Abstract:
A large number of weed seeds in the soil persist because of seed dormancy, and depletion of the seed bank through manipulation of seed dormancy has been suggested as one of the goals in weed control. This study was designed to investigate some of the factors which control dormancy and germination in Amaranthus retroflexus seeds. Germination studies were conducted at different temperatures, and either in continuous white light or in the dark. Higher temperatures increased germination and, although light interacted with temperature, its effect on germination varied with the temperature. In an at

Significant onion height reduction was observed when Prowl (pendimethalin) and Prefar (bensulide) herbicide combinations were applied preemergence (PREE).

The onion crop stand emerged initially but later in the season, a significant crop stand reduction was observed for the higher rate of Prowl at 0.5 lb AI/A plus Prefar. A lower rate of Prowl at 0.25 lb AI/A plus Prefar also caused a reduction of the onion stand

Thesis (MTech (Agriculture))--Cape Technikon, 2001.<br>Onion seeds (cultivar Caledon Globe), and soil into which the seedlings were planted, were treated with various adjuvants including fungicides, a seed disinfectant and a soil sterilant, as well as soil-applied growth stimulants to determine the effect of these on germination of seed, the growth of plants and the storage life of onions obtained. Three sets of germination trials were undertaken in petri dishes, and sets of seed was also sown in deep seed trays. A trial planting was made and the crop graded and stored. Seed was also sow

Abstract:
The effect of spore titer, virulency, and carrier systems on biological control of giant foxtail (Setaria faberi hermm.) with a species of Phoma isolated from this weed wereinvestigated. The lowest concentration of Phoma conidia which significantly affected (lowered) growth of giant foxtail was 1x106 conidia/ml. In conducting Koch's postulates, all but one (FF2) of the Phoma, isolates tested infected giant foxtail. Isolates FF1 and FF9 were the most virulent against giant foxtail. No correlation was apparent between virulency and fungus germination rate. No visible difference occurred with in

Abstract:
Monocrotaline is a pyrrolizidine alkaloid found in plants implicated in livestock and human poisoning. Laboratory rats given monocrotaline develop pulmonary hypertension and right heart hypertrophy in the weeks following administration of the chemical. Lung weight increases and right heart hypertrophy correlate with increased pulmonary artery pressure. Rats which consumed monocrotaline drinking water (20 mg/l) for only 4 days developed significant increases in lung and heart weights 14 days after exposure began. This exposure was equivalent to a dose of 15 mg/kg. Other treatment combinations o
