A significant difference (p = 0.05) was revealed between the formulation (T1) and the control (T0) in the field on the seed germination rate of okra varieties Clemson spineless (V1) (83.3 vs 94.4%; 88.8 vs 100%; 77.7 vs 88.8%) and Hire (V2) (77.7 vs 94.4%; 88.8 vs 100%; 83.3 vs 88.8%) in agroecological areas V, III and IV respectively. The same effect observed on plant health with bioformulation was significant compared with the control in terms of protection against cercosporiosis pathogens. The protection ranges according to treatment and control for the two okra varieties in agroecological areas V, III and IV were 79.24 vs. 86.48%; 100 vs. 100%; 77.76 vs. 91.82% for variety V1 and 88.88 vs. 94.44%; 94.44 vs. 100%; 83.33 vs. 94.44% for variety V2. Gas chromatography combined with mass spectrometry revealed an overproduction of bioactive molecules in the hydro-methanolic extracts of okra leaves treated with the formulation, which are responsible for its bioprotection in the three agroecological areas. In conclusion, the use of the Trichoderma harzianum and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens formulation on okra crops significantly induced germination and systemic resistance of Abelmoschus esculentus plants against cercosporiosis agents.","PeriodicalId":15023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135199436","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}

To do this, the phytochemical study was carried out in order to determine the main chemical constituents with therapeutic potential, then the acute toxicity by gavage and intraperitoneal injection were carried out and finally the anti-inflammatory activity was verified.\u0000The phytochemical study revealed the presence of sterols, polyterpenes, polyphenols, flavonoids, catechic tannins, saponosides and alkaloids. As for the toxicity study, it allowed us to determine by per os route an LD50 > 5000 mg/kg PC, and by IP an LD50 = 524, 807 mg/kg PC graphically and by calculation an LD50 = 400 mg/kg PC. The anti-inflammatory activity of the aqueous extract of Cassia sieberiana at a dose of 200 mg/kg CP is higher than that of diclofenac at a dose of 10 mg/kg CP from the 3rd to the 6th hour of the experiment.

The fieldwork was carried out in humid period on two study sites: 1– rubber landscape (secondary forest, 7-, 12- and 25-year-old rubber plantations) and 2– oil palm landscape (secondary forest, 13-, 20- and 39-year-old oil palm plantations). Three sampling stands were established in each land-use type and age class, for a total of 24 sampling stands. On each sampling stands, soil cores for Gamasid mite’s extraction were taken at 10 cm soil depth through a 40–50 m transect. Our findings highlighted a drop of mesostigmatid mites’ density (–49% and –52%), species richness (–41% and –40%), and diversity (–35% and –49%), respectively after conversion of the secondary forests into rubber and oil palm plantations. The soil with clayey sandy and clayey textures favored the development of the mesostigmatid mites, particularly in the abundance and species richness of Uropodina. However, the soil with sandy clayey textures improved the abundance and species richness of Gamasina. The mesostigmatid mites’ community was degraded in sandy-textured soils. In light of the Maturity Index values, a better quality of soil and environment was detected in the secondary forests compared to plantations. The results also suggest that the mesostigmatid mites’ community influence the soil nutrients and probably plant productivity indirectly by influencing the populations of their prey.","PeriodicalId":15023,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74901699","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}

Blood samples were collected in Jacqueville and Tiassalé. The different haematological parameters were identified by an automated haematological analyser. The coefficient of determination (R2) was determined to show the proportion of variation in parasite density and each haematological parameter. A total of 69 patients were sampled. A negative correlation was observed between parasite density and haemoglobin in the general population, in Jacqueville and in Tiassalé. However, this correlation is significant in the general population (p1 = 0.046; Confidence Interval (CI= [-0.0047; -0.00010]) with a correlation intensity (r) different from zero (p2 = 0.05) and in Jacqueville (p1 = 0. 041; CI= [-0.0025; -0.00012]) with a correlation intensity (r) different from zero (p2 = 0.04).

For achieve this goal, it was a question of studying the different stages of development of the black soldier fly and also studying the evolution of its growth parameters. The flies were captured, kept in an aviary and observed from the fly stage to the end of the pupal stage (emergence of the first flies). Data on the duration of the different stages of development and the evolution of larval growth parameters (average weight, length, width, Fulton index, length/width ratio, survival and mortality rate of larvae) have been taken. This study revealed that the life cycle of Hermetia illucens is between 31 and 43 days, with an incubation time of eggs that lasts 2 days, a larval phase of 14 days, a pupation of 10 days and a duration of adult life of 8 days on average.

Most respondents had tertiary education (65.25%) and were majorly civil servants (27%) and businessmen (22.25%). A greater percentage of the respondents (63.75%) never heard of GMPs prior to this research. It was grossly observed that most of the respondents had various fears and concerns about GMPs.
