TL;DR: Soil application of biocontrol agents in combination with chitin induced a significant increase in the activities of peroxidase (PO), polyphenol oxidase (PPO), phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), chit inase and b-1,3-glucanase in coconut palms infected with Ganoderma lucidum.
Abstract: The effect of soil application of biocontrol agents (Pseudomonas fluorescens, Trichoderma viride and T. harzianum) in combination with chitin on induction of phenolics and defense enzymes in coconut roots infected with Ganoderma lucidum, the causal agent of Ganoderma disease, was investigated. Soil application of these biocontrol formulations in combination with chitin induced a significant increase in the activities of peroxidase (PO), polyphenol oxidase (PPO), phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), chitinase and b-1,3-glucanase in the G. lucidum infected palms. Activities of both PAL and PO reached maximum levels within 3 d while the activity of PPO reached the maximum level 6 d after application of a mixture of P. fluorescens, T. viride and chitin. Isozyme analysis revealed that unique PO3 and PPO2 isozymes were induced in coconut palms treated with P. fluorescens + T. viride + chitin. Accumulation of phenolics was recorded 3 d after treatment and reached maximum levels 9 d after treatment application. Activity of chitinase was significantly increased from the third day after treatment imposition and continued to increase up to 9 to 12 d in all treatments. Chitinase isozyme analysis revealed that a unique Chit3 isoform was induced in coconut roots treated with P. fluorescens + T. viride + chitin. The b-1,3-glucanase activity was maximum 9 d after treatment application. The mechanisms by which P. fluorescens + T. viride + chitin reduced the incidence of Ganoderma disease in coconut may be related to its ability to induce defense mechanisms in coconut palms.

TL;DR: In this article, a CEED problem is formulated as a multi-objective problem by considering both economy and emission simultaneously and converted into single objective function using price penalty factor.
Abstract: This article presents a simplified mathematical approach to find the optimal solution for combined economic and emission dispatch (CEED) problem. In this article, a CEED problem is formulated as a multi-objective problem by considering both economy and emission simultaneously. The bi-objective CEED problem is converted into single objective function using price penalty factor. A dynamic programming (DP) technique is presented in a simple form to solve the CEED problem. The validity of the proposed approach is tested on two sample systems and the results are compared to those reported in the recent literature. The study results have shown that the approach developed is efficient and suitable for real time applications.
