1. Soybean Canopy Response To Charcoal Rot In Arkansas: Observations Using Crop Circletm (ACS-470).Charcoal Rot caused by Macrophomina phaseolina is a problem to soybean production, especially in hot and dry areas of southern US. As an approach to develop a fast assessment method of this soil-borne disease, soybean canopy reflectance was recorded with an active optical sensor, the Crop CircleTM ACS-470 in 2009 from a microplot field in Fayetteville, Arkansas. The microplot experiment was designed as a completely randomized factorial experiment with four cultivars, two inoculum... S.S. Kulkarni, M. Doubledee, S.G. Bajwa, J.C. Rupe |
2. Spatial Variability Of Spikelet Sterility In Temperate Rice In ChileSpikelet sterility (blanking) causes large economic losses to rice farmers in Chile. The most common varieties are susceptible to low air and water temperatures during pollen formation and flowering, which is the main responsible for the large year to year variation observed in terms of blanking and, therefore, of grain yield. The present work had for objective to study the spatial variability of spikelet sterility within two rice fields, during two consecutive seasons, and relate it to water... R.A. Ortega, D.E.
