An experimental research to study the effect of plucking cycles on the physiological pattern of leaf growth of tea plant of newly-released tea cultivated varieties (clones) was conducted at Plantation of the Research Centre for Tea and Quinine Trees of Gambung of Bandung, Indonesia from April 2012 to July 2012. The leaf growth of tea are dependent on several genetic and environmental/agronomic ...

Leaf area information is required in various horticultural and physiological studies and it will be more useful if done via non-destructive methods. The objective of this study was to establish equations to estimate leaf area (LA) using length (L), width (W), fresh weight (FW), dry weight (DW), length × length (L2), width × width (W2), length × width (L×W), length + width (L+W), fresh weight × ...

In order to study the effect of chemical and biological fertilizers on silage corn under different plant densities, a split plot experiment was carried out in a randomized completely block design with three replicates in south western Iran. The main plot included nitrogen fertilizer treatment at three levels (N1: with out chemical and organic fertilizers, N2: 75% chemical fertilizer + 100% orga...

effects of fe and trichoderma harzianum bi strain on plant growth and development of spathiphyllum were investigated. experiments were carried out in an glasshouse and in pots filled with soil, perlite and coco peat (1:1:1) were used as the growing medium. plant roots (seedlings with three leaves) were inoculated with trichoderma (0 and 8% w/w) as media mixture. fe spray (0, 0.75, 1.5, 3 g/l), ...

in order to evaluate the effects of different levels of water and plant density on yield, yield components, morphological and physiological characteristics of a new corn hybrid (ksc 500), an experiment was carried out in 2006 in karaj area. the experimental design was split plot based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications. main plots were three irrigation levels: 75%, 100...

Isabgol is a major export oriented medicinal crop of India. The genetic variability available in this crop is limited owing to the narrow gene pool existing in our country. The physiological and growth characteristics of selected 7 species of Plantago were studied at DMAPR, Boriavi to investigate the relationship with the seed yield. Among the species studied, the lowest SLA (specific leaf area...

Studies were conducted to characterize the effect of advanced potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) seed-tuber age on plant growth potential and whole-plant morphology. Plant growth from single-eye seedcores from 5- to 18-month old ;Russet Burbank' seedtubers was compared. Loss in apical dominance was apparent with advanced age. On a per-core basis, the amount of plant dry weight was equal for the two ...

Background: The aim of this study was to examine the resource allocation among the organs and the leaf morphology of Polygonatum humile. The data were collected from June 2014 to May 2015 in a natural P. humile stand of a temperate forest gap. Results: The dry weight of new rhizome (R0) sharply decreased to the time of new shoot sprouting in next year and was constant for 2 ~ 3 years. However, ...
