Abstract:
... 1. There are two maximum periods of blooming in millet, one between 4 and 7 a. m. and another between 9 p. m. and midnight. In 1933, when the temperature was cooler, the first maximum was three times as high as the second. In 1934, when the temperature was higher, both periods were of about the same intensity. There was practically no blooming between noon and 6 p. m. 2. The rate of blooming was n ...

Setaria italica; crossing; temperature; humidity; inflorescences
Abstract:
... In determining a correct technic for the crossing of millet, the study of the flowering habits of the plant is an absolute necessity. The writers have made four sets of observations in two different years, comprising 50 heads of 18 pure varieties. The flowering of millet commences on the fifth day after the emergence of the spike, while the peak occurs on the ninth day. An average period of 12 day ...

Abstract:
... In varietal trials with millet, the closer the plants are set in the row, the higher will be the yield in that row no matter whether one is dealing with a free-tillering variety or non-tillering varieties. With a freeing tillering variety, the loss in number of plants per row will be compensated by the increase in number of tillers when the distance between plants in the row is increased. With non ...

Abstract:
... We investigated the molecular bases for resistance to several classes of herbicides that bind tubulins in green foxtail (Setaria viridis L. Beauv.). We identified two alpha- and two beta-tubulin genes in green foxtail. Sequence comparison between resistant and sensitive plants revealed two mutations, a leucine-to-phenylalanine change at position 136 and a threonine-to-isoleucine change at position ...

Abstract:
... A foxtail millet (Setaria italica L. Beauv.) line resistant to atrazine was obtained through interspecific hybridization between wild S. viridis L. Beauv. and cultivated S. italica. The resistance was proved to be controlled by a chloroplast-inherited gene and it has further been utilized in foxtail millet production. However, the sequence information of the putative atrazine resistance gene, psbA ...

Abstract:
... Multiproxies of past environmental conditions, comprising 53 sediment samples analysed for their lithostratigraphic properties (mainly their charcoal, phytoliths and pollen contents) from an AMS ¹⁴C-dated sequence of sediments accumulating at Guangfulin, Yangtze delta, are presented. The oldest sediments recovered date to the Lateglacial when a mosaic of mixed (conifer-deciduous) temperate forest ...

Abstract:
... The Waxy (Wx) gene product controls the formation of a straight chain polymer of amylose in the starch pathway. Dominance/recessiveness of the Wx allele is associated with amylose content, leading to non-waxy/waxy phenotypes. For a total of 113 foxtail millet accessions, agronomic traits and the molecular differences of the Wx gene were surveyed to evaluate genetic diversities. Molecular types wer ...

Abstract:
... Efficient strains of bacterial antagonists for Magnaporthe grisea were identified through laboratory dual-plate assays. Two bacterial strains of Pseudomonas fluorescens and two strains of Bacillus were tested against 30 isolates of M. grisea that cause Setaria blast for their inhibition of the fungus. On plates spread with the fungus mycelium, 12 of the isolates had a zone of inhibition caused by ...
