Title : Diversification agricole en terres de canne à sucre. Bilan des travaux, 1968-1973
Year of publication : 1973
Keywords : DIVERSIFICATION; SUGARCANE; POTATOES; GROUNDNUTS; MAIZE; GINGER; SOYABEANS; TOMATOES; MSIRI STAFF; MAURITIUS;
Citation : Antoine, R.; Diversification agricole en terres de canne à sucre. Bilan des travaux, 1968-1973; 1973
Abstract : The research conducted during the period 1968-73 on crop diversification on sugar cane lands is described in full. The objective of the research is defined as the maximum utilization of cane cycles without reducing yield of sugar per unit area. The crop plants considered are potato, groundnut, maize, ginger, soya and other legumes, and tomato.

Title : Une méthode de lutte contre le flétrissement bactérien et les anguillules de la tomate
Year of publication : 1973
Keywords : TOMATOES; WILTS; NEMATODA; PSEUDOMONAS SOLANACEARUM; MELOIDOGYNE; CONTROL; GRAFTING; BACTERIAL DISEASES; DISEASES; PESTS; MSIRI STAFF; PATH; MAURITIUS;
Citation : Felix, S.; Une méthode de lutte contre le flétrissement bactérien et les anguillules de la tomate; 1973
Abstract : Two major tomato diseases widespread in Mauritius : bacterial wilt (Pseudomonas solanacearum) and nematodes (Meloidogyne sp.) can be controlled by grafting suitable tomato scions on Solanum torvum, a highly resistant rootstock, using the tongued graft method. Grafted plants have also shown resistance to conditions of high humidity.

Title : Physiology of flowering Saccharum. 1. Daylength control of floral initiation and development in S. spontaneum L.
Year of publication : 1973
Keywords : SUGARCANE; FLOWERING; DEVELOPMENT; PHYSIOLOGY; MSIRI STAFF; PB; MAURITIUS;
Citation : Julien, M. H. R.; Physiology of flowering Saccharum. 1. Daylength control of floral initiation and development in S. spontaneum L.; 1973
Abstract : Flowering in two clones of Saccharum spontaneum L. is controlled by photoperiod. The earliest stages of development, 'induction' and 'initiation of the inflorescence axis primordium' (IAP) were optimally promoted under intermediate days of 12 h 30 min., while the subsequent stage 'initiation of inflorescence branch primordia' (IBP) was inhibited by days longer than 13 h. The following stage 'initiation of spikelet primordia' (ISP) showed a quantitatively intermediate response with an optimum photoperiod of 9 h to 11 h. The elongation of the differentiated inflorescence was found to be only slightly sensitive to photoperiods at stages following induction resulted in the IAP and IBP stages, reversion to the vegetative condition commonly occurred.

Citation : Pillay, A. R.; Mamet, J. R.; Adaptability of commercially grown potato varieties tested in different locations and seasons (1969 and 1970); 1973
Abstract : Statistical methods were used to assess yield performance of commercially grown potato varieties. Up-to-date was found to be the most desirable variety with general adaptability. Results obtained were also compared with data from commercial plantations in 73 locations.

Title : Aphid vectors of potato viruses in Mauritius
Year of publication : 1973
Keywords : POTATOES; PLANT VIRUSES; VECTORS; DISEASE VECTORS; DISEASE TRANSMISSION; MSIRI STAFF; ENTO; MAURITIUS;
Citation : Williams, J. R.; Dove, H.; Aphid vectors of potato viruses in Mauritius; 1973
Abstract : Aphids in Mauritius seldom cause direct injury of any importance to potato crops but as potential vectors of virus diseases they are significant factors in the context of the recently implemented scheme for local production of seed potatoes. A survey revealed four species occurring on potatoes,namely Myzus persicae, Macrosiphum euphorbiae, Aulacorthum sp. prob. solani, and Aphis gossypii. The known abilities of these species as disease vectors elsewhere, and a local experiment to obtain data on their incidence in different climatic areas, indicated that the potentially important species are M. persicae and M. euphorbiae. Both species are apparently least numerous on potatoes in upland localities, particularly early in the crop season.
