Accumulation and risk assessment of antibiotics in edible plants grown in contaminated farmlands: A review.

Science of the Total Environment, 2022
The extensive occurrence of antibiotics in farmland soil might threaten food safety. The bioaccumulation potential of antibiotics in edible vegetables and crops grown under realistic farming scenarios was reviewed and the human health risk was assessed ...

Dry Weight Accumulation and Nutrient Uptake by Arracacha Grown Under Controlled Conditions

1998
In Puerto Rico, the commerciaI production ofarraeaeha (Arracacia xanlhon-hiza) is concentrated in low fertility soils. Crop development and yield depend heavily upon supplementary fertilization. Information on arracaeha's growth and nutrient uptake is scarce.

Dynamics of Dry Matter Accumulation in the Developing Grains of Three Wheat Genotypes with Contrasting Grain Weight

Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science, 1996
AbstractThe accumulation of dry matter and its major components was studied in developing grains of two bold seeded (Selection‐111 and IWP‐5308) and one small seeded (kalyansona) wheat genotypes grown in pot culture condition. It was observed that in kalyansona, a sharp reduction in grain water content during the critical stage of grain enlargement ...

The effect of irrigation level in the kernel dry matter accumulation period on almond yield, kernel dry weight, fruit count, and canopy size

Irrigation Science, 2017
The effect of irrigation regime in the kernel filling stage of almond was examined in a field experiment. The experiment was conducted on 9-year-old local variety (Um-El-Fahem) grafted on GF677 rootstock in Israel. Five irrigation treatments were applied during the main kernel dry matter accumulation.

The effect of stress environment towards lipid accumulation in microalgae after harvesting

, 2020
Microalgae have been recognized as a potential feedstock for biodiesel production due to their fast growth rate and ability to accumulate lipid within their cells.

Growth and Sugar Accumulation of Sugarcane. II. Dry Weight Increments and Estimates of Assimilation Rate

Experimental Agriculture, 1977
SUMMARYIncrements of fibre, sucrose and reducing sugars per cane were estimated for 12 varieties of sugarcane for successive periods in plant and ratoon crops. Sucrose production increased only as that of fibre and reducing sugars fell. Dry matter production per unit fresh weight of leaf blade was negatively correlated with an estimate of gram days of ...

Net Carbon Exchange Rates of Field-Grown Crops in Relation to Irradiance and Dry Weight Accumulation

Australian Journal of Plant Physiology, 1977
A range of summer and winter vegetable crops has been grown under favourable conditions, and the relation between net carbon exchange and irradiance determined at several stages of growth, using large field assimilation chambers and semi-closed gas analysis systems. For all crops, leaf area index was an important determinant of net carbon exchange rate
