a consortium of biofertilizers (azotobacter chroococcum and bacillus subtilis) was applied in conventional as well as organic matrix entrapped granular forms as sole nutrient source in two different doses for cultivation of wheat (triticum aestivum l. cv. pbw-343). a double dose of conventional biofertilizers increased the growth of wheat plants as measured on 30, 60, 90, and 120 days after sow...

T description of work in refs 206 and 207 was incorrect. Although glyphosate was applied to fields/crops prior to wheat or barley, GR soybean was not in the rotation. Canola was one rotation crop that preceded wheat or barley, but the authors were not sure if it was GR or not (although it is likely based on the statement that the canola was sprayed with glyphosate in ref 207). The paragraph wit...

Salinity as well as drought are increasing problems in agriculture. Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum Desf.) is relatively salt sensitive compared with bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), and yields poorly on saline soil. Field studies indicate that roots of durum wheat do not proliferate as extensively as bread wheat in saline soil. In order to look for genetic diversity in root gro...

Fusarium culmorum is one of the most important causal agents of Fusarium head blight (FHB), results in yield and quality reductions and mycotoxin accumulation. It predominates on cereals in North-West of Turkey in cereal growing fields. In this research the aggressiveness among the F. culmorum isolates and reduction on yield was evaluated. Two wheat varieties (Golia and Ceyhan) and 16 isolates ...

Samples of winter wheat were collected in 1983 from five fields in southwestern Ontario that were naturally infected with head blight. The geometric mean concentration of deoxynivalenol (vomitoxin) in the grain declined significantly from 1.56 mug/g on 7 July to 0.21 mug/g on 14 July and 0.11 mug/g on 18 July and did not increase at harvest (20 through 27 July).

wheat root and crown rot known as take-all disease caused by gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici is one of the most important diseases of wheat worldwide. in iran,the disease has been reported from provinces such as markazi and golestan. in recent years, symptoms of the disease such as stunted and yellow plant, rotted roots and whitened/empty heads have been observed in wheat fields in various...

Land use/cover change has been recognized as an important component in regional and global climate. This study provides satellite observed impacts of agricultural activities on near surface climate. Land surface temperature products from NASA’s earth observing system (EOS) Terra and Aqua satellites are used. The intensive winter wheat field in the southern Great Plains greatly modifies the seas...

abstract the root and foot rot of wheat is one of the important disease of wheat over the world. the root and foot rot of wheat observed more frequently in the resent years at khorasan province (northeast of iran). for investigation the causal agents, several samples were collected from wheat fields of north khorasan in 2007 and 2008. culture of diseased parts of plants on pda resulted. fusariu...
