Five postharvest fungi of pepper fruits namely Aspergillus niger, A. fumigatus Colletotrichum capsici, C. trumcatum and Fusarium solani were tested for their population responses to gamma irradiation. These fungi were irradiated at dose 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8KGy at a dose rate of 1.08KGy/hour. Stumbo equation was used in generating D10 values of the organisms. The fungi were inoculated on the pepper fruits for 8 days and their biochemical/physiochemical properties (pH, total ascorbic acid, total titratable acidity and soluble solids) and physiological weight loss were assessed. Complete randomized block design was employed. GenStat 12th edition was used with one- and two-way Anova for D10 values and biochemical parameters respectively. The D10 values ranged from 0.714 to 0.995 KGy with Fusarium solani being the most radio resistant whereas Colletotrichum species were also more susceptible to the lethal effect of gamma irradiation. Generally, fungi inoculated pepper fruits had higher biochemical values compared to the control samples. Gamma irradiation decontaminated fresh pepper fruits of their bioburden thereby extending their postharvest life since these fungi when present are either pathogenic or saprophytic to the pepper fruits. Deteriorating activities of fungi also have adverse effect on the physiochemical properties of pepper fruits.","PeriodicalId":272222,"journal":{"name":"New Visions in Biological Science Vol. 2","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116976200","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 simulations carried out for the implantation of five extractivist units sought to minimize the time spent displacing between the demand points (communities) and the facilities (extractive units) and contemplated the Municipalities of Lontra, Mirabela, Januaria, Japonvar, Chapada Gaucha and Brasilia de Minas. It was verified that with the increase in the number of storage, processing and distribution units for pequi extractivism, the total time of displacement in relation to the extractivist communities is reduced, which consequently reduces transportation costs, the implementation of five extractive units the most advantageous simulation.","PeriodicalId":272222,"journal":{"name":"New Visions in Biological Science Vol. 2","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122169634","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}

It's a fruit-bearing plant having biological, medical, and social value. Knowing how natural populations' genetic variability is arranged enables for the development of conservation and sustainable use plans for the species and its environment. Interest in genetic studies of natural populations that combine evolutionary biology and ecology has increased in recent years. This work aims to assess how natural populations of Anacardium humile, an important tropical shrub species native to the Cerrado biome, are genetically structured. Based on investigations of 242 adult plants, six microsatellite loci previously identified from Anacardium occidentale were utilised to evaluate the regional genetic organisation and genetic diversity of eight natural Anacardium humile populations. These communities have a high level of genetic variety (expected heterozygozygosity He = 0.710), according to the findings. With a mean of 0.142 (p = 0.001), the endogamy coefficient was positive and significant for most populations. Although the genetic divergence between groups was small ((theta) = 0.075 and GST = 0.066), it was significant (p = 0.0001). The results show that genetic conservation measures for A. humile populations should be undertaken in order to keep this species alive.","PeriodicalId":272222,"journal":{"name":"New Visions in Biological Science Vol. 2","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134115462","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}

Sound absorption coefficients are often tested with expensive tools and absorption coefficients are calculated. The current study uses an impedance tube, function generator, standard audio amplifier, omnidirectional microphone, and oscilloscope to calculate sound absorption ratios of leaves from several tree species. In a closed system, a sound absorption ratio was developed to evaluate sound absorption on a relative scale. Sabine's formula was used to compute the sound absorption ratio, and the absorption ratio was calculated. When the sound absorption ratio approaches unity, it implies that the sound absorption capacity is poor. The sound absorption ratio of different tree species' leaves was investigated for different frequencies. Observations were done using an oscilloscope connected to a long impedance tube and a speaker. A range of 500Hz–1000Hz was chosen as the operating frequency for reverberation testing and sound absorption testing when constructing the tube. The leaves of several plant species showed varying absorption at different frequencies. It was observed that leaves of Barringtonia acutangula Goerb, Eucalyptus globulus Labill, Ficus benghalensis L, Ficus glomerata Roxb, Ficus religiosa L, Mangifera indica L, Polyatlhia longifolia Thev, Sterculia urens L and Thespesia populnea Soland are good at sound absorption. The method is relatively inexpensive and easy to use to measure sound absorption of foliar surfaces.","PeriodicalId":272222,"journal":{"name":"New Visions in Biological Science Vol. 2","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131902441","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}

This makes the selection for milk yield potentials in favour of these traits difficult. The objectives of this study were to estimate the relationship between average milk yield (AvMY) and morphological traits (MT) and determine the best MT predictor of average milk yield in dual-purpose cows of the hot-humid environment in Ashanti Region of Ghana. Three hundred and eighty-four (384) cows were purposively selected to measure the association between AvMY and MT in 20 farms from April 2015 to July 2017. Analysis of data revealed that phenotypic correlations between AvMY and MT (i.e., head length, horn length, horn tip spacing, and muzzle circumference) were low (0.14 to 0.24), whilst that of heart girth, ear length, tail length and pelvic width were medium (0.34 to 0.46). High correlations were observed among AvMY, body length, body height at withers, height at rump, hock circumference, and fore/hind-shank length and circumference (0.50 to 0.84). The best predictor of AvMY was the hind-shank circumference, followed by the fore-shank circumference, hind-shank length, fore-shank length, and hock circumference in descending order. It was concluded that there was an association between AvMY and MT. Breeders and producers should consider fore- and hind-shank circumference and length when selecting for improvement in AvMY potential.","PeriodicalId":272222,"journal":{"name":"New Visions in Biological Science Vol. 2","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127431488","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}
