The haplolepideous mosses (Dicranidae) form the second largest group of and are morphologically ecologically highly diverse. This review summarizes current state addresses most urgent remaining problems in unravelling systematic relationships mosses. main results early molecular phylogenetic reconstructions based on few chloroplast markers compared with recent approaches from different genomes as well a new phylogeny novel combination non-coding plastid (rps4-trnF region atpB-rbcL spacer)....
Summary The effects of magnetic treatments on the initial growth stages pea (Pisum sativum L) seeds have been studied. Seeds were exposed to 125 mT or 250 stationary field generated by magnets under laboratory conditions for 1, 10 and 20 min, 1 24 h continuous exposure. In a first experiment, glued filter paper, rolled, placed in vessel containing distilled water subjected treatment; length weight plants measured at 3, 7 days after imbibition. second sown pots with organic growing medium...
In this work, the drying of amaranth and quinoa seeds using microwave technology has been studied for first time. The main objective study was to analyze influence power density oven on time, germination rate field survival these seeds. tests were performed in a domestic at three densities (0.875, 1.75 3.50 W/g seeds, 1.75, 7 those quinoa). It observed that as increased, decreased slightly (∼9%), did height plant (3.5%); whereas their field, 30 days after sowing, remained almost unchanged....
This research aimed to determine the factors that influence people's decision purchase quinoa, with emphasis on culture and healthy lifestyles, in urban parishes of city Latacunga. The data were analyzed by first considering contrasting hypotheses means or proportions between consumers non-consumers quinoa its derivatives; second estimating a probabilistic model identify variables consumer probability; finally defining profile habits those who claim prefer cookies bread, using an association...
Este trabajo muestra los resultados derivados de un proyecto enfocado a mejorar la capacidad empoderamiento socioeconómico las mujeres comunidad rural Yugsiloma, Ecuador. Se realizó estudio caso corte biográfico-narrativo. Los muestran como gran número barreras son derivadas situaciones violencia, expectativas socioculturales, contextos inseguridad y falta apoyo e infraestructura en comunidad, mientras que factores impulsores destacan principalmente, el fuerte papel productor comunidades,...
Background. In Ecuador, plants have traditionally been used to control crop pests as an alternative chemical pesticides. this study, we evaluate the state of knowledge surrounding these among farmers in three rural communities Ecuadorian Andean region and analyze, turn, whether is conditioned by gender. Methods. Semi-structured surveys were designed with demographic information, well information related use crops. A total 240 administered selected sectors (120 men 120 women), followed...
Previous studies on the microwave drying of corn seeds have shown that process parameters employed play a very important role in determining properties and quality this grain (Gürsoy et al, 2013). Among these parameters, temperature has fundamental (Nair 2011). The main objective work is to evaluate effect time, energy consumption germination rate after they been dried with energy. To achieve proposed objective, was carried out rotating turntable domestic oven (LACOR Model 69330), capacity...
Bryophytes collected at La Gomera (Canary Islands) in three mountain areas, Agando, Carmona and the Zarcita volcanic domes Garajonay National Park, Fortaleza de Chipude Enchereda, are documented. The list contributes 93 mosses, 49 liverworts 2 hornworts. Two new records contributed to Canary Islands (Acaulon mediterraneum Orthotrichum alpestre), 3 specifically island of (O. acuminatum, O. affine Tortella limbata). Finally, localities were discovered for some interesting bryophytes Canaries...
Understanding the denitrification process in agriculture is key to preventing nitrogen (N) losses and reducing emissions of greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O) atmosphere. Since type fertilization influences this process, study we evaluated comparative effect conventional (CON) versus ecological intensification (EI) soil management under conditions on abundance expression denitrifying functional genes nitrite reductase (nirK, nirS) (nosZ). For purpose, quantitative PCR (qPCR) was performed...
The aim of this work was to determine the effect saturating irrigation solution with air (MNBA) or oxygen nanobubbles (MNBO) on relevant agronomic, productive, and postharvest parameters tomato crops (Solanum lycopersicum L.) in greenhouses. As a control, conventional management established, without nanobubbles, under best possible agronomic conditions used commercial greenhouses southeastern Spain. No significant differences were found soil properties analysed ionic concentration pore water...
Abstract Understanding the bacteria associated with nitrification and denitrification is crucial for comprehending processes that lead to nitrous oxide emissions in agricultural greenhouse soils. Therefore, it important determine their abundance expression gain insight into these processes. The aim of this study was explore bacterial communities a soil amended crop residues manure six years. For purpose, we proceeded detect quantify genes nirK nirS gene nosZ through clone library...
<p><strong>Background</strong>. As a strategy to design actions aimed at sustainable development the local level, it is necessary carry out thorough diagnosis of social, economic and environmental dimensions that affect sustainability community. <strong>Objective.</strong> With in mind, this research evaluated natural resource management productive units Yungañan River micro-basin Ecuadorian Andes order identify strengths weaknesses their as well possible...
