Three Stages

The purpose of our vigour tests was to reveal the relationships betwen the viability of wheat grains, their germination rate and capacity and respiration intensity. The wheat grain was collected in two ways. The first grain was removed from the ears immediately after harvest (denoted as series A) and the second grain was left in the ears at room temperature for two weeks after harvest (denoted as series B). This grain was harvested at three stages of ripeness (milk, wax and full ripeness). Our results demonstrated that wheat grain at the full ripeness stage was of better biological quality than that at milk and wax ripeness stages. The grain of series B from all ripeness stages showed a higher viability than the grain of series A. On the other hand, grains at milk, wax and full repeness in series B were more mature than those at milk, wax and full ripeness in series A. Therefore it can be concluded probably that the embryo and endosperm in the latter grains were much more developed and much organic matter was passing from the stalk to the seeds when they were kept in the ear for two weeks after harvest.

A two-factor field experiment was carried out at the Lithuanian Institute of Agriculture during the period 2005-2008. The influence of different tillage and fertilization practices on wheat grain fungal contamination was evaluated. Grain surface contamination and internal grain infection with fungi were quantified using agar tests. Purified colonies were identified using different manuals. A total of 16 fungal genera were identified in spring and winter wheat grains. Alternaria infected 46.3% - 99.9%, Cladosporium 26.9% - 77.8%, Fusarium 0.9% - 37.1%, Penicillium 1.3% - 2.5% of grains tested. Winter wheat grain surface contamination by fungi ranged from 7.2 × 103 to 24.8 × 103 of colony forming units per g of grain (cfu g-1), spring wheat from 14.8 × 103 to 80.3 × 103 cfu g-1. No-tillage increased winter wheat grain infection by Alternaria, Aspergillus and Cladosporium species and total count of cfu g-1 on spring wheat grain surface. High fertilizer rates resulted in an increase in spring wheat grain infection by Fusarium and Penicillium species and total count of cfu g-1 on both spring and winter wheat grain surface.;

The aim of the study was to determine the presence Fusarium species and mycotoxins in winter wheat grain in Poland. Grain samples from different locations in Poland in 2009 and 2010 were analysed for the content of biomass of Fusarium species and mycotoxins. In 2009 biomass of F. graminearum and F. poae was present in all samples, F. culmorum in 82% of samples, F. avenaceum in 55% of samples. F. sporotrichioides, F. tricinctum and F. equiseti were found only in individual samples. F. langsethiae was not detected. In 2010, five Fusarium species were detected with the exception of F. sporotrichioides. The highest content of biomass was found for F. graminearum followed by F. avenaceum, F. poae and F. langsethiae. The amount of F. culmorum biomass was very low. The most frequently occurring species was F. poae and F. graminearum. In 2009, deoxynivalenol was detected in all samples. In 2010, the average content of deoxynivalenol was lower than in 2009. Nivalenol was detected at very low concentration in both years. Significant correlations between content of F. graminearum biomass and deoxynivalenol concentration in grain and between content of F. poae biomass and nivalenol concentration in grain in 2009 were found. The most important finding of this study was that main Fusarium species infecting wheat kernels in Poland in both years was F. graminearum. The amount of biomass of F. graminearum was the highest in both years. It was present in the most samples. The other frequently detected species was F. poae, which in 2010 appeared in more samples than F. graminearum. However, the amount of F. poae biomass was lower. F. culmorum, species that was previously dominating as wheat pathogen in Poland, was found less frequently than F. graminearum. The amount of biomass of this species was the lowest in 2010.

