the aim of this research was to evaluate the influence of rooting cofactors including hydrogen peroxide, boric acid and thiamine along with indole-3-butyric acid (iba) on rooting of olive cuttings cv. rashid in autumn 2007 and spring 2008. the study was carried out as a factorial experiment in a completely randomized design (crd) with three replications, and five cuttings in each replication. r...

On 3 consecutive cuttings, alfalfa from a single field was mowed with a John Deere 946 mower-conditioner (4-m cut width; Moline, IL) to leave narrow swaths (NS) ranging from 1.2 to 1.52 m wide (30-37% of cutter bar width) and wide swaths (WS) ranging from 2.44 to 2.74 m wide (62-67% of cutter bar width). Samples were collected from windrows and dry matter (DM) was monitored during wilting until...

Thinnings, improvement cuttings, and other partial cuttings in southern bottomland hardwood forests are generally designed to enhance the growth and development of those species favored for management objectives. Hardwood tree classes and stocking guides can be used as tools to aid in planning and conducting partial cuttings in hardwood forests. Two disadvantages associated with any partial cut...

This rooting study was set up to compare Paradox walnut softwood cuttings from trees which had been: a) propagated through tissue culture, and b) from conventionally grown trees (seedlings). A number of studies on rooting of both hardwood and softwood cuttings of walnut trees have been made by various workers. Although it was reported by Lee, et. al. (1) and others that 100%rooting was obtained...

Studies on the host-parasite relat ionship of Pratylenchus vulnus Allen and Jensen to roots of several major crops have shown that this nematode feeds on cortical cells, an activity which causes extensive damage (2, 3). Similar informat ion is not available for grape, al though the association of P. vulnus with root injury on grape has been repor ted (1, 7). T h e purpose of the present study w...

The article discusses the features of growing cherry seedlings Ashinskaya variety by method green cuttings in conditions Chelyabinsk region. objective research was to study effect length on yield marketable seedlings. technology carried out period 2015-2018 under controlled a polycarbonate greenhouse. It found that when using 20, 30 and 40 cm long, rooting rate cherries increases 12.1-27.3%, di...

We present optimal deterministic algorithms for constructing shallow cuttings in an arrangement of lines in two dimensions or planes in three dimensions. Our results improve the deterministic polynomial-time algorithm of Matoušek (1992) and the optimal but randomized algorithm of Ramos (1999). This leads to efficient derandomization of previous algorithms for numerous wellstudied problems in co...

Background and Purpose: Black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia L.) is a valuable species native to North America and today widely planted throughout the world for biomass production. In Hungary, where Robinia has great importance in the forest management, the clones have been selected for plantations on good, medium and poor quality sites. To conserve the identity, superior clones are vegetatively ...
