Background: Bacterial bioinoculate is one of environmentally friendly input for crop production. Several works revealed that effectiveness of Rhizobium bioinoculant have been affected by the native rhizobia population. Hence, this study was initiated to evaluate the effect of selected Bradyrhizobium in nodulating peanut in the major growing areas of Ethiopia. Methods: The effect of eight effect...

abstract in order to investigate the effect of biofertilizer, chemical fertilizer and plant density on yield and corm criteria of saffron, an experiment was conducted as complete randomized block design in a factorial arrangement with three replications under field condition in agricultural college, ferdowsi university of mashhad during 3 years of 2007,2008,2009. treatments included nitroxin bi...

in order to study the effects of nitrogen fertilizer on yield and growth of soybean (glycine max l.) an experiment as factorial in rcb design with three replications was conducted during 2006 and 2007 years at north khorasan. factors were cultivar (hobbit, l.w.k., and williams), and nitrogen fertilizer (0, 50, 100, and 150 kg n/ha from urea source). results indicated that cultivar and n fertili...

The use of natural products as medicinal agents presumably predates the earliest recorded history. Ocimum sanctum L., is a plant which is used in several traditional medicine systems to cure various diseases. In this study aerial parts of Ocimum sanctum were collected on august 2014 from Shahr-e-Rey in Iran. Fresh and dry partsof plants essential oils were extracted with hydro-distillation and ...

In order to evaluate the effects of seed priming with Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) on dry matter remobilization and yield of maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted in 2009 at the Research Farm of the Faculty of Agriculture University of Mohaghegh Ardabili. Factors included seed priming of...

a field experiment was conducted to assess the optimum inter- and intra-row spacing on growth, yield and yield component of roselle (hibiscus sabdariffa l.) in 2014/15 cropping season at wondo genet agricultural research center experimental site (at wondo genet station). two inter-row spacing (60 and 90 cm) and three intra-row spacing (30, 60 and 90 cm) were evaluated using two varieties, wg-hi...

The objective was to utilize data from modern US dairy cattle to determine the effect of days dry on fat and protein yield, fat and protein percentages, days open, and somatic cell score in the subsequent lactation. Field data collected through the dairy herd improvement association from January 1997 to December 2003 and extracted from the Animal Improvement Programs Laboratory national databas...

Schwanniomyces castellii B5285 grew faster and produced greater biomass and higher protein yield than either S. alluvius ATCC 26074 or S. alluvius 81Y when these amylolytic yeasts were grown with 2% (w/v) cassava starch as sole C source. With 0.5% (w/v) glutamate as N source, S. castellii reached 7.12 g cell dry mass/l, with a protein yield of 6.4 g/100 g starch. The optimal agitation speed, ae...
