in this research, the ability of bacillus strains in suppression of mycelial growth and conidial germination of b. cinerea against botrytis fruit rot of strawberry were evaluated in three cultivars of strawberry including quineliza, paros and kurdistan. results indicated that among 32 strains of bacillus, ten strains showed strong inhibitory effects against b. cinerea using the plate assay and ...

T h i s work investigates problems encountered in the application of one color resonant two-photon ionization as an ionization source in supersonic beam mass spectroscopy. Of particular interest is the fact that photons of one color may not provide sufficient energy to cause ionization even when the laser source is tuned to an excited vibronic molecular state. We have therefore correlated trend...
