Cork porosity, due to lenticular channels, varied along the stem of Quercus suber L. Lenticular channels’ area, rather than their number, decreased upwards stem. Area decrease was observed regardless tree size and its intrinsic porosity. The cork is radially crossed by defining cork’s natural It has been suggested that porosity decreases from base upwards, but studies on such variation have not...

Stem taper data are usually hierarchical (several measurements per tree, and several trees per plot), making application of a multilevel mixed-effects modelling approach essential. However, correlation between trees in the same plot/stand has often been ignored in previous studies. Fitting and calibration of a variable-exponent stem taper function were conducted using data from 420 trees felled...

the establishment and survival of seedlings is one of the main objectives of forest management which ensures continues production. the aim of this article is the investigation of dead trees effect on beech and hornbeam seedlings in masal's forests. for this reason, 30 dead trees were selected, and the control trees were selected in four aspects around the dead trees. they were the same as ...

in order to study the effects of planting pattern on yield and yield components in different cultivars of forage corn (zea mays l.), an experiment was conducted at saline conditions (ec=6.43 ds.m-1) of dasht-e-malhe, neyshabour during growing season of 2009-2010. nine treatments and two furrow planting and furrow bed planting as main plots and three cultivars (ksc 704, zp 644 and ns540) as sub ...

Lesions at the bifurcation of left main stem (LM) are dangerous lesions, accounting for about 4-8% cases coronary artery disease. Therefore, there is a need study that summarizes anatomical characteristics and lesion LM to help cardiologist during procedure. By cross-sectional descriptive study, we have obtained following results: The length 4.2 ± 1.5 (mm) with diameter (mm), mean angle between...

This study investigated the effects of two organic fertilizer (compost tea and humic acid) compared to chemical on plant growth, productivity, pests predatory insects associated with eggplant Solanum melongena var. Black beauty under net house in 1st April at 2019 2020 seasons. Application fertilizers through fertigation enhanced significantly number leaves, stem fresh weight, average fruit wei...

several plant growth regulators are used to improve the quality of cut flower in bulb plants, but their effectiveness depends on genotype and plant growth conditions such as nutrition status. a pot experiment was conducted under farm condition to study benzyl adenine (ba) and potassium nitrate interaction on floret diameter, stem diameter, flower height, flower number per bulb, fresh and dry we...
