The mosquito control potential of the mosquitofish and Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (Bti) were evaluated in experimental wild rice fields in Lake County, California. Fields were assigned one of six treatment: control, 1.1 kg/ha G. affinis, 3.4 kg/ha G. affinis, Bti only (6 kg/ha Vectobac granules), 1.1 kg/ha G. affinis plus Bti and 3.4 kg/ha G. affinis plus Bti. Gambusia affinis, at ...

Saffron production will be increased in arid regions by providing sufficient water through appropriate agronomic strategies. Therefore, in this investigation the impact of different rates of super absorbent polymer (SAP) including 0,10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 kg ha-1 was studied on saffron flowering traits during two growth cycles. Results showed that the influence of experimental factor was signifi...

in order to investigation the effects of different combination and amount of chemical, biological and organic manure in present of water absorbent materials on some phenological, morphological and yield of soybean, a field study was carried out gorgan region climate conditions in a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications. in this experiment two lev...

The experimental soil textural class sandy loam with pH 5.56, EC 0.03 dS/m OC (5.91 g/kg). low in available nitrogen (218.63 kg/ha), medium phosphorus (15.75 kg/ha) potassium (178.32 kg/ha). laid out a split plot design three replication. consisted four main t...

In order to study effect of phosphorus fertilizer and micronutrients foliar application on yield sorghum, a field experiment was conducted in at 2011 in Research Farm of Payame Noor University of Zahedan, Iran. This experiment was done as split plot Based on randomized complete block design with three replications. Experiment treatments included: micronutrients foliar application containing ele...

Responses of understory plant diversity to nitrogen (N) additions were investigated in reforested forests of contrasting disturbance regimes in southern China from 2003 to 2008: disturbed forest (with harvesting of understory vegetation and litter) and rehabilitated forest (without harvesting). Experimental additions of N were administered as the following treatments: Control, 50 kg N ha(-1) yr...

A study was carried out on the optimal dose of inorganic fertilizer used in carp polyculture system over a period of 10 months. Three treatments were assigned: without inorganic fertilizer, with the application of 100 kg/ha/month inorganic fertilizer and 150 kg/ha/month inorganic fertilizer as T1, T2 and T3, respectively. Each treatment had three replications. The selected indigenous carp speci...

in order to investigate the effects of different irrigation levels and biological fertilizers on quantitative and qualitative yield of ajowan (carum copticum l.), a field experiment was conducted at a farm located in west azerbaijan province - city nagadeh, iran during growing season of 2012-2013. the experiment was arranged as split plot based on randomized complete block design in three repli...

Fertilization of crops with pig manure is a common practice throughout the world. Nevertheless, due to the relatively high copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) contents in pig manure, continuous application of pig manure could have negative effects on soil and plant. The study aimed at the impacts of long-term applying different pig manure rates (equivalently 0, 100, 250 and 500 kg total N/ha/year from 20...
