This study aimed at evaluating some quantitative and qualitative properties of potato as one of the main commercial products in Iran. To this end, a split plot experiment on the basis of randomized complete bloke design with silicone and iron was carried out in jiroft as one of the commercial area of planting potatoes. The main factor included different levels of silicon (0, 10, 20, 30 mM.l-1) ...

potato is one of the sensitive plants to drought stress and it is one of the main crops in the north regions of fars province. since the planting time is simultaneous with wheat irrigation period, due consideration should be given to reduce irrigation consumption for this crop. this research investigated the effect of potassium sulfate on the drought tolerance of potatoes. field experiment was ...

this experiment was conducted in andimeshk region (north of khouzestan) to study the effects of nitrogen levels on plant characters of  two potato cultivars (solanum tuberosum l.) in identical conditions of poultry manure, in 2012-2013 crop year, as a factorial randmaized complete block design with three replications. the first factor was consisting of four nitrogen levels (0, 70,140 and 210 kg...

This case report describes a clinical case of tiamulin and narasin toxicosis in a group of nursery pigs, caused by the inadvertent introduction of narasin at 83.1 g per tonne into a ration containing tiamulin at 31.4 g per tonne. The affected pigs were anorexic and showed signs of weakness, depression, ataxia, and incoordination to the point of recumbency, without paddling or other neurological...

a factorial experiment based on a randomized complete block design with three replications was carried out in order to study the effects of tuber size, nitrogen fertilizer and harvest date on yield and yield components of potato. this experiment was conducted in a grower’s farm in uraki village located in chabahar city, in 2011. in this experiment, the treatments were two levels of tuber size (...

background and objectives: potato (solanum tuberosum l.) plant is one of leading agricultural products in the world. it is the fourth most cultivated food crop after wheat, rice and maize. planting density and weight of minituber are the factors influencing on the yield and yield components on seed tuber production in potato. plant density strongly affected yield, both by number and by weight a...

The development of a new global database of fishing cost is described, and an overview of fishing cost patterns at national, regional, and global scales is provided. This fishing cost database provides economic information required for assessing the economics of fisheries at various scales. It covers variable and fixed costs of maritime countries, representing 98% of global landings in 2005. Li...

The application of zeolite to soils increases cation exchange capacity, and as increases nutrient retention capacity. Imbalanced nutrient management is one of the reasons responsible for low yield of potato in Iran. This study was carried out in research field of Islamic Azad University; Arak Branch at central of Iran to evaluate effect of zeolite particles and phosphorus fertilizer on agro-phy...
