effects of nitrogen fertilization timing close to the beginning of short-day period and white mulch on flowering and yield components have been studied in ‘paros’ and ‘queen elisa’ strawberry cultivars. split plot experiment in a randomized complete block design with eight treatments (two mulch treatments × n fertilization during four different times from last week of august to third week of se...

Synechocystis sp. strain PCC6308 cells were starved for nitrogen for 5 days. The polypeptide compositions of whole cell extracts and washed membranes of nitrogen-replete and nitrogen-starved cells were compared by one- and two-dimensional electrophoresis. Immunoblotting of one-dimensional gels indicated that pelletable ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco) was depleted in ce...

Background: Nitrogen is the most important nutrient requirement for plants. Nitrogen supplying affected the leaf area, carbon fixation, glandular trichomes formation, ATP and NADPH content which resulted to the terpenoids biosynthesis enhancement and essential oils accumulation. Objective: This study was aimed to evaluate changes of essential oil content and components by use different levels ...

Wheat gluten hydrolyzates (WGHs) and anchovy fine powder hydrolyzates (AFPHs) were produced at 300 MPa using combinations of Flavourzyme 500MG (F), Alcalase 2.4L (A), Marugoto E (M) and Protamex (P), and then were compared to those produced at ambient pressure concerning the contents of soluble solid (SS), soluble nitrogen and electrophoretic profiles. The contents of SS in the WGHs and AFPHs i...

Nitrogen uptake and metabolism are central for vegetative and reproductive plant growth. This is reflected by the fact that nitrogen can be remobilized and reused within a plant, and this process is crucial for yield in most annual crops. A population of 146 recombinant inbred barley lines (F(8) and F(9) plants, grown in 2000 and 2001), derived from a cross between two varieties differing marke...

The effects of urea and rumen-degradable protein (RDP) on microbial growth, digestibility, and fermentation were examined using dual-flow continuous culture. The experimental design was a 4 x 4 Latin square with a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement of treatments. Factors were urea infusion (0.4 g/L of artificial saliva) and RDP concentration, and the treatments were as follows: 1) low RDP (8% of dieta...

[1] Biogeochemical studies show that the surface waters of the subtropical North Atlantic are highly phosphorus (P) stressed. Human activity may exacerbate phosphorus stress by enhancing atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition and raising N/P ratios in deposition. However, the magnitude of this effect is unclear, in part, because atmospherically deposited phosphorus sources are not well known, part...

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...
