Analysis was done with the program OR-NATURE (M.Ungs et al, 1985) . Central Tunisia was subdivided into northern, central, and southern subzones. Data about...
Yield, proximate composition, and proteolytic activity were
determined in each unit operation during production of surimi from
Pacific whiting. Preliminary studies involved the addition of protein
adjuncts such as egg white (EW), whey protein concentrate (WPC), and soy
protein isolate (SPI), at different levels, to kamaboko gels in order to...

Foliar B sprays have increased fruit set in 'Italian' prune
(Prunus domestica L.) by 2 fold in some trials and had no effect
in others. This work was conducted to identify reasons for this
inconsistent response. Since B levels in flowers are associated
with the amount of fruit set, factors...
Eight postemergence herbicides were evaluated to determine
their influence on the incidence and severity of take-all disease
caused by the fungus Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici in winter
wheat. Mecoprop ((+)-2-(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)propanoic acid),
difenzoquat (1,2- dimethyl- 3,5- diphenyl -1H- pyrazolium), dinoseb amine
(amine salt of 2-(1-methylpropy1)-4,6-dinitrophenol), and diclofopmethyl
(methyl ester of (+)-2-[4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)...
