in order to investigate the effect of organic and chemical fertilizers on growth characteristics of marjoram, a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad during 2012-2013 growing season. treatments were comprised of four urea levels (0, 21.7, 108.7 and 195.7 kg.ha-1) a...

Experiments were conducted to assess the effect of dietary organic and nano-particle forms Cu at reduced levels on serum biochemical profile immune response in improved chickens. Giriraja chicks (n=420) assigned starter (1-6 weeks) grower diets (7-10 Swarnadhara breeders (n=224) breeder (28-48 during experimentation. Control diet prepared for each phase was supplemented with inorganic CuSO4 as ...

plant photosynthetate partitioning is important in seed yield formation. in this research, in order to study grain filling procedure of chickpea in the presense of drought stress and nitrogen (n) fertilizer on remobilization rate, final grain weight and grain yield were measured. experiment was performed in an split-factorial using randomized complete block design with three replications. droug...

The effects of Ocimum basilicum (O. basilicum) and its constituent, rosmarinic acid, on total and differential blood WBC, serum levels of NO2, NO3, MDA, thiol, SOD and CAT in sensitized rats were examined. The study was performed in control animals (group C) and eight groups of sensitized rats to ovalbumin which were given drinking water alone (group S), drinking water containing three concentr...

Efforts to increase the production of kale with a hydroponic cultivation system, addition nutrients is absolutely necessary for both macro and micronutrients. In using AB mix nutrients, use other alternative fertilizers in needs be big concern so that it can suppress inorganic fertilizers. The purpose this study was determine effect giving various types nutrient compositions cow urine on growth...

background: the appropriateness of using serum levels of procalcotonin (pct) for early diagnosis of newborn sepsis is still controversial. therefore, the objective of the present study was to compare the usefulness of pct with those of serum levels of c-reactive protein (crp) and white blood cell (wbc) counts in the diagnosis and response to treatment of neonatal sepsis.   methods: a total of 4...

600 seven day-old ross broiler chicks were tested in a factorial experiment (2×5) with two levels of oil (three and six percent) and five levels of soybean oil and soapstock (100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 and 0:100) with four replicates. rations were isocaloric and isonitrogenus. the chicks of the rations with three percent fat had higher weight gain and lower feed intake and feed: gain ratio (p
