Methods for Rapid Screening in Woody Plant Herbicide Development
Methods for woody plant herbicide screening were assayed with the goal of reducing resources and time required to conduct preliminary screenings for new products. Rapid screening methods tested included greenhouse seedling screening, germinal screening, and seed screening. Triclopyr and eight experimental herbicides from Dow AgroSciences (DAS 313, 402, 534, 548, 602, 729, 779, and 896) were tes...
متن کاملCapuana M - Heavy metals and woody plants - biotechnologies for phytoremediation
Introduction Pollution of soil and agricultural land is a complex and serious phenomenon that in re cent decades has increased its negative ef fects on the environment. Transfer of toxic elements to human food chain is a concrete danger that has to be faced, taking into ac count the possibility for plants to accumulate and translocate contaminants to edible and harvested parts (Kloke et al. ...
متن کاملResponse of Four Container Grown Woody Ornamentals to Immature Composted Media Derived from Waxed Corrugated Cardboard
Four containerized deciduous ornamental shrubs [deutzia (Deutzia gracilis L.), silverleaf dogwood (Cornus nlba 'Elegantissima'), red-osier dogwood (Cornus sericea L.), and ninebark (Physocarpirs optilifolius L.)] were grown during each of two separate growing seasons using 12 different immature (nonaged) composts as media (year one, 12 weeks from start of windrowing; year two, 16-weeks) and als...
متن کاملEvaluating a Precision Agriculture Herbicide Decision Model for Winter Wheat
A user-friendly computerized decision model has been developed for selecting profitable site-specific herbicide applications in winter wheat. The model is based on six years of field research in southeastern Washington State, USA. The model calibrates herbicide applications to management unit weed densities, soil organic matter, soil moisture, and preceding management, as well as to expected in...
متن کاملEvaluating Ecohydrological Theories of Woody Root Distribution in the Kalahari
The contribution of savannas to global carbon storage is poorly understood, in part due to lack of knowledge of the amount of belowground biomass. In these ecosystems, the coexistence of woody and herbaceous life forms is often explained on the basis of belowground interactions among roots. However, the distribution of root biomass in savannas has seldom been investigated, and the dependence of...
