Growth

Waste human hair causes environmental problems such as flooding, as a result of clogged drainages. It slowly breaks down over time to yield macro and trace minerals that are eventually returned to nature. Pleurotus ostreatus is cultivated worldwide, and it’s known to grow on several carbon and nitrogen sources. This study assessed the growth of P. ostreatus using potato dextrose agar (PDA) supplemented with Waste Human Hair Broth (WHHB). The growth of P.

The use of egg diets and fish meal as a starter diets for Clarias gariepinus fry after endogenous feeding was investigated for 42 days. The experiment was designed to determine the effects of egg diets on growth performance of C. gariepinus. The experimental diets were assigned into three treatments and control.

The study was conducted to investigate the effect of different concentrations of ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) on the growth and yield of two okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench) varieties (V35 and Clemson spineless). The experiment was conducted in the screen house and field at Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike, Abia State. The screen house experiment was set up in a complete randomized design (CRD) with three replications. The field trial was set up in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications.

This study was carried out in the undergraduate project plot of the department of Plant Biology and Biotechnology, University of Benin from March to July 2020, to determine the impact of lead contamination on okra plant. A field experiment was conducted using 4 levels of Pb pollution namely 25, 50, 75, 100 mg/kg and control. Each bag containing 5 kg of air dried sandy loam soil was arranged in a completely randomized design (CRD) with three replicates. Five (05) seeds were sown in each bag. All bags were watered regularly. Plants were thinned down to one per bag after a week of emergence.
