The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the foliar application of zinc (15, 30 and 50 mg/L) and iron (50 and 100 mg/L) and their combination on vegetative, reproductive growth, fruit quality and yield of cucumber plants as a factorial in completely randomized block design with four replications. Results indicated that different applied treatments significantly increased vegetative ...

  Abstract Two experiments with factorial arrangements on the basis of randomized complete block design in three replications were conducted in 2007 and 2008, to evaluate chlorophyll content index (CCI), fluorescence of chlorophyll, proline content and grain yield of three soybean cultivars (Williams, Zan and L17) under a non-saline (control) and three saline (3, 6 and 9 ds/m NaCl) conditions...

to comparison the photosynthetic parameters and leaf chlorophyll content and fluorescence of safflower (carthamus tinctorios l.) cultivars under salinity stress, a pot experiment was carried out as factorial based on completely randomized design with three replications in summer 2011 in university of yasouj. first factor included four salinity levels (zero, 75, 150 and 225 mm (formed as 20 to 1...

Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb) is a typical cool-season grass that is widely used in turf and pasture. However, high temperature as an abiotic stress seriously affects its utilization. The objective of this study was to explore the effect of spermidine (Spd) on heat stress response of tall fescue. The samples were exposed to 22°C (normal condition) or 44°C (heat stress) for 4 h. The r...

A field imaging spectrometer system (FISS; 380-870 nm and 344 bands) was designed for agriculture applications. In this study, FISS was used to gather spectral information from soybean leaves. The chlorophyll content was retrieved using a multiple linear regression (MLR), partial least squares (PLS) regression and support vector machine (SVM) regression. Our objective was to verify the performa...

studying the physiological responses of linseed genotypes to water deficit stress may be helpful in recognizing the linseed resistance mechanisms to the latter stress factors. therefore, a split plot rcbd field experiment was conducted with three replications to explain interrelations of leaf chlorophyll, proline and soluble carbohydrates content and grain yield of six linseed genotypes under t...

in order to study the effect of foliar zinc spraying on photosynthetic pigments and yield of chickpea under water stress conditions, a factorial experiment carried out based on randomized completely block design (rcbd) with three replications in university of mohaghegh ardabili agricultural research station in 2012. the treatments consisted of three levels of irrigation (irrigated at planting, ...

I. Digestion of grass lipids and pigments in the rumen of the sheep has been studied during starvation and following the administration of "C-labelled grass. 2. Both galactolipids contained in chloroplasts are rapidly degraded, although mono-galactos~ldiglycerides disappear faster than digalactosyldiglycerides. I t was concluded that rumen microorganisms are mainly responsible for this degradat...
