Effects of desiccation on post-planting stress in bare-root Co

pre-planting exposure stress on two-year-old, bare-root Corsican pine (Pinus nigra Arnold. ssp. laricio var. Corsicana) seedlings. Seedlings were lifted from a nursery and exposed to ambient conditions for periods of up to 192 h before being planted in minirhizotrons. Exposure decreased seedling water potential, CO2 assimilation rate, leaf conductance and new root elongation, and increased mort...

Pricing Barrier Options with Square Root Process

The square root constant elasticity of variance (CEV) process has been paid little attention in previous research on valuation of barrier options. In this paper we derive analytical option pricing formulae of up-and-out options with this process using the eigenfunction expansion technique. We develop an efficient algorithm to compute the eigenvalues where the basis functions in the formulae are...

Physiological Behaviour and Yield Performances of Hybrid Rice at Different Planting Dates in Aus Season

Two field experiments were conducted in 2009 and 2010 to evaluate some physiological traits and yield of three hybrid rice varieties (BRRI hybrid dhan2, Heera2, and Tia) in comparison to BRRI dhan48 in Aus season. The experiments involved four planting dates (1 April, 16 April, 1 May and 16 May). Compared to BRRI dhan48, hybrid varieties accumulated greater shoot dry matter at anthesis, higher ...

Strip Planting a Legume into Warm-Season Grass Pasture: Defoliation Effects During the Year of Establishment

Novel approaches are needed for overcoming barriers to successful association of herbaceous legumes with grasses in warm-climate pastures and to identify low-cost, long-term solutions to the problem of N limitation in low-input systems. The objective of this experiment was to evaluate defoliation management options during the year of establishment when rhizoma peanut (rp) (Arachis glabrata Bent...
