its resistance in previous work has been shown to be similar to Guardian ® ( Beckman et al., 2008 ). On closer inspection, it was discovered that a number of trees on ‘Sharpe’ had been set with the graft union slightly below the soil line, resulting
States if intercepted during preexport inspections. Lesser pests include the leaf-curling midge, mites, leafhoppers, mealybugs, and scale insects, which are generally managed by natural enemies ( Wearing et al., 1994 ). Centered around Hawke's Bay, on
before field planting. Table 1. Flower morphology and seed set of different Prunella vulgaris accessions. Observations of floral morphology and in-bud pollen release. Floral morphology was evaluated through visual inspection, and flowers were digitally
hammermilled as previously described for PWC on 10 Jan. 2012. On visual inspection, the two wood components exhibited substantially different geometries with the PWC being non-fibrous “blockular” with smooth edges and the SPW being more linear and fibrous in
inspection and sampling at European designated points of entry where samples are to be analyzed for the presence of pesticide residues before the consignments are released into the market ( HCDA, 2011 ). This testing revealed that a majority of small
interest. Visual inspection of discolored tissue indicated that the pathogen had colonized xylem tissue in addition to causing phloem necrosis, and the water potential data support this observation because the smallest lesion sizes and least negative water
not change appreciably over time as a result of their hardness and stability. However, the particle size distribution of the other substrates could change as a result of weathering. On visual inspection, most of the inorganic substrates provided a
quality and quantity of DNA was monitored by spectrophotometry and gel inspection. A total of 16 RAPD primers (MWG Operon Technologies, Ebersberg, Germany) were used for PCR amplification ( Table 4 ). PCR reactions were carried out in a total volume of 25
total of 84% of the seeds obtained was presumed viable based on visual inspection (seeds were plump and dark brown), and their average germination rate was 36%. A total of 45 seedlings was obtained, and when they grew, based on their morphology, it
heterozygosity (H o ), and expected heterozygosity (H t ) per locus. Analysis of SSR marker data. Alleles were scored by visual inspection in comparison with molecular markers, and stutter bands were accounted for. A weight matrix was constructed using Microsoft
