Gas exchanges and photochemical efficiency of West Indian cherry cultivated with saline water and potassium fertilization [PDF]
Revista Brasileira de Engenharia Agrícola e Ambiental, 2018 The problem of the lack of adequate water resources for agriculture has intensified in recent years, making it necessary to use waters with relatively high concentration of salts for the irrigation of crops all over the world. The objective of this study

PHYSICOCHEMICAL QUALITY OF FRUITS OF WEST INDIAN CHERRY UNDER SALINE WATER IRRIGATION AND PHOSPHATE FERTILIZATION1 [PDF]
Revista Caatinga, 2020 ABSTRACT In the semiarid region of Northeastern Brazil due to the qualitative and quantitative scarcity of water resources, the use of saline water should be considered as an alternative to expand irrigated agriculture. However, the use of waters with high levels of salts depends on management practices that minimize deleterious effects on plants.

LWT - Food Science and Technology, 2005 Abstract Microfiltration (MF) with a 0.14 μm cut-off tubular ceramic membrane was used to clarify West Indian cherry juice under operating conditions of flow rate 8.0 l/min, pressure 0.2 MPa and temperatures 10–40 °C. The analytical results demonstrated that heat treatment was effective in reducing fouling layer specific resistance.

Comunicata Scientiae, 2018 Salinity is a common problem in arid and semi-arid regions, causing great damage to crop yields, and management strategies that reduce the effects of salt stress on plants are necessary. So, the aim of this study was to evaluate the interaction between salinity, nitrogen and phosphorus on water relations, gas exchange and chloroplastidic pigments of ...
