Abstract:

Abstract A limited supply of pine bark (PB) over the past several years has caused concern among many nursery producers. In continuing the search for alternative substrates and working to quantify the extent to which substrates can be amended with high wood content alternatives, this study was developed to evaluate substrate treatments comprised of PB with 25, 50, and 75% clean chip residual (CCR) or WholeTree substrate (WT), as well as 100% substrates of each high wood fiber substrate. By 180 and 365 DAT, pH and electrical conductivity (EC) values for all treatments were similar to those of t

Abstract:

The efficiency of forest species production is associated with the seedlings quality. Hence, the substrate used is a determining factor in crop productivity, such as eucalyptus. Thus, the physical and chemical parameters of alternative and sustainable substrates were evaluated using coconut fiber and vermicompost in the production of Corymbia citriodora seedlings. Plants performance and quality were also evaluated by determining plant biomass and Dickson’s quality index, with or without mineral supplementation during cultivation. Results revealed that the proposed substrates obtained good phys

Abstract:

ABSTRACT It is frequently assumed that populations of genetically modified microorganisms will perform their intended function and then disappear from the environment due to inherent fitness disadvantages resulting from their genetic alteration. However, modified organisms used in bioremediation can be expected to adapt evolutionarily to growth on the anthropogenic substrate that they are intended to degrade. If such adaptation results in improved competitiveness for alternative, naturally occurring substrates, then this will increase the likelihood that the modified organisms will persist in

Abstract:

Processed pine wood (Pinus sp.) has been investigated as a component in greenhouse and nursery substrates for many years. Specifically, pine wood chips (PWC) have been uniquely engineered/processed into a nonfiberous blockular particle size, suitable for use as a substrate aggregate. In container substrates, nitrogen (N) tie-up during crop production is of concern when substrates contain components with high carbon (C):N ratios, like that of PWC that are made from fresh pine wood. The objective of this research was to compare the N requirements of plants grown in sphagnum peat–based substrates

However, at 10% and 20% (v/v), neither size of bone resulted in as high an air-filled pore space as equivalent amounts of perlite. At 30% and 40%, incorporation of small bone resulted in a similar air-filled pore space as incorporation of equivalent amounts of perlite, and incorpor

Chip Scale Packaging (CSP) and multi-chip modules (MCM) have continued to decrease in size and increase in functionality, moving closer to be more like flip chip technology. Improvements in wafer structuring allow for tremendous possibilities for device functionality; however a limit does exists on what traditional substrate fabrication methods will allow.

Abstract:

 It is important to look for alternative substrates to replace non-renewable resources such as peat used in growing media in horticulture. The aim of this work was to evaluate if the compost of pear and apple pomace could be used as an alternative to a commercial substrate for the production of tomato seedlings. Two experiments were carried out on trays with alveoli of 100 cm3 (experiment 1) and 30 cm3 (experiment 2). In experiment 1, three substrates were used: commercial substrate (CS), mixture of CS and pomace compost (CS+C) and pure compost (C). In experiment 2 a fourth treatment wit

Abstract:

There are many residues that can be used for agriculture, especially as a substrate. However, it is often necessary to fertilize the growing media so that the seedlings can be produced with quality. The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of alternative and commercial substrates associated with different controlled-release fertilizer levels in producing yellow passion fruit seedlings. The experiment was conducted at the Embrapa Acre seedling nursery, with 50% luminosity. We used a randomized block experimental design in a 5 x 3 factorial scheme with 15 treatments, 4 replicates, and

Abstract Loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) bark availability has decreased, causing shortages in inventory and increased prices for pine bark substrates. One potential alternative to pine bark is the use of biofuel or biomass crops that can be grown locally, harvested, and processed into a suitable substrate. The objective of this research was to assess the suitability of several biofuel crops as alternatives to pine bark in nursery substrates using annual vinca (Catharanthus roseus) as a model crop. Across two experiments, switchgrass (Panicum virgatum), willow (Salix spp.), corn (Zea mays) stover,

Abstract There are an increasing number of electronics applications in aerospace, automotive, shale/gas and power management, which are required to operate at or above 200 °C. Organic matrix reinforced substrates such as polyimide, have maximum operating temperatures in the region of 175 °C. Reliable operation of electronics at temperatures higher than this requires a combination of performance improvements in components, interconnects and substrates. Ceramic based substrate options are based on alumina substrates with printed inks fired at ~ 600 °C and can be costly, heavy and prone to mechan

Irrigation and growing substrate are considered as essential cultivation practices in order to obtain good productive and qualitative performance of potted rosemary plants. In pot growing, the chemical, physical and biological characteristics of the substrate must be stable over time in order to allow regular plant growth. However, the effects of cultivation techniques on the characteristics of potted rosemary are little known. Peat is traditionally used as the organic growing medium; however, despite numerous advantages, its use has determined a degradation of peatlands in the northern hemisp

Abstract Three experiments were conducted to evaluate the influence of alternative substrates on herbicide efficacy in container grown nursery crops. In Experiment 1, alternative substrates evaluated were either pine wood chips hammer-milled, to pass between 0.48 cm (0.19 in) screen (PWCH1) or 0.64 cm (0.25 in) screen (PWCH2), whole pine trees chipped or hammer-milled (WTCH), to pass between a 0.48 cm (0.19 in) screen, or the previously mentioned combined with pinebark. A commercial pine bark substrate (PB) with a 6: 1 (by vol) ratio of pine bark to sand was maintained as a control treatment.

Abstract:

Peat moss is the main component used in soilless greenhouse substrates and is thus in high demand commercially. Due to both perceived environmental and economic concerns associated with peat harvest and production, an increased search for alternative substrates has occurred. A majority of the viable alternatives available to growers are wood-based substrates. These substrates are readily available and could be considered more sustainable, depending on geographic location, than peat moss. One example of these wood-based substrates is eastern redcedar (Juniperus virginiana L.). The objectives of

The objective of this work was to evaluate the use of the carnauba agroindustrial residue (RC) in the alternative substrate composition for the formation of watermelon seedlings. The experiment was conducted at the Campus Professor Cinobelina Elvas, Federal University of Piauí, Bom Jesus, Piauí.
