Cotyledonary nodes taken alongwith shoot apex from seedlings of cotton (G. hirsutum) proliferated into shoots on nutrient agar medium supplemented with cytokinins. In the presence of optimal plant growth regulators, low light intensity enhanced the number of shoots initiated per explant in cotton. An average of 33.5 +/- 2.9 shoots were obtained from a single explant cultured for 8 weeks which i...

Public health policies continue to play important roles in national and international health reforms. However, the influence and legacies of the public health eras during which such policies are formulated remain largely underappreciated. The limited appreciation of this relationship may hinder consistent adoption of public health policies by nation-states, and encumber disinvestment from ineff...

Empirically, justice might be immanently holistic—with procedural, distributive, restorative, and social justice positively correlated. Restorative justice may be about creating spaces where the various imperfectly correlated facets of holistic justice might cohere. State institutions of justice (such as criminal courts) with deeply embedded traditions of narrowing the meaning of justice (to pr...

This study identified and described adolescents’ exclusion rules and how they were related to their real world exclusionary behaviours. Adolescents (N5682) were asked to provide (a) an account and rationale for excluding a peer who wanted to join their group; and (b) general rules for when exclusion was fair. A content analysis of the narratives suggested seven rejection rules that were somewha...

For centuries tillage has been used to prepare suitable seedbed to grow crops, and to control weeds and incorporate fertilizers, pesticides, manures and other amendments. In early years conversion of native ecosystems by tillage helped to unlock nutrients stored in soil organic matter, and thus `mine' naturally fertile soils to grow crops with minimum inputs for the growing population. However,...

A suitable planting medium is a of good quality soil that can support plant growth quickly. Fertile the primary need for plants. The dramatically affects growth. types needed vary, namely sandy soil, red alluvial and humus soil. Using an NPK sensor functions to detect nutrients in work if tip plugged into they want detect, results detected by will be sent form analog signal data nodemcu, which ...

On fertile alluvial soils on the lakeshore plain of Malawi, maize (Zea mays L.) yields beneath canopies of large F aidherbia albida (syn Acacia albida) trees greatly exceed those found beyond tree canopies, yet there is little difference in soil nutrients or organic matter. To investigate the possibility that soil nutrient dynamics contribute to increased maize yields, this study focused on the...

The purpose of the paper is to investigate the soil organic matter and related properties of Terra Preta soils and to then relate them to modern sustainable agriculture. This paper is intended for scientists and students interested in the soil fertility of Oxisols. Abstract Most soils found in the Amazon region are characterized by highly weathered profiles that are incapable of long-term agric...

In recent years, the wine industry has become increasingly interested in the influence of the terroir characteristics on the features of a wine and, in particular, the mechanisms by which a soil influences wine quality. Among published papers on this topic, most merely describe the effect of the soil; few explain it. In this study were conducted a sensory evaluation and phenolic composition and...

Soil degradation, affecting around 38% of the world's cropland, threatens global food supply. Due to soil's complexity, measure soil degradation that involves loss fertility due crop system management processes represents an unsolved problem. Exergy is a property with potential be used in and/or analysis. A methodology determine exergy value fenced fertile its inorganic and organic components e...
