Alstroemeria is one of the most popular cut flowers in European Union owing to its postharvest longevity and broad color spectra. Nevertheless, premature wilting decreases the aesthetic value of flowering branches even before the opening of the secondary florets in the fluorescence. The present study evaluated different biochemical and morphological traits of Alstroemeria cut ...

In order to investigate the cause of wilting symptoms in red pepper field Korea, frequency occurrence peppers showing was investigated cultivation fields Goesan, Chungcheongbuk-do for 5 years from 2010 2014. There a difference depending on year investigation, but increased as investigation period passed June and July August. During this period, Ralstonia solanacearum causing bacterial wilt isol...

abstract to optimal use of available water, irrigation scheduling is important to over scarcity of water resources in arid and semi-arid area. in this research to estimate of maximum allowable deficit (or: management allowed depletion) and irrigation scheduling of fodder mays based on canopy-air temperature difference, a field study was conducted in agricultural faculty of karaj. the lower limi...

in this study, hydrus2d/3d software was used to estimate the hydraulic parameters of van genuchten-mualem model via inverse modeling using double-ring infiltrometers data in 3 different soil textures. nine scenarios of inverse modeling (divided in three groups) were considered with different number (5, 4 and 3) of fitted hydraulic parameters for optimization. in the first group, simulation was ...

The impact of global climate change is a challenge to the sustainability many ecosystems, including soil systems. However, performance properties under future was rarely assessed. Therefore, this study carried out evaluate selected processes using an agri-environmental modeling approach Sri Lanka. Agricultural Production Systems Simulator (APSIM) model used simulate and plant-related recent pas...

s: A combination of field measurements, continuous monitoring, and numerical modeling were used to evaluate soil moisture regimes at four sites across a landscape gradient of the Heihe River Basin (HRB). Recorded data of precipitation, irrigation, and floods were used to build the model, and an optimization technique was employed to calibrate the parameters. Based on the optimized parameters an...

This paper proposes a method for animating leaf structural deformation considering the leaf water content and its change due to evaporation. To achieve this we embed a massspring system into a mesh representing the leaf, and couple the mass-spring parameters with a simulation representing the fluid flow and evaporation occurring in the leaf. This chain of events aims to simulate the natural pro...

Cycloheximide was shown to block abscisic acid (ABA) biosynthesis in nonstressed as well as in stressed Phaseolus vulgaris leaves. Leaf wilting caused by cycloheximide resulted from increased stomatal opening as judged by a decreased stomatal diffusion resistance. The inhibition of ABA biosynthesis by cycloheximide was at least partially responsible for the increase in stomatal opening as sugge...

Fusarium wilt of zucchini in Jeonju, Korea, was first noticed in May 2013. Symptoms included wilting of the foliage, drying and withering of older leaves, and stunting of plants. Infected plants eventually died during growth. Based on morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses of the molecular markers (internal transcribed spacer rDNA and translation elongation factor 1α), the fung...
