Physical purity testing is a fundamental part of seed quality assessment, ensuring that seed lots meet established purity standards before planting or marketing. As a core component of seed certification programs, it verifies the proportion of pure seeds in a given sample and detects contamination by other crop ...
We are welcomed by Maurice Hadders, potato grower in the countryside on the border between Flevoland and Friesland. The processing of potatoes is ongoing at full capacity, but luckily Maurice does have time to sit down and talk to us. We sit around a large round kitchen table, with coffee served in Boerenbond. We talk about the move to Schouten Optica CS. A deliberate and exciting choice, which ...
A sunny spring day in Wieringerwerf, North-Holland. The Knibbe family is sitting opposite of us, on appropriate distance of course. Openly, we speak with the brothers Jim, Luke and Nico about their company, the motives behind choosing for the Schouten Optica and of course their experiences with the Optica. Within a short period of time their parents David & Jolanda will take a step back, ...
Arable farmer Sierd Visser grows his seed potatoes and onions in a nature-inclusive and energy-neutral manner. ...
In crops, fatty acid profiles influence seed quality, oil content, and tolerance to environmental stresses. By quantifying fatty acids in plant tissues, scientists can gain insight into the genetic and environmental factors shaping lipid biosynthesis. ...
Gibberellins (GAs): This group of hormones, such as GA3, plays a key role in stimulating stem elongation, seed germination, and flowering processes. Gibberellins activate the transcription of genes important for growth and development, including enzymes involved in breaking down stored seed reserves during germination. Abscisic Acid (ABA): Known for its role in ...

l Ecological and Functional Implications Genome size is correlated with ecological and physiological traits, such as seed size, growth rate, and stress tolerance. Understanding these relationships helps predict how plants respond to environmental changes. ...
Common antioxidant-rich plant extracts are: green tea extract, grape seed extract, rosemary extract, licorice root extract, turmeric extract etc. ...
Plastic Applications for Agriculture Plastics have a variety of applications in the agriculture industry, including but not limited to: Mulch films for cereal crops Bulk bags for crop transportation Veterinary medicine containers Hoses and nozzles for irrigation Plastic bags for grain storage Solid fertilizer containers Seed packaging Net to tie bales Plastic film to cover ...
Mobile genetic elements shatter the concept of fixed location genes on chromosomes 1974: Institute for Genetics, Justus-Liebig University, Giessen, Germany. Prof. Fritz Anders (1) passes two papers to his student: “Please read these (2, 3)…. and provide a summary of them next week in our Journal Club!” Published two decades earlier and authored by Dr. ...
Cucumber young plants are sensitive to root damage. By using Growcoon we increase the transplant success rate because the roots stay protected. People around me wondered why I use Growcoon. For me it was an innovation and a good investment. As time went by it showed its true value. When seedlings are sensitive, and cultivation days in the nursery are short Growcoon increases the transplant ...
Regulating Growth and DevelopmentSUMOylation participates in several stages of plant growth and development, such as flower development, seed development, and germination.3. Gene Expression RegulationSUMOylation can affect the activity of proteins such as transcription factors, thereby regulating gene expression.SUMOylation and Other Protein ModificationsSUMOylation is somewhat ...
Batouwe Boomkwekerijen has developed into a highly respected name in the market in a short period of time. In 2005, Willem and Henk Huibers began their mission to improve results of growers by delivering high quality. 'With Growcoon we can transplant faster. That's our big ...
Animal Nutrition At BioZyme®, we have been in the animal nutrition business for more than 70 years. In that time, we have grown from making a simple cattle mineral to expanding our product lines to include supplements for multiple species. These include all the animals in our lives. From those that feed and clothe the world, like cattle, hogs and sheep, to the animals that offer ...
Why there's a necessity for it? What some approaches to doing that might be? Segra is a Canadian-based Cannabis tissue culture nursery business. We grow plants at industrial scale for LPs. We can also do preservation and regeneration services by tissue culture for people and I oversee a genetics lab which performs various tests from everything from pathogen detection to what I’m going to ...
In the case of flowering plants, microorganisms also hitch a ride through pollen, nectar, and eventually seeds, transmitting vertically as seed microorganisms to the subsequent life cycle. ...
Designed with precision-engineered V-shaped wedge wires, this screen allows for high-efficiency solid-liquid separation, ensuring the removal of organic matter, peelings, seeds, pulp, and other debris from the wastewater generated during processing. ...
Our innovation is a major transformation in farmers’ decision making regarding the application of limited resources such as water, seeds, fertilizer and labor. Instead of relying on common-sense management, farmers are now able to take decisions based on facts, resulting in an increase in water productivity. ...
