BORDEAUX 89% of wine produced in Bordeaux is red (called "claret" in Britain), with sweet white wines (most notably Sauternes), dry whites, rosé and sparkling wines (Crémant de Bordeaux) collectively making up the remainder. Terminologies • Claret - is a name primarily used in British English for red Bordeaux wine. Claret derives from the French clairet, a now uncommon dark rosé, which was the most common wine exported from Bordeaux until the 18th • Sauternes - is a French sweet wine from

Report In this task we were required to collect, process and analyse field data, to investigate the biological impact of trampling on two ecosystems, wastelands area and the athletics track area. I found that on the athletics track where there was trampling and mowing the plant organisms were short and in the quadrat 1-2 of the wasteland area where there was no mowing the plant organisms were tall. In the wasteland area there was more of a variety of organisms, was densely populated and a clear

on insect pest management. He joined Rothamsted Experimental Station in September 1943, where he studied DDT and other new insecticides. He made two major contributions to the world of entomology. The first contribution was a study on peach-potato aphid and the second pointed out during a debate in the 70’s on ecosystem diversity and stability, that for any pest problem, “how with the introduction of just one element of new diversity would usually be all that was needed to improve control.

INTRODUCTION Bitter gourd is a vegetable and it belongs to the family cucurbitacea. It is grown for both commercial as well as economic purpose across the various state of the country. It is produced mainly in tropical and sub-tropical regions of India i.e. Maharashtra, Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka. Botanical name: Memordica charantia Season: Jan – Mar & Sept – Dec are the ideal seasons. For rainy season crop, sowing can started after the receiving of first few showers during May-June. The

These make holes in the starting leaves which emerges from a watermelon seed during seedling emergence or formation.  Control: Spray Carbaryl (4 ml/litre of water) or Metacid (1ml/litre of water) during the seedling stage. 2) Aphids (Aphis sp.): Aphids attack the plant leaves & suck the leaf sap. This lead to withering & crinkling of leaves in young stage. In fully grown vines leaves turn yellow.  Control: Spray Malathion (0.1 %) or Rogor (0.1-0.2%) before the attack becomes severe.

Practical Research & Report Assessment. Allelopathy and interference and the effect they have on plant growth. Allelopathy occurs in plants. Many plants produce chemicals that may be harmful or beneficial to other plants. In some cases a species can produce chemicals that can prevent the growth or germination of another species. An example of this is Australian native plants such as Casuarinas and Eucalypts which produce allelochemicals that prevent competition of other plants. This is a form of

10) AGRICULTURAL BIOTECHNOLOGY: (EGAN) Using examples, discuss how microbial interactions can be exploited for biocontrol? What methods are available to improve the efficiency of biocontrol agents? Natural environments tend to be balanced environments, where organisms rely on each other and also constrain one another by competition for resources or by parasitism, predation, etc. However, human activity has causes effects that disturbs these balances, and this is most evident when an exotic organism

Domenic DiSalvo Trimble EWRT 2 The Misconception of GMOs A man goes shopping at his local grocery store with his list in hand, as he begins picking out fruit from shelves and placing them in plastic bags. The average natural fruit has changed over time, for genetic modification is now required for every crop. He picks up a freak mutant of what once was a regular apple and looks around to make sure no one is looking before he takes a bite out of it. After that, he hides the seed and continues his

Chapter 2 1.0 Jambosa jambos (wax apple) or Syzygium samarangense 1.1 Botany 1.1.1 Origin and distribution This wax apple is origin in Malaysia.
