CONT

The multispecies production model... was applied to simulate stock dynamics in yearly time steps and interactions of the cod, herring, and sprat stocks in the central Baltic from 1982 to 2013. It considers the trophic interactions among these stocks(predation of cod on herring, sprat, and young cod), the environmental impact on growth of cod and herring and density dependent growth of sprat. Predation in the model depends on the biomass of available food, thus cod cannibalism is dependent on clupeid biomass.

OBS

During the Train to Train stage(females 11-15, males 12-16), young athletes need to build an aerobic base and consolidate their sport-specific skills. Towards the end of the stage, they need to focus on strength and the anaerobic alactic energy system. Increased training hours are needed at this stage to develop each athlete's long-term potential. The ages that define the Train to Train stage are based on the approximate onset and end of the adolescent growth spurt. This period is generally defined as ages 11 to 15 years for females and 12 to 16 years for males. At this stage, athletes are ready to consolidate their basic sport-specific skills and tactics. It is also a major fitness development stage. The Train to Train stage makes or breaks the athlete. Athletes may exhibit special talent, play to win, and do their best, but they still need to allocate more time to training skills and physical capacities than competing in formal settings.

OBS

There are seven stages within the Long-Term Athlete Development (LTAD) model, each of them covering a different age span for boys and girls. They are as follows: Active Start, FUNdamental, Learn to Train, Train to Train, Train to Compete, Train to Win and Active for Life.

OBS

The title "Training to Train" was used in the Report of the Minister of State’s (Sport) Work Group on Sport for Persons with a Disability (Final Report - July 13, 2004) and in the Sport Canada Glossary.

OBS

Au stade S'entraîner à s'entraîner, les jeunes athlètes ont besoin de développer leur base aérobie et de consolider leurs habiletés spécifiques au sport. Vers la fin du stade, ils doivent se concentrer sur la force et le système anaérobie alactique. À ce stade, il est nécessaire d'augmenter les heures d'entraînement pour développer le potentiel à long terme de chaque athlète. L'intervalle d'âge qui définit le stade S'entraîner à s'entraîner se base sur le début et la fin approximatifs de la poussée de croissance à l'adolescence. En général, cette période se situe entre 11 et 15 ans chez les femmes et entre 12 et 16 ans chez les hommes. À ce stade, les athlètes sont prêts à consolider leurs habiletés et tactiques de base spécifiques au sport. Il s'agit aussi d'un stade propice au développement de la forme physique. Le stade S'entraîner à s'entraîner est un stade critique pour les athlètes. Ils peuvent être dotés d'un talent particulier, jouer pour gagner et faire de leur mieux, mais ils doivent tout de même allouer plus de temps à l'entraînement des habiletés et des capacités physiques qu'aux compétitions officielles.

OBS

Le [Développement à long terme du participant/athlète (DLTP/A)] est constitué de sept stades, chaque stade couvrant une période d'âge différente pour les garçons ou les filles. Les stades sont : Enfant actif, S'amuser grâce au sport, Apprendre à s'entraîner, S'entraîner à s'entraîner, S'entraîner à la compétition, S'entraîner à gagner et le dernier stade est Vie active.

Disease of sugar beet caused by Peronospora farinosa (formerly P. schachtii).

OBS

Symptoms : All aboveground plant parts may be affected. Large, light green leaf spots develop on the upper leaf surfaces. Under moist conditions, a white to gray moldy appears on the lower or upper leaf surfaces. Affected leaves may wilt, then die. If environmental conditions become unfavorable for downy mildew, plants may show recovery by developing healthy leaves, or other pathogens may be encouraged. During fall wet periods, most young petioles or leaves are covered with a fungal growth that often moves into the crown. Crown infections may permit other root-decay organisms to invade the plant. Crown infection causes excessive leaf proliferation which in turn causes misshapen bulbs.

DEF

Maladie de la betterave causée par le champignon Peronospora farinosa (anciennement P. schachtii).

CONT

Le mildiou de la betterave est une maladie des régions tempérées humides. Il se développe préférentiellement en conditions humides et relativement froides. Le champignon s'étend de façon systémique dans la plante et produit de nombreuses spores qui sont disséminées par la pluie. [Il] provoque un épaississement des feuilles du cœur. Ces feuilles s'enroulent et se couvrent, principalement à la face inférieure, d'un duvet violacé. Au cours de leur croissance, les feuilles extérieures pâlissent et se dessèchent.

