Inventor: MARTINEZ PENA ALEJANDRO
IPC: A01N63/12
Filed: 2001-11-08
Granted: 2013-12-31
Abstract: L'invention concerne une nouvelle formulation pesticide, biostimulante et à effets fongicides, qui réunit l'action de biostimulation du chitosane et l'action de régulation biologique des parasites dans des cultures agricoles et forestières et qui est due à des insectes phytopathogènes de nématodes entomopathogènes des familles Steinernematidae et Hererohabditidae. Il existe une action synergique entre le biostimulant et le pesticide biologique, due à l'action de bactéries symbiotiques des genres Xenorhabdus et Photorhabdus porteuses des nématodes desdites familles. L'action mentionnée ci-dessus est stimulée du point de vue synergique par l'effet biostimulant du chitosane sur les plantes, qui favorise le développement radiculaire et son degré de lignification et provoque l'élicitation de gènes producteurs de phytoalexines comme mécanisme défensif.

Filed: 2003-08-25
Granted: 2006-01-10
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a system and method for reducing crosstalk caused by compensation schemes used in a connector to reduce crosstalk. The system provides for balancing crosstalk in an electrical connector having three or more pairs of conductors, wherein two pairs of conductors form a pair combination. The connector also has at least one compensating coupling device connected between conductor pairs of a first pair combination. The compensating coupling device disturbs the crosstalk balance of a second pair combination. The system for balancing crosstalk in the second pair combination includes a corrective coupling device that is connected between the conductor pairs of the second pair combination. In addition, compensating coupling devices in the second pair combination can be adjusted to counteract any crosstalk disturbances caused by the corrective coupling device.
