Herbicidal activity of Pennisetum purpureum (Napier grass)

African Journal of Biotechnology, 2012
This study investigates potential herbicidal effects of Pennisetum purpureum extracts on two selected weed bioassay species. Ethyl acetate extract of P. purpureum was able to suppress germination of bioassay species by 41%. Although, it had no phytotoxic activity on the root or shoot growth of bioassay species, it had caused leaf discs of bioassay ...

Molecular and Structural Characterization of Foam Proteins from Mahanarva spectabilis (Distant, 1909) (Hemiptera: Cercopidae) Nymphs Reveals Adaptive Features and Potential Targets for Pest Control

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 121, Issue 2, February 2026.
Nymphs of Mahanarva spectabilis produce a protective foam that supports survival, reduces plant damage, and contributes to adult population establishment. Proteomic profiling combined with protein sequencing and structural modeling revealed foam proteins enriched in functional domains associated with environmental resilience.

Testicular Assessment in a Selected Group of Young Buffaloes Using Doppler Ultrasonography

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 1, January 2026.
Doppler ultrasonography revealed increased peak systolic velocity (PSV) in pubertal buffalo bulls (16–18 months), indicating enhanced arterial perfusion, while other hemodynamic indices remained stable. Age‐related echotextural changes in testicular parenchyma were observed, supporting PSV as an early marker for pubertal onset and breeding soundness in

Effect of Supplemented Spent Mushroom Substrate (Pleurotus ostreatus) on Growth Performance, Nutrient Digestibility, Nitrogen Balance, and Blood Metabolites of Goats

Animal Science Journal, Volume 97, Issue 1, January/December 2026.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the effects of Pleurotus ostreatus spent mushroom substrate (SMS), supplemented with 4% urea and 18% molasses, as a partial replacement for Napier grass. Four dietary treatments were formulated with 70% roughage (Napier grass) and 30% concentrate, replacing Napier grass with SMS at 0%, 20%, 35%, or 50% inclusion levels.
