Abstract:

<strong>Abstract </strong> Weed interference reduces garden egg productivity. Most farmers adopt highly labor-intensive and expensive manual weeding. Employing herbicides reduces manual labor requirements but herbicides known for garden egg productivity are few. The main objectives of the experiment are to assess the weed control usefulness of pendimethalin in garden egg production and assess the concentration effect on herbicide efficacy. Treatments involved were pendimethalin application at 1.0 and 2.0 kg a.i./ha, hand-weeded and un-weeded controls. Weed biomass, weed control efficacy (WCE)

Breakfast cereal was formulated from malted quality protein maize fortified with cowpea and garden egg with the view to producing a breakfast cereal of high nutrient density. The biomaterials were processed using standard methods to flour samples and blended at various ratios. The blended samples were pregelatinized, flaked, toasted and packaged. The flour and products were analysed for proximate, minerals, anti-nutrients, amino acids profile and dietary fibre using standard methods. The results showed that, as more garden egg was added, protein (9.94 – 10.67 %), fat (4.84 – 6.12 %) and fibre

Abstract:

Garden egg, popularly known as eggplant, is one of the strange and enigmatic vegetable plants that can energize and heal the body as well as the spirit. It is a manifestation of the wonders of God’s creation and magnanimity. As recorded in the holy books, God made man and woman and told them to eat vegetables to keep their bodies and spirits healthy and together. Garden egg is one fruit that is highly acceptable and valued when offered to visitors. In Akabo, South eastern Nigeria, there is a practice called "Ofe", which translates to "garden eggplant mystics". It is a significant mystical prac

Abstract Garden eggs are an important vegetable, but often yield poorly due to soil fertility depletion. Biochar has gained interest in mitigating nutrient loss, while arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) reportedly enhance plant nutrition. However, limited information exists on garden egg responses to biochar application and their interactions with mycorrhizal inoculation. Therefore, the effects of biochar and AMF inoculation on garden egg performance were investigated.

<strong>Abstract </strong> Weed competition lessens garden egg yields. The commonest method of weed control is manual weeding which is connected with drudgery and high cost. Farmers are resorting to the use of herbicides to reduce the high cost and drudgery associated with manual weeding; but very few herbicides are labelled for eggplant production. Butachor has been useful for weed management in some vegetables like okra. The experiment was therefore set up to investigate the suitability of butachlor for weed management in garden egg.

The aim of this work was to investigate the level of enteric helminthes ova contamination on ready to eat selected vegetables in Ushongo Government of Benue state. The sampling locations comprised of three major markets: Ikyobo, Lobi and Lessel markets. A total of 270 samples were collected, 90 samples in each market (30 carrots, 30 garden egg and 30 cucumber). The samples were transported aseptically to the laboratory for egg analysis using centrifugation, microscopy and standard identification guide. Carrot was the most contaminated vegetable with a total of 63 contaminated samples out of 90

The transgenerational effect of maternal diet, expressed as variation in the composition and quantity of egg nutrients available to offspring during endogenous development (i.e., prior to free-feeding), has the potential to greatly influence the response of offspring phenotypes to varying environmental conditions.

In urban community gardens, cultivated vegetation provides variable levels of habitat complexity, which can suppress pests by promoting predator diversity and improving pest control. In this study, we examine three components of the structural complexity of garden vegetation (cover, diversity, and connectivity) to investigate whether higher garden vegetation complexity leads to fewer herbivores, more predators, and higher predation. We worked in eight community gardens where we quantified vegetation complexity, sampled the arthropod community, and measured predation on corn earworm eggs. We fo
