How can an albino tree survive?

Plants due to genetic mutations can also be albinos. True, if albino animals can exist more or less successfully, plants without the green pigment chlorophyll are incapable of photosynthesis and, as a rule, are not viable. The exceptions are those that can parasitize other plants. For example, an albino sequoia with white needles can attach its roots to the root system of healthy trees.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

Huawei 40W 12000mAh Power Bank 04.04.2019

Huawei has introduced a 40-watt portable battery that may be of interest to potential buyers of the older model with support for 40 W wired charging (proprietary SuperCharge 2.0 technology).

The battery capacity of Huawei 12000 40W SuperCharge Power Bank, as the name implies, is 12000 mAh. In this case, lithium-cobalt cells are used - the same ones provide power to the Huawei P30 Pro smartphone.

Despite a fairly capacious battery, the power bank weighs relatively little - 227 g. In addition to the USB-C connector, which supports fast charging in both directions at a power of 40 W, the Huawei 12000 40W SuperCharge Power Bank also has a full-sized USB connector. The button on the case allows you to check the charge level, which is displayed by the LEDs.

According to the manufacturer, the Huawei 12000 40W SuperCharge Power Bank will allow you to charge the battery of the Huawei P30 Pro smartphone with a capacity of 4200 mAh from 0 to 70% in just 30 minutes, while with a conventional 10-watt charge, only 26% of the charge can be replenished in the same time. Thanks to the 40W charging power in both directions, the battery itself can be fully charged from the mains in 2 hours and 14 minutes. For comparison, when charging with a current of 10 W, it would take 5 hours and 25 minutes.

External battery Huawei 12000 40W SuperCharge Power Bank will be available in blue and white colors. The start date of sales has not yet been announced. As for the price, it is rather big - 100 euros. By comparison, earlier this year, Xiaomi released a 3mAh PowerBank 20 model with 000W dual-sided fast charging for just $45.
