in this research, effect of vermicompost and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) on physiological traits of lemon balm under drought stress condition was investigated in year 2012 at karaj research institute of forest and rangelands. experiment was conducted as split-split plot in a randomized complete block design with three replications. irrigation (normal: irrigated to field capacity...

Selection of genotypes based on high value of heritability and forecasted genetic conditions would be an effective method for improvement of wheat cultivars. The present investigation was carried out to estimate the genetic variability of agro-physiological characters using biometrical genetic techniques in 20 bread wheat genotypes under irrigated condition. For this purpose an experiment was c...

Fruit reflectance spectra of five apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) cultivars (Zhigulevskoe, Antonovka, Granny Smith, Golden Delicious and Renet Simirenko) with a wide range of peel pigment (chlorophylls a and b , carotenoids and anthocyanins) content have been studied to develop non-destructive techniques for pigment assessment. In addition to chlorophylls, positions of in vivo absorption maxima ...

Photosynthetic effects of the leaves extracts from Ipomoea cairica on Parthenium hysterophorus L were studied. Ipomoea cairica dried leaf powder (20g) was dissolved in distilled water (200ml) for foliar application. The seedlings were maintained under natural condition in Insect free net house. The experiment was carried out to analyze the effects of Ipomoea cairica leaves extract by measuring ...

An in vitro translation system using lysed etioplasts was developed to test if the accumulation of plastid-encoded chlorophyll a apoproteins is dependent on the de novo synthesis of chlorophyll a. The P700 apoproteins, CP47 and CP43, were not radiolabeled in pulsechase translation assays employing lysed etioplasts in the absence of added chlorophyll precursors. When chlorophyllide a plus phytyl...

Prediction method for large diatom appearance in winter with meteorological data and MODIS derived turbidity and chlorophyll-a in Ariake Bay Area in Japan is proposed. Mechanism for large diatom appearance in winter is discussed with the influencing factors, meteorological condition and in-situ data of turbidity, chlorophyll-a data with the measuring instruments equipped at the Saga University ...
