Plant pathogens and diseases

Diseases affect both human and animal populations. The epidemic is worse in a wildlife case scenario. This is because the animals are scattered in the wild. It is hard to account for the infected animals. Furthermore, it is even harder to avail treatment to the infected animals. Wildlife is very important to our ecosystem. Besides, they are a tourist attraction. Therefore, wildlife must be protected from extinction. Australia continent is very famous for koalas. Koalas are very…

INTRODUCTION I had always wanted to be part of Science Olympiad since I heard from my friends that it was being made in Yonkers High school. I couldn’t contain my excitement and could not wait until clubs started having their meetings. I decided I wanted to take part in Robotics, Historical Society, and in Science Olympiad. Science was my main interest ever since I was young, and I knew that whatever job I was doing in the future would involve science in some way, shape, or form. I really do…

cell Chromosome c. Filaments of DNA and protein Chloroplast (Plastids) d. Sites of photosynthesis Cell wall e. Cellulose structure supporting plant cell Cytoplasm f. Substance in which organelles are embedded Mitochondria g. Sites of cellular respiration Nucleolus h. Composed of RNA and protein Vacuole i. Occupies greatest volume in mature plant cells Nuclear Envelope j. Separates the nucleus from the cytoplasm Endoplasmic Reticulum k. Forms channels for intracellular movement of…

Perhaps the best, and only control of this disease is to catch it early and to prune the branches that are infected. Pruning the fruiting bodies before they are able to release the spores lessens the effect of future outbreaks. If wounds are visible on the tree, fungicide can be used to seal off wounds…

have begun adding vitamins and other characteristics to the plant to make it healthier for the consumer. These added traits would not necessarily have a huge impact on the United States, but this technology is useful in poorer nations where micronutrient malnutrition reigns king. These needy countries make up over half of the world. Genetic modification improves the qualities and quantities of these micronutrients in nearly any plant on the face of the earth (Statement on Benefits and Risks of…

The salmon leukemia virus is one that attacks the immune system and slowly causes the fish to die of other causes. This disease prevents the fish from fighting any other disease it might catch and begins to deteriorate the internal organs. Alex Morton began to show her findings that these fish from the Frasier River contained the virus and she was able to trace them back to the farms she soon became ostracized and put on gag order. To protect the interest of the salmon farm industry the…

activity is determined by agar diffusion method and reported that foeniculum vulgare essential oil is useful for natural bacterial to control of bacterial disease of plant and seed mainly in organic agriculture. In day today life people used to smoking, poor diet maintenance, less physical exercise lead to various diseases. Human health needs a followed diet. Considering this preparing fennel beverages in home is the best possible way too contribute improvement of human…

discussed around the world. GM crops are plants that have been genetically altered in order to become more efficient. Having food is very important to human life. We are being presented with an opportunity to improve our health and lives through genetically modified crops. They not only provide a substantial amount of nutrition, they can help us create vaccines, they make it easier to to care of the crops, and they can be improved to create healthy and strong plants. As for the concerns, there…

INTRODUCTION Environmental health as defined by the World Health Organization document of 1999 are the aspects of the human health and disease that are determined by factors in the environment. It also involves the practice of assessing and controlling factors in the environment that can potentially and affect health. Environmental health also includes both the direct pathological effects of chemicals, radiation and some biological agents, and the effects on health and wellbeing of the broad…
