an experiment was conducted in the experimental field of seed and plant improvement institute in karaj for three consecutive cropping seasons, 2001-2003, to study the effects of eight different fertilizer treatments including some microelements on grain yield and protein content of a bread wheat cultivar pishtaz. the experiment was in a rcbd with three replications.eight fertilizer treatments w...

Biofortification of rice (Oryza sativa L.) with micronutrients is widely recognized as a sustainable strategy to alleviate human iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) deficiencies in developing countries where rice is the staple food. Constitutive overexpression of the rice nicotianamine synthase (OsNAS) genes has been successfully implemented to increase Fe and Zn concentrations in unpolished and polished r...

the higher levels of essential elements in soil may be caused in optimum yields and crop quality. so it seems to be necessary to examine different levels of nutrients like fe and zn on plants and their productivity. to evaluate effects of iron and zinc application on yield and yield components of pimpinella anisum an experiment was conducted at the research farm of urmia university in 2009. tre...

in order to study the effect of different levels of the manure and foliar application of zn and mn fertilizers on the quantitative and qualitative yield of soybeans (var. williams), a factorial experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2012. treatments involved three levels of fertilizer: manure (zero as control; six and 12 t/ha), two levels of mn...

the effect of different preparation methods of vermiwash on certain wheat traits, namely: yield, growth indices as well as fe, zn and p uptake, as regards wheat grain was evaluated. a greenhouse experiment was conducted within the framework of factorial randomized complete block design (rcbd) of four replicates. the treatments included 1) vermiwash (15 levels) and 2) consumption methods (two le...

The relationships between grain yields and whole-plant accumulation of micronutrients such as zinc (Zn), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn) and copper (Cu) in maize (Zea mays L.) were investigated by studying their reciprocal internal efficiencies (RIEs, g of micronutrient requirement in plant dry matter per Mg of grain). Field experiments were conducted from 2008 to 2011 in North China to evaluate RIEs...

to study effect of fe and zn spraying on some characteristics of mungbean, an experiment was designed as factorial based on randomized complete block with three replications in urmia university, 2012. treatments were nutrition systems (organic, chemical, integrated and no nutrition) and micronutrients (fe, zinc, no foliar application and water spraying). the plant height, pod length, number of ...

ABSTRACT- The effects of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) treatments on the growth and nutrient composition of chickpea were studied in a greenhouse experiment arranged in a completely randomized design. While the application of Fe decreased mean shoot dry weight of chickpea, that of Zn had no significant effect on chickpea shoot dry weight. Increasing Fe levels drastically decreased Mn concentration an...
