Abstract:
... Japanese apricot blooms in mid-winter, and thus severe weather conditions, including low temperatures, sometimes limit pollinator activity and consequently decrease fruit set rate and yield. Plant physiology is also affected by weather conditions. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the effect of pollinator activity on fruit set rate and yield, in comparison with the effects of meteorological fact ...

Abstract:
... Jujube (Zizyphus jujuba Miller var. inermis Rehder) is highly susceptible to jujube gall midge (Dasineura jujubifolia Jiao & Bu) larvae infestation, which causes rolled leaf damage, leaf galls, discoloration, and a decline in fruit yield. In this study, we demonstrate the larvicidal potential of cuticle-degrading chitinase and protease produced by Bacillus velezensis CE 100 against jujube gall mid ...

Abstract:
... Blossom-end rot (BER) is a physiological disorder related to calcium (Ca) deficiency in tomato fruits. However, adequate Ca supply is not sufficient to inhibit the BER incidence. The Ni-Ca interaction has increased the Ca content in Ni hyperaccumulators plants. However, studies with commercial plants are still incipient. The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of Ni-Ca interaction in ...
