in order to evaluate the effects of convention and conservation (no-tillage and reduced tillage) tillage methods on wheat and chickpea yield and yield components and soil physical properties under rainfed conditions in kermanshah (n: 34°19', e: 47°17'), some experiments were performed in sararood dryland agricultural research station during three cropping seasons (2011-2014). in the f...

UNLABELLED Garden soils were investigated as reservoirs and potential sources of pathogenic Legionella bacteria. Legionella bacteria were detected in 22 of 177 garden soil samples (12%) by amoebal coculture. Of these 22 Legionella-positive soil samples, seven contained Legionella pneumophila Several other species were found, including the pathogenic Legionella longbeachae (4 gardens) and Legion...

Based on agricultural biomass resources and utilization in Shaanxi province, this experiment used decomposing mushroom residues, pine needles, peanut shells compounded with river sand as organic cultivation substrates, compared garden soil, carried out pot experiments to study the effect of different soilless substrates tomato yield, size number. The results show that CK1 (garden soil) CK2 (dec...

Desertification leads to decrease in the ecosystem C pool and attendant reduction in Soil Organic Carbon (SOC). Reclamation of sandy land in arid and semi-arid has a high potential to increase carbon sequestration and improving soil quality. Our objective as to examine the changes in the soil carbon sequestration and soil properties of two soil layers (0–20 and 20-50 cm) under two types of recl...

1. Genetic variation within and among foundation plant species is known to affect arthropod, plant and soil microbial communities. We hypothesized that the same would be expected for pathogen communities, which have typically been studied only as individual pathogen species. 2. In a common garden in Utah, USA, we first tested how genetic differences within and among Populus angustifolia, P. fre...

physical characteristics of different features in desert is a reflection of severe thermal and climatic conditions. in this paper, diurnal surface temperature patterns of important surface features in lut desert were studied and the relationship among different surfaces analyzed. diurnal trend in surface temperature of surface types, marl, dark sand, light sand, salt-affected soil, soul at 10 c...

The study of plant under environmental conditions leads to an appreciation of their physical and chemical requirements for growth and reproduction. It contributes to increase the knowledge of where the plants grow. This study was conducted to determine the main autecological characteristics of Salvia hydrangea L. which is an endemic plant distributed in Mazanadarn province, Iran. The habitats o...
