Physiological Basis of Irrigation Scheduling for Seed Production in Egyptian Clover Syn. Berseem (Trifolium alexandrinum L.) Crop

A field experiment was conducted to find out the critical physiological stages of irrigation schedules inducing better growth, physiological efficiency and seed yield potential of berseem ( Trifolium alexandrinum L., Var. S-99-1). For this purpose eight irrigation treatments were made comprised of four treatments of three irrigation (W₁, W₂, W₃ and W₄), three treatments of four irrigation (W₅, W₇ and W₈) and one treatment of five irrigation (W₆) at various physiological stages i. e. regeneration, flower initiation, full bloom, seed initiation and advance seed development stage.
Thus based on the experimental results the physiological role of watering in berseem seed production could be discussed as:
With-holding of irrigation either at regeneration or at full bloom stage developed potential water stress in plants as indicated by high proline content of irrigation treatments — W₄, W₁ and W₇; and further brought out disturbance on the formation of carotene, synthesis of water soluble sugar and translocation of sugar towards reproductive organs during grain development stage. These stresses adversely affected the plant growth and flowering behaviour. The irrigation at seed initiation stage increased the seed yield. Continuous irrigation did not appear to be useful. Thus it can be concluded that irrigation at three critical physiological stages i. e. regeneration, full bloom and seed initiation was found to be essential for obtaining potential seed yield of berseem.     

松材线虫病入侵陕西的风险分析

松材线虫病自1982年在我国发现后，扩散和危害呈逐年扩大和加重趋势，严重影响了我国生态安全和经济发展。本文通过对松材线虫病定量的风险分析，得出风险值R=2．775，表明松材线虫病对陕西省而言属于特别危险的林业有害生物，应加强监测、检疫和除治管理，防止传入陕西省并造成扩散危害。

测定石膏性盐渍土水溶性盐的适宜水土比

土壤水溶性盐的含量与组成随制备浸出液的水土比例不同而异,对含石膏的盐渍土测定结果的影响尤为显著。为了正确反映田间水溶性盐的实际状况,作者进行了三种不同水土比例制备浸出液的对比试验。结果表明,适宜水土比为1:1,其测出的盐分含量与饱和泥浆法按近,且操作简便、快速,在我国一般土化分析实验室均可采用。     

永丰草地的类型及其生产力评估

本文描述了甘肃省天祝县永丰草地的主要草地类型、生产能力及利用模式。研究工作显示,草地改良措施,对不同植被的生物量分布,将产生显著的效果。灌溉和施肥,将促进河谷草甸的地下生物量向地上生物量的转化过程。灌溉可使河谷草甸中禾草组分的增加超过50％,使产草量增加50％～100％。上年秋天和当年春天土壤的含水量,是全年产草量的决定因素,其对产草量的重要性超过全年平均降水量的影响。除了植被组分、产草量的变化外,河谷草地在可消化粗蛋白、可消化能、代谢能等方面也有重大变化,9月份与4月份相比,这三项指标分别高出376％、86％和86％。不同年龄组的绵羊饲料消耗显示,7岁羊的饲料消耗是10月龄羊的17倍;但是7岁羊的胴体重量仅是10月龄羊的2倍。根据永丰滩草地、饲草、家畜的这些特点,当地的畜牧业,不应当在毫无经济意义的情况下,保持太多的牲畜头数,优化畜产品生产的最好方法,就是实行季节畜牧业。季节畜牧业(其中繁殖母羊数达67％)与其他草地改良措施相结合,将使该地区单位面积上的绵羊的产肉量提高4.9倍。

In situ radiometric mapping of soil erosion and field-moist bulk density on cultivated fields

Abstract. Recent developments in in situγ ray spectrometry offer a new approach to measuring the activity of radionuclides such as ¹³⁷Cs and ⁴⁰K in soils, and thus estimating erosion or deposition rates and field moist bulk density (ρ_m). Such estimates would be rapid and involve minimal site disturbance, especially important where archaeological remains are present. This paper presents the results of a pilot investigation of an eroded field in Scotland in which a portable hyper pure germanium (HPGe) detector was used to measure γ ray spectra in situ. The gamma (γ) photon flux observed at the soil surface is a function of the ¹³⁷Cs inventory, its depth distribution characteristics and ρ_m. A coefficient, Q_Cs, derived from the forward scattering of ¹³⁷Cs γ ray photons within the soil profile relative to the ¹³⁷Cs full energy peak (662 keV), was used to correct the in situ calibration for changes in the ¹³⁷Cs vertical distribution in the ploughed field, a function of tillage, soil accumulation and ρ_m. Based on only 8 measurements, the agreement between in situγ ray spectrometry and soil sample measurements of ¹³⁷Cs inventories improved from a non significant r²=0.05 to a significant r²=0.62 (P<0.05). Erosion and deposition rates calculated from the corrected in situ¹³⁷Cs measurements had a similarly good agreement with those calculated from soil cores. Mean soil bulk density was also calculated using a separate coefficient, Q_K, derived from the forward scattering γ photons from ⁴⁰K within the soil relative to the ⁴⁰K full energy peak (1460 keV). Again there was good agreement with soil core measurements (r²=0.64; P<0.05). The precision of the in situ¹³⁷Cs measurement was limited by the precision with which Q_Cs can be estimated, a function of the low ¹³⁷Cs deposition levels associated with the weapons testing fallout and relatively low detector efficiency (35%). In contrast, the precision of the in situ ρ_m determination was only limited by the spatial variability associated with soil sampling.     

A test for interaction between brown trout (Salmo trutta) and inanga (Galaxias maculatus) in an artificial stream

Abstract –  The interaction between brown trout ( Salmo trutta ; fork length (FL) range 255–390 mm) and inanga ( Galaxias maculatus ; FL range 55–115 mm) was tested during summer through autumn in an artificial stream consisting of a single run-riffle-pool sequence with a natural food supply. Each experimental trial lasted for 15 days, and consisted of two brown trout and 50 inanga collected fresh from a nearby stream, with each species given prior residence in four replicate tests, totalling eight trials in all. In addition, two control trials (each 10 days), with 50 inanga in each, were run. Brown trout almost exclusively occupied the pool, whereas inanga occupied all habitat types, although in different proportions, when tested with and without brown trout. The proportion of inanga in the pool was appreciably lower in the experimental trials with brown trout than in the control trials with no brown trout; prior residence had no significant effect on inanga habitat use. Mortality of inanga attributable to predation by brown trout ranged from 0 to 40% with a mean of 14.5 ± 4.7%. The results suggest that habitat use and survival of inanga populations in small streams can be adversely affected by brown trout.
