In order to investigate the effects of priming methods on the improvement of seed germination indices and seedling growth of Lallemantia (Lallemantia Iberica) under different salinity levels, two factorial experiment in a randomized complete block design were carried out in the seed technology laboratory of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources University of Khuzestan in 2018-2019. In the...

Francisella tularensis is a gram-negative coccobacillus and the etiologic agent of the zoonotic disease tularemia. First described in 1911 in Tulare County, California, it has since been reported throughout the Northern Hemisphere, with natural infections reported among an unusually wide range of vertebrates and invertebrates. In recent years, tularemia has emerged in new geographic locations, ...

The application of pre-emergence, post-emergence, and burn-down herbicides (i.e., glyphosate) continues to increase as producers attempt to reduce both negative environmental impacts from tillage and input costs from labor, machinery and materials. The use of precision agriculture technologies such as automatic boom section control allows producers to reduce offtarget application when applying ...

BACKGROUND Multiyear epidemics of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi have been reported from countries across eastern and southern Africa in recent years. In Blantyre, Malawi, a dramatic increase in typhoid fever cases has recently occurred, and may be linked to the emergence of the H58 haplotype. Strains belonging to the H58 haplotype often exhibit multidrug resistance and may have a fitness ad...

emergence from general anesthesia can be associated with coughing, agitation, and hemodynamic disturbances. remifentanil may attenuate these responses. we have examined the effect of remifentanil on the hemodynamic response to the emergence from anesthesia and tracheal extubation. in a double-blind, randomized trial, we enrolled 50 adult patients undergoing abdominal surgery. all patients recei...

to investigate the effect of on-farm seed priming and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in different amounts of phosphate fertilizer on emergence, yield and yield components of a semi-mid maturity corn hybrid (es-sensor), an experiment was conducted at the research station of agriculture college, bu-ali sina university in 2012 in a factorial randomized complete block design with three replications, ...

to study the effects of biofertilizers on physiological and morphological characteristics, as well on essential oil content in dragonhead (dracocephalum moldavica), an experiment was conducted at tarbiat modares university in 2009. the studied factors were: vermicompost (0, 15, 30% v/pot), azotobacter (inoculated and non-inoculated), and phosphatic biofertilizer (inoculated and non-inoculated)....

evaluation of soil microorganisms and their beneficial relationships among ecosystem components is one of new topic in soil resource management for ensuring sustainable agriculture. in order to investigating effects of trichoderma spp. and different organic manures on improvement of growth and development in soybean [glycine max (l.) merril.], an experiment was conducted at glasshouse in sari a...

to evaluate the effect of on-farm seed priming and methods of zinc sulfate application on seed emergence properties, yield and yield components of two corn cultivars, an experiment was conducted as factorial in randomized complete block design with three replications during 2012 at research farm of bu-ali sina university, hamedan. first factor was methods of zinc sulfate application containing ...

in order to investigate the effects of cattle manure, benefit fungi of trichoderma species and psudomunas spp. bacteria on seedling emergence parameters, growth and yield of wheat (triticum aestivum l.) a pot experiment was carried out in factorial (23) arrangement based on a randomized complete design with three replications. the treatments were three levels of cattle manure (10, 20 and 30 t.h...
