Nutritional Characteristics of Brachiaria ruziziensis (Germain & Evrard) Subjected t d) Subjected to Different Doses of Gamma Ra ent Doses of Gamma Rays
(International Grassland Congress, 2021)Appropriate methods of mutation induction are of high importance in pastures for increased genetic variability and improved forage performance. The objective of this research was to improve agronomic and nutritive performance ... -
Effect of larval food plants and seasons on the quality of the African wild silkmoth, gonometa postica walker (lepidoptera: lasiocampidae) cocoons
(Kenyatta University, 2009)Wild silkmoth farming offers an economic incentive for forest-adjacent communities to fully participate in forest conservation initiatives. Gonometa postica Walker is known to produce high-quality silk. It is being ... -
Current State of Handling, Processing and Quality of Omena (Rastrionebola argentea) in Mfangano and Rusinga Islands, Kenya
(2010-12)The livelihood of many Small Scale Fishers in Lake Victoria is based on the Omena Rastrionebola argentea fishery. The processing and trading in Omena in Kenya is dominated by women (80%) who derive their livelihood from ... -
Effect of bacillus thuringiensis (bt)–cotton protein endotoxins (cryiac and cry2ab2) on below ground fauna diversity with reference to entomopathogenic nematodes
(2010)This study was conducted with the aim of determining the impact of genetically modified (GM) cotton on the diversity of below ground fauna. The entomopathogenic nematode, Steinernema karii infectivity to the larvae of the ... -
Ecological management of cereal stem borers in Ethiopia. Integrated Approaches to Higher Maize Productivity in the New Millennium.
(2002)Three lepidopterous stem borers were reported on maize in Ethiopia. Although complete crop loss is evident in some areas, the average yield loss of maize caused by cereal stem borers in Ethiopia can be estimated between ...
