A new development in mulch technology is the wavelength-selective film. It provides much of the weed control benefit of black plastic mulch, but warms the soil more than does black mulch. Thermic films, such as the IR-303 Thermofilm, were originally developed as greenhouse covers. They are reputed to reduce maximum and increase minimum temperatures slightly more than standard polyethylene films. These thermic films may have a role as hoop-supported row covers(tunnels). In a preliminary trial in 1990, the combination of black mulch and tunnels of either Lutrasil or IR-303 Thermofilm produced greater early yield than either black film or wavelength-selective mulch films alone. 2, record 1, English, - wavelength%20selective%20mulch

Weed control from herbicides applied before the mulch may break down in advance of crop maturity. An alternative to the clear mulch/herbicide system is the IRT or wavelength selective mulch system. IRT mulches provide similar soil warming to clear film, while controlling most weeds like black plastic. 3, record 1, English, - wavelength%20selective%20mulch

Identification of mechanisms by which plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria(PGPR) affect plants is required to obtain consistent or predictable increases in crop yields using PGPR. We conducted an outdoor lysimeter study using twelve glass-fronted rhizotrons to determine if inoculation with a strain of Pseudomonas fluorescens might benefit spring wheat yield by altering root growth. Inoculated and uninoculated treatments were either well-watered or subjected to terminal drought with just one surface irrigation at anthesis. 2, record 2, English, - terminal%20drought

Plusieurs études ont signalé un apport accru de carbone dans les processus souterrains. Un aspect important à considérer à ce point dans la revue de littérature est que la plupart des expériences concernent la croissance de plantes pendant une courte période dans un volume de sol limité à un pot ou de la taille d'un bac. Dans une étude avec des herbes et du trèfle cultivés en bac, on montre que, au cours d'une période de sécheresse terminale se développant vite, l'efficience de l'utilisation de l'eau est presque doublée et que le stress apparaît plus tard à une [CO2] élevée. Ces conditions améliorent donc la possibilité d'éviter le stress de sécheresse. 2, record 2, French, - s%C3%A9cheresse%20terminale

Is the realisation that systematic and continuing attention to detail in the design of(mainly mass or repetitively produced mechanical) products can yield large benefits stemming from lower costs per unit value. The benefit can be realised in a variety of ways(higher margins, lower prices, more promotion, greater productivity or lower inventory costs). Application of the value concept involves value analysis and value engineering. 1, record 4, English, - value%20concept
