In 2004, Xiphopenaeus kroyeri, one of major species in commercial fisheries Brazil was included the list brazilian overfished and, 2006, two cryptic were identified Atlantic Ocean by molecular approaches: sp. I and II. 2019, Carvalho-Batista et al. described both II these named X. kroyeri dincao, respectively. This study aimed at performing morphometric analysis order to identify potential fish...

Rye (Secale cereale L.) is one of the most important bread grains in colder parts of Europe and its importance has been rising recently. The chemical composition of rye grain promises health benefits and it contributes to higher intake of dietary fibre. Conversely, rye baking performance is not as good as required. The baking quality is mainly affected by the activity of amylases measured as Ha...

The dynamics of Poaceae pollen season, in particularly that of the Secale genus, in Szczecin (western Poland) 2004-2008 was analysed to establish a relationship between the meteorological variables, air pollution and the pollen count of the taxa studied. Consecutive phases during the pollen season were defined for each taxon (1, 2.5, 5, 25, 50, 75, 95, 97.5, 99% of annual total), and duration o...

During a 6-year study of 1-, 2-, and 3-year crop rotations, population densities of Pratylenchus brachyurus, Trichodorus christiei, and Meloidogyne incognita were significantly affected by the choice of crops but not by length of crop rotation. The density of P. brachyurus and T. christiei increased rapidly on milo (Sorghum vulgate). In addition, populations of P. brachyurus increased significa...

The yield of rainfed crops is commonly limited by the availability of soil water during the summer growing season. Channels produced by cover crop roots in fall/winter when soils are relatively moist may facilitate the penetration of compacted soils by subsequent crop roots in summer when soils are relatively dry and hard. Our objective was to determine the effects of fall cover crops on maize ...
