Yet when I snowboarded down from the summit before the lifts started running, and the fresh, wind-blown snow took on a dry powdery quality, it was a beautiful ride – made more so by my woozy sleep-deprived state.
Instead, the eau de parfum has a powdery quality, with musky hints of clove and star anise, evoking burning incense — a signature note in the olfactory repertory of Aedes de Venustas, whose house line includes a scented room spray and candles.
Chalky means the product is powdery and of low quality or hard to blend.
No powdery rubbish here – these are flakes of proper, quality chocolate that you simply dissolve into the frothy milk of your choice.
"We are focusing on developing wine, juice, table and raisin grapes with three attributes: fruit quality, cold hardiness and resistance to powdery mildew, a fungal pathogen that is costly to control," said Reisch.
Niseko became famous about a decade ago, especially in Australia, for the quality and consistency of its light, powdery snow, the result of Siberian winds interacting with moisture from the Sea of Japan.
Geneticists identify molecular markers for important traits in grapes, from resistance to diseases like powdery mildew to boosting low-temperature tolerance and fruit quality.
Therefore, pyramiding desirable traits to develop new high-quality melon cultivars that are resistant to powdery mildew should be possible.
Which actually seems to suggest to me that Fritsch is doing her job: the stock-in-trade of the venerable Düsseldorf-based artist is what Tate curator Jessica Morgan has called the "unnerving, apparitional quality" of Fritsch's sculptures which, with their matt, powdery surfaces seem to have arrived from quite another world.
This consensus melon map with twelve linkage groups also integrated QTL information from eighteen mapping studies in which QTLs responsible for the resistance of various diseases, including powdery mildew, as well as fruit shape and size, rind color, fruit quality, and fruit yield (Diaz et al. 2011).
In this study, the role of growth light duration, irradiance, a combination of both (daily light integral) and light spectral quality (blue or red) on the efficacy of UV treatments against powdery mildew caused by Podosphaera xanthii and the growth performance of cucumber plants was studied in growth chambers.
