In the present study, some ecological factors were studied for Amphipoda at different depths. The Shannon, Margalef, and Hill indices were used to determine the  species diversity, richness and evenness, respectively. In addition, the association and niche overlap values were estimated. Indices of species richness and diversity were highest at 50 and 100m depths, respectively.  The ordination o...

Spores density and mycorrhizal colonization were studied in twenty-five rhizosphere samples of some selected soils and plant roots from fertile and marginal soils of North West Frontier Province of Pakistan. All tested plants are considered to be mycorrhizal plants. Highest number of mycorrhizal spores was found in Potatoes, Barley, rice and chickpea (>4000 spores kgG soil) in fertile soils. Fi...

In this study, the WOFOST crop simulation model was used together with comprehensive empirical databases on barley Hordeum vulgare L. to study the contributions of different yield-determining and -limiting factors to observed trends of barley yield in Finland from 1988 to 2008. Simulations were performed at 3 study sites representing different agro-ecological zones, and compared with the data f...