Purpose. Study the formation of yield and grain quality of baking winter wheat of different varieties. Methods. Laboratory, physico-chemical, mathematical and statistical. Results. The grain yield of baking winter wheat varied significantly depending on the variety. On average over two years of research, the highest yield (8.12–8.47 t/ha) was obtained in ‘Colonia’, ‘RGT Reform’, ‘Quebec’, ‘Tobak’, ‘Mescal’ and ‘Emile’ varieties. In ‘Bonanza’ and ‘Rivero’ varieties, this indicator was at the level of 7.48–7.53 t/ha. It should be noted that the stability index was high (0.92–0.98) for growing all varieties. In the favourable 2020 year, the grain yield ranged between 7.62 and 8.80 t/ha, while in the less favourable years it ranged between 7.34 and 8.26 t/ha depending on the variety. On average, over two years of research, the protein content of more than 13.0% was formed by ‘Emile’, ‘Bonanza’, ‘RGT Reform’ and ‘Quebec’ varieties, while in other the varieties it was 12.4–12.9%. The studied varieties of baking wheat had a high stability of protein content (0.98–0.99). Baking winter wheat grain had an average gluten content of 27.7–29.7%, depending on the variety, with high stability. Its highest content (29.5–29.7%) was obtained in ‘Emile’, ‘Quebec’ and ‘RGT Reform’ varieties. The gluten content in grain was directly proportional to the protein content. There is a direct very high correlation between these indicators (r = 0.91 ± 0.001). According to the Zeleny sedimentation test results, flour strength was high only in ‘Quebec’ variety, while in the other varieties it was medium. The grain of ‘Quebec’ and ‘RGT Reform’ varieties corresponds to valuable wheat; ‘Rivero’ and ‘Bonanza’ correspond to a good filler, while the rest of the varieties correspond to a satisfactory filler. The grain of ‘Quebec’, ‘Mescal’, ‘Rivero’ and ‘Colonia’ varieties is medium hard as the hardness was 54.1–59.1 units of instrument. Grain of the other varieties is soft with 48.3–51.1 units of instrument. Grain of ‘RGT Reform’, ‘Rivero’, ‘Emile’ and ‘Tobak’ varieties had the largest (794–812 g/l) grain unit. This indicator in the other varieties was at the level of 760–785 g/l. Flour strength is directly proportional to protein content. There is the direct high correlation between these indicators (r = 0.87 ± 0.002). Correlation between the protein content and the sedimentation index by Zeleny test was direct high (r = 0.79 ± 0.001). However, with grain hardness it was inversely weak, and with the grain unit direct moderate (r = 0.35±0.003). Conclusions. Yield of winter baking wheat varieties was in the range from 7.48 to 8.47 t/ha, protein content varied from 12.4 to 13.8%. Protein content highly correlated with the major baking properties of wheat grain. Baking winter wheat ‘RGT Reform’ and ‘Quebec’ varieties are recommended for stable grain production with good baking properties in the conditions of the Right-Bank Forest-Steppe.

The evolution of dislocation channels in irradiated metals during deformation can be envisaged to occur in three stages: (i) formation of embryonic cluster free regions, (ii) growth of these regions into microscopically observable channels and (iii) termination of their growth due to the accumulation of dislocation damage. The first two stages are particularly intriguing, and we have attempted to follow the early stages of channel formation in polycrystalline molybdenum, irradiated to 5×1019 n. cm−2 (E > 1 Mev) at the reactor ambient temperature (∼ 60°C), using transmission electron microscopy. The irradiated samples were strained, at room temperature, up to the macroscopic yield point.Figure 1 illustrates the early stages of channel formation. The observations suggest that the cluster free regions, such as A, B and C, form in isolated packets, which could subsequently link-up to evolve a channel.

A knowledge of the behaviour of dislocations in semiconducting materials is essential to the understanding of devices which use them . This work is concerned with dislocations in alloys related to the semiconductor GaAs . Previous work on GaAs has shown that microtwinning occurs on one of the <110> rosette arms after indentation in preference to the other . We have shown that the effect of replacing some of the Ga atoms by Al results in microtwinning in both of the rosette arms.In the work to be reported dislocations in specimens of different compositions of Gax Al(1-x) As and Gax In(1-x) As have been studied by using micro indentation on a (001) face at room temperature . A range of electron microscope techniques have been used to investigate the type of dislocations and stacking faults/microtwins in the rosette arms , which are parallel to the [110] and [10] , as a function of composition for both alloys . Under certain conditions microtwinning occurs in both directions . This will be discussed in terms of the dislocation mobility.

Kinetics Of

The kinetics of the reaction of solid sodium carbonate with sulfur dioxide depends on the microstructure of the solid, which in turn is affected by the way and conditions of its preparation. The active form, analogous to that obtained by thermal decomposition of NaHCO3, emerges from the dehydration of Na2CO3 . 10 H2O in a vacuum or its weathering in air at room temperature. The two active forms are porous and have approximately the same specific surface area. Partial hydration of the active Na2CO3 in air at room temperature followed by thermal dehydration does not bring about a significant decrease in reactivity. On the other hand, if the preparation of anhydrous Na2CO3 involves, partly or completely, the liquid phase, the reactivity of the product is substantially lower.
