Jerusalem artichoke stems can grow to 3 m or more in height, though most clones are shorter. Dwarf clones have been selected (Zubr and Pedersen, 1993). The stems are stout and heavily trichomed when young. Initially the stems are quite succulent but become woody over time. Branches vary in number and position on the main stems. The stems arise directly from the seed tuber, with branches forming at nodes on the stem. Basal branches may form underground and at the soil surface appear to be stems hence, estimates of stem number per plant are variable.

Effects of DD%, molecular weight, and concentration of chitosan on floral production of Dendrobium orchid were also studied (Limpanavech et al. 2008). Chitosan 0-80 (45 kDa, >90% DD) at concentrations of 1, 10, 50, and 100 ppm was found to be the most effective on inducing early flowering and increasing in inflorescence number and flowers per inflorescence compared to the control. Treatment of chitosan 0-80 at 10 ppm increased inflorescence number per plant from 5.50 (control) to 7.75 (treatment) and flowers per inflorescence from 5.66 to 6.89. 

This effect on pod set translates into an increase in yield per plant despite a commensurate decline in seed size, which was observed at all positions on BA treated racemes (Fig. 2). When various adenine cytokinin analogs were used to treat three main stem racemes of soybean plants, a range of pod set effects was obtained [9]. In all cases, stimulation of pod set on treated nodes did not cause an associated decline in pod number on untreated portions of the plant (Fig. 3a). Therefore, variation in pod number per plant was directly associated with variation in the... 

The increased cumulative growth of 30 uM DCPTA-treated roots and stems was due to increased secondary root development and to increased axillary branch development (Table VII). Flower cluster (truss) number per plant paralleled secondary branch development (Table VII). Truss development in 30 uM DCPTA-treated plants was doubled when compared with controls (Table VII).

The list can be extended for each and every situation where plant protection products are used. There is an ongoing debate as to how to treat three-dimensional crops such as trees. The first approach is to estimate the number of trees in a given area, e.g., number per hectare. Having estimated the number of trees, the required water volume, e.g., 1000 L ha can be divided by the number of trees to ascertain the quantity of solution that each tree should receive. Knowing the calibrated output of the equipment, the required time to spray the required output per tree can be calculated. The disadvantage of this method is that each tree, whatever the size, receives the same amount of solution. 

GA3 caused elongation in sago pondweed, even in the presence of solstitialin (Table IV). At 1 to 50 ppm, solstitialin reduced the number of leaves per plant even in the presence of GA3. At 50 ppm solstitialin caused a reduction in the number of daughter plants, and seemed to have slightly inhibited root production as well. 

The number of seeds per plant is large, and the seeds are small. The high seed protein content results in high yields of recombinant proteins. 

Although the number of plant samples is not equally divided per species, due to availability it was nevertheless noted that... 

Seed yield in cucurbits is seldom investigated because commercial production of the carbohydrate-rich fruit is the major concern. Wide variations in sizes and weights of seeds, numbers of seeds per fruit and even numbers of fruits per plant seems the rule, particularly in wild plants and even within one species (7). Estimations from limited observations of C. foetidissima, Z. digitata and C. palmata growing wild in desert areas indicate theoretical yields Trom ot) to 3,000 lb of seeds per acre ( ,9h C. foetidissima cultivated in northwestern Texas yields approximately 700 to 2,000 lb of seeds per acre (10). C. pepo (pumpkin) produces up to 1,200 lb per acre and an improved seed-coatless line yields from 1,200 to 1,400 lb of seed per acre ( , 11). These yields are comparable to yields of oilseeds of commerce. 

A similar trend was seen in the nodule weight per plant and leghemoglobin content per nodule was not affected. This indicated that the effect of the ozone treatment was to reduce nodule number the reduction of nodule number caused a concurrent reduction in total nodule weight and leghemoglobin per plant. 

QAI will check the particulate of the manufacturing area using laser particulate counter, per plant SOP (provide number). 

UNODC has also started to conduct yield surveys in some countries, measuring the yield of test fields, and to develop methodologies to extrapolate the yields from proxy variables, such as the volume of poppy capsules or the number of plants per plot. This approach is used in South-East Asia as well as in Afghanistan. All of this is intended to improve yield estimates, aiming at information that is independent from farmers reports. The accuracy of the calculated yields depends on a number of factors, including the number of sites investigated. In the case of Afghanistan the confidence interval for the mean yield results in the 2006 survey was, for instance, +/- 3% of the mean value (tt= 0.1). 

The technical capacity of a plant is determined by the capacity of individual production lines/equipments and the number of parallel installations. Theoretically, a combination of production lines with different capacities at a plant allows for a wide range of choices in capacity selection. However, in practice operating only one production line size per plant is preferred because it is easier to switch products between lines if these are of similar size. While the capacity per production line can theoretically be chosen on a continuous scale often standard equipment sizes available from vendors lead to a discrete set of choices.
