Soil salinity and water deficit are major problems for development of agricultural production. In this study, effects of growth promoting microorganisms (inoculation with Piriformospora indica and two isolates of Streptomyces sp.) on the leaf yield and absorption rate of some elements in leaves and roots of stevia plant was investigated under salinity conditions for two consecutive years (2016-...

Objective: Vernonia amygdalina (V.  amygdalina) leaf is locally employed in the Southern region of Nigeria in the treatment of malari a infection. This study evaluated the in vivo antiplasmodial, antioxidant and immunomodulatory effect of ethanol extract of V.  amygdalina leaf. Materials and Methods: The active principles of the dried leaf were extracted with ethanol. For quality validation, ch...

in order to study of some effective phenologic and physiologic characteristics on 18 sunflower hybrids yield under optimum conditions, an experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications at the research field of seed and plant improvement institute-karaj in 2006-2007. the result indicated that the hybrids showed significant difference in phonologic characteri...

This study explores the potential of wavelet decomposition of leaf reflectance spectra for quantifying foliar biochemicals and water. A leaf-scale radiative transfer model was used to generate a very large spectral data set with which to develop and rigorously test the technique. The size of the data set enabled a thorough statistical analysis of the performance a range of alternative methods f...
