Regeneration Response of Gladiolus
ISBN: 9783639149067 / Angielski / Miękka / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Gladiolus Cultivar Friendship is highly susceptible
to soil born Fungus Fusarium oxysporum. Highly resistant cell-lines were regenerated through in-vitro selection at callus and cell suspension level. Cell suspensions of all four Gladiolus cultivars were found highly sensitive to fusaric acid. Gradual increase in fusaric acid concentrations to the cell-suspension cultures decreased cell growth considerably. The cormlets of all in-vitro selected cell lines of "Friendship" were inoculated with a conidial suspension of the F. oxysporum. The four selected cell lines showed the same response...

Genetic diversity of Vietnam tea
ISBN: 9783639201383 / Angielski / Miękka / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Tea plant, Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze, used to produce the oldest and most popular non-alcoholic soft beverage across the world, is one of the most important cash crops of many countries, including Vietnam. Known as a freely cross-pollinated plant, with many overlapping morphological, biochemical and physiological attributes, tea can not be separated into discrete groups to identify various taxa. Since hybrids are used and clonal propagation is recommended, genetic diversity of tea can be diminished if care is not taken. Information on taxonomic characteristics, genetic diversity and...

Regulierung des Rapsglanzkäfers im ökologischen Landbau
ISBN: 9783639267617 / Niemiecki / Miękka / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Die Nachfrage nach Rapsol aus biologischer Erzeugung ist in den letzten Jahren stark gestiegen. Allerdings spielt der Anbau von Raps im Okolandbau bislang nur eine untergeordnete Rolle. Grund hierfur ist u. a. das hohe Schadpotenzial durch tierische Schaderreger, das zu hohen Qualitats- und Ertragseinbussen fuhren kann. Problematisch ist vor allem das Auftreten des Rapsglanzkafers, der mit im Okolandbau zugelassenen Pflanzenschutzmitteln nicht bekampft werden kann. Eine Idee zur biologischen Regulierung des Rapsglanzkafers besteht darin, den vor dem Raps bluhenden Rubsen als Fangpflanze...

ISBN: 9783639348262 / Angielski / Miękka / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. High temperature is a limit factor for successful potato cultivation in lowland tropical regions. The inhibitory effect of high temperature is mediated through high levels of Gibberellin (GA) like compounds & there effect could be averted using GA biosynthesis inhibitors like Paclobutrazol (PBZ). Understanding the effect of reproductive growth on dry matter production and distribution is crucial in crops like potato. Effects of foliar & soil applied PBZ on soot growth, anatomical modifications, chlorophyll content, rate of transpiration, net photosynthesis, tuber yield, quality & dormancy of...

Maximum temperature was the most important weather factor which contributed maximum for fruit infestation i.e. 60.50 % for average of both the study years, respectively. Hair density on midrib was the most important physical character which showed significantly negative impact and contributed 42.7 % role in the...

Nutrient composition and product development of edible non-farm produce
ISBN: 9783838371221 / Angielski / Miękka / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Non farm produce have a tremendous potential as a source of food, besides meeting multipurpose needs of local communities. These foods are more fit or adapted than the introduced species for cultivation in their native areas and can sometimes significantly out perform the introduced premier foods. As most of these foods grow wildly (unattended), they adapt themselves to adverse conditions and thus may be easy to cultivate. The vast numbers of those unused and underutilized species represent enormous untapped commodity resources which can help to meet the increasing demand for food,...

Effect of Modifying Microclimate in the Plastichouse on Salt Tolerance
ISBN: 9783843389181 / Angielski / Miękka / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Agricultural production under irrigation of saline water is becoming an important issue, especially with the continuous demand of fresh water. So, low quality saline water should be used for irrigation, particularly in some regions, especially with the rapid expansion of reclaimed lands.The term "greenhouse climate," has been used to indicate the set of environmental quantities, i.e. radiation, temperature, humidity, and CO2 concentration, in a greenhouse as they affect plant growth and development. Conventionally, greenhouse environment has been represented by a group of special average...