OBS

Le terme utilisé en français est «mildiou de la betterave» même s'il est plus générique car le pathogène de cette maladie ne cause pas seulement le mildiou sur la betterave à sucre mais aussi sur les autres types de betteraves. Comme il s'agit de la même maladie (symptômes identiques), le français ne fait pas de distinction selon le type de betterave affectée.

Downy mildew of grape can be a serious disease in ... vineyards. This fungus disease develops whenever weather during the growing season is moist and temperatures are cool to moderate. The downy mildew fungus attacks leaves, fruit, shoots and tendrils. The disease may cause premature defoliation in mid to late summer that results in a weakening of the plant and reduced sugar content of the fruit.

OBS

On leaves, young infections appear as very small, greenish-yellow, translucent spots that are difficult to see. With time, the lesions enlarge and a white moldy growth composed of fungus threads(mycelium) and spores form on the undersides of the leaves. If lesions are numerous they may merge and cover most of the leaf. Infected leaves eventually turn brown, become dry and drop. Exposed berries may be scalded by the sun. If vines are defoliated before the ripening period, grapes may not mature normally.

Le mildiou de la vigne est une maladie indigène de l'Amérique du Nord causée par le champignon Plasmopara viticola. Cette maladie infecte la plupart des espèces du genre Vitis (vigne). Les cultivars de l'espèce vinifera y sont très sensibles alors que les espèces sauvages y sont relativement résistantes. Le mildiou peut causer des dommages directs à la vigne en provoquant la déformation des pousses, des vrilles et des grappes ou en provoquant la chute prématurée des feuilles, ce qui retarde le mûrissement des fruits et augmente la vulnérabilité de la vigne aux blessures par l'hiver.

Downy Mildew of Cabbage. Caused by the fungus Peronospora parasitica. Damage occurs mostly to young plants or to exposed leaves of heading plants.

CONT

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.

The stands of juvenile trees don’t need to be spaced the same distance that mature trees require, because there is an optimum spacing which encourages natural pruning of lower branches. Such natural pruning is a desirable energy saver for the land owner. Also, conifers have a growth habit built in, called geotrophism, which is what makes a tree grow vertically rather than just meandering crookedly up to its finished height. Using the force of geotrophism to advantage, we may just crowd our trees just enough to keep them reaching higher than a specimen tree with its bushy branching and its severly bushy habit. All this doesn’t give you a formula to work with though, so try this approach. You should thin most stands of juvenile age to intermediate age trees to about eight feet apart. Later, as the trees mature, they could be spaced even farther to as much as twelve feet apart.

CONT

The objective of this study was to describe the different morphological gradients being used as the basis for the development of the shape of the stem system in young forest-grown 7-year-old beeches...

Cette étude a pour objectif de mettre en évidence, chez de jeunes hêtres forestiers âgés de 7 ans, les différents gradients morphologiques servant de base à l'élaboration de la forme de leur système caulinaire [...] Trois gradients morphogénétiques simples rendent compte de la dynamique de développement de leur système caulinaire global [...] Le troisième se traduit par la réduction graduelle du taux d'accroissement annuel et du degré de ramification des axes les plus bas dans l'arbre et annonce leur déclin et leur disparition prochaine par élagage naturel.

Propagating from softwood cuttings : 1. To grow shrubs from cuttings of softwood, the young growth of late spring or early summer, remove 5 to 7 inches of healthy stem tips. Use a sharp knife and make a cut 1/2 inch below a leaf joint. Sprinkle the stems with water and wrap them in damp burlap to keep them moistened. 2. When you are ready to root the cuttings, trim the leaves on large-leaved plants to reduce their size by one third to one half. Remove any flowers, buds and leaves on the lower third of the stems.

Kniffin Training. This is the most popular training system in the eastern regions. The photograph in Plate VIII shows a young vine trained to the four-cane Kniffin form, just after it has been pruned. The vine consists of a trunk about four feet long, to reach to the top wire of a four-foot trellis. Near the head may be seen two canes and two spurs-the canes to produce the season's crop, and the spurs to produce the renewal wood for the subsequent season. At a point on the trunk near the lower wire, two canes with their spurs are also left. These lower canes are pruned somewhat shorter than the top canes, because the growth of their shoots tends to be less vigorous. Shoots from the eyes of the four canes droop downward(a normal way of growth for many of the native hybrids) forming a mantle of foliage for the fruit.(A Wine-Grower's Guide, 1965, p. 121).
