Green tea catechins applied to susceptible hosts inhibit parasitic plant attachment success
Parasitic plants utilize cell wall degrading enzymes (CWDEs) to penetrate their host plant and attach to host vasculature. Inhibition of CWDEs may confer resistance on susceptible hosts, offering a strategy for parasitic plant control. Here, exogenous application of green tea catechins, which inhibit pectin methylesterase (a CWDE), was used to delay parasitic plant attachment. Texas bluebonnet ...

Tillage and fertilizer effects on yield, profitability, and risk in a corn-wheat-potato-wheat rotation
Reduced tillage results in lower production costs and thus may have economic advantages for farmers. However, yield penalties, specific yield risks, or higher nutrient requirements may counteract the positive effects of reduced tillage. This study investigates long-term tillage effects (moldboard plow, and deep and shallow chisel plow) and their interactions with N fertilizer input on yields and ...

Is Water RunOff Effecting my Pond?
What is Water RunOff? Runoff is precipitation that did not get (infiltrated) absorbed into the soil, or did not evaporate, and therefore made its way from the ground surface into places that water collect. Runoff causes erosion, and also carry chemicals and substances on the ground surface along to the ponds, lakes and rivers where the water ends up. (eschooltoday.com) Phosphorus and Nitrogen ...

Nonpoint source of nutrients and herbicides associated with Sugarcane production and its impact on Louisiana coastal water quality
A watershed analysis of nonpoint-source pollution associated with sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) production was conducted. Runoff water samples following major rainfall events from two representative sugarcane fields (SC1 and SC2) were collected and analyzed. The impact of runoff on two receiving water bodies, St. James canal (SJC) and Bayou Chevreuil (BC) in a drainage basin (Baratarian ...

3,4-Dimethylpyrazole Phosphate Solution
Nitrification inhibitor refers to a class of chemical substances that inhibit the biotransformation of ammonium nitrogen into nitrate nitrogen (NCT). Nitrification inhibitors reduce the formation and accumulation of nitrate in soil so that it can reduce the loss of nitrogenous fertilizer in the form of nitrate nitrogen and the impacting on ecological environment. Some results show that, although ...

Poul-AR Valorization of poultry manure - Fertilizer and energy from poultry manure
Application In contrast with generic manure types, poultry manure is very rich in nutrients as nitrogen (N) & phosphorus (P), but also in organic material. Both the form and the N/P ratio in which the nutrients are present make the manure less suitable for direct application as natural fertilizer. It leads to the release of large and undesired amounts of volatile ammonia into the ...
