Thesis (MSc)--Stellenbosch University, 2002.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The cultivation of table grapes in the warmer areas of South Africa, indeed worldwide, is complicated by rest breaking problems in spring due to delayed budbreak. In order to overcome these problems rest breaking agents, mainly hydrogen cyanamide, are applied. However, instead of alleviating the problem, additional problems such as uneven budbreak and reduced production are often induced. This study was initiated to further understand the physiological processes occurring during budbreak and how the application of hydrogen

Compared to underdeveloped shoots, normal shoots had a larger total leaf area, due to the higher occurrence of secondary shoots as well as larger leaves

Mestrado Vinifera EuroMaster - Instituto Superior de Agronomia<br>A study to compare the effects of hedging and curling the shoot tips (rolling) on the last wire of the trellising system was carried out in Saint Emilion (France) on Merlot grapevines in 2011. Vines were hedged or curled when shoots were 30 – 40 cm longer than the highest wire. The effects of the two canopy management strategies on vine performance, mainly vegetative growth, disease occurrence, phenology, water status, yield components and berry composition were compared. Curled, not hedged vines presented longer main shoo

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between English language proficiency scores as measured by the ACCESS for ELLs and achievement and growth scores on the reading subtest of the Measures of Academic Progress (MAP). The sample consisted of 2,006 3rd-5th grade English language learners (ELLs) from a large Midwestern school district. Results confirmed that an increase in English proficiency is associated with higher reading achievement scores. The unique variance explained by each of the domain scores (reading, writing, speaking, and listening) on the ACCESS for ELLs sup

Abstract:
Growth of terrace graded virtual substrates, pioneered by Capewell (2002), has been conducted utilising solid-source molecular beam epitaxy (SS-MBE) to produce structures of higher germanium composition (up to pure germanium) and greater thickness (up to 20 ?m) than previously investigated. Terrace grading offers a number of advantages over more conventional grading techniques which include the reduction of surface threading dislocation density, reduction of surface roughness and the possibility of the complete elimination of threading dislocation pile-up. The closely spaced pile-up of threadi

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Materials Science and Engineering, 1998.<br>Includes bibliographical references (leaves 137-147).<br>Silicon germanium layers on silicon substrates (SiGe/Si) are useful for a variety of microelectronics applications. The most successful technique for growing low defect density relaxed SiGe/Si layers is relaxed compositional grading. However, with increasing Ge content in the graded SiGe layers, the following materials concerns need to be addressed-{i) a high surface roughness, (ii) the formation of dislocation pile-ups, (iii) an i

Abstract:
Grafts currently used for the repair of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures integrate poorly with bone due to a significant mismatch in properties between graft and bone. Specifically, conventional grafts (e.g., hamstring tendon) are unable to recapitulate intricate gradients in mechano-chemical properties and extracellular matrix (ECM) architecture found at natural bone-ligament (B-L) transitions, and thus result in stress-concentrations at the graft-bone interface leading to graft failure. In contrast, tissue-engineered scaffolds possessing gradients in properties can potentially guide
