Microbiome Can Be Defined As The Sum

Page(s): 5 (1528 words) Sources: 5 Document #:64994122

Microbiome can be defined as the sum of microbes, their genetic genomes and their environmental interactions in a particular environment. The word Microbiome was inverted by Joshua Lederberg, one of the giants of molecular biology to designate all microbes. He emphasized that microorganisms inhabiting the human body should be included as part of the human genome, reason on the influence……

Weed Control In Commercial Agriculture Using Allelopathy

Page(s): 3 (991 words) Sources: 3 Document #:56704715

Allelopathic Weed Control for Crop ManagementThe term �allelopathy� refers to a biological interaction wherein organisms produce biochemicals that influence the growth and development of other species. Allelopathic processes involve the release of substances, known as allelochemicals, which can either stimulate or impede the growth of neighboring organisms. In agricultural contexts, particularly in crop rotation scenarios, plants exhibiting allelopathic properties generate……
