INETY TWO local bacterial isolates, from the rhizosphere and ...... soil around the root system of bean (Vicia faba) grown in Kalubia Governorate in Egypt, were bio-prospected for polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) accumulation. Three isolates accumulated ≥ 20 % of PHAs, they were identified as Pseudomonas fluorescens S48, Bacillus megaterium 7A and B. megaterium UBF19. The tested isolates gave the max...

in order to study the effect of soil compaction on root and shoot growth of wheat plants (shahriar variety), a greenhouse pot experiment was conducted in guilan university. the study design was factorial with completely randomized in three replications. treatments included three compaction levels; (normal compaction, compaction of ten percent and twenty percent) and two type of soil texture (cl...

In order to study of the effect of seed inoculation with PGPR on nitrogen and phosphorus use efficiency of spring wheat in different levels of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers, an experimental was conducted at the Research Farm of Mohageh Ardabili University, Ardabil, Iran during 2012 year. The combination of nitrogen fertilizer in three levels (0, 40 and 80 kg N/ha as urea) and phosphorus f...

DNA marker-assisted selection appears to be a promising strategy for improving rates of leaf photosynthesis in rice. The rate of leaf photosynthesis was significantly higher in a high-yielding indica variety, Habataki, than in the most popular Japanese variety, Koshihikari, at the full heading stage as a result of the higher level of leaf nitrogen at the same rate of application of nitrogen and...

introduction: providing the nutritional requirements of agricultural crops by non-chemical resources is a new approach in the organic farming that has attracted the attention of both the researchers and the consumers in recent years. therefore, it is highly important to find new fertilizer resources that are both economically able to provide the nutritional needs of the crop plants and have no ...

Pseudomonas putida strain A313, a deleterious rhizosphere bacterium, reduced pea nitrogen content when inoculated alone or in combination with Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viceae on plants in the presence of soil under greenhouse conditions. When plants were grown gnotobiotically in liquid media, mixed inocula of A313 and rhizobia gave a higher proportion of small evenly distributed nodules when...

Root cortical aerenchyma (RCA) is induced by hypoxia, drought, and several nutrient deficiencies. Previous research showed that RCA formation reduces the respiration and nutrient content of root tissue. We used SimRoot, a functional-structural model, to provide quantitative support for the hypothesis that RCA formation is a useful adaptation to suboptimal availability of phosphorus, nitrogen, a...

the effect of full irrigation (fi), partial root-zone drying at two levels (receiving 75 percent of et (prd75), 55 percent of et (prd55)) and deficit irrigation treatments at the same levels (75 percent (di75) and 55 percent (di55)) under drip irrigation on nitrogen uptake and leaching in a maize field in sari agricultural sciences and natural resources university were carried out during years ...

in order to evaluate efficiency of nitrogen fertilizers consumption in a sugar beet monogerm hybrid variety of zarghan, a field experiment was conducted in a loamy soil during 2007 in the research farm of sugar beet seed institute located in karaj. five levels of nitrogen fertilizers including 0 (check), 120, 160, 200 and 240 kg/ha of net nitrogen from urea fertilizer (46 percent of pure nitrog...
