1. DETERMINATION OF PROXIMATE AND MINERAL ANALYSIS OF THE SEED BLACK AFRICAN OLIVE CANNARIUM SCHWINFURTHI LINN

94 Student Researchers

BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

The early man subsisted on wild game, fruits, and luscious herbage, which allowed him to obtain sufficient nourishment and ensured that he would always have food available. There are still a large number of plant species that have not yet been recognised and utilised, despite the fact that some of them have been identified and are being utilised to their maximal potential. Canarium schweinfurthii Linn, often known as black ol...

2. PHYTOCHEMICAL AND ANTIBACTERIAL STUDIES OF Ensete gilletii ROOT EXTRACTS

94 Student Researchers

ABSTRACT

Ensete gilletii commonly called wild banana, is ethno-medicinally used for the treatment of diarrhea, dysentery, typhoid, stomach pain, kidney stone and liver disorders by herbal practitioners. The dried pulverized roots of the plant were subjected to exhaustive, successive soxhlet extraction using petroleum ether, chloroform and methanol. The result revealed that a higher percentage yield was obtained from the methanol extract (MEG). The GC-MS analysis of the petroleum eth...

3. PHENOTYPIC AND GENOTYPIC VARIATIONS IN COWPEA (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) GENOTYPES IN NIGER STATE, NIGERIA

94 Student Researchers

ABSTRACT

Cowpea production is faced with a number of constraints which results into low grain and fodder yields. The study was carried out to determine variation in yield with its component traits in different cowpea accessions. Twenty genotypes of Cowpea were evaluated in two locations (Minna and Kontagora) in a randomized completely block design (RCBD) and replicated three times. Some of the parameters that were collected include plant height at first branching, number of branches...

4. SCREENING OF SOME COMMON WEEDS FOR NEMATICIDAL ACTIVITIES AGAINST THE ROOT-KNOT NEMATODE INFESTATION ON TOMATO (LYCOPERSICUM ESCULENTUM L.) IN PLATEAU STATE, NIGERIA.

94 Student Researchers

ABSTRACT

The screening of some common weeds for nematicidal activities on Meloidogyne incognita infestation on tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum L.) was carried out at the Botanical nursery and Biology Laboratory, Plateau State Polytechnic, Barkin ladi, Nigeria, with a view to establishing their potential for organic amendment or as trap weeds for the control of Meloidogyne incognita. The common weeds were surveyed and identified by a taxonomist based on botanical nomenclature and vou...

5. MOLECULAR AND PHYLOGENETIC DIVERSITY STUDIES OF SOME ACHA (Digitaria spp.)LANDRACES OF THE JOS PLATEAU AND ITS ENVIRONMENTS

94 Student Researchers

ABSTRACT

The evaluation of the molecular and phylogenetic diversity ofAcha (Digitaria spp.) landraces of the Jos plateau and its environs, was carried out between 2012, 2013 and 2014.The phenotypic and genotypic characters of the different accessions showed that variability due to effect was more in genotype had more variability in genetic diversity for the morphological traits.Thirty accessions were collected from Tafawa Balewa Local Government Area(LGA) of Bauchi State; six LGAs o...

6. EPIDEMIOLOGICAL STUDIES ON SOME MICROBIAL AND PARASITIC INFECTIONS OF NOMADIC FULANI HERDSMEN IN EBONYI STATE, NIGERIA

94 Student Researchers

Abstract

Over the years, nomadic Fulani herdsmen have established different settlement camps outside the traditional villages of their indigenous host communities in Ebonyi State. With increasing concerns about the health condition of the nomads, this study was undertaken to investigate the prevalence and distribution of some microbial and parasitic infections amongst the spartially distributed population of the nomadic Fulani herdsmen in Ebonyi State. This investigation was carried...

7. NEMATICIDAL EFFICACY OF SOIL FUNGAL ISOLATES AGAINSTTHEROOT-KNOT NEMATODE (Meloidogyne incognita) OF TOMATO

94 Student Researchers

ABSTRACT The root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) is one of the plant parasitic nematodesthat causes serious economic damage on tomato plant. Due to loss of effectiveness andenvironmental hazard of chemical nematicide, the search for new agents of control hasbecome paramount. Therefore, nematicidal efficacy of soil fungal isolates on secondstagejuvenile of Meloidogyne incognita was carried out. Soil samples for the isolationof fungi and nematode were collected from botanical garden and...
