Deep application of liquid fertilizer is a technique that applies deep near the root system crops, which has many advantages such as high utilization rate and low environmental pollution. However, power specific energy consumption caused by soil-engaging components in make it difficult to popularize northeast China. The claw-toe structure burrowing animals characteristics resistance friction, b...

Furrow irrigation proceeds under several soil-water-furrow hydraulics interaction dynamics. The soil erosion consequences from such interactions in furrow irrigation in Samaru had remained uncertain. A furrow irrigation-induced erosion (FIIE) model was used to simulate the potential severity of soil erosion in irrigated furrows due to interactive effects of infiltration rates, land slope, and s...

a paper-pot transplanter was designed, developed and evaluated in the field by transplanting sugar beet seedlings grown in paper pots. a ground-driven counter wheel equipped with an infra-red sensor measures the traveled distance and sends the corresponding signals to a micro-controller. a step motor controlled by the micro-controller turns the driving shaft of the paper-pot metering mechanism ...

Cell division is achieved by a plasma membrane furrow that must ingress between the segregating chromosomes during anaphase [1-3]. The force that drives furrow ingression is generated by the actomyosin cytoskeleton, which is linked to the membrane by an as yet undefined molecular mechanism. A key component of the membrane furrow is anillin. Upon targeting to the furrow through its pleckstrin ho...

Organic farming is now recognized as the best known alternative to conventional agriculture, where cultivation and raising of crops quality food grown without any harm soil health, environmental human being microorganism present in soil. Efficient organic nutrient supply plant adequate quantities sustain most growth yield while minimizing affected by use large inorganic fertilizers pesticides w...

Existing calibration methods for contact parameters of soil discrete elements are primarily based on a single physical property (e.g., natural accumulation angle and shear characteristics). To solve this limitation, method the area difference was proposed in accordance with actual operation effect ridge furrow opener. The typical clay loam middle lower reaches Yangtze River (moisture content 20...

The Drosophila embryo undergoes a developmental transition in the blastoderm stage switching from syncytial to cellular development. The cleavage furrow, which encloses nuclei into cells, is a prominent morphological feature of this transition. It is not clear how the pattern of the furrow array is defined and how zygotic genes trigger the formation and invagination of interphase furrows. A key...

Although Aurora B is important in cleavage furrow ingression and completion during cytokinesis, the mechanism by which kinase activity is targeted to the cleavage furrow and the molecule(s) responsible for this process have remained elusive. Here, we demonstrate that an essential mitotic kinesin MKlp2 requires myosin-II for its localization to the equatorial cortex, and this event is required t...

In the eggs of the newt, Triturus pyrrhogaster, 2 separate factors are recognized which take part in cleavage furrow formation. (1) The inductive capacity for the furrow formation by the cytoplasm lying under the cortex along the cleavage furrow (FIC); and (2) the reactivity of the overlying cortex to form a furrow in response to FIC. (1) FIC. The inductive capacity is shown by the fact that FI...

We have previously visualized three Ca2+ transients, generated by release from intracellular stores, which are associated with cytokinesis during the early cell division cycles of zebrafish embryos: the furrow positioning, propagation and deepening transients. Here we demonstrate the requirement of the latter for furrow deepening, and identify the Ca2+ release channels responsible for generatin...
