Prevalence, Incidence and Severity of Anthracnose in Carica Papaya Fruits in Baringo and Elgeyo-Marakwet Counties
(African Journal of Education, Science and Technology, 2020)
Papaya is the fourth most important fruit crop in Kenya after oranges, mangoes and
bananas. It has also become an important export crop in the arid and semi-arid lands.
Anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides ...
Performance of 1550 nm VCSEL at 10 Gb/s in G.655 and G.652 SSMF
(International Journal of Sustainability Management and Information Technologies, 2020)
Vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) are now major optical sources in optical communication and
technology. The VCSEL-based transmission systems satisfy the next generation optical fibre access networks ...
Quasi-Particle Energy of a Mixture of Two-Component Gas of Bosons
(World Scientific News, 2020)
The properties of two component interacting gas of bosons are studied by assuming two slightly
different types of interactions between the atoms of the two gases. The system is described by two
operators a and b, that ...
INCIDENCE AND SEVERITY OF ANTHRACNOSE (Colletotrichum lindemuthianum) ON SELECTED COMMON BEAN (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) GENOTYPES
(American Journal of Agricultural Research, 2020)
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), is among the most important
legume crop for protein source in peoples’ diet globally and including
Kenya. Anthracnose (Colletotrichum lindemuthianum) is a common
disease of legumes ...
EVALUATION OF GARLIC OIL EXTRACT AS POTENTIAL PYRETHRUM SYNERGIST AGAINST SIGNIFICANT POST HARVEST PESTS
(University of Eldoret, 2021)
Post-harvest grain loss remains a major challenge facing farmers especially in developing countries. Pyrethrin is natural plant oil that forms the active ingredients of conventional insecticides combined with piperonyl ...
CANONICAL TRANSFORMATION AND THE PROPERTIES OF A MIXTURE OF FERMIONS AND BOSONS AT LOW TEMPERATURE
(University of Eldoret, 2021)
Properties of free and interacting systems of bosons and fermions have been studied theoretically using canonical transformation. In the last few years (1995 to be exact), condensates have been obtained practically in the ...
WATER DEFLUORIDATION USING RAW, MODIFIED AND COMBINED SULPHONATED POLYSTYRENE, CHICKEN FEATHERS AND FISH SCALES
(University of Eldoret, 2021)
Adequate fluoride intake is necessary in developing health bones and teeth and for the prevention of dental caries. Too much fluoride intake, however, leads to dental, skeletal and soft tissue damage, an irreversible ...
ANALYSIS OF FLUORIDE AND SELECTED HEAVY METALS IN KALES (Brassica oleracea) AND TOMATOES (Lycopersicum esculentum) FROM HORTICULTURAL FARMS IN NAKURU COUNTY, KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2021)
Recently field-grown vegetables including curly kales and endive have been reported to accumulate high fluoride levels in their leaves. As vegetables normally form an integral portion of the human diet, the occurrence of ...
A MODIFIED NUCLEAR MODEL FOR BINDING ENERGY OF NUCLEI AND THE ISLAND OF STABILITY
(University of Eldoret, 2021)
A new nuclear model of quantifying binding energy of nuclei is proposed. The nucleus is
assumed to be composed of two regions; the inner core region and surface region. The
inner core is assumed to be composed of Z ...
MODELING THE YIELD OF SOYBEAN (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) USING A FOUR COMPONENT MIXTURE EXPERIMENT IN THE PRESENCE OF VARIATION CREATED BY TWO PROCESS VARIABLES WITHIN SPLIT-PLOT DESIGN
(University of Eldoret, 2021)
Use of mixture design has become well-known in statistical modeling due to its utility in predicting any mixture's response and thus serving as the foundation for optimizing the predicted response on blends of different ...
