Greenhouse experiment was conducted for four months using Leucaena leucocephala and Pleurotus tuber-regium to determine their bioremediation potentials. Leucaena leucocephala, Pleurotus tuber-regium and Leucaena leucocephala combined with Pleurotus tuber-regium were tested for their ability to improve nutrient (N, P, K, total organic carbon) and reduce heavy metals (Zn, Ni, Pb, Cu) of soil poll...

Apios americana is a wild legume-bearing plant with edible tubers. Domestication of Apios is in progress because of the superior nutritional value and health benefits of the tuber. Objectives of this study were to: (1) characterize physicochemical properties of the Apios tuber starch; and (2) understand differences in starch structures and properties between the mother (seed) and child (progeny...

Tuber pseudoexcavatum, Tuber sinoaestivum, and Tuber indicum are the 3 most important truffles growing in southeast China; however, their cultivation is still inefficient owing to the lack of understanding regarding the composition and function of the bacterial and fungal communities from the soils around the fruit bodies and the ectomycorrhiza of these truffles. The aim of this study was to di...

Potato tuber development has proven to be a valuable model system for studying underground sink organ formation. Research on this topic has led to the identification of many genes involved in this complex process and has aided in the unravelling of the mechanisms underlying starch synthesis. However, less attention has been paid to the biochemical pathways of other important metabolites or to t...

The global carbon sequestration and avoided emissions potentially achieved via blue is high (∼3% of annual greenhouse gas emissions); however, it limited by multidisciplinary interacting uncertainties spanning the social, governance, financial, technological dimensions. We compiled a transdisciplinary team experts to elucidate these challenges identify way forward. Key actions enhance as natura...

We examine the role of high-frequency traders (HFT) in price discovery. Overall HFT play a positive role in price efficiency by trading in the direction of permanent price changes and in the opposite direction of transitory pricing errors on average days and the highest volatility days. This is done through their marketable orders. In contrast, HFT passive non-marketable orders are adversely se...

in order to investigate the effect of different levels of biological fertilizers on potato performance (cv. marfona), an experiment was carried out as strip plot based on rcb design with 3 replications in 2011 at isfahan. treatments included nitrocara at 4 levels (0: control, 220, 330 and 440 ml.ha-1) as a first factor and nitroxin+ phosphate at 4 levels (0+0: control, 20+100, 30+150 and 50+200...

In order to finding cultivars with high yield and compatible with potato in the form of fall cultivation in jiroft area, an experiment in randomized complete block design with three replication, was done in Jiroft agricultural research center in 2013. In this experiment height plant, No. Stem, Tuber diameter, Tuber weight/plant, No. tuber and yield were examined. Effect Prevent Freezing Cropaid...

Studies were conducted to assess the response of hot pepper cultivars for yield and quality in the local soil and climatic conditions of the US Virgin Islands. Seven cultivars namely `Ring of Fire’, `Compadre’, `Camino Real’, `Jalapeno M’, `Caribbean Red’, `Hungarian Yellow Hot Wax’, and `Aguila Real’ were tested in the field.Significant differences were observed in cultivars for marketable fru...
