Rubus chamaemorus; Sphagnum; crabs; fish meal; flowering; fruit yield; habitats; lichens; mineral fertilizers; mineralization; nutrients; organic fertilizers; peatlands; plant growth; potassium chloride; small fruits; soil; Quebec
Abstract:
... Natural peatlands are an important source of berries in northern countries. One possible avenue to improve crop yield in natural peatlands is to apply fertilizers, ombrotrophic peatlands being very low in nutrients. In order to reduce the impact of this practice on an otherwise natural habitat, slow-release organic fertilizers might be more appropriate than mineral fertilizers. However, mineraliza ...

Abstract:
... Tomato is an important vegetable widely grown in the tropics due to its nutritional value and financial benefits for farmers. In Ghana, there is an undersupply caused by production ceasing entirely from October to May due to high temperatures. Heat stress has been reported to cause excessive flower drop leading to drastic reduction in yield; however, genotypic differences in heat tolerance exist i ...

agronomic traits; backcrossing; flowering; fruit yield; fruits; genes; genotype; heat tolerance; microsatellite repeats; parents; phenotype; plant height; temperature; Malaysia
Abstract:
... Domestic production of chilli in Malaysia is insufficient which accounted for 52% self-sufficiency level. Poor performance of local varieties under high temperatures above 42°C is one of the major factors affecting chilli production. This study was conducted with the objective of introgress heat-tolerant gene (Hsps) from AVPP0702 donor into Kulai using marker-assisted backcrossing. A total of 68 S ...
