A wilt disease occurred on greenhouse-grown eggplants (Solanum melongena L.) at Hanam and Yeojoo, Korea, in 1997. Lower leaves on the 2-month-old wilted eggplants exhibited gradual yellowing, interveinal necrosis, and marginal crinkling and dropped prematurely. Vascular tissues of diseased stems were discolored and turned black. Vertical sections of the stems revealed that the pith had been colonized by the fungus. The disease progressed from lower parts of the plants upward. Incidence of diseased eggplants in greenhouses was 5% on 23 May 1997. Although the incidence increased to 10% on 13 June, it remained constant through early July. Fungal isolates from discolored vascular tissues were initially whitish to cream color on potato-dextrose agar, which turned black due to the formation of microsclerotia. The fungus also produced abundant verticillate conidiophores with phialides and conidia. Based on these cultural and morphological characteristics, the fungus was identified as Verticillium dahliae Klebahn. Pathogenicity tests by root cutting, root dipping, or soil drenching resulted in similar symptoms observed in the naturally infected eggplants. Symptoms were first observed on lower leaves of each eggplant 3 weeks after inoculation. Isolation from symptomatic leaves of the inoculated eggplants yielded V. dahliae. This is the first report of occurrence of Verticillium wilt of eggplant in Korea.

The features of the process performed with root cutter and plant lifter, as well as the forces acting on their working bodies are examined. It was established that resistance to the root cutting increases with an increase in their number and diameter, but also depends on their mechanical strength. The studies obtained dependences of forces acting on the working bodies in accordance with their geometric parameters and specific application of technological process that can be used in the development of root cutters and plant lifters.

Abstract The winter-hardy introduced North American Populus trichocarpa Torr. & Gray is of particular interest. The results of the study of some clones of poplar on the experimental sites of the Voronezh region are presented. It was found that the rootability of standard stem cuttings of poplar was 98-100%. The survival of plants during the first 3-5 years varied from 75 to 100%. The growing season in different years was 135-146 days. The yield of standard cuttings on root-cutting plantations under favorable conditions and optimal age varied in different clones from 592 000 to 1 380 000 pieces per ha. The wood stock at the age of economical exploitability (~25 years) reached 400 m3/ha, while the stock of local balsam poplar at the same age reached 220 m3/ha. The green mass of leaves contained 0.22-0.28 feed units/kg. In addition, the content of digestible protein, calcium, phosphorus, carotene, crude protein, crude fat, crude fiber, nitrogen-free extractives and ash was determined. In general, studied clones of P. trichocarpa can be used in short rotation coppices for bioenergy and feed production, as well as in reclamation plantings. Clones of the poplar can be used in hybridization with black poplars to increase their winter hardiness.
