EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (1 PAGE) Project objectives Plastics in agriculture and in tourism/public catering represents an important environmental issue which is related to waste disposal, landscape management and sustainable agriculture development. “BIOMASS” project has being aimed to: reduce the amount of plastic used in the agricultural sector, change growers’ habits or choices relevant to the production process: use of soil mulching for weed control and , anticipate harvest for winter crops, production of potted plant, nursery productions; reduce waste production in beach front concession, in canteens or during summer village feast; implement differentiated waste disposal; support the change of regional policies and regulations in the field of the use of biodegradable raw materials, preventing waste production and disposal. Consequently, the project is focused on the spreading of the use of biodegradable raw materials (starch-based technologies), addressed to the reduction of non-biodegradable or non-compostable wastes, through research activities aimed at stimulating the use of biodegradable materials in the agricultural and tourist sector, giving the scientific support for modifying environmental and agricultural regional regulations, helping a new cultural approach to environment protection. Solutions and products Results of the project are ensured by applying these solutions and products: Compostable pots for ornamental potted plants: revolutionary approach to the polypropylene substitution for organic and conventional floriculture. It is based on the evolution of starch-based materials which are used for potted crop production, followed by the conventional management of pots during transportation, marketing and domestic ornamental uses, but with an added value, at the end of life cycle of plants, due to the possibility of a home/industrial composting of used materials. Biodegradable films for soil mulching: substitution of conventional polyethylene mulching films to control weeds and to anticipate harvest of winter crops (black or transparent biodegradable films). The so-called “white pollution”, caused by the use of polyethylene mulching films in agriculture is particularly addressed by Biomass project, comparing the effectiveness of biodegradable films with traditional polyethylene ones. Plates, glasses, cutlery, rubbish bags: substitution of conventional dinner-set and set and cutlery with biodegradable ones. The use of plates, glasses and cutlery manufactured with cellulose and thermoplastic starch allow the composting of kitchen wastes, reducing the non compostable waste production in beach front concession, in refectory, and during summer village feast. Implementation of differentiated waste disposal using starch-based rubbish bags. Results and perspectives – success indicators Thanks to a 3 years activity and the involvement of regional government, professional operators and consumers the following significant results were obtained: 1.158.385 plates, glasses, cutlery distributed; 114,1 ha of soil mulched with biodegradable films; 130.000 compostable pots used for ornamental plant production. 32.000 Compostable bags (5 and 120 litres of volume) and 11 containers (composters) for organic waste collection distributed. The summarized activities involved more than 50 farms in the agricultural sector and more than 30 companies in the tourist sector and 5 public schools. Information was disseminated through newspapers, technical journals, brochures, leaflets, DVD and broadcast. The project web site, implemented with new project results, has been contacted by more than 130-150 monthly contacts. 4 Obiettivi del progetto L’impiego della plastica nel settore agricolo e nel settore ricreativo turistico/pubblico rappresenta un problema ambientale significativo che è correlate allo smaltimento dei rifiuti, alla gestione del paesaggio e ad uno sviluppo sostenibile dell’attività agricola. Il progetto “BIOMASS” si è posto come obiettivo: ridurre il quantitativo di plastica impiegata nel settore agricolo, modificare le abitudini o le scelte degli agricoltori relativamente ai processi produttivi: uso di film di pacciamatura per il controllo delle infestanti e per l’anticipazione colturale di specie invernali, produzione di piante in vaso, produzione in vivaio; ridurre la produzione di rifiuti all’interno degli stabilimenti balneari, delle mense scolastiche o in occasione di feste paesane; rendere effettiva la raccolta differenziata dei rifiuti; dare supporto alla modifica dei disciplinari di produzione messi a punto dalle autorità regionale relativamente all’uso di materiali biodegradabili, alla riduzione del volume di rifiuti prodotti e smaltiti. Conseguentemente il progetto è incentrato sulla diffusione dell’uso di materiali biodegradabili (a base di amido di mais) nell’ottica di ridurre l’impiego di materiali non biodegradabili o non comportabili attraverso attività di ricerca volte a stimolare l’uso di materiali biodegradabili nel settore agricolo e turistico fornendo supporto scientifico alla modifica dei regolamenti regionali nel settore ambientale e agricolo e promuovendo un nuovo tipo di approccio culturale volto alla protezione dell’ambiente. Soluzioni e prodotti L’ottenimento di specifici risultati è garantito dall’applicazione dei seguenti soluzioni e prodotti: Vasi comportabili per la produzione di piante in vaso: un approccio rivoluzionario per la sostituzione del tradizionale polipropilene all’interno di protocolli di produzione biologica o tradizionale di specie ornamentali. Esso è basato sull’evoluzione di materiali a base di amido utilizzati per la produzione di piante in vaso, seguita dalla tradizionale gestione dei vasi durante le fasi di trasporto, vendita uso in ambiente domestico, ma con valore aggiunto al termine del ciclo della pianta, dovuto alla possibilità di avviare ad un processo di compostaggio di tipo industriale o domestico il materiale utilizzato. Film di pacciamatura biodegradabili: sostituzione di film di pacciamatura tradizionali in polietilene per il controllo delle infestanti e per anticipare la raccolta in colture invernali (film di pacciamatura neri o trasparenti rispettivamente). Il tipo di inquinamento chiamato “white pollution” è particolarmente preso in considerazione dal progetto Biomass che si

  • 1 Ornamental Palms
    1 Ornamental Palms: Biology and Horticulture T.K. Broschat and M.L. Elliott Fort Lauderdale Research and Education Center University of Florida, Davie, FL 33314, USA D.R. Hodel University of California Cooperative Extension Alhambra, CA 91801, USA ABSTRACT Ornamental palms are important components of tropical, subtropical, and even warm temperate climate landscapes. In colder climates, they are important interiorscape plants and are often a focal point in malls, businesses, and other public areas. As arborescent monocots, palms have a unique morphology and this greatly influences their cultural requirements. Ornamental palms are over- whelmingly seed propagated, with seeds of most species germinating slowly and being intolerant of prolonged storage or cold temperatures. They generally do not have dormancy requirements, but do require high temperatures (30–35°C) for optimum germination. Palms are usually grown in containers prior to trans- planting into a field nursery or landscape. Because of their adventitious root system, large field-grown specimen palms can easily be transplanted. In the landscape, palm health and quality are greatly affected by nutritional deficien- cies, which can reduce their aesthetic value, growth rate, or even cause death. Palm life canCOPYRIGHTED also be shortened by a number of MATERIAL diseases or insect pests, some of which are lethal, have no controls, or have wide host ranges. With the increasing use of palms in the landscape, pathogens and insect pests have moved with the Horticultural Reviews, Volume 42, First Edition. Edited by Jules Janick. 2014 Wiley-Blackwell.

Characterising plant pathogen communities and their environmental drivers at a national scale A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University by Andreas Makiola Lincoln University, New Zealand 2019 General abstract Plant pathogens play a critical role for global food security, conservation of natural ecosystems and future resilience and sustainability of ecosystem services in general. Thus, it is crucial to understand the large-scale processes that shape plant pathogen communities. The recent drop in DNA sequencing costs offers, for the first time, the opportunity to study multiple plant pathogens simultaneously in their naturally occurring environment effectively at large scale. In this thesis, my aims were (1) to employ next-generation sequencing (NGS) based metabarcoding for the detection and identification of plant pathogens at the ecosystem scale in New Zealand, (2) to characterise plant pathogen communities, and (3) to determine the environmental drivers of these communities. First, I investigated the suitability of NGS for the detection, identification and quantification of plant pathogens using rust fungi as a model system.
