The growth and nutrient balance of legumes can be disrupted in soils with increased nickel (Ni) concentrations. inoculation rhizobia, symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria, used for the alleviation trace metal stress plants. This study evaluated Ni tolerance alfalfa rhizobia isolates some plant growth-promoting traits presence Ni: indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) production, biosorption potential, effect on (Medicago sativa L.) growth. strains were characterized as Shinorhizobium meliloti,...
The objective of this research is to investigate the application new Bacillus spp. isolates from alkaline soil as potential biocontrol agents for management wheat pest-wireworms (A. lineatus larvae), diseases caused by phytopathogenic fungi Fusarium spp., and their plant growth-promoting potential. Among five isolates, BHC 1.3 1.5 showed ability suppress only mycelial growth F. proliferatum. Insecticidal activity resulting in a wireworm mortality rate 17.24% after ten days experimentation...
All over the world, especially in Western societies, table salt intake that is inordinately higher than acceptable level has been observed. An excess of Na human diet, mostly from processed foods, becoming “number one killer”, leading to increased blood pressure. Therefore, food industry faced with a need reduce nutrition an effort raise public health protection level. In this study, commercially available combination Na/K salts (COMB) at different concentrations was used as NaCl substitute...
Some Trichoderma strains can persist in ecosystems with high concentrations of heavy metals. The aim this research was to examine the variability isolated from different ecosystems, based on their morphological properties and restriction analysis ITS fragments. fungal growth tested potato dextrose agar, amended Cu(II) ranging 0.25 10 mmol/l, order identify copper-resistant strains. results indicate that some sp. show tolerance higher copper concentrations. Further ability bioaccumulation by...
The purpose of study was to identify polyphenolic compounds and antimicrobial properties in berries leaves black currant (Ribes nigrum L.). Black showed different characteristics. Berries had a higher levels the studied parameters compared leaves. Berry extracts contained 2.90 5.90 times more total phenolics, flavonoids, condensed tannins gallotannins leaf extracts, antioxidant activity 5.82 than main flavonol found our sample quercetin, followed by myricetin, while kaempferol present very...
The paper presents two-year results of chemical tests raspberry fruits in organic and conventional cultivation systems. Raspberry plantations were established on the slopes Jelica Mountain, soil having very acidic reaction (pH/KCl 3.67-3.76) optimal contents humus total N. In system, had a high supply readily available P2O5 K2O microelements, with excessive levels Ni, Cr. content Ni Zn increased. biochemical properties showed no significant differences, while influence research year...
Powdery mildew (caused by Podosphaera aphanis) and leaf blotch Gnomoniopsis fructicola) are important diseases of strawberry in nursery fruit production regions Australia. Myclobutanil, trifloxystrobin penthiopyrad registered for control powdery Australia, but not restricted to either or production. Due the specific mode action these fungicides against P. aphanis, their repeated use over successive stages runner then may increase risk fungicide resistance pathogen. Currently, there is no G....
Fruits of five apple cultivars were treated using 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP or SmartFreshTM) after cropping and stored at normal atmosphere 2 ± 0.5 °C, 90 5% relative humidity (RH) 20.9 kPa O2 + <0.5 CO2. Fruit firmness was assessed three periods: 7 d storing, 120 storing 30 the second assessment room temperature. Contents K in all years study varied within average values between 1390.5 2028.0 mg kg-1, while Ca content 21.7 59.5 kg-1. The K:Ca ratio lowest cultivar ‘Granny Smith’ (24.0)...
Raspberry leaf blotch emaravirus (RLBV) has become established in many Serbian raspberry orchards as the most prevalent virus of raspberries country. The aim this study was to evaluate impact RLBV on red ?Willamette? variety. A trial conducted four located Western Serbia. Fruits from RLBVinfected and uninfected canes were analyzed for fruit size (fruit length, width, height, shape, weight), soluble solids content, pH, titratable acidity, total sugars, phenolic anthocyanin contents. results...
On Vertisol soil type, in the area of Bela Crkva, within cadastral municipality Crvena research on impact different land uses infiltration rate was conducted 2021. Infiltration tests were carried out using double metal cylindrical infiltrometers plots under shrubs, meadows, and cultivated land. It found that highest pasture plot compared to which can be attributed characteristics developed root system permeates soil. The obtained results should taken with caution, considering is a...
This study investigated the influence of two different grown locations (300 and 550 m altitudes) on fruit biochemical profile seven plum cultivars developed in a breeding program at Fruit Research Institute, Čačak (Republic Serbia) 'Stanley' as standard cultivar. In present results, significant differences were observed biosynthesis chemical compounds biological activity between fruits from various cultivars, but also same altitudes. As altitude increased, accumulation glucose, sucrose,...
