Book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences

Download or read book Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences written by Wade H. Shafer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1 957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 32 (thesis year 1987) a total of 12,483 theses titles from 22 Canadian and 176 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 32 reports theses submitted in 1987, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

Book Plant Growth Regulators and Their Effect on Yield of Wheat  Triticum Aestivum L   in Southern Australia

Download or read book Plant Growth Regulators and Their Effect on Yield of Wheat Triticum Aestivum L in Southern Australia written by Jaron Tomys Bennett and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Plant growth regulators (PGRs) shorten the straw of cereals and have been used commercially to control lodging in regions of high rainfall for many years. PGRs have been shown not only to reduce height, but affect yield formation processes such as dry matter accumulation, distribution and the principle yield components in the absence of lodging. The use of the anti-gibberellin PGRs such as Trinexapac Ethyl (Moddus) and Chlormequat Chloride (Cycocel) have only recently been considered as a means of increasing yield in dryland wheat production systems. However, results have been inconsistent and seem to vary with the type of PGR, rate, growth stage of application, environment and cultivar. The experiments reported here were designed to investigate the potential of PGRs to increase yields in dryland wheat production systems of the southern Australian wheat belt. Moddus and Cycocel (collectively to be referred to as PGRs) were applied in the field, at two locations, Wagga Wagga in the NSW Riverina using the variety EGA Gregory and Swan Hill in the Victorian Northern Mallee using the variety Yitpi. Crops were sprayed with varying rates and combinations of Moddus and/or Cycocel applied at three different crop growth stages, GS 13/15, GS 25/29 and GS 31/31. Measurements of crop height, canopy greenness, lodging, stem non-structured carbohydrates (NSC), dry matter production and yield and its principle components were taken to evaluate the effects of the PGRs."--Abstract.

Book Physiology of Stressed Crops  Vol  1

Download or read book Physiology of Stressed Crops Vol 1 written by U S Gupta and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-10-24 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present multi-volume treatise has been planned to discuss important aspects of the crop-plant physiological aspects, viz., hormones, nutrients, cell membranes, and induced proteins, as related to different types of stresses each in separate volumes. Another type of stress which can be classed under biotic, environmental (sil) or chemical, viz., the stress of allelochemicals which has not been discussed before as a stress factor, will be discussed in a separate volume emphasizing its practical/ ap-plied aspects, rather than mentioning only the allelopathic effects. In this volume on Hormone Relations, different stresses have been arranged in order of their importance and work done.

Book Plant Growth Regulators Effects on Vegative Growth  Yield and Yield Components in Winter Wheat

Download or read book Plant Growth Regulators Effects on Vegative Growth Yield and Yield Components in Winter Wheat written by Mohammed A. M. Alghamdi and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three glasshouse experiments and one field experiment were carried out to investigate the effect of the plant growth regulator on vegetative growth and yield components of reduced height isogenic lines of the wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar Mercia. The first experiment compared the growth regulator response of seven isogenic lines of Mercia. Subsequent experiments used four lines, (Mercia control, Rhtl Rht2, and Rht8). Two glasshouse experiments examined the responses under well watered and water stress conditions. The third glasshouse experiment examined rates and time of application under well watered conditions, whilst the field experiment had different rates of application. In all experiments growth regulators reduced plant height significantly in all lines. Growth regulator decreased total dry matter and grain yield with greatest reduction generally for the control and Rht8 lines. Rhtl was the least affected. There were few significant effects of growth regulator on gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence but the trend was for greater values with growth regulator. In the first glasshouse experiment, a rate of 2.0 1 ha-1 applied just before the third node detectable stage under non water stressed and water stressed conditions gave slight increases in yield of up to 14% except for line Rht10 which increased significantly in non-stressed conditions. In the second glasshouse experiment, a rate of 2.5 1 ha" applied at the start of stem elongation under 30% FC and 100% FC gave reductions in yield up to 16% for the growth regulator and 55% under water stress. In the field experiment, rates of 2.5 and 3.0 1 ha-1 applied at the start of stem elongation gave reductions in yield up to 20% mainly through individual seed weight. In the final glasshouse experiment, rates of 2.5 and 3.0 1 ha-l applied at 6 leaves unfolded and 1st node detectable both reduced grain yield.

Download or read book Wheat written by W. Bushuk and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wheat provides over 20% of the calories for the world population of 5. 3 billion persons. It is widely grown in five of the six continents. It is a highly versatile food product in that it can be stored safely for long periods of time and transported in bulk over long distances. In relative terms, it is reasonably priced; over the past quarter century, the inflation-adjusted price of wheat has been declining. Modern milling and baking technology required for the transformation of wheat grain into consumable baked products is available or accessible in all countries of the world. For these reasons, and because Canada is one of world's leading wheat producing countries, it seemed appropriate to include a major symposium on wheat in the scientific and technical program of the 8th World Congress of Food Science and Technology held in Toronto, Canada during September 29-0ctober 4, 1992. In selecting the topics for the symposium on wheat, we attempted to cover a full range of subjects including economics and marketing, nutrition, grading, processing, constituent chemistry and functionality, biote- nology, and safety of genetically modified wheat varieties. The major focus was on common hard (bread) wheats; separate papers were devoted to the unique characteristics and technological properties of common soft (biscuit) and durum (pasta) wheats. Each paper was presented by an acknowledged international expert. This book provides a more permanent record of the papers presented at the symposium.
