Groeipunte van die Duke 7 cultivar is asepties met behulp van weefselkultuur metodes gekweek om groei en vermeerdering van lote te bevorder. Binne 9 weke het groeipunte op 'n gewysigde Dixon en Fuller-medium met sitokinien en geen ouksien aanleiding gegee tot die ontwikkeling van 6.1 nuwe lote per eksplant. Die nuwe lote het ontstaan uitoksel-knoppe van die oorspronklike eksplant sowelas okselk...

Planting multifunctional trees (e.g., fruit species) in cities can promote genetic conservation, economic activity, ecosystem services, and social cohesion. However, Indonesia, the relationship between abundance of tree species different city characteristics, including their involvement national smart project, is still unknown. In this study, published reports field surveys were used to evaluat...

Mexico is the main exporter of avocado in world, while Canada seventh importer. To meet its domestic demand, imports about 93.73% avocados from Mexico. It worth mentioning that, between 2003 and 2018, average annual growth rate Mexican was 14.72%; while, 2019 to 2021, this same averaged -4.65, that is, period fell at an 4.65%. This research aims determine viability increasing exports Canadian m...

A 10-wk study of the avocado seed-feeding moth Stenoma catenifer Walsingham (Lepidoptera: Elachistidae), was conducted in a commercial 'Hass' avocado (Persea americana Miller [Lauraceae]) orchard in Guatemala. Up to 45% of fruit in the orchard were damaged by larval S. catenifer. Larval-to-adult survivorship for 1,881 S. catenifer larvae in Hass fruit was 37%, and adult sex ratio was 51% female...

To produce effective advice several sources of knowledge are needed. Knowledge about the application domain the advice is concerned with is of course necessary, but not sufficient. If the aim of the intervention is inducing people to modify their habits, we also need specific theories of how and why people change behaviour to guide the advising process. In some cases, however, it still does not...

Surveys for Stenoma catenifer Walsingham, the avocado seed moth, and its associated larval parasitoids were conducted in the Departments of Junín, Huánuco, Cusco, and Madre de Dios in Perú. Fruit infestation levels in some areas ranged from 0 to 58%, and parasitism of S. catenifer larvae in Junín and Huánuco was 23%. Five species of hymenopteran parasitoid in two families, Braconidae (Apanteles...

In this study, avocados of the Hass variety cultivated in Almuñécar (Granada, Spain) are analyzed after soil mulching with pruning debris. The mulch treatment assay was composed wastes from subtropical crops (avocado, cherimoya, and mango) garden surrounding areas. aim work is to analyze nutrient content avocado fruit effect pruning-waste on development over four years. Avocado fruits collected...

Ground green waste is used as mulch in ornamental landscapes and for tree crops such as avocados. Survival of Armillaria mellea, Phytophthora cinnamomi, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, and Tylenchulus semipenetrans was assessed for 8 weeks within unturned piles of either recently ground or partially composted green waste. S. sclerotiorum survived at the pile surface and at 10, 30, and 100 cm within t...

Tetraleurodes perseae Nakahara (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) is an exotic whiteßy in California that is aminorpest of avocados,Persea americanaMiller (Lauraceae). Fieldmonitoringover a 4.5-yr period (1997Ð2002) in a commercial avocado orchard in southern California indicated that T. perseae is probably univoltine, and adult densities show single distinct peaks each year around August. The only hymen...
