Seed certification, crop, inspection, eradication of inoculums and / or insect, vectors, and quarantine measures are some of the, means of preventing the spread for pathogens., ERADICATION : The process of reducing,, inactivating, eliminating or destroying inoculums at, the source, either from a region or from an, individual plant in which it is already established., PROTECTION : Principles of avoidance, exclusion, and eradication may not be sufficient to prevent, the contact of host with pathogen, especially fast, spreading infectious pathogen, brought by wind, from neighboring fields. Measures are necessary to, protect host plants from invading inoculums.

Veneering : veneer is a thin slice of wood; usually we prepares a large surface by joining them in a, specific pattern that is attractive., Veneer matching : an arrangement of veneers strip of similar or varying grain patterns within a panel., Book Matching – Consecutive leaves of veneer are flipped open facing each other like pages in a, book, creating a mirror image of the previous leaf., Slip matching – Consecutive leaves of veneer are slid or, “slipped” across each other and joined side by side, creating a, repeating grain pattern across the panel., Plant matching – various piece of logs arranged in a, deliberately mismatch manner., Box matching, Random matching – Components are arranged in the order, they come from a given stack of veneer that they may have come from., 21. Full-cell process or Bethell process, is a method of impregnating wood with, preservatives. It involves sealing the wood in a pressure chamber and, applying a vacuum in order to remove air and moisture from the wood, cells. The wood is then pressure-treated with preservatives in order to, impregnate the full wood cell (that is, the cell wall as well as the lumen,, or interior) with substances that impart resistance to decay, fire, insects, and, wood-boring marine animals., 24.

Glory lily (Gloriosa superba) is a poisonous plant, due to presence of toxic alkaloid like colchicine. The toxicity, of this plant is enough to cause human and animal fatalities if ingested.

Gymnema sylvestre is a woody climbing shrub of tropical forests. It has been a traditional remedy, for various ailments, including diabetes, malaria and snakebites., 84., , 94. Oil Palm (Elaeis guineensis) originated in the tropical rain forest region of West Africa. On an, average, 25-30 tonnes of oil palm fruit per hectare can be harvested while the oil content after, processing of the fruit is 5 tonnes per hectare. The government has been encouraging farmers to, grow oil palm as the yields are more than other oil crops; the average life of the plant is 25 years, , © Hornbill classes, , 07223970423, , [email protected], , 84
