Downy Mildew of Cabbage. Caused by the fungus Peronospora parasitica. Damage occurs mostly to young plants or to exposed leaves of heading plants. 2, record 1, English, - downy%20mildew%20of%20cabbage

The fungus causing downy mildew of cabbage also attacks other crucifers, such as cauliflower, collards, Chinese cabbage, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, kale, and kohlrabi... The first symptoms of downy mildew are the formation of black specks and yellow-brown spots on the upper leaf surface, accompanied by the development of a fluffy mold growth on the lower surface. Young leaves may fall off when infected, and on older leaves, the spots may coalesce, producing large, sunken, tan spots. The disease can attack young seedlings or plants that have already headed. On older cabbage plants, the disease produces dark, sunken spots, which may appear purplish, on the head or wrapper leaves. 3, record 1, English, - downy%20mildew%20of%20cabbage

It is estimated that about 80% of existing vats are of the counterflow type.... In this type of vat, the slurry flows opposite to the direction of cylinder rotation, causing sheet formation to begin at the point of highest consistency. Although relatively thick plies can be formed(i. e., up to 0. 010 inch or 10 mils caliper, referred to as 10 "points" in the trade), a number of problems are associated with this method. Because the mold rotates opposite to the direction of stock flow, a portion of deposited stock is continuously washed off the mold, resulting in flocced fiber bundles that contribute to "blotchy" formation. 2, record 3, English, - counterflow%20vat

The principle of web formation on a cylinder former is virtually identical to that of a gravity decker.... A horizontal cylinder with a wire or plastic cloth surface rotates in a vat of dilute paper stock. Water associated with the stock drains through the mold and a layer of fibers is deposited on the cloth.... Because the mold rotates opposite to the direction of stock flow, a portion of deposited stock is continuously washed off the mold, resulting in flocced fiber bundles that contribute to "blotchy" formation. The sheet also has extreme directionality(fiber orientation) caused by the method of fiber deposition.(N. B. Directionality is usually measured by the ratio of tensile values obtained on machine-direction and cross-direction samples. Values of 5. 0 are typical for vat cylinder board, as compared to values below 2. 0 for fourdrinier papers.) 1, record 4, English, - directionality

On estime qu'environ 80 % des formes rondes existantes sont du type à contre-courant, [...] Comme la forme tourne en sens inverse de l'écoulement de la pâte, une partie de la suspension déjà déposée est détachée de la forme par chasse d'eau; on retrouve dans la suspension de petits amas de fibres floculées qui contribuent à la formation d'un épair nuageux. Cette méthode de dépôt des fibres donne des feuilles extrêmement orientées. (Nota : On mesure, d'ordinaire, l'orientation des papiers par le rapport des longueurs de rupture dans le sens marche et le sens travers. Pour les machines à forme ronde, on obtient des valeurs supérieures à 5,0, alors qu'elles sont inférieures à 2,0 sur les machines à table plate.) 1, record 4, French, - orientation
