For some there is not much leeway between necessary and toxic amounts; other plants require or tolerate large amounts. Deficiency symptoms vary with the crop... Beets, turnips, other root crops. Black Heart, Brown Heart. Roots have dark spots; plants are gradually stunted and dwarfed; leaves are small, variegated, twisted. The interior of the beet or turnip has a dark brown to nearly black water-soaked area, sometimes with a hollow center. The amount of borax that can be added without injury depends on type of soil and moisture content.

Le manque de bore cause la maladie du «cœur brun» ou «pourriture du cœur» de la betterave. Les feuilles du cœur se développent mal, brunissent et meurent. Une déficience grave se marque par un noircissement subséquent du tissu intérieur, sous la couronne des feuilles. Une vacuole noire se forme, progressant vers l'intérieur de la racine. Parfois, de petites feuilles déformées se développent sur les bords de la vacuole. Lutte : l'application de borax, à raison de 20 à 25 kg/ha, doit être effectuée avant semis ou après la levée.

El cecidómido de la coliflor (también conocido como mosquito de la col) es una plaga euroasiática de las crucíferas. La “cabeza ciega” en el brócoli, el repollo, la coliflor y otras crucíferas es una de las características típicas de la presencia de infestación por el cecidómido de la coliflor. Sus larvas afectan los puntos de crecimiento terminales de las crucíferas, ocasionando la interrupción o el cese del crecimiento en estos tejidos.

Record 7 2002-08-27

English

Subject field(s)
  • Medication
DEF

Drug which increases the contractility of the heart muscle. The most commonly used glycosides acting on the heart are obtained from the leaves of Digitalis purpurea and lanata, from the seeds of Strophantus kombé and gratus, and also from the squill. Cardiac glycosides act by raising the concentration of calcium ions available intracellularly for electromechanical coupling. They thus exert a positive inotropic effect on the healthy, the hypertrophied, the still adequate, and the failing heart.
