Conduct agronomic studies for optimization of nutrient requirements of 2-3 released chickpea varieties
Summarizing the effect of rehizobium, location and varieties on the biological and economic responses of chickpea as summarized in the Tables below is inspiring. The results indicated that chickpea yield can be improved ...
Phylogenetic diversity correlated with above‐ground biomass production during forest succession: Evidence from tropical forests in Southeast Asia
1. Enhancing knowledge on the role of evolutionary history during forest succession and its relationship with ecosystem function is particularly relevant in the context of forest landscape restoration for climate change ...
Assessment of millet-groundnut intercropping systems efficiency in Jigawa and Kano states.
In this study, an intercropping experiment consisting of millet and groundnut was established at Dutse (Jigawa) and
Minjibir (Kano) to compare the efficiencies of intercropping systems. Two intercropping systems (2:2 and ...

Erosion processes in steep terrain—Truths, myths, and uncertainties related to forest management in Southeast Asia
To assess the effects of forest management on soil erosion in Southeast Asia, clear distinctions must be made between surface erosion and landslide processes. Although surface erosion is a natural process, it is exacerbated ...
Spatial characterization of colonies of the flying fox bat, a carrier of Nipah Virus in Thailand
A major reservoir of Nipah virus is believed to be the flying fox genus Pteropus, a fruit bat distributed
across many of the world’s tropical and sub-tropical areas. The emergence of the virus and its zoonotic transmission
to ...
