Insecticidal Activity of some Plants Powder on Maize Weevil (Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky) of Stored Maize Grains (Zea mays L)

(bulb), Drimia maritima (L.) Baker (bulb), Erythrina senegalensis (L.) (stem bark), and Khaya senegalensis (Desr.) (stem bark), against maize weevil (Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky) infestation on stored maize (Zea mays L.). The efficacies of the plant powders at four levels of concentration (0.5, 1.0, 2.5, and 5.0 g) on maize weevil (S. zeamais Motschulsky) mortality monitored over 24-, 48-, 72-, and 96-hour intervals were assessed and compared to the industrially formulated insecticide, Coopex (Permethrin 0.5%), using the standard method, respectively. The results obtained revealed that the powdered extract of the four plant species evaluated showed varying degrees of efficacies at certain levels of concentration. The infested maize grain treated with bulb powder of A. sativum (L.) and stem bark powder of K. senegalensis (Desr.) proved to be the most efficacious with recorded lethal doses (LD 50) of 0.07 and 0.08 g, respectively, after 24 hours. Bulb powder of D. maritima (L.) Baker and stem bark powder of E. senegalensis (L.) had an LD 50 of 5.10 and 0.20 g, respectively, after 24 hours. On the strengths of these findings, it is evident that A. sativum (L.) and K. senegalensis (Desr.) are potential plant materials for bio-control of maize weevil (S. zeamais Motschulsky) infestation on stored maize grains.

Identification of the genes LR17 and LR26 for resistance to leaf rust (Puccinia triticina) in some European wheat cultivars

The allelic relationship between the near-isogenic line [RL6008] having Lr17 and the wheat cultivars Hobbit, Fundin and Tara crossed in a diallel without reciprocals and with the susceptible control variety Armada were tested. Progenies of these crosses were tested for reaction to Puccinia triticina isolate WBRP 85- 31 that has avirulence for Lr17 at high temperature. Crosses between RL6008, Hobbit, Fundin and Tara with the susceptible check Armada segregated in 1:2:1 ratio in F3 progenies. It suggests the presence of a single gene for resistance to leaf rust. In addition, the F3 populations of the crosses between Hobbit, Fundin and Tara with line RL6008 were all resistant, thus confirming allelic relationship between Lr17 and the resistance gene in these cultivars. Also crosses were made between cultivar Tara and the susceptible contr...

Expression of the Wheat Leaf Rust Resistance Gene Lr34 alone and in combination with other Leaf Rust Genes against UK isolates of Puccinia triticina

Wheat cultivars and ‘Thatcher’ backcross lines with the resistance gene Lr34 alone and in combina... more Wheat cultivars and ‘Thatcher’ backcross lines with the resistance gene Lr34 alone and in combination with different genes for leaf rust resistance were assessed for their reaction to UK isolates of Puccinia triticina. The experiments were conducted in controlled environments and in the field. The seedlings were grown at 5 and 200C and as adult plants at 12 and 260C. The temperature control was used to identify the Lr34 gene. In the field, all lines and cultivars with Lr34 were resistant to leaf rust. In controlled environments, seedlings with Lr34 alone gave variable infection types (ITs) of ; to 3 at 50C and 2 to 3- at 200C. This indicates that, temperature control is not effective at identifying the Lr34 gene with these UK isolates. Based on similarities of reaction types in the field, the wheat cultivars Pavon 76, Ciano 67, Chris, Era and Marco Juarez Inta were postulated as having the resistance gene Lr34.

These features may be used for the delimitation and determination of pharmaceutical potentials of the accessions. These accessions were found to exhibit high degree of heterogeneity in their trichome features. Nine types of trichomes were observed: unicellular, glandular peltate, capitate glandular, long unbranched uniseriate, short unbranched uniseriate, scale, multicellular, multiseriate capitate glandular and branched uniseriate trichomes. Lale-duk recorded the highest number (six types), four in accessions Ex-Sudan, Adaw-ting (Improved) and Ex-Gombe 1, three in accessions Ex-Gombe 3, Ex-Gombe 4, Ex-Gombe 5 and Ex-Gombe 6, two in kenana 4, Adaw-wula and Adaw-ting. The most frequent trichome type is short-unbranched uniseriate (76.52%), followed by long-unbranched uniseriate (72.73% and scale (65.11%). The least frequent was multiser...

Wheat leaf rust (Puccinia triticina) reactions of hobbit ??sib/bezostaja<br>substitution lines

Seedlings of most lines had low infection types (ITs), except the line with chromosome substitution 7A that had IT 3-. Significant decreases in leaf area infected were observed on substitution lines with chromosomes 2D, 5D and 5BL/7BL, whereas the substitution line with chromosome 1B had a significant increase in the level of infection as compared with that on Hobbit ‘sib’. This provided a means of identifying chromosomes with resistance genes against leaf rust disease that can be transferred to cultivated lines for the control of the disease.

Environmental Impact Assessment and the Law

The results of EIA are, in theory at least, used by government and other decision makers in judging whether to invest in, carry out, or permit proposed projects – such as mines, reservoirs, highways and agricultural schemes. Archaeological sites are parts of the human environment, so archaeologists are often heavily involved in EIA work. In many countries today, far more archaeologists are employed in EIA and related work than hold traditional academic and research postings. EIA pumps far more money into the conduct of archaeological research than do research foundations and institutions. Archaeologists in EIA work as members of interdisciplinary teams, they interact closely with the public, and they often take on responsibilities that go well beyond archaeology. Some become involved in ethnographic work and in consultations with affected communities; some work with historians and architectural historians in assessing the character of buildings, structures, and neighborhoods. EIA archaeologists also work in a very wide range of venues – urban and rural settings, hazardous environments, even underwater. There are two fundamental aspects to EIA-related archaeology. Archaeologists work on the actual assessment of impacts – surveying and otherwise studying areas that will be affected by proposed projects, finding, evaluating, and recording sites, and helping develop recommendations for their management. Then when projects are approved, provisions are usually made for ‘mitigating’ their damaging effects on the environment, and archaeologists are employed to perform research on sites that will be lost. EIA archaeologists are sometimes employed by government ministries or by academic institutions, but many are lodged in for-profit consulting firms. Although in theory the job of such firms is to make objective analyses of environmental impacts, it is inevitable that to some extent they come to represent the interests of the project proponents who often pay for their services. This can create special stresses in the lives of EIA archaeologists. On the other hand, EIA archaeology is engaged archaeology, archaeology that fulfills very direct purposes in the modern world, and its practice can be deeply rewarding. EIA archaeologists are quite often more than archaeologists; they become intermediaries between the interests of modern development and the cultural values of human societies both living and extinct.
