چکیده
Young Valencia orange trees were grown for three years in large outdoor sand cultures on complete nutrient solu tions that varied differentially only in the amount of boron. Three rates of boron were applied to single-tree plots. The plots were replicated four times. No difference in tree size resulted from the differential treatments. Rather large differences in the boron content of the leaves were induced. The low-boron plants showed mild foliage deficiency symptoms during the second year but not in the first or third years of growth. The high-boron plants showed slight leaf symptoms of toxicity throughout the three-year period. Mature leaves showed virtually no differences in mineral composition other than the 10to 24-fold difference in boron. Phosphorus tended to be present in slightly greater concentration when boron was low. Young leaves showed this same rela tionship with phosphorus in a more pro nounced manner. When the boron sup ply was low, potassium accumulation in the leaf was retarded and magnesium accumulation accentuated. The rate of calcium accumulation was depressed at the highest boron level. These differ ences appear to diminish as the leaf approaches maturity. The only consistent difference in the quality of the fruit produced during the third year was a slight reduction in the ascorbic acid content in the low-boron cultures.

متن کاملComparative study of degradation of PP modified with organic pro-degradant subjected to natural and artificial ageing
In abiotic degradation the action of light radiation is one of the most important parameters, because polymers undergo degradation due to the action of light (natural or artificial). The aim of this study was to investigate the degradation rate for samples of polypropylene (PP) modified with an organic pro-degradant submitted to ageing in a natural environment and to accelerated ageing test. Th...

متن کاملRecovery of Oil in Limestone with Cationic Surfactant: Investigation of the Adsorption, Wettability, and Spontaneous Imbibition
The performance of petroleum recovery methods is dependent on the characteristics of the reservoir rock, oil quality, and formation water. One fundamental feature for considering petroleum recovery methods is the wettability of the rock reservoir. Also, this feature impacts the displacement of fluids in the rock reservior. In the case of the limestone, which normally features oil wettability, e...
متن کاملPlatelet-Rich Fibrin Promotes an Accelerated Healing of Achilles Tendon When Compared to Platelet-Rich Plasma in Rat
BACKGROUND Autologous platelet concentrate has been used to improve the function and regeneration of injured tissues. Tendinopathies are common in clinical practice, although long-term treatment is required. On the basis of lead time, we compared the effect of using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) in repairing rat Achilles tendon. METHODS The effectiveness of usi...
