Opis:
The maize weevil, Sitophilus zeamais (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is one of the major pest infesting stored grains world wide. Experiments were conducted to study the efficacies of D. regia oils on mortality and adult emergence of S. zeamais Motschulsky. The long time storage and viability of the treated maize grains were also investigated. Results obtained showed that D. regia oil at every concentration was lethal on S. zeamais. At 1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0% concentration, there was 100% mortality of S. zeamais at 96 h of exposure. The least potent extract was 0.5% concentration. The extracts drastically reduced adult emergence to 0.0% in grains treated with 1.5% and 2.0% oil extracts concentration. Grains treated with 1.0%, 1.5% and 2.0% D. regia seed oil completely prevented infestation and subsequence damage of the treated maize grains for a period of three Months. Thereafter, 20.04% damage was observed in grains treated with 0.5% oil extract. The oil extracts at all concentrations in this experiment hardly affected germination as there was no significant difference between percentage germination in the treated grains and the control. The results obtained reveal that oil extracts of D, regia seeds are effective in controlling S. zeamais and could serve as alternative to the controversial convectional chemical insecticides

Opis:
The Nigeria cattle breeds and their productivity were reviewed. A case was made for their conservation and management, an action plan was also proposed for the Nigerian government. The indigenous cattle breeds of Nigeria have short calving interval, are hardy and trypanotolerant, known for early maturity with low mortality rate for total herd (2% and 4.7% for Muturu and Keteku respectively). The Kuri has high potentials for milk production and can calve up to twelve times in life time. They also have enormous contribution to source of income to many cattle rearers in Nigeria. The indigenous cattle breeds of Nigeria are endangered. The Muturu, N’dama and Keteku are endangered due to extensive uncontrolled crossbreeding with exotic breeds. There is also waning interest among farmers in the use of intact indigenous breeds. The Kuri and Biu cattle breeds are endangered due primarily to environment factors. The civil war also had a significant effect on the elimination of some indigenous cattle breeds especially the forest breeds. The endangered indigenous cattle breed can be conserved by the In-situ techniques. The cost of maintenance of the insitu preservation is often high, but it is to be preferred because it is less technically involving and can be well manage given adequate technologies and funds. The inbreeding effect and maintenance of natural habitat can be reduce by use of appropriate mating system and preservation of the original environment. The live conservation techniques can be organise into park with wild life for revenue generation. Rural farming communities can also be organize to form National indigenous cattle breed ownership Scheme (NICABROS), as a community based conservation management technology are action plans that are propose for insitu conservation of Nigerian endangered cattle breeds.

Opis:
This work is presented as a further study to our previous work, “Thermal performance analysis of a natural convection porous fin with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and internal heat" published in "Thermal Science and Engineering Progress. 1 (2017) 39–52”, where it was assumed that the surface convection is negligible and heat is transferred only by natural convection in the porous fin. In this present study, such an assumption has been relaxed. Also, effects of surface convective heat transfer on the thermal performance of porous fin with temperature-dependent thermal conductivity and internal heat generation have been investigated using Galerkin’s method of weighted residual. The results of the Galerkin’s method of weighted residual show excellent agreement with the results of numerical method using shooting method coupled with Runge-Kutta method and also with the results of homotopy perturbation method. Thereafter, the developed analytical solutions are used to investigate the influences of the thermal model parameters on the thermal performance of the porous fin. It is found as the with the other model parameters that as the convective parameter increases, the rate of heat transfer from the base of the fin increases and consequently, the porous fin efficiency improves. However, increase in the nonlinear thermal conductivity parameter decreases the temperature distribution in the fin. Based on the high accuracy of the Galerkin’s method of weighted residual as displayed in this work, it is hoped that the simple analytical solutions given by the approximate analytical method will enhance the analysis of extended surfaces and also assist the designers.

The study was conducted at Akpehe poultry farm, Makurdi. The objectives of the study were to assess the additive genetic effects of dam-sire, dam and maternal effects on clutch traits with the aim to apply these to selection and breeding in order to improve these traits.120 birds were used for the study, 60 each for the Fulani and the Tiv ecotypes. The birds were housed singly in identified cages and hand mated in the pen. Data were collected on clutch size, clutch number, pause length and number, month, sire, dam and ecotype. Ecotype significantly affected clutch size and clutch number. Pause length and number were not affected by ecotype. The additive genetic effect of the sire and dam significantly affected clutch size and clutch number. Heritability estimates due to sire on pulse length and pulse number were very low, while the heritability estimates for clutch number and clutch size were moderate. Non additive genetic effect of the dam ,other maternal environment as well as month significantly affected clutch number, pause length and number. Selecting superior birds based on clutch size and number due moderate heritability estimates will lead to genetic improvement in egg number especially when dam conditions and management employed are improved.

