In this study, the effect of some pre-treatments (conventional and 40 kHz 200 W ultrasound soaking) on corn drying was studied. One-hour pre-treated samples were dried at 80, 90 100 °C in laboratory type convective air dryer for 240 min time. The moisture contents physical characteristics such as length, width, thickness, equivalent diameter, volume, sphericity, thousand kernel weight hectolite...

The objective with the work was to evaluate, during storage, rice seeds physical and physiological quality, cultivar IRGA 424 RI, dried different drying air temperatures. For such, were harvested a moisture content of 22%. Then, they subjected in cross-flow dryer, operating an intermittent system using 55 65 ºC After, samples containing 50 kg stored PP Woven Bags for 240 days. After every 60 da...

background and objectives: currently nearly 70% of the area under cultivation of a milliard hectares of the world, devoted to cereals as well as about half of the total dietary needs of people, especially in asia directly from cereals sources. factors affecting wheat quality includes the chemical, physical, qualitative and farming. since each grain products requires the use of flour with specia...

ABSTRACT Mixed models and multivariate analysis are powerful tools for selecting superior genotypes in plant breeding programs. The BLUP (best linear unbiased prediction) method has been used to predict genetic values without environmental effects. Furthermore, the FAI-BLUP (ideotype-design index) procedure is especially valuable because of multiple-trait selection. This study aimed determine p...

Let k ≥ 4, and let H1, H2 be connected graphs with |V (Hi)| ≥ 3 for i = 1, 2. A graph G is said to be {H1, . . . , Hl}-free if none of H1, . . . , Hl is an induced subgraph of G. We prove that if there exists a positive integer n0 such that every {H1, H2}-free graph G with |V (G)| ≥ n0 and δ(G) ≥ 3 contains k vertex-disjoint claws, then {H1, H2} ∩ {K1,t | t ≥ 2} = ∅. Also, we prove that every K...

This study was conducted under Cumra ecological conditions between 2019 and 2020 in order to determine theperformance of some KWS hybrid corn varieties (V1; Kerbanis, V2; Kefieros, V3; Kontigos, V4; Kefrancos,V5; 2572) belonging different maturity groups. When the results obtained both years wereevaluated together, it seen that highest leaf number, grain protein content, lowest stalk lodgingval...

This study identified single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers associated with 15 complex traits in a breeding population of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) consisting of 137 recombinant chromosome substitution lines (RCSL), evaluated under contrasting water availability conditions in the Mediterranean climatic region of central Chile. Given that markers showed a very strong segregation distort...

Demand is increasing for locally grown malt barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) in northeastern North America, driven primarily by growth the craft beer sector. A multi-site experiment was conducted to evaluate how variety (V), seeding rate (S), and nitrogen (N) fertilizer affect quality northeast. Two varieties (Cerveza Newdale), two rates (200 400 seeds m ?2 ), five of actual applied N fertility (0, ...
