This paper analyzes the characteristics of the NPS nitrogen pollution of the groundwater in Guoyuan Village, Pudong District, Shanghai. And the associated effects on the surface and groundwater around the study area are discussed in detail based on the successive observed data, DNDC and L-THIA model. The results show that both of the surface and groundwater are polluted so seriously that they a...

Objective: Economic analysis was performed for the main horticultural crops in Buin Zahra (pistachio, peach, nectarine, and apple). There were dependent and independent variables in this research. Methods: The independent variables were planting method (mechanized and conventional), land area used for fruit production, and land ownership. The maximum energy used, mostly in the form of fossil fu...

In peach fruits, phenolic compounds serve as a major source of potential antioxidants which are known to play a significant role in fruit quality and in human wellbeing. This study was conducted in a F1 population derived from the cross ‘Venus’ x ‘Big Top’ nectarines in order to investigate the variability in the fruit antioxidant content and to study the genetic control and location of QTLs in...

in other to study the effects of salicylic acid on reproductive characters of ‘elberta’ peach (prunus persica l. batsch) tree, an experiment was carried out based on randomized complete blocks design with four replications in commercial orchard, kerman, iran. the application of three concentrations of salicylic acid 0 (control), 1and 2 mm at swollen bud stage were used. results showed that appl...

peach (prunus persica l. batsch.) is produced in most areas of iran, where flowering is hindered by temperature. using plant growth regulators to delay bloom is a suggestive measure to avoid frost damage. the objective of this study was to determine the effects of methyl jasmonate (mj) and salicylic acid (sa) on peach bloom delay and yield.  this study evaluated the applications of mj 0 (contro...

During the study on endophytic fungi of stone fruits including apricot, peach and nectarine in W Azarbaijan (NW Iran), a large number of isolates with Alternaria characteristics were isolated from different parts of these plants and studied taxonomically. Isolation was made based on endophytic fungal isolation method and following surface sterilization procedure. From 100 different plant sample...

abstract myzus persicae sulzer is one of the serious pests in potato fields which has the ability of transmitting several viruses to the potato crop. throughout summer of 2008, field studies were carried out in ardabil to evaluate the seasonal population fluctuation of this aphid on 10 potato cultivars: granola, satina, moren, aozonia, cosima, agria, cosmos, kondor, diamant and savalan. density...

in this research, population fluctuation of canola aphids and their natural enemies were investigated during 2007-2008. random samples of 50 plants were taken twice a week. mustard aphid (lipaphis erysimi kalt.), green peach aphid(myzus persicae sulzer)and cabbage aphid (brevicoryne brassicae l.) were recorded on canola. however,the mustard aphid with relative frequency of 79% was dominant. the...