The study of dynamic behavior of functional graded circular plates has gained significant attention in engineering in recent time due to the vast application of the material in engineering and manufacturing industry. This study focus on the application of two-dimensional differential transform method to investigate the dynamic response of functional graded circular plates resting on two-parameter elastic foundations. However, the maximum deflection is obtained using dimensionless scheme, Laplace-Padè approximant is used to treat the small domain issue of the analytical solutions. Also, the solutions obtained are used for parametric investigation. From the results, it is found out that increase in Winkler, Pasternak and combine foundation parameters results to decrease in maximum deflection, increase in material properties of the functional graded plates leads to decrease in maximum deflection, clamped boundary condition has the lower deflection. Increasing the excitation frequency results in lower deflection. Results obtained maybe used as benchmark for validation of method using other approaches.

Investigation on thermal responses of different materials subjected to variant environmental condition has been a subject of ever-increasing research interest for decades. As such, research studies have shown different materials exhibiting peculiar characteristics of commercially used heat enhancement devices. Therefore, this work presents an investigation on thermal behaviour of a convective porous moving fins with temperature dependent thermal conductivity for five different materials. These materials include copper, Aluminium, Silicon nitride, Silicon carbide and Stainless steel. A hybrid method, viz- Laplace-variational iterative method (LVIM) is used to solve the model equation developed. And a perfect agreement is achieved when the result obtained from LVIM is verified with the exact solution. The result obtained shows that silicon carbide compete favourably with copper as the most efficient material in heat enhancement, while stainless steel shows the least performance. It is hoped that this work will serve as a template and a helpful tool for both scientist and engineers’ in future design of fins.

Opis:
One of the classical features exhibited in nonlinear dynamics of engineering systems is the jump phenomenon, which is the discontinuous change in the steady state response of a system as a parameter is slowly varied. Such phenomenon is characterized by large amplitude dynamic responses of systems to small amplitude disturbances. It is established that this phenomenon cannot be described by the standard asymptotic and perturbation methods because they are limited to the study of small amplitude responses to small disturbances. Therefore, this paper presents the application of differential transformation method-Padé approximant to the solution of jump and bifurcation phenomena for a geometrical nonlinear cantilever beam subjected to a harmonic excitation. The accuracy and validity of the analytical solutions obtained by the differential transformation method are shown through a comparison of the results of the analytical solution with the corresponding results of the numerical solution obtained by fourth-order Runge-Kutta method and also with the results in a past study using harmonic balancing method. With the aid of the differential transformation method-Padé approximant, the effects of the nonlinear parameters in the model equation on the dynamic response of the beam are investigated. Also, the sensitivity of the beam to the external excitation amplitude is analyzed. In the distributed forced vibration, the jump phenomenon appeared in the response amplitude by variation of the excitation frequency while in the resonance frequency, the beat phenomenon with harmonic motion is seen for low level of excitation amplitude. At a certain frequency, the jump and bifurcation phenomena are seen in the curves of responses versus excitation amplitude. Additionally, the plots of the phase plane and time history of the system response are shown. It is established that the differential transformation method is a very useful mathematical tool for dealing with the nonlinear problems.

Opis:
Lassa fever is an acute viral disease that is endemic in West African countries of Nigeria, Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea. Since the first case was reported in Lassa town Nigeria in 1969, Mali 2009, Ghana in late 2011 and serological evidences of the virus was reported in Togo and Benin in 2014 the virus has assumed an endemic proportion in West Africa. Deforestation which is the deliberate disruption of the natural forest ecosystem has been implicated as a major cause of the virus holding to the fact that the natural habitats of the rodent host have been tampered and hence they seek refuge in human homes. Most research work have been centered on the epidemiology ,hygiene and mode of transmission of the zoonotic virus without critical consideration of habitat destruction of this rodents that negate their relocation to human homes in search of food and alternative shelter. This review article aims to raise awareness on the urgent need to control deforestation acts in order to prevent further outbreak of Lassa fever.

Plenty of studies have been introduced to clarify the localization problem and there are many prescriptions given in gravitational theories such as the general relativity (GR henceforth) and teleparallel gravity (TG henceforth) to deal with this issue. In a recent work, the energy-momentum localization problem has been extended to a modified theory of gravity. In the present work, we calculate energy density associated with the Reboucas-Tiomno-Korotkii-Obukhov (RTKO henceforth) spacetime by making use of the modified gravity version of Landau-Lifshitz (mLL henceforth) formulation. Also, we consider some viable f(T)-gravity proposals.

