To survey the effects of chemical and biological phosphorus on the yield and essential oil of Satureja hortensis L. as an important medicinal plant, factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replicates at Research Station of Faculty of Agriculture, Urmia University in 2011. The treatments were chemical phosphorus fertilizer with four levels (0, 50, ...

In this study, two isolates of genus Microdochium (W2 and B26) was isolated from the roots of healthy barley plants in agricultural fields from Kermanshah province in 2014 and were identified as Microdochium bolleyi based on morphological and molecular characteristics. Dual culture studies revealed that W2 and B26 inhibit 45% and 20% of the radial growth of Ggt in tur...

environmental stress especially drought is one of the most important factors to reduce and disturbance in different stages of floral growth especially sprouting in dry and semi-dry lands of iran. for this purpose a factorial essay executed in accidentally manner with four iterations in vitro condition. four genotypes of bromus tomentellus pasture types were used (92 tehran, 630 kordestan, 3414 ...

in this study 21 coriander populations the accumulated from different regions of iran was conducted¬ augmented design at shahid chamran university of ahvaz. some of morphological characteristics (time of emergence, plant height, fresh and dry weight, seed weight)and anti¬oxidant (carotenoids, vitamin c, catalas and proxidase) of these populations were evaluated. the analysis of variance showed ...

The levels of endogenous gibberellin A(1) (GA(1)), GA(3), GA(4), GA(9), and a cellulase hydrolyzable GA(9) conjugate in needles and shoot stems of mature grafts of Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis [Bong.] Carr.) grown under environmental conditions that were either inductive, hot, and dry, or noninductive, cool, and wet, for flowering, were estimated by combined gas chromatography-mass spectromet...

This research aimed at investigating the effect of different levels of nitrogen and planting patterns on dry matter production and growth physiological indices in intercropping maize and sunflower. To do this a split plot experiment carried out based randomized complete block design with three replications in research field of Shushtar Islamic Azad University. The main plot included three level...

This study determined the contents of total anthraquinone glycosides in Senna siamea, which are active laxative form, and total anthraquinones in the fresh young leaves, the boiled leaves, and the boiled filtrates by a UV-vis spectrophotometric method. Total anthraquinone glycosides and total anthraquinones, calculated as rhein, in the fresh young leaves were 0.0523 and 0.0910% w/w, respectivel...

The activities of acid phosphatase and alkaline phosphatase were investigated in two varieties of ripening Carica papaya fruit; Oblong-shaped variety which is also known as ‘Agric pawpaw’ and Pear-shaped variety which is also known as ‘Local pawpaw’. Acid phosphatase activity decreased significantly (p < 0.01) throughout the ripening stages from 0.0186±0.0006 to 0.0037 ± 0.0002μmol/min/g fresh ...

Four strains of plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB), including three strains of Azospirillum and Pseudomonas fluorescens 313 were used to inoculate seeds of wheat, tomato, pepper, and cotton. Inoculated seedlings were grown to the two or three-leaf stage. After harvest, seven different environmental and technical conditions were evaluated to determine the effect of these conditions on the re...
