Various cultivation parameters were optimized for the production of extra cellular protease by Brevibacterium linens DSM 20158 grown in solid state fermentation conditions using statistical approach. The cultivation variables were screened by the Plackett-Burman design and four significant variables (soybean meal, wheat bran, (NH4)2SO4 and inoculum size were further optimized via central compos...

Prehistoric cultivation of wild wheat in the Fertile Crescent led to the selection of mutants with indehiscent (nonshattering) ears, which evolved into modern domestic wheat. Previous estimates suggested that this transformation was rapid, but our analyses of archaeological plant remains demonstrate that indehiscent domesticates were slow to appear, emerging approximately 9500 years before the ...

knowledge of the phosphorus (p) forms is essential for understanding the behavior of phosphorus. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of wheat cultivation on different inorganic p forms of soil. a greenhouse factorial experiment in a completely randomized design was carried out with three replications in 20 soil types and plantation at two levels (with and without plantation). th...

In this paper, a recommender system based on rough mereology was presented for predicting best cultivation dates for wheat in Egyptian Sinai Peninsula according to the required mean temperature for germination stage during October to December. The weather data was hourly collected from El-Arish weather station in north Sinai government from 1985 to 2013. As far as we know, this was the rst stud...

a consortium of biofertilizers (azotobacter chroococcum and bacillus subtilis) was applied in conventional as well as organic matrix entrapped granular forms as sole nutrient source in two different doses for cultivation of wheat (triticum aestivum l. cv. pbw-343). a double dose of conventional biofertilizers increased the growth of wheat plants as measured on 30, 60, 90, and 120 days after sow...

the dominant agricultural land uses are included of wheat farming in the kermanshah providence in the northwest of iran. the objective of this paper is analyzing of topoclimatic zonning of the wheat dry farming areas based on overlying the climatic and topographic character tics. to achieve the exact date of stages of rain-fed wheat growing in different areas of the province, the degree-days te...
