Control de malezas en el cultivo de la soya (Glycine max L. Merril) variedad (Biloxi y hardee) 69-341

En el Centro Experimental Agropecuario La Calera, Managua, Nicaragua, se estableció en siembra de agosto a noviembre de 1976, un ensayo para determinar el tratamiento mas efectivo y rentable en el control de las malezas del cultivo de la soya (Glycine max L. Merril). Se escogió la variedad (Biloxi x Hardee) 69-341 de crecimiento determinado y ciclo vegetativo intermedio de 90-100 días. Los tratamientos que se evaluaron fueron los siguientes: Alachlor, Metribuzin, Linuron, Trifluralina, Alachlor + Metribuzin, Alachlor + Linuron, Alachlor + Trifluralina, Metribuzin + Lanuron, Metribuzin + Trifluralina, Linuron + Trifluralina en dosis de 2049,5 ml, 497,70 g, 966,00 g, 533,75 ml, 1024,75 ml + 248,85 g, 1024,75 ml + 483,00 g, 1024,75 ml + 266,87 ml, 248,85 g + 483,00 g, 248,85 g + 266,87 ml y 483,00 g, + 266,87 ml, por hectárea respectivamente, usando como comparadores un tratamiento mecánico y un testigo absoluto. Los tratamientos fueron distribuidos en un diseño de bloques completos al azar, con cuatro repeticiones. La parcela experimental consto de ocho surcos de cinco metros de largo, espaciados a cincuenta centímetros entre si y a 2,50 centímetros entre planta, correspondiendo a la parcela útil los cuatro surcos centrales a los cuales se les elimino 50,0 centímetros en cada extremo. El análisis de varianza practicado en los rendimientos de granos y en los porcentajes de control de malezas determino diferencia altamente significativa entre tratamientos al nivel de 0,01 de probabilidad de error. La mezcla de Alachlor + Metribuzin fue el tratamiento herbicida que ejerció el mayor control sobre gramíneas y hojas ancha, con 97,00 por ciento de control hasta los 60 días de emergida la soya. Los tratamientos Metribuzin, Metribuzin + Trifluralina y Alachlor fueron estadisticamente igual al nivel del 0,05 de probabilidad de error con: 74,00; 72,00 y 71;00 por ciento. Los tratamientos que menor porcentaje de control de malezas ejercieron hasta los 60 dias fueron Linuron y Linuron + Trifluralina con 34.00 por ciento. Los mayores rendimientos significativos de grano de soya, se lograron con: testigo mecanico, Alachlor + Metribuzin, Alachlor, y Alachlor + Linuron obteniendo 2,539.00, 2.294.00, 2.279.00 y 2.194.00 kilogramos por hectárea respectivamente. Los menores rendimientos correspondieron a: Trifluralina con 1,103.00 hectarea y testigo absoluto con 844.00 por hectarea. El analisis economico de los rendimientos por tratamiento, revelo que los mayores ingresos netos se obtuvieron con: testigo mecánico, Alachlor + Metribuzin, y Alachlor y Alachlor + Linuron de: 1,945.22, 1,800.12, 1,771.87 y 1,668.31 córdobas por hectárea respectivamente, pero la mayor relación beneficio-costo se logro con los tratamientos Alachlor, Alachlor + Metribuzin, testigo mecánico y Alachlor + Linuron, con 2.31, 2.30, 2.23 y 2.21 respectivamente.

The value of books : the fantastic flying books of Mr. Morris Lessmore and the social hieroglyphic of reading

The late eighteenth century witnessed the emergence of new technologies of subjectivity and of the literary. Most obviously, “the novel as a literary form appeared to embody and turn into an object the experience of life itself” (Park), and the novel genre came to both reflect and shape notions of interiority and subjectivity. In this same period, “A shift was taking place in the way people felt and thought about children and the accoutrements of childhood, including books and toys, were implicated in this change” (Lewis). In seeking to understand the relationships between media (e.g. books and toys), genres (e.g. novels and picture books), and modes of subjectivity, Marx’s influential theory of commodity fetishism, whereby “a definite social relation between men, that assumes, in their eyes, the fantastic form of a relation between things”, has served as a productive tool of analysis. The extent to which Marx’s account of commodity fetishism continues to be of use becomes clear when the corollaries between the late eighteenth-century emergence of novels and pictures books as technologies of subjectivity and the early twenty-first century emergence of e-readers and digital texts as technologies of subjectivity are considered. This paper considers the literary technology of Apple’s iPad (first launched in 2010) as a commodity fetish, and the circulation of “apps” as texts made available by and offered as justifications for, this fetish object. The iPad is both book and toy, but is never “only” either; it is arguably a new technology of subjectivity which incorporates but also destabilises categories of reading and playing such as those made familiar by earlier technologies of literature and the self. The particular focus of this paper is on the multimodal versions (app, film, and picture book) of The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore, which are understood here as a narrativisation of commodity fetishism, subjectivity, and the act of reading itself.

Narrowband Detection of Acoustic Source in Shallow Ocean using Vector Sensor Array

The problem of narrowband CFAR (constant false alarm rate) detection of an acoustic source at an unknown location in a range-independent shallow ocean is considered. If a target is present, the received signal vector at an array of N sensors belongs to an M-dimensional subspace if N exceeds the number of propagating modes M in the ocean. A subspace detection method which utilises the knowledge of the signal subspace to enhance the detector performance is presented in thisMpaper. It is shown that, for a given number of sensors N, the performance of a detector using a vector sensor array is significantly better than that using a scalar sensor array. If a target is detected, the detector using a vector sensor array also provides a concurrent coarse estimate of the bearing of the target.
