Within this sector is the cultivation of roses (Rosa spp.), whose production and quality are affected by the presence of various pests and diseases. Among these pests are thrips Frankliniella occidentalis and mites Tetranychus urticae, and among the diseases are downy mildew Peronospora sparsa, powdery mildew Podosphaera pannosa and botrytis Botrytis cinerea. This problem generates large expenses in the purchase of agrochemical products for their control and management. This study analyzes the incidence of various pests and diseases in rose cultivation as a function of climatological variables (evaporation, temperature, relative humidity, and precipitation) in order to predict a future affectation. The analysis was carried out with R as programming language for the calculation of a multiple linear regression model. The results showed satisfactory prediction for the percentage incidence of each of the pests and diseases, since the difference between the predicted values and the values obtained by monitoring did not exceed 5% for the downy mildew, botrytis, mites, and thrips and 10% for the powdery mildew. The tool presented shows appropriate prediction for the possible behavior of the pests and diseases, and, thus, provides the opportunity to counteract their damage and estimate the investment required for their control. In this study, only the percentage incidence data of each of the pests and/or diseases was considered, as well as the value of the response variables in percentage incidence.","PeriodicalId":38464,"journal":{"name":"Agronomia Colombiana","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135802460","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}

Defining the sampling times for determining the average diurnal emission rates is an important step in optimizing field measurement, avoiding the influence of possible peaks. With this purpose, diurnal gas measurements (CH4 and N2O) were taken using the static chamber method during five 24 h-periods (campaigns), every 2 h, at three rice crop development stages (R2, C1 campaign; R5, C2 campaign, and R8, C3 campaign), and in post-harvest (PH, C4 campaign) and in fallow (FP, C5 campaign) periods. The CH4 fluxes remained close to the average flux both at C1 (9.4 ± 1.0 mg CH4 m-2 h-1) and C2 (10.2 ± 1.4 mg CH4 m-2 h-1), allowing the gas sampling at any time of the day, except at 5:00 p.m. when a peak was observed at C1. As the CH4 fluxes for C3, C4, and C5 were close to zero, no average value was identified. The average N2O fluxes were low at C1 (1.0 ± 5.7 μg N2O m-2 h-1) and at C4 (6.7 ± 2.6 μg N2O m-2 h-1), increasing at C2 (26.9 ± 9.3 μg N2O m-2 h-1) and C3 (21.2 ± 7.2 μg N2O m-2 h-1) and reaching higher values during the C5 campaign (73.7 ± 33.3 μg N2O m-2 h-1). In general, considering the average flux values recorded in this study, the most appropriate times for sampling N2O during the C1, C2, C3, and C4 campaigns would be from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. and also around 11:00 a.m. Average N2O flows in fallow would be more likely around 11:00 p.m. and 11 a.m.","PeriodicalId":38464,"journal":{"name":"Agronomia Colombiana","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135802336","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}

For this, three FIX model mosquito traps were placed inside the greenhouse (2.4 m high, 1.2 m apart) during one lunar cycle.

Nowadays, there is an increased demand for application of antibrowning agents. This research was aimed at the effects of using each ethanolic and aqueous apple peel extracts (EAPE, AAPE) in two concentrations (0.3 and 3%) as inhibitor agents for polyphenol oxidase activity (PPO) of quince juice and their effects on the browning index (BI), total soluble solids (TSS), pH, total titratable acidity (TA), and total phenolic content (TPC) during storage at 4°C for 15 d. The effectiveness of 3% (w/v) alcoholic apple peel extract efficiently inactivated the activities of PPO compared with another three extracts during whole refrigerated storage time. The lowest inhibition percentage value of BI was found in 0.3% AAPE supplemented quince juices. EAPE and AAPE with concentrations of 3% had significantly larger pH values than that of EAPE and AAPE with concentration 0.3% and untreated quince juices at a final day of cold storage. TA values of juice samples untreated and treated with apple extracts did not show significant changes that ranged between 74-75 mg/100 ml at the beginning of storage and decreased with increased storage time, ranging between 0.68-0.72 mg/100 ml at the end of storage. The addition of apple peel extracts during the storage of quince juice had a positive effect on TSS values of the samples.

The experiments were performed in 2014 and 2018 seasons in naturally heavily infested fields in the province of Foggia (Apulia Region, south-eastern Italy). Based on our results, the 50 cm moldboard plowing depth reduced parasite infestation by 41.2% compared to that of 30 cm depth, commonly adopted by local farmers. Higher attachments to the host plants were observed in SV5197 than in SV8840, which could be correlated with the different level of resistance of the host plant.

The treatments consisted of Control: irrigated with water and without application of vitamins; NaCl: irrigated with saline solution (50 mM NaCl, equivalent 5.18 dS m-1) and without application of vitamins; NaCl+B1: irrigated with saline solution and application of vitamin thiamine (100 mg L-1); NaCl+B3: irrigated with saline solution and application of vitamin niacin (100 mg L-1). These treatments were applied to two lettuce cultivars, “Pira Roxa” and “Valentina”. Both vitamins increased net photosynthesis when compared to the NaCl treatment. However, only the application of thiamine resulted in a mitigating effect on the losses of plant dry mass accumulation. Thus, the exogenous application of these vitamins alleviates the effects caused by salinity in lettuce plants, reducing stress on photosynthetic mechanisms and increasing photosynthetic activity. In addition, thiamine helps to reduce the deleterious effects of salinity on the accumulation of biomass.","PeriodicalId":38464,"journal":{"name":"Agronomia Colombiana","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135802459","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}
