Subject:
Bacillus (bacteria); Macadamia; branching; cultivars; drainage; fine roots; flowering; high-throughput nucleotide sequencing; industry; orchards; pathogens; permeability; soil water; trees; viability; New South Wales; Queensland
Abstract:
... 'Abnormal vertical growth' (AVG) was recognised in Australia as a dysfunction of macadamia (Macadamia spp.) in the mid-1990s. Affected trees displayed unusually erect branching, and poor flowering and yield. Since 2002, the commercial significance of AVG, its cause, and strategies to alleviate its affects, has been studied. The cause is still unknown, and AVG remains a serious threat to orchard vi ...

In the present study, five high yield rice cultivars (Oryza sativa L. ssp. japonica) in large-scale cultivation in northeast China were determined to possess Oryza sativa L. ssp. indica-type cytoplasm using cytoplasmic subspecies-specific molecular markers. This was confi ...

Abstract:
... BACKGROUND: Key genes related to plant type traits have played very important roles in the “green revolution” by increasing lodging resistance and elevating the harvest indices of crop cultivars. Although there have been numerous achievements in the development of dwarfism and plant type in Brassica napus breeding, exploring new materials conferring oilseed rape with efficient plant types that pro ...

Abstract:
... In order to meet the linseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) oil growing demand it is necessary to understand the factors that influence the oil productivity. Among these factors, weather conditions (temperature and rainfall regime) may have an important effect on the development of the linseed plant in different growth stages and eventually on the oil productivity, in the context of a rational water use ...

Abstract:
... Though broad bean is not actually a crop of a high significance for Albanian agriculture, its use is constantly increased. Hence there is also an increased interest of identification of best genotypes in terms of yield, protein content and biomass. For that purpose, seeds of 12 different genotypes received from Albanian Genetic Bank were sown in pyramidal foam trays filled with peat and kept in a ...

Abstract:
... Background and Aims Root diameter, especially apical diameter, plays an important role in root development and function. The variation in diameter between roots, and along roots, affects root structure and thus the root system’s overall foraging performance. However, the effect of diameter variation on root elongation, branching and topological connections has not been examined systematically in a ...

Abstract:
... Tree architecture describes plant form by defining the spatial organization of different structures. Shoot branching is an important step in understanding the tree architecture. Such studies are required for analyzing phenotypic diversity of plant architecture. Because such studies are rare on fig trees, the architecture diversity among nine Tunisian fig cultivars grown in Chott-Mariem (center-eas ...

Abstract:
... Well-feathered apple trees are essential for commercial orchards to optimize yields. However, most cultivars do not form these sylleptic branches readily in commercial nurseries due to high apical dominance. Several treatments exist to promote their formation in the nurseries, one of which is heading. However, not all cultivars are expected to react similarly to these treatments. We studied the br ...

Abstract:
... Significant progress in plant breeding and molecular genetics contributed to the development of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) genotypes/cultivars whose biomass (mainly seeds) can be used for a variety of purposes. Those advancements are also used to modify rapeseed production technologies. In systems with many production factors, agronomic measures exert direct and indirect (interaction) effects on ...
