Toxicological effects of nanoselenium in animals
(BioMed Central Ltd., 2022)
The productivity and sustainability of livestock production systems are heavily influenced by animal nutrition. To maintain homeostatic balance in the body of the animal at different phases of life, the percentage of ...
Caraway (Carum carvi L.) in Fast-growing and Slow-Growing Broiler Chickens' Diets and its Effect on Performance, Digestive Tract Morphology and Blood Biochemical Profile
(Elsevier Science Inc., 2022)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the addition of caraway (1%) in fast-growing and slow-growing broiler chickens' diet and its effect on performance parameters, blood biochemical profile, and relative organ sizes and ...
Is a new generation of mycotoxin clay adsorbents safe in a pig's diet?
(BioMed Central Ltd., 2022)
Background: Bentonites, as a clay mineral, serve in pig farms as adsorbents of toxic substances. They are mainly used to reduce the negative impact of mycotoxins to maintain the performance and health status of animals. ...
Potential effect of wetting agents added to agricultural sprays on the stability of soil aggregates
(Copernicus GmbH, 2022)
A potential effect of adjuvants/wetting agents added to the spray mixture on the water stability of soil aggregates (WSA) in agricultural soil was studied. Nine sites were chosen in the Czech Republic. Each site was mapped ...
Reduced graphene oxide-based nanometal-composite containing copper and silver nanoparticles protect tomato and pepper against Xanthomonas euvesicatoria infection
(Springer International Publishing AG, 2022)
Xanthomonas euvesicatoria (Xe) is of the genera Xanthomonas, which causes a bacterial spot disease that affects tomato and pepper plants, resulting in significant economic losses. Commonly used bactericides lead to pathogen ...
Analysis of Field View from Tractor and Trailer Units Using the Method of Terrestrial Laser Scanning
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2022)
Having a proper view from the cabin of agricultural and forest machines is one of the main factors affecting work safety and efficiency. In forestry, machine operators very often perform working activities also in the rear ...
Response of Winter Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) to Fertilizers with Nitrogen-Transformation Inhibitors and Timing of Their Application under Field Conditions
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2022)
Winter wheat is a widely cultivated crop that requires high inputs of nitrogen (N) fertilization, which is often connected with N losses. The application of fertilizers with nitrification (NI) and urease inhibitors (UI) ...
Biochar Alone Did Not Increase Microbial Activity in Soils from a Temperate Climate That Had Long-Term Acidity Stress
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2022)
Biochar can increase the microbial activity of a soil and the seed yield of oilseed rape. We performed a field experiment to determine the effect of different doses of biochar and the impact of nutrient additions on microbial ...
Interaction of the Nanoparticles and Plants in Selective Growth Stages-Usual Effects and Resulting Impact on Usage Perspectives
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2022)
Nanotechnologies have received tremendous attention since their discovery. The current studies show a high application potential of nanoparticles for plant treatments, where the general properties of nanoparticles such as ...
Quality Attributes of Chitosan-Coated Cornelian Cherry (Cornus mas L.) Fruits under Different Storage Temperatures
(MDPI AG (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute-MDPI), 2021)
Temperature is the dominant environmental stimulus that influences the postharvest quality, visual appearance, and nutritional content of fruits. Temperature hastens fruit ripening and senescence by the impact on respiration ...
