the beet armyworm, spodoptera exigua, is one of the most important pests of sugar beet in iran. the aim of this study was to determine the effect of water and nitrogen treatments of sugar beet planton developmental time and fecundity life table parameters of the pest. an experiment was carried out under laboratory conditions (25±2oc, 70±5% r.h. and 12l: 12d) on larvae reared on sugar beet leave...

the amount of nitrogen fertilizer is an effective factor on the growth, development, and reproduction of phytophagous insects. to investigate the effect of nitrogen fertilization on intrinsic rate of increase of cabbage aphid, brevicoryne brassicae l., plants rape oilseed (rgs003cultivar) were treated with four nitrogen levels (zero (check) 50, 100, and 150% of recommended levels. the results s...

for a determination of optimum levels of water and nitrogen fertilizer, as regards corn yield and nitrate movement in soil, a split-plot experiment, using a randomized complete block design of three replications was conducted in safiabad agricultural research center, on a silty clay loam soil. three irrigation levels (50, 75, and 100% of water requirement) and three nitrogen fertilizer levels (...

yield increase of crop along with human health and environment persistence could obtain from correct use of nitrogen fertilizer. in this study the effect of different regime n application on n efficiency grain sorghum genotypes in 2009 growing season at the khorasan razavi agriculture natural resources research center mashhad was investigated. split plots experiment in base of randomized comple...

in order to evaluate the effect of different levels of salinity and three nitrogen nutrition on biochemical reactions and changes in dry weight of shoot and root on psyllium (plantago ovata f.), a glasshouse experiment in a complete randomized design with three replications in 2009 at university of zabol was conducted. salinity treatments in this experiment were 0, 100 and 200 mm of nacl and ni...

in order to investigate the yield and yield components of four lentil genotypes (local line, local bulk, ill-10314 and ill-6037 genotypes) as affected by three urea nitrogen levels including 0, 45 and 90 kg ha-1, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was carried out in agriculture and natural resources research center of ardabil, during 2008. b...
