Foliar fertilization in citriculture

certainly not a new concept to the citrus industry. For more than five decades, foliar fertilization of citrus has been recommended to correct zinc, manganese, boron, copper and magnesium deficiencies. It is now common knowledge in agriculture that properly nourished crops may tolerate insect pests and diseases. Traditionally, citrus growers try to achieve optimum nutrition through direct soil ...

Poincaré Duality and Periodicity, Ii. James Periodicity

Let K be a connected finite complex. This paper studies the problem of whether one can attach a cell to some iterated suspension ΣK so that the resulting space satisfies Poincaré duality. When this is possible, we say that ΣK is a spine. We introduce the notion of quadratic self duality and show that if K is quadratically self dual, then ΣK is a spine whenever j is a suitable power of two. The ...

Periodicity in a System of Differential Equations with Finite Delay

The existence and uniqueness of a periodic solution of the system of differential equations d dt x(t) = A(t)x(t − ) are proved. In particular the Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem and the contraction mapping principle are used in the analysis. In addition, the notion of fundamental matrix solution coupled with Floquet theory is also employed.
