The current bacterial wilt infestation level in the potato fields in the Peruvian Andes was investigated by collecting stem samples from wilted plants and detecting Ralstonia solanacearum. In total 39 farmers’ fields located in the central and northern Peru between the altitudes 2111 and 3742 m a...

Etiology of "amachamiento" "(sterility") in Phaseolus vulgaris in Costa Rica. In the last decade the problem known as "amachamiento" ("sterility") has been increasing in the main bean production regions of Costa Rica. This problem consists of a reduction of 24% - 50% in the production of affected...

A review of genetic and environmental influences on the growth of sheep and goats in West and Central Africa shows that the effects of year, season, month, type of birth, flock, parity, ewe/ doe and breed are important. Most of the work has been on sheep. The effects of year, season and month of ...

Recently, members of the MATE family have been implicated in aluminium (Al) tolerance by facilitating citrate efflux in plants. The aim of the present work was to perform a molecular characterisation of the MATE2 gene in bread wheat.
Here, we cloned a member of the MATE gene family in bread wheat...

In this study, sulphur transport processes and effect of flow rate on sulphate breakthrough curves (BTCs) were studied on six undisturbed large soil monoliths (each having roughly a volume of 0.5 m3), collected from two different agricultural soils being loamy and sandy loam. In the laboratory, e...

The repeatability and heritability of body weight, greasy fleece weight and mean fibre diameter, as well as various subjective fleece traits of South African Angora goats were estimated. The first of two data sets analysed, was collected through the Angora goat performance-testing scheme (AGPTS),...
