Drought Response in Selected Tropical Inbred Maize Lines and Relative Expression of PARP2 Gene under Limited Water Conditions
(Science Publishing Group, 2018-04)Drought is the leading single factor that limits maize production thus inhibiting the crops genetic potential. In response to drought, maize and other plants synthesize Poly ADP-Ribose (PAR) protein. This process is ... -
The drying kinetics of kale (Brassica oleracea) in a convective hot air dryer
(Elsevier, 2005-12-31)The effect of air temperature and sample thickness on the drying kinetics of kale was investigated using a convective air dryer at a fixed airflow rate of 1 m/s and drying air temperatures of 30, 40, 50 and 60 °C. The ... -
The drying of onion slices in two types of hot-air convective dryers
(Academic Journals, 2012-08-07)Drying experiments were carried out using two types of convective hot-air dryers such that the hot air passed perpendicularly through a thin layer of onion slices in one dryer while the air passed parallel to the thin layer ... -
