Trichoderma aggressivum, a mycopathogen causing green mould disease, is major problem in Agaricus bisporus cultivation due to crop loss, and resistance chemical fungicides. There an urgent need for novel biological ways control mycopathogens without affecting the growth of A. bisporus. Bacteria from mushroom-casing environment were identified tested antagonistic effect on T. aggressivum. Bacill...

Black currant is the main berry crop due to rich biochemical composition of fruit, winter hardiness, early fruitfulness, high yield, unpretentiousness in reproduction and cultivation. The purpose work was summarize results on black breeding centers Urals Siberia. article reflects historical development Asian Russia. Academician M.A. Lisavenko developed a strategy for creating varieties three ty...

A near-infrared camera in use at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) and at the 1.6-m telescope of the Observatoire du Mont-Mégantic is described. The camera is based on a Hawaii-1 1024×1024 HgCdTe array detector. Its main feature is to acquire three simultaneous images at three wavelengths across the methane absorption bandhead at 1.6 μm, enabling, in theory, an accurate subtraction of t...

We have obtained optical imaging with the Canada France Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) of 21 2MASS-selected QSOs of redshift greater than 0.3. This paper complements the sample of lower redshift 2MASS QSOs previously published. The QSOs have higher overall and nuclear luminosity, bluer colours, and higher ratio of nuclear to host flux than the lower redshift sample. From these and other properties, we...

BACKGROUND Biofilm formation is a major pathogenic factor in different bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. A number of studies have reported that bacterial biofilms show different levels of antibiotic resistance. In order to re-sensitize the bacterial biofilms to antibiotics, biofilms should be dispersed. OBJECTIVES In this study, the effect of n-butanolic Cyclamen coum extract in combin...

We report the discovery of CFBDS J005910.90-011401.3 (hereafter CFBDS0059), the coolest brown dwarf identified to date. We found CFBDS0059 using i and z images from the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT), and present optical and near-infrared photometry, Keck laser guide star adaptive optics imaging, and a complete near-infrared spectrum, from 1.0 to 2.2 μm. A side to side comparison of the ...

Three groups of five rumen and duodenum cannulated fauna-free sheep were used in a 28 d experiment. One group remained fauna-free, whereas the second (EN) and third (PP) groups, respectively, were inoculated intraruminally with the protozoan species Entodinium caudatum and Polyplastron multivesiculatum. Rumen fluid, duodenal digesta and faecal samples were collected during the last 12 d. The fl...
