Dynamics of Fruit Growth in ‘Conference’ Pear as Affected by Root Pruning, Irrigation and Climatic Conditions

In 2002, daily fluctuations in trunk diameter and fruit diameter on ‘Conference’ pear trees were measured with linear voltage displacement transducers. On an average sunny day in July, trunk diameter started to decrease around 10 a.m. when air temperature increased. This continued until 8 p.m. when air temperature started to decline. Fruit diameter growth of ‘Conference’ ceased as soon as trunk...

empirical and fundamental rheological properties of wheat flour dough as affected by different climatic conditions

the aim of this study was to evaluate the capability of the empirical (large scale) and fundamental (small scale) rheological tests to differentiate between wheat flours of different harvest years. in order to provide flours affected by different climatic conditions, harvest years 2004 and 2005 characterized by high temperatures and large amounts of rainfall were chosen. moreover, a control whe...

Tea yield and soil properties as affected by slope position and aspect in Lahijan area, Iran

Soil genesis, physico-chemical properties and tea yield were investigated along different hillslope positions in the major tea cultivation area of Iran, i.e. Lahijan, Gilan Province. Land suitability was also determined for the tea production in this hilly region. Four different slope positions i.e., summit, shoulder, backslope and toeslope were sampled on three slope aspects following the prof...
