The population density of Hoplolaimus magnistylus, a lance nematode, in cotton was determined at planting, mid-season, and harvest during the 1995 and 1996 growing seasons for a Poinsett County, Arkansas field. Nematode populations increased from planting to harvest in 1995 but declined in 1996. Application of aldicarb at planting at rates of 0.59 or 0.84 kg a.i./ha did not influence either nem...

Seed treatments with Bacillus cereus UW85 increased nodulation of soybeans in three field seasons and in three different sterilized soils in the growth chamber. In the field, 28 and 35 days after planting, UW85-treated plants had 31 to 133% more nodules than untreated plants. From 49 days after planting until seed harvest, there were no significant differences between nodulation of UW85-treated...

Due to the extreme weather that hit throughout year resulted in threat of rice plants falling down. It was known fall a limiting factor for obtaining high yields and quality grain. Therefore, it considered important evaluate resistance general methods planting area. Those were transplanting (TP) direct seed (TBL). Based on this objective, we identified morphophysiology stems laying 2 commonly u...
