Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book offers techniques and setup guides for a portable refrigeration unit meant to give farmers and researchers precise control over the temperature surrounding plants, enabling studies of plant responses to varying temperatures. Portable refrigeration chambers have been used to simulate natural drops in temperature in order to mimic conditions that lead to injuries in plants, helping scientists better understand the phenomenon and develop more resilient crops. The book argues that by using these chambers, researchers can learn more about how plants respond to temperature changes, develop more resilient crops, and even explore the potential for extending the growing season in certain areas. The book's insights into plant biology and practical applications for agriculture are critical reading for anyone interested in advancing our understanding of plant hardiness and developing more resilient crops. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex world of corn diseases, exploring the factors that contribute to their development and the devastating impact they have on crop yields. The author, a pioneer in the field of corn breeding, meticulously examines a range of parasitic organisms that infect corn plants, from the common scutellum rot to the less familiar black-bundle disease. He also investigates the role of environmental factors, such as soil temperature and moisture, in influencing disease susceptibility. A significant portion of the book is dedicated to exploring the genetic factors that determine a plant's resilience to various diseases, a topic of growing importance for agricultural researchers. The author's work, conducted in the early 20th century, reflects the growing concern at the time about the impact of diseases on crop production. By analyzing the causes of disease and exploring the genetic basis of resistance, this book provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the challenges facing corn growers and lays the foundation for future advancements in corn breeding.
