Both variables differed with the stage of maturity for all cultivars. Ethylene concentration ranged from 0 to 0.244 μl l−1, and CO2 concentration ranged from 6.05 to 206.5 mg l−1. Concentration of both gases increased in ripening fruits of ‘Camelot’ and ‘King Arthur’. In ‘Tabasco’ fruits grown under greenhouse conditions, CO2 concentration increased once fruits started developing red coloration. However, this peak was absent in ‘Tabasco’ fruits grown in the field.

Hybrid tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus×O. niloticus L. were grown in tanks associated with biofilters (sand beds) in which tomatoes Lycopersicon esculentum were grown. The effect of four biofilter volume (BFV)/fish rearing tank volume ratios (0.67/1, 1.00/1, 1.5011, 2.25/1) on water use efficiency was evaluated.‘Laura’(first experiment) or‘Kewalo’tomatoes were grown 4/m2 in biofilters of four different sizes and surface‐irrigated 8 times daily with water from the associated fish tanks. Daily water consumption increased with BFV/tank ratios and with time. Fish production rates increased with biofilter volume in the first experiment, but were not significantly different in the second experiment. Total tomato fruit yield per plot increased from 13.7 to 31.7 kg (Experiment 1) and from 19.9 to 33.1 kg (Experiment 2) with increasing BFV/tank ratio. For fish plus fruit, total energy production increased from 4,950 to 8,963 kcal/ plot and from 4,804 to 7,424 kcal/plot in Experiments 1 and 2, respectively, and protein production increased from 536 to 794 and from 352 to 483 g/plot in Experiments 1 and 2, respectively, with increasing BFV/ tank ratio.

Eleven methods of calculating heat units were chosen for comparison based on their performance as described in the literature. The most reliable method was defined as the one with the smallest coefficient of variation (CV). CVs were calculated for each method over both seasons and locations, for each season over all locations, each location over all seasons, and for each season at each location. All heat unit summation methods had smaller coefficients of variation (CV) than the standard method of counting days from planting to first harvest. Heat unit summation methods improved harvest date prediction accuracy compared with the counting day method for tomatoes in the South Atlantic Coast (SAC) region. Prediction using location/season specific models were less variable than the models over all seasons and locations. Incorporating daylength improved model prediction accuracy when applied over all locations and seasons, all locations by season, and all seasons by location. Based on the results of this study, the heat unit summation technique recommended for this region (where the location and season specific models are not available) is the reduced ceiling method multiplied by daylength.}, number={3-4}, journal={AGRICULTURAL AND FOREST METEOROLOGY}, author={Perry, KB and Wu, YH and Sanders, DC and Garrett, JT and Decoteau, DR and Nagata, RT and Dufault, RJ and Batal, KD and Granberry, DM and Mclaurin, WJ}, year={1997}, month={Apr}, pages={249–254} } @article{hanzlik_kennedy_sanders_monks_1997, title={Response of European corn borer (Ostrinia nubilalis, Hubner) to two potato hybrids selected for resistance to Colorado potato beetle}, volume={16}, ISSN={["0261-2194"]}, DOI={10.1016/S0261-2194(97)00009-4}, abstractNote={The response of the European corn borer, Ostrinia nubilalis (Hubner) to K411-2 and NYL 235-4, fifth- and sixth-generation potato accessions derived from crosses between Solanum tuberosum L. and S. berthaultii (Hawkes) and selected for resistance to Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata, Say) and potato leafhopper (Empoasca fabae, Harris), was measured in field and greenhouse experiments.
