Mite Movement The mites are wingless but can crawl from plant to plant. They’re so small and light they can be carried long dis- tances on wind currents, sometimes called ballooning. For this reason, it has been suggested that taller roses may be more susceptible. Unfortunately, the mites can also be transported on clothing, tools and possibly by phoresy (attaching them- selves to larger critters).

  • Blackberry Rosette Cercosporella Rubi
    Blackberry Rosette Cercosporella rubi Rosette disease, also called double blossom disease, is a destructive disease of blackberries in Louisiana and other southeastern states. If left unmanaged, commercial production can be severely limited because diseased canes will not produce berries. The disease, caused by the fungus Cercosporella rubi, has a biennial cycle, which matches the growth pattern of blackberries. The fungus attacks primocanes in the spring, overwin- ters in dormant buds, and the infected canes then develop symptoms the following year on the flo- ricanes. Spores of the fungus are dispersed from infected flowers to the young buds of primocanes by wind and insects. The fungus has a very narrow host range and has not been reported on other types of brambles such as raspberry, boysenberry or tayberry in the United States. Flowers on diseased fruiting canes are more red or pink in color than healthy flowers and have distorted petals and enlarged sepals, which gives them the appearance of a double flower. Infected plants produce multiple branches with abnormal leaf production. Young leaves are light green and eventually turn yellowish-brown giving the leaves a bronzing appearance. Diseased canes do not produce berries, and berry production on non- infected canes is small and of poor quality. Rosette can be successfully managed through a combination of resistance, cultural practices and chemical treatments. Plant-resistant varieties. Most of the thorny, erect blackberry varieties are very suscep- tible to rosette and require careful and extensive attention to management. The thornless varieties Rosette formations on blackberries infected with ‘Arapaho’, ‘Apache’, ‘Navaho’ and ‘Ouachita’ are the fungus Cercosporella rubi moderately resistant to resistant to rosette and also grow well in Louisiana.

  • Chapter 2. Vegetative Morphology of Plants Vegetative Morphology of Plants
    Chapter 2. Vegetative morphology of plants Vegetative morphology of plants INTRODUCTION: THE PLANT’S BASIC BODY PLAN Most plants are photosynthetic machines: they capture the energy contained in sunlight and transform solar radiation into chemical energy stored the form of bonds in chains of carbon molecules. Through the process of photosynthesis, light and atmospheric CO2 are combined in the leaves of green plants to form simple carbohydrates, which are then used to build other organic molecules such as cellulose, starch, oils, waxes, proteins, or DNA. Six molecules of CO2 (and some 72 photons of light) are needed to form one molecule of glucose: sunlight 6 CO2 + 6 H2O → C6H12O6 + 6 O2 As a byproduct of the process, six molecules of oxygen are formed and dissipated from the leaf tissue into the atmosphere. To achieve this remarkable feat of turning atmospheric carbon dioxide into living molecules while releasing oxygen into the earth’s atmosphere, plants have evolved highly specialized organs. The light-intercepting structure par excellence is the leaf. The set of leaves in the upper aerial part of the plant form the plant’s canopy, where the plant exchanges gases with the atmosphere and intercepts light from the sun. But in order to work its chemical wonder up in the leaves, the plant also needs water and mineral nutrients such as phosphorus, essential for the synthesis of DNA, or nitrogen, essential for manufacturing proteins. In order to obtain these, plants have developed the root —a complex network of underground stem-like organs— whose role is the absorption of water and mineral nutrients from the soil, and, in doing so, anchoring the plant to the ground.

  • 'O Rose Thou Art Sick': Floral Symbolism in William Blake's Poetry
    ‘O Rose Thou Art Sick’: Floral Symbolism in William Blake’s Poetry Noelia Malla1 ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Available Online March 2014 The primary aim of this paper is to analyse the symbolic implications of Key words: floral imagery in William Blake’s poetry. More specifically, this study William Blake; explores the process of floral (re)signification of William Blake’s Songs of Songs of Innocence and of Innocence (1789) and Songs of Experience (1794) as case studies. Since Experience; “Without contraries [there] is no progression” (Marriage of Heaven and The Sick Rose; Hell, plate 3), it can be argued that the Songs represent contrary aspects floral imagery. of the human condition that far from contradicting each other, establish a static contrast of shifting tensions and revaluation of the flower-image not only as a perfect symbol of the “vegetable” life rooted to the Earth but also as a figure longing to be free. In some sense at some level, the poetic- prophetic voice asserts in the Songs of Experience the state of corruption where man has fallen into. Ultimately, this study will explore how the failure to overcome the contrast that is suggested in the Songs will be deepened by the tragedy of Thel, which is symbolized by all unborn forces of life, all sterile seeds as an ultimate means of metaphorical regeneration throughout Poetry which constitutes in itself the Poet Prophet’s own means of transcending through art. William Blake (1757-1827) was the first English poet to work out the revolutionary structure of imagery that (re)signifies through the Romantic poetry.

Wild and cultivated potatoes form the germplasm base for international breeding efforts to improve potato in the face of a variety of disease, environmental and agronomic constraints. A series of national and international genebanks collect, characterize and distribute germplasm to stimulate and aid potato improvement. A knowledge of potato taxonomy and evolution guides collecting efforts, genebank operations and breeding. Past taxonomic treatments of wild and cultivated potato have differed tremendously among authors with regard to both the number of species recognized and the hypotheses of their interrelationships. In total, there are 494 epithets for wild and 626 epithets for cultivated taxa, including names not validly published. Recent classifications, however, recognize only about 100 wild species and four cultivated species. This paper compiles, for the first time, the epithets associated with all taxa of cultivated potato (many of which have appeared only in the Russian literature), places them in synonymy and provides lectotype designations for all names validly published where possible.
