This study evaluated whether grass intercropping can be used to alleviate Fe deficiency chlorosis in dry beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) grown in high pH, calcareous soils with low organic matter. Field studies were conducted at the University of Wyoming Sustainable Agriculture Research and Extension Center in 2009 and 2010. Black- and navy beans were grown alone or intercropped with annual ryegr...

A small coryneform bacterium was consistently isolated from sugarcane with ratoon stunting disease and shown to be the causal agent. A similar bacterium was isolated from Bermuda grass. Both strains multiplied in sugarcane and Bermuda grass, but the Bermuda grass strain did not incite the symptoms of ratoon stunting disease in sugarcane. Shoot growth in Bermuda grass was retarded by both strains.

Grass rendering is needed for many outdoor scenes, but for real-time applications, rendering each blade of grass as geometry has been too expensive so far. This is why grass is most often drawn as a texture mapped onto the ground or grass patches rendered as transparent billboard quads. Recent approaches use geometry for blades that are near the camera and flat geometry for rendering further aw...

a list of 20 species of the subfamily tephritinae (diptera: tephritidae) from the urmia region (azarbaijan-e gharbi province, iran) is presented. the specimens were collected during 2005-2008 from six different localities. adults were obtained from overwintering and mature seed heads of 17 plant species of asteraceae. the species, urophora xanthippe (munro, 1934) is newly recorded for the fauna...

a faunistic list of syrphidae sampled in the agroecosystems of neyshabur (khorasan-razavi province) through malaise, yellow water traps and hand net is hereby presented for the first time. a total of 22 species were collected, including 13 species through malaise trap, 5 through yellow water trap as well as representatives of all species sampled through hand net. among the species collected, 8 ...

Part I of this two part study reviews the development and characteristics of artificial grass, and the influence of this surface on the American football player. Artificial grass was initially developed to provide city children with increased play space and thus enable them to maintain a fitness level equal to their peers in more rural locales. Today, artificial grass fields allow for increased...
