The efficiency of a hybrid systems method which combined artificial neural networks (ANNs) as a modeling tool and genetic algorithms (GAs) as an optimizing method for input variables used in ANN modeling was assessed. Hence, as a new technique, it was applied for the prediction and optimization of the plant hormones concentrations and combinations for in vitro proliferation of Garnem (G × N15) ...

Persea schiedeana, a close relative of avocado (Persea americana), is an important part of agroforestry systems and diets in parts of Mesoamerica, particularly in the coffee growing areas of southeastern Mexico and Guatemala, where it is known as chinene, coyo, and yas. Little research attention has been given to this species, other than as a rootstock for avocado. Research carried out in six v...

Plant interspecific periclinal chimeras are a mosaic formed by tissues from two species. They are manipulated here as an efficient plant breeding tool for cassava root yields. In this study, plants synthesized from two chimeras, designated as chimera 2 and chimera 4, were characterized morphologically and cytologically to unravel the origin of their tissue layers (L2 and L3). Root yield of the ...

In Citrus, flower induction represents the transition from vegetative to reproductive growth. The regulation of is mainly triggered by exposure low temperatures and water-deficit stress, which activates signaling cascade leading an increased expression citrus orthologs FLOWERING LOCUS T (CiFT). this study, relationship between rootstock under Mediterranean field conditions was investigated moni...

This study was conducted during two successive seasons 2021 and 2022 to evaluate the performance of some scion foreign imported mango cultivars (Keitt, Naomi, Osten Shelly) on three rootstocks (Sukkary, Zebda 4/9) grown in sandy soil with drip irrigation systemin a private orchard nursery at Almansoria, Giza Governorate, Egypt. experiment laid out split-plot design success, initial growthperfor...

We studied relationships between diurnal patterns of stem water potential (PsiSTEM) and stem extension growth of the same scion cultivar growing on three rootstocks with differing size-controlling potentials. The peach trees (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) used in this field experiment consisted of an early-maturing freestone cultivar, 'Flavorcrest,' grafted onto three different rootstocks: Nemagu...

One of the most popular data mining areas, which estimate future trends of data, is classification. This research is dedicated to predict Iranian passenger train delay with high accuracy over Iranian railway network. A hybrid method based on neuro-fuzzy inference system and Two-step clustering is used for this purpose. The results indicate that the hybrid method is superior over the other commo...

In the last five decades, use of rootstocks and scions has changed, along with their systems cultivation. Associated climate change, fruit trees face new ecological phytopathological challenges. Rootstocks affect generative vegetative performance a scion, such as productivity, span nonbearing period, growth vigor, shelf-life quality fruits. According to recent study, they also frost tolerance f...
