Ultraviolet-C (UV-C) for disease and pest management and automating UV-C delivery technology for strawberry
F. Takeda, W. Janisiewicz, B. Short, T. Leskey, A. Stager Abstract Alternative disease and pest management strategies are needed due to increased resistance by strawberry pathogens and arthropod pests to currently used synthetic pesticides and increasing consumer...Plasma sanitization of cherry belle radish seeds for Space agricultural applications
Ryan P Gott, K. W Engeling, Christina M Johnson, Haley O Boles, Victoria C Brown, Mary Hummerick, Gioia D Massa and Annie J Meier Abstract As human innovation continuously expands the knowledge base for life beyond Earth, the need for self-sufficient spacecraft is...Estimation of nitrogen content in cucumber plant (Cucumis sativus L.) leaves using hyperspectral imaging data with neural network and partial least squares regressions
Sajad Sabzi, Razieh Pourdarbani, Mohammad H. Rohban, Ginés García-Mateos, Juan I. Arribas Abstract In recent years, farmers have often mistakenly resorted to overuse of chemical fertilizers to increase crop yield. However, excessive consumption of fertilizers might...Potential of far ultraviolet (UV) 222 nm light for management of strawberry fungal pathogens
Wojciech Janisiewicz, Fumiomi Takeda, Breyn Evans, Mary Camp Abstract Recently developed, night-time irradiation provided the breakthrough that made ultraviolet (UV) technology with 254 nm (UV–C) commercially feasible as a sustainable alternative to synthetic...Carbon dioxide enrichment promoted the growth, yield, and light-use efficiency of lettuce in a plant factory with artificial lighting
Danyan Chen,Yanhao Mei,Qi Liu,Yongjun Wu,Zhenchao Yang Abstract Lettuce (Latuca sativa L.) is a commercially important crop and a good candidate for production in a plant factory with artificial lighting (PFAL). To explore the influence of CO2 enrichment (eCO2) on...
