The objective of this study was to assess the growth two woody ornamental plants when subjected different levels weed competition in four container sizes, representing stages production. Ligustrum (Ligustrum lucidum W.T.Aiton) and Japanese holly (Ilex crenata Thunb.) liners were potted individually into 3.8 L, 11.4 24.7 56.8 L containers, respectively. Weed coverage 0%, 50%, 100% each size main...

The commercial release of transgenicmaizewith resistance to rootworms incorporated with glyphosate tolerance has become a reality, and questions have arisen regarding the impact of grassy weed phenology on the biology of the western corn rootworm, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera LeConte. A study to determine the impact of host plant phenology on the survivorship (percentage larval recovery), gro...

OBJECTIVE Volume overload from an incorrect assessment of dry weight leads to cardiovascular diseases in chronic hemodialysis patients. Dry weight assessment in pediatric is difficult for a number of reasons including growth. Blood volume monitoring (BVM) has been proposed as an accurate method of estimating dry weight in adult. However, there is very scant data regarding B VM assessment in ped...

in order to evaluate the efficacy of some new herbicides in corn farms, a field study was conducted during the 2010 growing season in jiroft. the experimental design was completely randomized blocks, with 11 treatments and 4 replications. treatments were nicosulfuron at 2lit/ha, foramsulfuron at 2.5 lit/ha, rimsulfuron at 50 g/ha, nicosulfuron+ rimsulfuron at 175 g/ha, bromoxynil+mcpa at 1.5 li...

introduction amount and vertical distribution of leaf area are essential for estimating interception and utilization of solar radiation of crop canopies and, consequently dry matter accumulation (valentinuz & tollenaar, 2006). vertical distribution of leaf area is leaf areas per horizontal layers, based on height (boedhram et al., 2001). above-ground biomass is one of the central traits in func...

Mimosine [α-amino-β-(3-hydroxy-4-oxo-1,4-dihydropyridin-1-yl)-propanoic acid] is a major constituent of Leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala de Wit) and responsible for the strong allelopathic potential of the legume tree. Mimosine showed strong herbicidal activities on six plants in a bioassay. All plant parts of Leucaena contain mimosine. The quantity of mimosine in the young leaves and mature see...

Herbicides are considered the most effective weed management approach in world. Acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS, EC 2.2.1.6) is widely used due to its advantages crop selectivity, effectiveness control broad-spectrum weeds and low mammalian toxicity has become one of popular herbicides by farmers. The overreliance on same over years led evolution herbicide resistance several species, including ...

in order to evaluate millet (panicum miliaceum l.) and cowpea (vigna unguiculata l.) intercropping, an experiment was conducted during 2008-2009 at agriculture research center of zabol university, iran. the experiment was as randomized complete block design with three replications. treatment s consisted of sole crop of millet, sole crop of cowpea, 25% millet + 100% cowpea, 50% millet + 50% cowp...
