Nitrate Content, Soluble Solids Content, and Yield of Table Beet as Affected by Cultivar, Sowing Date and Nitrogen Supply

Growth and nitrogen content of sunflower as affected by the rate and form of nitrogen

Yield and chemical composition of 'Piarom' Date-Palm Phoenix dactylifera as affected by nitrogen and phosphorus levels

Extraordinary importance of Date-Palm, Phoenix dactylifera especially ‘Piarom’ variety and also undeniable effect of nitrogen and phosphorus on yield and quality of this product, caused this research to be accomplished. The research was performed during two years on 72 (4*3*3*2=72 trees) fruitful, 12 years old trees in Hormozgan province. Treatments were consisted of four levels of nitrogen (0,...

Glycolate oxidase content of microbodies as affected by nitrate.

Glycolate oxidase is loosely held by microbodies obtained from etiolated barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) leaves depleted of nitrate. Defined centrifugation conditions cause the complete detachment of the enzyme from the microbodies. Addition of nitrate to these plants brings about a greater retention of glycolate oxidase by the microbodies. Synthesis of a nitrate-induced protein seems to be respons...

Nitrate Reductase Activity in Corn Seedlings as Affected by Light and Nitrate Content of Nutrient Media.

The requirement of light for the reduction of nitrate by higher plants has been under investigation for sonme time. Burstronm (2) obtained evidence that wheat leaves would reduce nitrate in the light but not in the dark. He concluded that nitrate reduction was directly linked to a photochemical reaction, or that it occurred concomitantly with the fixation and reduction of carbon dioxide. In con...
