The reduction of nitrate leaching to ensure greater protection of groundwater quality has become a global issue. The development of new technologies for more accurate dosing of nitrates helps optimize fertilization programs. This paper presents the practical application of a newly developed electrochemical sensor designed for in situ quantification of nitrate. To our knowledge, this paper is th...

This work presents research materials, the purpose of which is to grow seedlings coniferous trees in open field using artificial substrates mycorrhizal macromycetes forest nurseries Central, North and Northeast Kazakhstan. The success mycorrhiza formation Pinus sylvestris Picea obovata from Akmola Karaganda regions, survival rate Akmola, Pavlodar regions Kazakhstan are analysed. In future, we w...

Some exotic ambrosia beetles are damaging pests in ornamental nurseries. Xylosandrus germanus (Blandford) is the most problematic ambrosia beetle in Ohio nurseries. Movement of X. germanus in nurseries has not been characterized, and knowledge is lacking on whether infestations originate from within nurseries or surrounding habitats. Flight activity of X. germanus was monitored in nurseries and...

In recent decades, forest nurseries in eastern Canada have been faced with periods of mild winter weather, delayed snowfall, and low seedling protective snow cover combined rains instead snowfall. These extreme conditions resulted the loss millions seedlings, particular those that overwinter outdoors, probably due to their dehardening. The main objective this study is simulate different warm we...
