Over-tree Microsprinkler Irrigation for Spring Freeze Protection of Peaches [PDF]
HortScience, 1990 “The feasibility of using an over-tree microsprinkler irrigation system for spring freeze protection of `Loring' peach trees [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] was evaluated under a range of meteorological conditions during Winter 1988-89.

Plant Pathology, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 366-377, February 2024.A sensitive Phytophthora cinnamomi‐specific qPCR assay was developed to show that macadamia tree roots from a new root flush are more colonized by the pathogen than suberized roots, and that colonization tends to be higher in autumn and winter months. Abstract Phytophthora cinnamomi is an important soilborne pathogen causing root rot and stem cankers ...

Applied and Environmental Soil Science, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.Soil crusting (surface sealing) is widespread and serious in ecotouristic game parks and reserves in southern Africa, and especially South Africa. In this study, mineral soil crusts were found to be the problem in the Dinokeng Game Reserve (DGR), South Africa. Large areas of bare soil crusted areas were found in this reserve. The cause of this crusting

Under- and Overtree Microsprinkler Irrigation for Frost Protection of Peaches [PDF]
HortTechnology, 1993 Spring frost events reduce fruit production in the southeastern United States more than any other factor, with some losses occurring in 5 out of 7 years. Orchard heaters, wind machines, and overhead irrigation are sound methods of reducing losses, but their relatively high cost is a major deterrent for fruit growers (Castaldi, 1990)
