Developing starter cultures for the optimisation of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) fermentation
The overall objective of the study was to optimise natural fermentation of cassava through development of starter cultures of lactic acid cassava bacteria (LAB) and softening bacteria to address quality variations of the end product, in terms of acidification and softening inconsistencies. Several …

Irrigation of acacia and eucalyptus species with waters of different salinities in a semi-arid environment in Formentera, Balearic Islands
The study investigated whether good growth rates could be obtained for trees in a semi-arid environment (Formentera, Balearic Islands) using small quantities of highly saline irrigation water. Soil improvement and avoidance of detrimental long term effects was a prime objective. Two species, …

The analytical chemistry of agricultural guanidine fungicides
A programme of research on agricultural guanidine fungicides, represented by a complex mixture of several components (guazatine) and by a single compound (dedine[?] ), was carried out. The studies involved the synthesis of several guanidine derivatives and their characterization by spectroscopic …

A comparative study of certain soil-borne cereal pathogens with reference to carbohydrate utilisation and polysaccharide hydrolysis
Cochliobolus sativus, Fusarium culmorum and Gaeumannomyces graminis var tritici isolates produced pectin degrading enzymes, xylanase and carboxymethylcellulase when grown in a salts medium with an appropriate carbon source. There was little difference in the amounts of enzymes produced by the …
