EVALUATION OF THE EFFECTS OF ALLELOPATHIC AQUEOUS PLANT EXTRACTS, AS POTENTIAL PREPARATIONS FOR SEED DRESSING, ON THE MODULATION OF CAULIFLOWER SEED GERMINATION

Allelopathic plants can be widely used in bio-farming considering their potential role in the improvement of seed germination.The study presented in this work was designed to evaluate the effects of two extraction methods and the effects of allelopathic aqueous extracts from twenty plants as seed dressing preparations on the number of germinating a

The increase in informal activities is a problem in the Ecuadorian economy and those who develop it are considered vulnerable groups since they do not have a permanent job with due benefits of the law that a formal job would offer them.Since their economic income is unstable, they run the risk of financial vulnerability.The present research aims to

This study presents a model of chlorophyll and primary production in the pelagic Mediterranean Sea.A 3-D-biogeochemical model (OPATM-BFM) was adopted to explore specific system characteristics and quantify dynamics of key biogeochemical variables over a 6 yr period, from 1999 to 2004.We show that, on a basin scale, the Mediterranean Sea is characte
