Propagation of Theobroma cacao by Rooted Cuttings in Mini-Tunnels by Lucía Melissa Vásquez Zamora, Sofía Rengifo-Del Aguila, Juan Carlos Guerrero Abad, Geomar Vallejos Torres, Sixto Alfredo Imán Correa, Elías Torres Flores, Francisco Mesén Sequeira, Mike Anderson Corazon Guivin

“…Cuttings 5 to 7 cm long were collected from the middle area of cacao tree crowns and treated with doses of 0, 1000, 2000, and 3000 ppm of IBA; then they were placed in Jiffy© pellets and set to root in plastic-covered mini-tunnels with fog irrigation. The results indicate that treatments with 0 and 1000 ppm of IBA produced the highest values in survival (100%, both treatments) and rooting percentage (87.7 and 90.0%, respectively) as well as number and length of roots (4.3 roots-4.21 cm in length and 4.5 roots-5.32 cm in length, respectively); likewise, cuttings treated with 0 ppm rooted after 24–40 days, followed by doses of 1000 ppm (24–46 days). …”

Natural Background Level and Contamination of Shallow Groundwater Salinity in Various Aquifers in a Coastal Urbanized Area, South China by Pan Bi, Dongya Han, Chunyan Liu, Liquan Xiao, Heqiu Wu, Meng Zhang

“…Moreover, the wastewater leakage from sewer systems was one of the main pathways for groundwater salinity contamination in urbanized areas, because the proportion of groundwater salinity contamination in urbanized areas formed in 1988–1998 was more than 1.5 times that in urbanized areas formed in 1998–2006 regardless of groundwater units. Besides, sewage irrigation and leakage of landfill leachate were also important sources for groundwater salinity contamination in the PRD.…”
