Spent Oyster Mushroom Substrate in a Mix with Organic Soil for Plant Pot Cultivation
(Institut de Recherche pour le Développement, 2008-12)
Disposal of spent mushroom substrates can pose a problem to the environment. The reuse in crop production by its recycling as an ingredient of growing mixes would provide an environmentally safe disposition. We show the ...
Rooting of jojoba cuttings: the effect of clone, substrate composition and temperature
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 1998)
Propagation of jojoba (Simmondsia chinensis (Link) Schneider) clones for commercial use is expensive. An investigation was conducted to improve the efficiency of this process. Rooting of semi-hardwood stem cuttings of ...
Interference of epicuticular wax from leaves of grasses in selection and preparation of substrate for cultivation of symbiont fungus by Atta capiguara (Hym. Formicidae)
(2005-06-01)
The selection of plants is one of the stages of foraging behavior, executed by leaf-cutting ants for the cultivation of symbiont fungus. Anatomical, biochemical and physiological characteristics of vegetal species are some ...
Integrated culture of Nile tilapia and Amazon river prawn in stagnant ponds, using nutrient-rich water and substrates
(2019-03-30)
Monoculture is an inefficient aquaculture system because on average <~20% of the diet supplied is assimilated by the target species. Integrated aquaculture systems are attractive alternatives because they take advantage ...
Production and quality of melons grown in two different substrates under soilless cultivation
(2003-12-01)
This investigation was conducted at UNESP, Jaboticabal campus, São Paulo, Brazil, from March 8 to June 21, 1999, to evaluate net melon yield and fruit quality, using soilless culture. 'Bônus 2' and 'Mission' cultivars were ...
The effect of substrate diameter and incline on locomotion in an arboreal frog
(Company of Biologists, 2013-08)
Frogs are characterized by a unique morphology associated with their saltatory lifestyle. Yet, arboreal species show morphological specializations relative to other ecological specialists allowing them to hold on to narrow ...
Controlling the preferential orientation in sol-gel prepared CaCu3Ti4O12 thin films by LaAlO3 and NdGaO3 substrates
(Elsevier Science, 2016-11)
Researchers have paid considerable attention to CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) due to the colossal dielectric constant over a wide range of frequency and temperature. Despite of the growing number of works dealing with CCTO, there ...
Boundary Tension at the Interface of Nanoscopic Helium Films on an Heterogeneous Substrate
(Springer, 2014-07)
This paper reports the first calculation of the two-dimensional interfacial profile and energetics of nanoscopically thin films of helium, on an heterogeneous planar substrate consisting of two adjoining metals. The ...
Laccases production by A.blazei mushroom grown either in composted or non-composted substrates
(Trade Science Inc, 2013)
