarification & soaking in distilled water treatment was the most effective method in increasing the germination percentage by (94.33%) compared to untreated seeds (5.99%)..........

ABSTRACT: A study was carried out to determine the maximum intake of mosquitoes' larvae within a twenty four hours period by two species of indigenous Anabantoids. The species used were Betta pugnax and Betta anabantoides and for each species five adult male fish were used. The feeding of the mosquito larvae every twenty four hours period was observed continuously for three days for each species. The mean standard length of the Betta pugnax and Betta anabantoides were 3.8cm and 3.7cm respectively and for the mosquitos' larvae, the length varies from 5 – 6mm. The mean intake of mosquitoes larvae counted for every twenty four hours for 3 days was 24.5 larvae for Betta pugnax and 16.7 larvae for Betta anabantoides. From this study it was concluded that Betta pugnax has a significantly (P<0.05) higher predatory capacity as compared to Betta anabatoides.

ABSTRACT: In this study, topical effectiveness of silver nitrate pencil on 33 dairy cows with ringworm (Fig. 1) was evaluated. The diameter, number and localized areas of lesions were recorded in each cattle. Later lesions were first cleansed with 70 % ethyl alcohol. Skin scraping and hair specimens were collected of the margin of the lesion using a sterile scalpel blade into sterile petri dish. Lesions were scraped with sterile scalpel until bleeding slightly. Later lesion area was cauterized with a silver nitrate (nitrate d'argent) pencil (Fig. 2 )..........

ABSTRACT: The main objective of this study was to investigate the effect of shading and water availability on tree seedling growth of cork oak (Quercus suber L.) and zeen oak (Quercus canariensis Willd). To reach this objective, two light intensities (moderate (L+) versus low (L-) intensity) and two water regimes (well-watered (W+) versus moderate drought (W-)) were applied. Cork oak seedlings growing under well-watered conditions were able to increase their height in response to low light intensity, while those growing under water deficit were not. By contrast, zeen oak's response to light was independent of water regime with greater height under..........

ABSTRACT: Crop residues are renewable sources of energy for ruminants. Pre-digestion of such materials with ligninases from white rot fungi may transform the lignocellulosic substrate into a feed with greater digestibility and higher quality for ruminants. This study has evaluated the effect of crude (T1) and purified(T2) lignin peroxidase (LiP) obtained from immobilized white rot fungi (LPS1) on chemical composition and in vitro digestibility of nine cereal crop residues commonly used for feeding ruminants. Untreated straw served as control(C). Each straw was hand chaffed into 2.3 to 3.0 cm bit length and treated with the enzyme by spraying at a ratio of 1:2.5 and left for 24 h before analysis.........

ABSTRACT: The results of studies on the influence of AKM plant growth regulator (PGR) on growth, development and yield formation of different sunflower hybrids (Zubr, Odes'kyi 249, Forvard, Yason) in low humidity of the southern Steppe of Ukraine are presented. Presowing treatment of seeds of different sunflower hybrids with AKM plant growth regulator causes an increase in leaf surface area by an average of 7%; increases sunflower plant resistance to abiotic stress and increases productivity by 13 - 31%.

ABSTRACT: The responses of broilers to organic chromium (Cr) fed under heat stress were investigated. About 256 day old Cobb 500 broilers were divided into four dietary groups and fed iso-caloric and iso-nitrogenous diets containing 0, 0.005, 0.010 and 0.015% organic Cr (yeast fermented) up to 35 days. Feed intake, body weight gain and feed conversion ratio (FCR) were measured. Blood samples were collected at 22 and 34 days of age to determine serum parameters. On 35 days, 2 broilers from each replicate were slaughtered to determine carcass traits. Body weight and weight gain of broilers fed Cr were significantly increased at 21 and 35 days (P<0.01). Feed intake was not affected up to 21 days but increased in Cr groups (P<0.05) from 22 to 35 days. The lowest FCR was recorded for 0.010% Cr (P<0.01)...........

ABSTRACT: Residue burning in semi-arid regions is considered a soil management practice given its time saving, pleasurable tillage, and easy seedbed preparation. Therefore, it is the focus of a great deal of research studies for surface runoff generation, flood susceptibility, and erosion hazard. The objectives of this study were to i) comparewater retention and transmission properties of completely-burned, moderately-burned, and unburned soil conditions and ii) simulatethe responses of soil conditions to water flow in the profile.The persistence of fire-induced impacts were studied in 3 hectare land for both burned and unburned conditions for two years.............

ABSTRACT: Mites are living organisms having cosmopolitan distribution and have free to parasitic mode of life. They are microscopic and belong to the largest Arthropods. According to their habit and habitat they are of different types like plant mites, gall mites, animal mites, poultry mites etc. They dwell in dust accumulating in carpets, bedding, fabrics, furniture and poultry.They are negatively phototactic.Mites are allergens too causing allergies, eczema, asthma, rhinitia, bronchitis etc to human and animals. Humidity and temperature are the most important factors that regulate the dust mite population............
