Greenhouse experiment was conducted for four months using Leucaena leucocephala and Pleurotus tuber-regium to determine their bioremediation potentials. Leucaena leucocephala, Pleurotus tuber-regium and Leucaena leucocephala combined with Pleurotus tuber-regium were tested for their ability to improve nutrient (N, P, K, total organic carbon) and reduce heavy metals (Zn, Ni, Pb, Cu) of soil poll...

in order to finding cultivars with high yield and compatible with potato in the form of fall cultivation in jiroft area, an experiment in randomized complete block design with three replication, was done in jiroft agricultural research center in 2013. in this experiment height plant, no. stem, tuber diameter, tuber weight/plant, no. tuber and yield were examined. effect prevent freezing cropaid...

Truffles are hypogeous ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi belonging to the genus Tuber. Although outplanting of truffle-inoculated host plants has enabled the realization of productive orchards, truffle cultivation is not yet standardized. Therefore, monitoring the distribution of fungal species in different truffle fields may help us to elucidate the factors that shape microbial communities and influe...

The hardware design of tuber electrical resistance tomography (TERT) system is one of the key research problems of TERT data acquisition system. The TERT system can be applied to the tuber growth process monitoring in agriculture, i.e., the TERT data acquisition system can realize the real imaging of tuber plants in soil. In TERT system, the imaging tuber and soil multiphase medium is quite com...

Improved crop technologies have a critical role in increasing yield and farmers’ income. The present study was undertaken to analyze the adoption of recommended potato East Khasi Hills district Meghalaya. revealed that majority farmers adopted like improved varieties, seed preparation, maintenance spacing, FYM application, earthing up, weeding, planting harvesting times. However, there poor lan...

given the importance of potato in the economy and people’s nutrition, as well as planting of disease-free seeds, it seems necessary to produce healthy seeds through tissue culture. this study was conducted during 2012-2013 at the research center of agricultural university of tajikistan aiming to evaluate the effect of different sizes of mini-tuber on yield and yield components of potato crop. a...

this experiment was conducted in andimeshk region (north of khouzestan) to study the effects of nitrogen levels on plant characters of  two potato cultivars (solanum tuberosum l.) in identical conditions of poultry manure, in 2012-2013 crop year, as a factorial randmaized complete block design with three replications. the first factor was consisting of four nitrogen levels (0, 70,140 and 210 kg...

Fructokinase (FRK) proteins play important roles in catalyzing fructose phosphorylation and participate in the carbohydrate metabolism of storage organs in plants. To investigate the roles of FRKs in cassava tuber root development, seven FRK genes (MeFRK1-7) were identified, and MeFRK1-6 were isolated. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the MeFRK family genes can be divided into α (MeFRK1, 2, ...
