ABSTRACT The breakdown of dormancy and early sprouting is one of the main causes of losses of stored potatoes. Sprouting control becomes important especially when tubers are submitted to long-term storage for further processing by the potato industry. The objective of this work is to evaluate the effect of organic sprout inhibitors, eugenol and menthol essential oils, on the suppression of growth on non-dormant ‘Asterix’ tubers stored at 8 °C. Administration of eugenol and menthol essential oils reduced the number and the length of sprouts during cold storage up to fifty days. Nevertheless, the essential oils stimulated the break of bud apical dominance, stimulating auxiliary buds growth. The effect of the oils was restricted to inducing necrosis of... |

Abstract Precision mechanized sowing of sugarcane has been delayed due to germination failures caused in sowing process by pieces of sugarcane, generating economic losses by reducing production. The aim of this study was to evaluate different polymers and cultivars of sugarcane to elaborate artificial seed CP-54, seed germination and quality of sugarcane plants. An experiment was carried out in two stages in experimental field of the Colegio de Postgraduados Campus Tabasco, Mexico. Results indicate that the best physical stage of artificial seed CP-54 was obtained in Mex 69-290, Mex 68-P-23 and CP 72-2086 cultivars encapsulated with starch polymers and sodium alginate. Artificial seed CP-54 germination was 100 and 84% encapsulated with starch and alginate... |

In the Brazilian Cerrado (neotropical savanna), the development of bud-bearing underground systems as adaptive structures to fire and dry periods can comprise an important source of buds for this ecosystem, as already demonstrated in the Brazilian Campos grasslands and North American prairies. Asteraceae species from both woody and herbaceous strata have subterranean organs that accumulate carbohydrates, reinforcing the adaptive strategy of these plants to different environmental conditions. This study aims to analyse the morpho-anatomy of underground systems of six species of Asteraceae (Mikania cordifolia L.f. Willd., Mikania sessilifolia DC, Trixis nobilis (Vell.) Katinas, Pterocaulon alopecuroides (Lam.) DC., Vernonia elegans Gardner and Vernonia... |
