So, we studied the influence of Cedrela fissilis seed storage conditions on its emergence and the morphological quality of produced seedlings. Seeds were collected in October/2011, benefited, conditioned in closed glasses, and stored in three environments for a period of 515 days. Treatments consisted of: I - seedlings produced from seeds without storage (control); II - seedlings produced from seeds stored in a dry chamber; III - seedlings produced from seeds stored in a humid chamber; IV - Seedlings produced from seeds stored in an uncontrolled environment (laboratory). Sowing was performed in 50 cm³ plastic tubes filled with decomposed pinus bark and coconut fiber (50/50 v/v) and packed in a glasshouse. The study analyzed the percentage of seedlings emergence, mean seedlings emergence time, stem diameter, total height, the ratio between total height and stem diameter, shoot length, root length, total, root and shoot dry biomass, and Dickson quality index. Seed storage proved to be a negative factor for the emergence and vigor of C. fissilis seedlings, regardless of the storage environment. In addition, seeds vigor is a preponderant factor to increase seedlings' morphological quality, such as stem diameter and height.","PeriodicalId":356623,"journal":{"name":"Global Journal of Agricultural Innovation, Research & Development","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125381351","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results revealed that combined application of recommended FYM (10 t ha-1) and NPK (160:80:80 kg ha-1) registered the highest oil yield in the main crop (211.94, 187.46 l ha-1) and in ratoon (144.36, 70.81 l ha-1) during 2015, 2016, respectively. For oil quality, the main constituents of basil essential oil have been reported and the result showed that chemical compositions of the essential oil for sweet basil were affected by fertilizers in the maincrop and ratoon during two years of the experiment. In general, application of NPK (160:80:80 kg ha-1) + FYM (10 t ha-1) i.e., T9 recorded the best quality.

Besides, arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi(AMF) also is influence on herbivores through their common host plants. Surprisingly, there are no reports about how AMF affect the responses of herbivores to warming. To close this gap, we conducted a two factors experiment to research the effects of warming, fungicide (AMF suppression), and their interaction on the development of Gynaephora menyuanensis larvae, an endemic generalist herbivore species in northeastern Tibetan Plateau, and nitrogen content of Elymus nutans, which was the main food of G. menyuanensis. Warming significantly advanced the pupation time (PT), expanded the phenomena of protandry and increased the growth rate (GR) of G. menyuanensis larvae. Fungicide not affected the development of G. menyuanensis larvae, despite their negative effects on the content of E. nutans. Warming with fungicide decreased the GR of G. menyuanensis compared with warming treatment. In other words, AMF strengthen the beneficial effects of warming to G. menyuanensis. This study provides the first evidence of the impacts of AMF on the response of herbivore to warming.","PeriodicalId":356623,"journal":{"name":"Global Journal of Agricultural Innovation, Research & Development","volume":"80 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130719734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dichloromethane extract of Lippia integrifolia that showed the highest inhibitory effect on P. aeruginosa biofilm formation, was fractionated by column chromatography using a gradient of polarity, and the activities of the fractions were evaluated. In general, the lower polar fractions inhibited biofilm in correlation with bacterial growth. However, in more polar fractions the biofilm diminution is well correlated with the inhibition of autoinducers production more than the bacterial development. The results provide scientific support for the usage of these herbs to the protection against foodborne diseases.

For every extraction process (solid-liquid separation type), the factors such as temperature, time, adjuvants, amount of processing water oxygen and processing type can be changed. Moreover, the need to production of high-quality virgin olive oil at the highest yield and minimum cost, as well as using an environmentally friendly olive oil production encourages the processing of olive oil in different forms and research of new technologies. The main goal for this purpose is to reduce the process time and increase the extraction yield along with transform the discontinuous malaxing step in a continuous phase and improve the working capacity. Another important aspect to consider is the reduction of energy requirements of the process, thereby reducing both environmental and financial costs. This trend triggered the rapid progress in the application of emerging technologies in olive processing. Ultrasounds (US), microwaves (MW), and pulsed electric fields (PEF), flash thermal conditioning (FTC) are emerging technologies that have already found application in the virgin olive oil extraction process on pilot scale plants. This paper aims to describe the basic principles of these technologies as well as the results concerning their impact on virgin olive oil yields. In this review, different technological processes being implemented in recent years to prevent the loss caused by the conventional methods in the production of olive oil and effects of these technological treatments on quality and chemical characteristics of the olive oil is gathered.","PeriodicalId":356623,"journal":{"name":"Global Journal of Agricultural Innovation, Research & Development","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-06-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126997215","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
