Abstract:

As sessile organisms, plants are subject to numerous environmental insults. Of these, salinity is one of the most widespread and important in terms of limiting plant distribution and productivity. Molecular studies have established that plants challenged by high salinity respond by increasing expression of specific genes. A functional role for the products of such genes in stress tolerance has not been established, however, and little is known about the biochemical mechanisms that allow plants to tolerate osmotic stress. Mesembryanthemum crystallinum is a facultative halophyte capable of adjus

Abstract:

Salt-affected soils have undermined the effectiveness of agricultural development of considerable areas of the world, especially in the arid and semi-arid regions. This research is set out for the direct measurement of salt-affected soil. Two experiments were conducted to study the influence of different salt types and concentrations on spectral reflectance of soil. In the first experiment, five different salts (Na₂SO₄, NaHCO₃, CaCO₃, CaCl₂ and NaCl) were mixed individually with Gila soil at 0.51, 1.51 and 3.0% by weight. The second experiment was conducted to examine the spectral response of

The concentrations and total plant accumulations of minerals within guayule shoots varied depending on growth of the plants and the minerals assayed. In most cases, the concentrations of Cu, Zn, Mn, Na and Cl increased in the shoot tissues of guayule grown

The radiotracer methodology was combined with the Hoagland solution culture of growing soybean in a greenhouse to investigate the absorptions of phosphorus (P), calcium (Ca), and sodium (Na) as a function of salinity. Salt stress was varied by using zero to 120 mM NaCl. The research was initiated because of a need to increase soybean production in the saline soils of the semi-arid regions of the world. Although P absorption increased with time at each concentration of NaCl, increasing its concentrations ([NaCl]) to 120 mM reduced P uptake considerably. The addition of inorganic P (Pi) to the s

CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior<br>A interpretaÃÃo de dados do sensoriamento remoto fundamenta-se, basicamente, na anÃlise do comportamento da reflectÃncia espectral dos materiais no intervalo de comprimento de onda do visÃvel ao infravermelho de ondas curtas (400 a 2500 nm). Para isso, pode-se usar a espectrorradiometria de reflectÃncia, que Ã uma tÃcnica capaz de medir, em diferentes comprimentos de ondas, a energia eletromagnÃtica refletida da superfÃcie dos materiais e representÃ-la na forma de um grÃfico denominado curva de reflectÃncia espectral. O poder analÃt

Abstract:

Deux exemples de mise en valeur de sols sales en milieu semi-aride tunisien sont analyses. Situes dans la partie littorale de la basse vallee de la mejerda, ils constituent deux modeles de recuperation de sols salins. Il s'agit de la lunette d'el mabtouha et du perimetre de kalaat landelous dont les sols, initialement tres salins et tres sodiques, ont evolue dans des conditions et a des vitesses differentes pour aboutir a des terres cultivables. Dans le premier cas, la recuperation s'est produite sous conditions naturelles, alors que dans le second cas, c'est l'artificialisation du regime hydr
