In order to solve the problem of high straw content in recovered residual film and low rate qualified crushing combination with a front-mounted cotton-straw-crushing device, cutting mechanisms cotton stalks were studied based on ANSYS/LS-DYNA. The height h dip angle α fixed blade determined be 30 mm 75° through finite element analysis. On basis device design, explicit dynamic models single stal...

high intensity evaporation from the soil surface due to low air humidity and poor soil structure and organic matter are constraints of agriculture in arid and semi-arid regions of iran. regionally, maintaining plant residue with tillage management is one method to improve these conditions. in this study, for a barley-corn rotation, four barley residue management methods for standing stubble (bu...

Fifty Merino weaner sheep grazing on a wheat stubble at Wongan Hills were fed ad lib. either oat grain mixed with limestone (2% w/w) or just oat grain during the summer and autumn of 1985. The addition of limestone to the oat supplement increased the growth of the sheep from 39 g/day to 83 g/day (P<O.OOl) during the first 70 days of feeding. A summer thunderstorm resulted in a brief germination...

Magnaporthe grisea, also identified as rice blast fungus, rotten rice neck, rice seedling blight, oval leaf spot of graminea, blast of rice [1], pitting disease, ryegrass blast, and Johnson spot is a plant-pathogenic fungus that causes a serious disease affecting rice [2]. Rice blast, caused by Magnaporthe grisea, is considered the most important disease of rice worldwide [3] because of its ext...

The colonization pattern and extent of decay produced in paddy stubble by soil inhabiting mycoflora were done by using nylon net bag technique. Among the three methods used for isolation of fungi, dilution plate technique recorded the highest number of fungi followed by damp chamber and direct observation method. Nutrient availability and climatic conditions (temperature, humidity and rainfall)...

The 2B5 region on the X chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster forms an early ecdysone puff at the end of the third instar. The region is coextensive with a complex genetic locus, the Broad-Complex (BR-C). The BR-C is a regulatory gene that contains two major functional domains, the br domain and the l(1)2Bc domain. BR-C mutants prevent metamorphosis, including morphogenesis of imaginal discs; b...
