Gicheru","doi":"10.9734/ajaar/2024/v24i8531","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.9734/ajaar/2024/v24i8531","url":null,"abstract":"Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a global viral infection that causes vesicular lesions in and around the mouth and feet, causing reluctance of animals to eat or move. In Kenya, bulls raised for AI receive vaccinations against FMD, but it is unclear if these animals experience vaccine-induced immunity. No research has been conducted to determine if animals in endemic areas develop natural immunity or whether animals in disease-free regions might be seropositive. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and levels of foot and mouth disease virus infection-triggered and vaccine-induced antibodies. A cross-sectional study was conducted on bulls farmed for AI production and vaccinated against FMD. Antibodies were quantified using a virus-neutralization test. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the Kruskal-Wallis test with Tukey and Dunn post-tests, respectively, were used to examine the data using the GraphPad InStat program. Additionally, the Spearman test was employed for correlation analysis and the t-test for intergroup differences analysis. A statistically significant P value was defined as less than 0.05. Findings showed protective antibody levels were present in 23%, 10.3%, 2.6%, and 7.7% of the animals in the FMD non-endemic region against the FMD virus strains O, A, SAT 1, and SAT 2, respectively. The protection provided by the O strain virus was significantly greater than that of SAT 1 (P = 0.01). In the FMD endemic area, all sampled animals showed protection levels at 100%, 100%, 100% and 29% for virus strains O, A, SAT 1, and SAT 2 respectively with the antibody titres showing significant differences (P < 0.05) for all the intergroup analysis except between strains O vs SAT 1 and A vs SAT 1 (P > 0.05). To conclude, the current research suggests that FMD may be making a comeback in the areas where the illness is not established. Furthermore, it seems that sperm recovery upon freezing is somewhat mitigated by FMDV-specific antibodies. The study advises monitoring FMD in areas where the illness is not endemic and confirms the current findings with larger sample sizes to enable more informed decision-making.","PeriodicalId":102073,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Advances in Agricultural Research","volume":"2 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141817177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The survey was conducted from February to March 2022. \u0000Methodology: In total, 113 farmers and 43 different paddy and rice traders’ data were collected from two villages in Brahmanbaria. In addition, data was also collected from 179 farmers in six villages and 23 different types of paddy and rice traders in Habiganj district. The data was tabulated and entered in SPSS 18 and MS Excel to calculate descriptive statistics. \u0000Results: The study revealed that in the indigenous paddy/rice marketing channel, Faria and LPA/Bepari were both very active actors. Over time, Faria’s business vanished in the 2nd stage, and LPA/Bepari has become the dominant actor, as about 64.3% of paddy is traded through them. In the 3rd stage, LPA/Bepari’s business has decreased, and LPB/Paddy Aratdar has become a dominant actor as about 68.9% of paddy is traded through them. In the 3rd stage, Paddy Aratdar cum Wholesaler has vanished from the paddy/rice marketing channel. Due to intense competition among paddy and rice traders, changes in their functions and marketing power in the paddy and rice markets, the development of infrastructure, and the enlarging of farmers’ facility conditions are the main reasons for the change. \u0000Conclusion: Therefore, infrastructure and farmer facility condition enhancement need to be extended for future paddy/rice marketing structure improvement.","PeriodicalId":102073,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Advances in Agricultural Research","volume":"111 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141820604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The offspring combines genetic information from each of its parents and is genetically unique. Insects reproduce through both sexual and asexual reproduction, ensuring rapid population increase. Sexual reproduction involves the use gametes from both male and female insects, whilst asexual reproduction permits solitary creatures to lead to genetically identical progeny. Reproductive ecology deals with the study of how physiological characteristics, behavioral, and environmental elements impact on insect reproduction. The complexity of insect reproduction is focused by important processes known as vitellogenesis, which is required for egg development and transgenerational immunity. The i5k initiative planned to sequence more than 5,000 insect genomes to increase our understanding, yet challenges remain due to genome assembly issues and budgetary limitations. Understanding the reproductive morphology and methods of insects, as well as oviposition-related genes, is critical for effective pest management and biological control measures. Insect reproductive research contributes immensely to evolutionary biology, conservation, and agricultural productivity by understanding life cycles, reproductive behaviors, and pollination roles. Insect neurobiology, microbiome and environmental entomology are three most important study fields that will come up with new insights into basic biological processes as well as anticipated pest management and conservation measures in the face of environmental changes in the coming future.","PeriodicalId":102073,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Advances in Agricultural Research","volume":"119 38","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141822261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The selection of good preferred varieties results in optimum output. The study assessed the gender roles in improved cowpea variety production and its selection among farmers in Kano State, Nigeria. A multi-stage sampling technique was used to select six (6) Local Government Areas (LGAs) from the three (3) Agricultural Development Programme (ADP) zones in the state. 204 farmers were selected across the six LGAs. The Harvard Analytical Framework and questionnaire were used to collect the data, and descriptive statistics were also used to analyse it. The results from the study revealed that the majority (63%) of adult males are the key actors in all cowpea farm activities, with the exception of the processing of farm products, which is being carried out mainly by the majority (76.6%) of adult females with the assistance of the female youth in the household. Females handled the majority of the income-generating tasks, such as petty trading and the sale of processed cowpea products. Adult males in the study area had more access to and control over the available production resources than adult females, and almost all the respondents benefited from the resources, such as food items, clothing, education, etc. The result further indicated that the constraints faced by both male and female farmers were inadequate training on improved agronomic practices and no proper information on the cowpea varieties. Conclusively, adult males performed most of the cowpea production and selection activities, and females were responsible for the income-generating activities. Therefore, farmers should be adequately trained on the improved cowpea production practices and females be encourage to participate actively in cowpea production activities.","PeriodicalId":102073,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Advances in Agricultural Research","volume":" 55","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141374899","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
