Growth characteristics of Cannabis saliva L. are indispensable factors to verify the statements by the criminals of illegal cannabis cultivation. To investigate growth characteristics of C. sativa, two varieties, cannabidiolic acid (CBDA)-rich (CBDA-type) which being cultivated for fiber production and delta9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA)-rich (THCA-type) which is used for drug abuse, were...

The relationships between rooting potential with endogenous phenolic compounds, nitrogen and soluble carbohydrates of cuttings for five olive cultivars (‘Rowghani’, ‘Dusti’, ‘Tokhmekabki’, ‘Konservalia’ and ‘Amigdalolia’) were investigated. Extracts of the leaves and the base of the cuttings were used for analysis of biochemical compounds. Results showed that there were significant differences ...

Ralstonia solanacearum (biovar 2, race 3) is a soil and water-borne pathogen that causes serious diseases in several solanaceous hosts. It can also infect geranium plants, posing an important threat to their culture when latently infected cuttings are imported from countries where the pathogen is endemic. R. solanacearum can be present in very low numbers in asymptomatic geranium cuttings, and/...

In a previous paper 6], we noted that the CM-2's natural data layout is not conducive to exchanging data with other machines. In order for CM-2 data to be understandable to a remote machine, a bitwise transpose must be performed on the data. Each bit in an n bit value must be transmitted to a diierent processor, requiring n send operations through the CM-2's global router network. The time requ...

Recovery from disturbance in deep water is poorly understood, but as anthropogenic impacts increase in deeper water it is important to quantify the process. Exploratory hydrocarbon drilling causes physical disturbance, smothering the seabed near the well. Video transects obtained by remotely operated vehicles were used to assess the change in invertebrate megafaunal density and diversity caused...

The study was commenced in a compulsion toaccomplish successful approach developing commercially viable polyploidy variety Jasminum sambac. Rooted cuttings of J. sambac cv. Ramanathapuram Gundumalli were treated with different concentrations colchicine (0.05%, 0.10%, 0.15%, 0.20% and 0.25%) for 48 hours. survival sprouting rates the treatments determined after 45 days treatment phenotypic stoma...

In order to find a way to induce rooting on cuttings of Hemarthria compressa cv. Ya'an under controlled conditions, a project was carried out to study the effect of naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) on rooting in stem cuttings and related physiological changes during the rooting process of Hemarthria compressa. The cuttings were treated with five concentrations of NAA (0, 100, 200 300, 400 mg/l) at...

Vegetative propagation of pear rootstocks using semi hardwood cuttings The objective of this work was to evaluate the technical viability of the vegetative propagation of the pear rootstocks ‘Taiwan Nashi-C’, ‘Taiwan Mamenashi’ (Pyrus calleryana Dcne.) and ‘Seleção IAC-1’ (Pyrus spp.) using semi-hardwood cuttings. The experiment was conducted in a nursery with an intermittent mist system at the...

Direct rooting and rooting via a wound tissue in Pinus sylvestris L. and Pinus contorta Dougl. ex Loud. hypocotyl cuttings in vitro were studied. Direct rooting usually occurred within three weeks after cutting. Three to four weeks after cutting, roots developed either directly on the hypocotyl or via a wound tissue. Later than one month after cutting, rooting took place predominantly via a wou...
