Abstract

Stem bleeding of coconut caused by Thielaviopsis paradoxa (de Seynes) Von Hohnel is an important disease affecting coconut in many countries (Menon and Pandalai, 1958; Ohler, 1966, Nambiar and Sastry, 1988). lsolation of the pathogen from diseased tissues on different agar based media has given inconsistent results (Anon., 1976; Anon., 1986), None of the selective media reported for certain related fungi viz., T. basicola (Berk and Br.) Ferr. (David, 1978;Tsao and Bricker, 1966) and Ceratocystis wagnerii Goheen and Cobb (Hicks et al., 1980) proved useful for the isolation of T. paradoxa Since, standardization of an isolation method is a basic necessity for any study on plant pathogens, an attempt was made to improve upon existing methods.

Abstract

Uptake, translocation and persistance of carbendazim in coconut in relation to control of stem bleeding caused by Thielaviopsis paradoxa was studied. The fungicide when applied through a single root @ 10g Bavistin/palm, was detected up to 2m height in the trunk of treged palms on feeding side, whereas no fungicide was detected from remaining three sides. In the former case, the furigicide accumulated in sufficient concentrations to arrest the internal decay for six months. The residues detected in nut water from nuts of different maturity from treated adult palms (20 ‑ 25 yrs.) were within safe limits.

Abstract

Digital Elevation Model (DEM) can be generated using several techniques such as photogrammetric technique, interferometry, Lidar, etc. In photogrammetric technique, a DEM generation using stereo images, accuracy of generated DEM is also dependent on interpolation techniques. The process of interpolation is conducted to generate DEM as a continuous data from the point map that contained height information as a discrete data. In this research, point map was extracted from Cartosat-1 stereo image and from geodetic single frequency GPS in differential mode. Different interpolation techniques were applied on these data sets with different combination within these data sets. In this study, analysis of DEM interpolation was conducted with deterministic interpolators such as inverse distance weighted (IDW), global polynomial, local polynomial, and radial basis functions (RBF); and probabilistic interpolators such as simple kriging, ordinary kriging, universal kriging, indicator kriging, probabilistic kriging, disjunctive kriging, and cokriging. The accuracy of generated DEMs through different interpolation techniques were evaluated with ground point data collected from geodetic single frequency GPS in differential mode. Based on the analysis, the range error of DEMs generated was between 1.29 m to 2.96 m. Interpolation method with the least error was ordinary kriging using point map data and GPS points, while the highest error was obtained from global polynomial method.
