Abstract Trinexapac‐ethyl (TE) is a plant growth regulator commonly used in cereal production systems. It retards by inhibiting gibberellin (GA) biosynthesis, thereby reducing the risk of stem lodging. Lodging at latter stages crop development can compromise grain yield and quality. Thus, application TE may protect quality winter cereals. A field study was conducted from 2014 to 2017 across Can...

This study contributes by analyzing the economic effects of China’s distribution industry based on 2012 and 2017 input-output data. It analyzes changes in forward backward linkage effect over a five-year period accordance with Chinese government’s policy. The coefficients industry, using Input-Output Tables comparative analysis sensitivity dispersion, were determined. In terms coefficient influ...

Cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD) catalyses the final step in the biosynthesis of monolignols. In the present study, a cDNA encoding a CAD was isolated from wheat, designated as TaCAD1. A genome-wide data mining in the wheat EST database revealed another 10 CAD-like homologues, namely TaCAD2 to TaCAD11. A phylogenetic analysis showed that TaCAD1 belonged to the bona fide CAD group involved i...

Increasing plant density is one of the most efficient ways of increasing wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain production. However, overly dense plant populations have an increased risk of lodging. We examined lignin deposition during wheat stem development and the regulatory effects of plant density using the wheat cultivars shannong23 and weimai8. Plants were cultivated at densities of 75, 225 a...

Thermal dose-survival curves for normal hematopoietic and leukemia cells were assessed by spleen colony assays after in vitro heat exposure ranging from 41 degrees to 45 degrees. No effect of 43 degrees heat treatment on the fraction of cells lodging in the spleen was observed. Marked differences in heat sensitivity were observed between normal, L1210, and AKR leukemia cells, the first being le...

An unusual case of constrictive pericarditis, caused by lodging of a needle in the heart wall, is presented and discussed. Attention is focused on the rapid development of the constriction and the benefit gained from surgical intervention.

Lodging can reduce the yield and quality of oats (Avena sativa L.). Root lodging, as opposed to stem is predominant form lodging in oats. Therefore, identifying management practices that enhance root resistance should be prioritized. The objective this study was investigate effect four on oat grain yield, components, quality, observed plant traits contribute resistance. Row spacing seeding dept...

Many lodging companies now find themselves in a challenging position. They are finding it more difficult to attract capital as the industry's growth begins to stabilize due to the inherent cycles and the onset of supply growth. Companies seeking growth and access to public financing must confront questions regarding the best structure as the marketplace changes. Many hotel companies are hybrid ...
