The increased size and use of machinery introduced soil problems, such as compaction, and required greater management skill.
Explosives are now used in such diverse fields as welding, bulk cladding of plates, forming, sizing, powder compaction, hardening, and cutting.
The system is expensive of time and energy but produces fine soil aggregates to planting depth with serious risks of compaction deeper in the profile.
With continuing subduction the pelagic sediments might have been dragged beneath the accretionary prism leading to compaction and expulsion of large amounts of pore fluids.
Many structural events are associated with compaction, including blastomere polarisation, blastomere flattening and gap junction formation.
This is really not surprising, given that the compaction method pays no attention to the probabilities that play a crucial role in evaluation.
However, minimum or zero tillage would not be suitable for soils that are susceptible to compaction, and for highly degraded soils.
Here we examine the expression profile of uvomorulin at the cellular level, in oocytes and embryos up to and during compaction.
