this study was conducted to evaluate different nutrient solutions effects on agria potato mini-tubers production under aeroponic system. the experiment was conducted in the laboratory and greenhouse of ardabil sabalan behparvar company in 2013. four recommended nutrient solutions including: lommen and struik (1992), kang and han (2005), otazu (2010) and hoagland and arnon (1950) were used in a ...

to study the effect of plant density on seed yield and yield components of two lentil cultivars a field experiment using factorial design based on a complete block design was conducted with three replications at research farm of college of agriculture and natural resources, university of tehran (karaj) in 2008. treatments were lentil varieties (ziba, mardom), and plant densities (80, 160, 240, ...

the caster bean oil is high value in industry around of world. plant nutrition and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) are important for crop production. an experiment was set up to investigate the effect of nitrogen (n), sulfur (s) fertilizers and pgpr on seed yield production of ricinus commines l. this experiment was carry out in factorial layout based on complete randomize block des...

Temperature changes occur in nature faster than other stressors. Plants due to inability to move and change their position, are exposed to extensive variations in daily or seasonal temperature, and therefore, should quickly and effectively adapt to temperature stress. In order to study the effects of heat stress on physiological traits of forage maize hybrids, a factorial split plot experiment ...

Seventy genotypes of rice (Oryza sativa L.) were evaluated during Kharif 2012 to study the nature and extent of correlation among yield and yield attributing characters, days to 50 per cent flowering, days to maturity, number of effective tillers per plant, plant height, panicle length, number of grains per panicle, 1000-grain weight, grain yield per plant, kernel length, kernel breadth and L/B...

Many plant breeding trials often include a large number of genotypes with possibly no repeated field plots. Ineffective control of field variation could result in an inflated residual variance and/or biased estimation/prediction of genetic effects. Three hundred thirty seven (337) multi-parental spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) F2 hybrids were grown in two locations in South Dakota without r...

The Asiatic hybrid lily, a bulbous ornamental plant, has a special position in the horticulture as cut flower. To overcome some problems in nutrition of bulb flowers, the use of hydroponic system and nutrient solution is important in the cultivation of these flowers. The Asiatic Hybrid Lilium bulbs “Tresor” cultivar, used for the current research were planted under 3 different calcium levels in...
