Impacts of Rate of Hexazinone Application on Survival and Growth of the Loblolly
نویسنده
چکیده
Hexazinone C3-cyc1ohexyl-6-(dimethylamino)-l-methyl-1,3,5-triazine-2,4(1~, 3H)-dionel in Z-cc pellets (10% active ingredient) was applied at rates of 0, 2, 4, and 8 pounds of active ingredient per acre for site preparation on clay soil in a randomized experiment in May 1980. Loblolly pine seedlings planted to the site in January 1981 were measured for diameter 3 inches above the ground, height, and survival in January 1981, December 1981 and 1982, and November 1983. Four and 8 pounds of active ingredient per acre resulted in significant growth of the treated seedlings over that of the untreated seedlings for each of the 3 years of this study. Growth responses for seedlings treated with 4 and 8 pounds of hexazinone were not significantly different. Diameter growth of the seedlings responded to the treatments to a greater degree than did height growth, although both were significant at the p=O.O5 level by analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Duncan's multiple range test. Seedlings in the Z-pound treatment failed to grow significantly more than the untreated plants during the 3 years of study. Survival was not significantly affected by any of the treatments. Results of this study suggest that 2 pounds of hexazinone per acre is too low a rate for significant growth benefits to accrue from site preparation with the grid application method on clay soil.

All organisms are probably exposed to different types of electromagnetic fields (EMFs). This study is an attempt to evaluate the effect of extremely low-frequency EMFs (50 Hz) on some growth parameters and survival rate of common carp fingerling. The fry (n = 120, averaged 16.76 ± 0.88 g in initial weight) was exposed to ELF-EMF at four intensities of 0.1, 0.5, 1 and 2 mT only once for 2 h and ...

Effects of different dietary levels of AFB1 on survival rate and growth factors of Beluga (Huso huso)
In the present study, the impacts of various concentrations of Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) on Beluga, Huso huso, under controlled conditions were investigated. Belugas (120±10g) were fed on diets containing 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100 ppb AFB1/kg of diet for 3 months. Results showed various levels of AFB1 do not significantly affect the specific growth ratio (SGR) (P < 0.05) of fish in different treatments...
