[Method] Field surveys were conducted in Shayang, Dangyang, Zhijiang, Yidu and Changyang of Hubei Province during 2009- 2011. Clubfoot disease of rapeseed samples from the surveyed locations were con- firmed by PCR detection and plants infection experiment. The factors of yield and plot yields influenced by clubroot disease were determined in plot experiment. [Re- salt] Rapeseed clubroots were confirmed in Zhijiang and Dangyang and not found in Shayang and Yidu. Clubroot was found in cruciferous vegetables but not in rapeseed d in Changyang. Infection of P. brassicae significantly decreased of the first effective branch numbers of rapeseed, effective pod number per plant, seed number per pod and 1 000-grain weight. Yield of infected rapeseed decreased by 56.4% over non-infected control. [Conclusion] Rapeseed clubroot disease mainly distributed in Zhijiang and Dangyang of Hubei Province. The disease had an economic impact on rapeseed production.展开更多

[Method] Eighteen mid-season hybrid rice va- rieties approved recently were taken as materials in high-yield cultivation conditions. Characteristics of retoon rice yield components were analyzed, and relationship of yield components characteristics with the rate of bud emergence and root activity of retoon rice before harvesting was explored, based on related data. [Result] Highly- yielding retoon rice is characterized by high effective ear number (Xl) and high set- ting percentage (X4); the number of germinated shoots the 5^* d after first-batch rice was cut is a key factor for retoon rice yield and was of positive correlation with re- toon rice seedlings and effective ears, with correlation coefficients at 0.80^** and 0.76^**. In addition, bleeding sap was of positive correlation with grain number and setting percentage of retoon rice and correlation coefficients were 0.50^* and 0.48^**, and of positive correlation with average panicle weight, with correlation coefficient at 0.63. [Conclusion] It is an effective way for the rate of bud emergence and root activity at lar ecological zones. mproving retoon rice yield to increase harvesting in the test sites and simi lar ecological zones.展开更多

Lettuce was grown at 5 treatments fi'om High EC & Low CR to Low EC & High CR. The environmental parameters were controlled in a 20 m^2 plant factory during the hydroponic cultivation with the following values: irradiated by blue and red light-emitting diode lighting with PPFD (photosynthetic photon flux density) value of 150 mol·m^-2·s^-1 for 16 hours per day; Temperature was maintained at 22.0 ℃ during the photoperiod and 16.0 ℃ in dark cycle. The results demonstrate that growing lettuce can be adopted using nutrient solution with lower EC levels and higher CR. The results also indicate that the effect of bi-directional coupled EC and CR resulted in expansion of root length but reducing the root biomass. Nitrate content was significantly reduced.展开更多
Quantitative determination of hydrogen cyanide (HCN) content in a toxic local cassava variety "Rutuga" with an initial total HCN of 16.65%, free HCN of 9.19% and bound HCN (cyanoglycosides) of 7.46% in the fresh...Quantitative determination of hydrogen cyanide (HCN) content in a toxic local cassava variety "Rutuga" with an initial total HCN of 16.65%, free HCN of 9.19% and bound HCN (cyanoglycosides) of 7.46% in the fresh peeled root tubers was done to assess the effectiveness of aquatic and terrestrial (heap) fermentation in detoxifying cassava root tubers for obtaining dried product used in making flour. This was indirectly done by getting the difference in HCN content that remained after processing the root tubers using some traditional processing techniques. The findings indicated that aquatic fermentation in water from river Rwizi for 4 days only removed 1.23% of total HCN, 0.05% of free HCN and 2.68% of Cyanoglycosides (bound HCN) while terrestrial (heap) fermentation for 4 days removed 50.33% of total HCN, 20.84% of free HCN and 86.66% of Cyanoglycosides (bound HCN). Therefore, terrestrial (heap) fermentation has a higher potential in removing total HCN, free HCN and cyanoglycosides (bound HCN) than aquatic fermentation, especially in water from river Rwizi.展开更多
