Antennal sensilla are important functional elements of sensory systems in insects. This study aimed to determine the morphology and structure two species genus Hoplopyga. Adults Hoplopyga liturata (Olivier, 1789) were collected traps with sugarcane juice as an attractant. Thereafter, larvae albiventris (Gory Percheron, 1833) mounds termites (Cornitermes cumulans (Kollar, 1832) Isoptera). Then, ...

are enhanced. Sugarcane germination can also be promoted by increasing soil Ca (Mohandas et al., 1983). Louisiana sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is produced mainly on For some crops, gypsum is effective in reducing the heavy-textured soils that offer less than ideal conditions for growth and function of the root system. Cultural practices that improve the incidence of soil-borne diseases (Kao and K...

Background: Sugarcane is widely consumed by people of the tropics and subtropics. Antioxidants in concentrated sugarcane extracts extracted from sugarcane products using resins are highly stable, and their antioxidant activity is not significantly reduced by prolonged heating or clarification. Methods and Results: This study investigated the extraction processing and evaluated the antioxidant a...

ing characteristics could be investigated. Finally the pilot plant A single tube plant Kestner evaporator'was set up at was run under 1st effect conditions in order that a comparison Illovo to investigate heat transfer characteristics when could be made with industrial 1st effect evaporators (both simulating different evaporator Tests carried out have Roberts and Kestner). This particular trial...

ROUTINE ANALYSES of quality components of sugarcane for calibration development of near infra-red spectroscopic applications are enhanced if hydraulic press extraction of juice is used. This results in high-level extraction comparable to that achieved by the first mill in a commercial milling train. A bonus is that fibre also can be estimated with this process. Scepticism has been expressed wit...

sugarcane mite, oligonychus sacchari mcgregor, is one of the most important pests of sugarcane plant in khuzestan province, southwest of iran. during a two-year study (2007-2008), the biology of the sugarcane mite, o. sacchari, was investigated on three commercial varieties cp48-103, cp57-614 and cp69-1062 under laboratory conditions (temperature 30±1° c, rh% 60±5 and a photoperiod of 16:8 (l:d...
