A yield prediction model for Florida sugarcane
Abstract This paper shows how to move from the description of the growing of a crop, including most of the crop-environment interactions, to the development of regression equations intended to predict sugarcane yields. Equations to predict tonnes and per cent of recoverable sugar were estimated for south Florida.

Genetic diversity among viruses associated with sugarcane mosaic disease in Tucumán, Argentina [PDF]
Sugarcane leaves with mosaic symptoms were collected in 2006--07 in Tucumán (Argentina) and analyzed by reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and sequencing of a fragment of the Sugarcane

This study demonstrates that human hair fiber‐reinforced fly ash geopolymer composites outperform bagasse‐based counterparts at elevated temperatures. They show higher mechanical strength, less thermal weight loss, and stronger fiber–matrix bonding, making them promising sustainable reinforcements for thermally demanding applications.

We investigated the diversity and composition of termites across various habitats in the Brazilian Savanna. Studies like the one presented here enhance our understanding of the relationships and dynamics between termites and their environments. We found that termite communities were quite distinct, emphasising the importance of considering open ...

Bagasse: A Potential Organic Soil Amendment Used in Sugarcane Production
Bagasse is an agricultural by-product derived from the sugarcane milling process. It is a dry and fibrous residue left after the extraction of sugar juice from sugarcane. Over 2 million metric tons of bagasse is generated each year in South Florida, and

FaMYB63 and FvWYRKY75 Activate FvPR10.14 Boosting Strawberry Immunity Against Powdery Mildew
In response to powdery mildew infection, strawberry enhances disease immunity by activating FvPR10.14 via a MYB63/WRKY75 transcriptional module through hormone‐ and ROS‐mediated signalling pathways. ABSTRACT Powdery mildew, caused by Podosphaera aphanis, poses a significant threat to strawberry production, while current chemical controls raise ...
