Abstract:

Dans un environnement économique international fortement concurrentiel, la coopération est un déterminant clé pour favoriser la compétitivité. Alors que la France est une puissance agricole majeure, la filière horticole française est vulnérable et subit une très forte concurrence européenne. Malgré des actions publiques et privées significatives pour stimuler les actions collectives, la coopération reste très faible dans la filière, et la capture de la valeur dans la supply chain est déséquilibrée entre les différents acteurs de la filière.

Syncarpha recurvata (L.f.) B. Nord. (Asteraceae, Gnaphalieae) is listed as a vulnerable (intermediate priority) species. The propagation methods of achene germination, stem cuttings, air layering and micropropagation were investigated to obtain an efficient propagation method. Smoke water dilutions of 1:100, 1:50 and 1:10 significantly increased germination, with the 1:100 smoke water dilutions showing the highest germination percentage (22.4 percent). Achenes collected between August and October 2005 showed higher germination and viability than achenes collected between May and July 2006. Fif

Abstract:

Lesotho has a land area of about 30.340 square kilometers and is completely surrounded by the Republic of South Africa. Much of the country is mountainous. Its agricultural sector is characterized by low productivity due to erratic climatic conditions, limited arable land and fragile soils with a low water holding capacity. These conditions have proved very detrimental to crop production, rendering agriculture a risky economic activity. Numerous efforts have been made over the years to address the technical constraints confronting the sector, but nothing seems to be changing. The implication i

Despite <i>M. phaseolina</i> being a soil-borne pathogen, disease symptoms were only reported in aboveground tissue.

Abstract:

Flame weeding is a thermal weed control method that controls weeds through the application of extremely high temperatures. Field experiments were conducted from 2005 to 2007 to determine weed and crop tolerance to flame weeding and to investigate effects on plant development, crop yield, and crop quality. Dose-response curves were constructed for weeds common to horticultural fields in Québec. Flame weeding was more effective in controlling dicot weeds than monocot weeds. Flame doses that reduced common lambsquarters density by 95% (LD95) ranged from 0.83 to 2.85 kg propane km-1 for plants

Respiration rate (RR) has been previously proposed as an indicator to reveal the importance of hyperbaric pressure treatment.

Avocado is a globally significant fruit tree crop. However, Phytophthora root rot, caused by Phytophthora cinnamomi (Pc), is the primary limitation to production in most countries. This soil borne oomycete pathogen infects and damages avocado tree root systems, leading to canopy decline and reduced yields. The disease can be managed successfully in an integrated manner, but not totally eliminated. An important aspect of integrated control that could potentially provide a lasting solution is the use of Pc-resistant rootstocks.
