the aim of this experiment was the study of dry matter and nitrogen (n) accumulation, remobilization and harvest index in different wheat cultivars. five bread wheat cultivars (darya, kuhdasht, shiroudi, tajan and zagros) and two durum wheat cultivars (arya and dena) were studied under optimum growth conditions during 2008-2009 at research field of gorgan university of agricultural sciences and...

An outdoor pot experiment was carried out in sand culture to investigate the response of spinach (Spinacia oleracea ) cv. “Matador” grown at high salinity to supplementary phosphorus and potassium. Plants were tested during a period from germination to vegetative growth stage. Treatments initiated for seedling and more matured vegetative growth stages were (1) complete nutrient solution alone (...

This study was carried out to evaluate the influence of temperature and poultry litter on germination vegetative growth virulence and conidial production of Beauveria bassiana (Bals.) Vuill. and Metarhizium anisopliae (Metsch.) isolates on larvae and adults of the lesser mealworm (Alphitobius diaperinus) (Panzer). The vegetative growth and conidial production were evaluated on culture media. Vi...

In many studies, topographic factors have been considered as an important factor in establishing the vegetation in different ecosystems. So, it affects vegetation composition and diversity by influencing soil moisture, fertility and soil depth. The aim of this research was to investigate the effects of slope, elevation and geographical aspects on species growth, forage production and vegetation...

In greenhouse tomato crops, several manual operations are performed each week to keep the plants in optimal growth conditions. But growers are trying to reduce labour costs by spacing out the manual operations. An experimental study was conducted on one particular operation, axillary bud deshooting. The aim is to determine the effect of the deshooting frequency on vegetative growth and fruit yi...