Opis:
Recent astrophysical observations show that the universe has entered a late-time accelerated expansion period. It is commonly accepted that the dark energy is responsible for this enigmatic behavior of our universe, because it makes up about 70 percent of the content of our universe and dominates over the matter part. Therefore, the dark energy will govern the speedy enlargement and determine the fate of our universe. Another interpretation of the dark energy is that this is a new kind of dynamical field or fluid, something mysterious which fills all of space but something whose influence on the accelerated enlargement nature of our universe is the opposite of that of baryonic matter and ordinary energy. Here, we focus on the polytropic gas unified dark matter-energy model in a 5-dimensional cosmology to reconstruct tachyonic scalar field proposal of the dark energy. It is known that the background dynamics of the polytropic gas is equivalent to that one for the dark energy interacting with the dark matter. On the other hand, using scalar field is one of the most significant methods helping us to understand the dark universe. There are many scalar field proposals, but generally it is hard to get exact relations for the scalar field function and its self-interacting potential. In this work, making use of the 5-dimensional Polytropic gas model, we calculate exact relations for the tachyonic scalar field. After that, we discuss our theoretical calculations graphically in order to interpret our theoretical results in a different way.

Opis:
Declining soil fertility is one of the main causes of low yields of maize. Farmers apply low rates of unbalanced nutrients leading to further nutrient mining. A randomized complete block nutrient omission trial with six replications was therefore set to determine maize response to the application of a wide range of nutrients from inorganic fertilizers on Ferralsols. The treatments were NK, NP, PK, NPK, and NPK + CaMgZnBS. The results showed that application of PK fertilizer resulted in low crop growth rate (CGR), and relative growth rate (RGR), and biomass compared to other treatments. Application of a wider range of nutrients (NPK + CaMgZnBS treatment) improved maize growth and yield compared to other treatments. In terms of grain response, Urea application recorded the highest yield (1800 kg/ha) followed by Triple Superphosphate (1300 kg/ha) then Muriate of potash (1100 kg/ha) and least by a combined application of secondary nutrients and micronutrients (ZnBMgCaS = 400 kg/ha). Highest agronomic efficiency of 32.5 kg grain /kg P applied was recorded due to P followed by K (27.5 kg grain /kg K) and least by N (15 kg grain /kg N). Based on the combined effect, application of N-P-K based fertilizers could give better yields. Use of micronutrients should be assessed further for conclusive recommendations.

Potato is one of the most important food crops with a capacity to abate hunger among farmers in the region. However, its productivity has stagnated and remained low due to poor agronomic practices applied by smallholder farmers. To avert this situation, dissemination through training of already existing better technologies and practices should be prioritized. A lot of research has been done with better recommendations- use of disease-free tuber seeds from high yielding and tolerant varieties, adequate application of balanced nutrients, timely scouting and integrated management of pests and diseases and good harvesting practices are available for immediate adoption. The adoption and dissemination could be facilitated by currently existing policies that promote cross-border movement and diffusion of research technologies and new varieties.

Opis:
A field experiment was conducted from July to October, in years 2014 and 2015 at the Research Farm, University of Agriculture, Makurdi, Nigeria, to evaluate the yield response of maize-sesame intercrop as influenced by planting densities of sesame and varieties of sesame, as well as to assess the yield advantages of the intercropping system. The factorial (3 x 3) combinations of the treatments were randomly arranged in a split-plot design, with four replications. The varieties of sesame (Ex Sudan, SN 603 and E-8) into maize constituted the main plots, while the planting densities of sesame (66,666, 88,888 and 133,333 plants ha-1 equivalent) into maize were assigned to the subplots. Results of study showed that intercropping maize with sesame variety ‘Ex Sudan’ produced the highest grain yield for maize and highest seed yield of 0.45 t ha-1 and 0.33 t ha-1 respectively, in years 2014 and 2015 for sesame. Sesame sown into maize at the density of 66,666 plants ha-1 produced the highest maize yield of 3.6 t ha-1 and 3.8 t ha-1 respectively, in years 2014 and 2015 and highest sesame yields in both years. Intercropping sesame variety ‘Ex Sudan’ into maize at the density of 66,666 plants ha-1 also gave the highest total intercrop yields, highest land equivalent coefficient (LEC) values, highest land equivalent ratio (LER) values of 1.83 and 1.80, highest percentage (%) land saved, lowest competitive ratio and lowest aggressivity. The implication of study showed that it is most advantageous having both crops in intercrop when sesame variety ‘Ex Sudan’ was sown into maize at the density of 66,666 plants ha-1. This should therefore be recommended for Makurdi location, Nigeria.

The study was conducted to determine the influence of different methods of fertilizer application on the growth of maize (Zea mays L.) at the Teaching and Research Farm, Faculty of Agriculture and Forestry, Cross River University of Technology. Maize seed variety Ikom Local White were treated to one level of NPK (15:15:15) fertilizer (0.128 kg ha-1) and four methods of fertilizer application (Broadcasting, Ring Application, Hole Application and Liquid Application). The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD). The treatments were replicated four times to give a total of sixteen field plots. The result obtained indicated that NPK (15:15:15) significantly (p< 0.05) increase growth parameters (plant height and number of leaves) of maize obtained at 0.128 kg ha-1 and Ring method of application seems appropriate for maize production at 1 m spacing between plants on bed.
