The use of mycorrhizal fungi in horticulture
What are mycorrhizal fungi?
Mycorrhizal fungi form symbiosis with > 90% of land plants
They live in the soil and colonize plant roots
Mycorrhizae provides better absorption of nutrients and increased water uptake to the plant in exchange for carbon supply
They cannot function without living plants
Plants control the symbiosis, root exudates trigger spore...

The impact of long-term organic farming on soil-derived greenhouse gas emissions
Agricultural practices contribute considerably to emissions of greenhouse gases. So far, knowledge on the impact of organic compared to non-organic farming on soil-derived nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4) emissions is limited. We investigated N2O and CH4fluxes with manual chambers during 571 days in a grass-clover– silage maize – green...

Tropilaelapsose: Une maladie parasitaire du couvain
La tropilaelapsose affecte les larves et les pupes des abeilles. Elle est causée par des acariens du genre Tropilaelaps. Les parasites se nourrissent de larves et de pupes d'abeilles et provoquent des malformations, la mort et, en conséquence, l’essaimage ou le déclin des colonies. Les acariens tropilaelaps sont des parasites naturels communs...

Taking care of okra
Too much drought can slow down growth and cause young fruits to fall. Water your okra regularly to avoid slowing down its growth. Get rid of weeds. Nourish okra crops by periodically applying a little compost, well-rotted manure or litter around the base of each okra plant.
