Influence of Root System Characteristics on Black Spruce Seedling Responses to Limiting Conditions

Plants, 2019
Roots directly affect planted seedling adaptation to new growing conditions at reforestation sites. To test the influence of root characteristics on the short-term response of seedlings to limiting resources (water, nutrient, or oxygen), we conducted two

Design of and Experiment on Open-and-Close Seedling Pick-Up Manipulator with Four Fingers

Agriculture, 2022
With the aim to solve the problems of plug seedlings being damaged and the low success rate in the process of picking up seedlings, an open-and-close seedling picking manipulator with four fingers was designed.

Structure design and Simulation of Plug-seedling gripping device [PDF]

Proceedings of the 2016 International Conference on Mechanics, Materials and Structural Engineering, 2016
Transplanting of plug-seedling is an important method for seedling transplanting. Considering the problems existing in the transplanting of plug-seedling, a new plug-seedling gripping device based on mechanical finger was designed using Solidworks in this paper.

Molecular Engineering Mediated Interfacial Assembly as an Artificial Extracellular Matrix Remolds Bacteria With Enhanced Abiotic Resilience

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A biomimetic artificial extracellular matrix is assembled directly on Pseudomonas fluorescens by co‐assembling amyloid‐like lysozyme and alginate at the cell surface. This conformal nanocoating acts as both a hydration buffer and a physiological priming layer, markedly enhancing desiccation tolerance, seed adhesion, storage stability, and biocontrol ...

Improved lightweight health identification method for plug seedling based on FPGA

Smart Agricultural Technology
The use of programmable FPGA instead of traditional PC computer can greatly reduce the processor volume, and accelerate the running speed of traditional algorithm for plug seedling information acquisition which can reduce the processor cost.

Effects of Storage Temperature on Carbohydrate Content and Seedling Quality of Cabbage Plug Seedlings.

Environment Control in Biology, 1999
The effects of storage temperature on plant growth and carbohydrate content during low-temperature storage and on photosynthesis and growth of transplants after the end of storage were studied in cabbage plug seedlings. Plants were stored in the dark for 14 d at 5, 10 and 15°C.

A comprehensive checklist of Mediterranean wild edible plants: Diversity, traditional uses, and knowledge gaps

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The use of wild edible plants and the traditional knowledge associated with them are rapidly disappearing across the Mediterranean, with serious consequences for biodiversity, cultural heritage, and regional food security. This study compiles and organizes fragmented information to create the first comprehensive catalogue of these plants across the ...

Uniformity of Impatiens Plug Seedling Growth in Controlled Environments [PDF]

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 1991
Uniformity of growth response of impatiens (Impatiems wallerana Hook. f.) plug seedlings was examined in four identical growth rooms. Differences among growth rooms for dry weight, height, and leaf area of 10- to 24-day-old seedlings were generally not significant. During six experiments over

Effects of bioinsecticide exposure route on aphids and their natural enemies in oilseed rape

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Fatty acids, silicone polymers and surfactants reduced aphid numbers but caused natural enemy mortality under direct exposure, while minimal residual activity suggests potential for targeted, compatible use in integrated pest management. Abstract BACKGROUND Myzus persicae Sulzer and Brevicoryne brassicae L.

Temporal dynamics of co‐inoculation of Leptosphaeria maculans and Leptosphaeria biglobosa determine interspecific competition and disease development on oilseed rape

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study provides evidence that the timing of co‐inoculation of Leptosphaeria maculans and Leptosphaeria biglobosa determine the outcome of interspecific competition and disease development on their host oilseed rape. Abstract BACKGROUND Phoma stem canker is one of the most economically damaging diseases of oilseed rape, caused by co‐existing fungal ...
