Title : Further evidence of population shift in the gumming disease pathogen in Mauritius
Year of publication : 1974
Keywords : SUGARCANE; GUMMOSIS; XANTHOMONAS VASCULORUM; EPIDEMIOLOGY; DISEASES; BACTERIAL DISEASES; MSIRI STAFF; PATH; MAURITIUS;
Citation : Ricaud, C.; Sullivan, S.; Further evidence of population shift in the gumming disease pathogen in Mauritius; 1974
Abstract : After an epidemic of gumming disease in Mauritius in 1964, due to the appearance of a new strain of the bacterium, several new varieties which had been tested and found resistant, were brought under cultivation to replace highly susceptible ones which had

Title : La production des semences saines de pomme de terre à Maurice
Year of publication : 1973
Keywords : POTATOES; SEEDS; SEED CERTIFICATION; DISEASES; MSIRI STAFF; PATH; MAURITIUS;
Citation : Ricaud, C.; Felix, S.; La production des semences saines de pomme de terre à Maurice; 1973
Abstract : Increasing cost of imported seed potatoes has necessitated the launching of a scheme for seed production in Mauritius. An analysis of disease factors influencing seed production is presented. Results obtained in trials as well as in pilot plantations have shown that local production of seed can be successful. Although cool-stored seeds gave a larger proportion of smaller tubers than imported seed, the yield of commercial-grade tubers was not inferior.

Title : Residual effect of calcium silicate applied to sugar cane soils
Year of publication : 1974
Keywords : SUGARCANE; SOIL AMENDMENTS; CALCIUM SILICATE; PLANT NUTRITION; SOILS; MSIRI STAFF; CHEM; MAURITIUS;
Citation : Ross, L.; Nababsing, P.; Wong You Cheong, Y.; Residual effect of calcium silicate applied to sugar cane soils; 1974
Abstract : Calcium silicate applied to low silicon soils at planting gave annual cane yield increases over a 6 year cycle. The higher level of 14,2 tons per hectare was uneconomical over that period but the lower level of 7,1 t per hectare proved to be generally profitable. A net return from the application of calcium silicate could be expected if the total silica level in the third leaf lamina wass below 1,4 SiO(2 percent dm or if the acid-soluble soil Si was below 77 ppm Si. Although the amount of applied Si not recovered in the plant or int he soil was high, it would appear from results of soil and leaf analysis that futher yield increases could be expected from the silicate already applied.

Title : Notes on cane starch and its determination
Year of publication : 1974
Keywords : SUGARCANE; STARCH; CHEMICO-PHYSICAL PROPERTIES; CLARIFICATION; PROCESSING; MSIRI STAFF; ST; MAURITIUS;
Citation : Vignes, E. C.; Notes on cane starch and its determination; 1974
Abstract : Cane starch has been isolated and some of its physico-chemical properties compared with those of other common starches. Due to many variable factors, it is believed that figures published in the literature for starch content of sugars are not accurate, and the search for a better method of analysis is advocated.

Citation : Vignes, E. C.; Some notes on the determination of water in molasses by the Karl-Fischer method; 1974
Abstract : A technique for the determination of moisture in molasses using an automatic titration is described. Precision and reproducibility were statistically examined and found satisfactory. The method is considered rapid and accurate enough for estimating water in molasses.

Title : The effect of steam treatment on cane bagasse in relation to its digestibility and furfural production
Year of publication : 1974
Keywords : SUGARCANE; BAGASSE; ANIMAL NUTRITION; SUGARCANE BYPRODUCTS; MSIRI STAFF; CHEM; ST; MAURITIUS;
Citation : Wong You Cheong, Y.; d'Espaignet, J. T.; Deville, J.; Sansoucy, R.; Preston, T. R.; The effect of steam treatment on cane bagasse in relation to its digestibility and furfural production; 1974
Abstract : The digestibility of cane bagasse was increased by steam treatment. High pressures and short durations of treatment were sufficient to yield products with digestibilities as high as that of Setaria grass (Setaria sphacelata). The steam pressure required was about 14 to 15 bar for 10 minutes. Total acids and furfural production increased with steam pressure and duration of treatment, with yields of furfural higher than 3 per cent of dry bagasse being obtained. The digestibility of the remaining water-insoluble fraction after steam treatment was not increased.
