Crop Rotation Influences Aflatoxin Producing Potential of Aspergillus Communities in South Texas
Aspergillus flavus, the causal agent of aflatoxin contamination, is a natural inhabitant of soils. A. flavus can be divided into two strains, S and L, with S strain isolates having a greater aflatoxin contamination potential than L strain isolates. Aflatoxin contamination can be severe in several crops in South Texas including cottonseed and corn. A. flavus communities in soils of South Texas c...
متن کاملEffect of cropping system on cotton biomass accumulation and yield formation in double–cropped wheat–cotton
Wheat–cotton double cropping practices on a large scale in cotton belt of the Yellow RiverValley and the Yangtze River Valley in China. Field experiments were conducted to determinethe effects of wheat–cotton double cropping on cotton biomass accumulation and yieldformation during 2011/12 and 2012/13 growing seasons. Two cotton cultivars, Siza 3 (mid–latematurity) and CCRI 50 (early maturity), ...
متن کاملComparing Simulated and Measured Soil Organic Carbon Content of Clay Soils for Time Periods Up to 60 Years
JIMMY R. WILLIAMS Texas A&M Experiment Station 808 East Blackland Road Temple, Texas 76502, USA ABSTRACT / The Erosion Productivity Impact Calculator model (EPIC) was recently altered to include algorithms based upon concepts found in the Century model with the exception of a daily time step. We compared measured soil organic carbon (SOC) content values with simulated values to validate the new...
متن کاملCotton water-deficit stress, age, and cultivars as moderating factors of cotton fleahopper abundance and yield loss
Field experiments were conducted in 2012 and 2013 during drought conditions in South Texas and the Texas High Plains to test whether cotton water-deficit stress, age, and cultivars are moderating and interacting factors that affect cotton fleahopper, Pseudatomoscelis seriatus (Reuter) (Hemiptera: Miridae), abundance and yield loss. Irrigation and sequential plantings of several cultivars were u...
