in order to understand the effects of different organic and chemical fertilizer on stigma yield, corm characterstics and leaf dry matter yield (as a forage) of saffron (crocus sativus l.), an experiment was conducted in the research station of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran, in 2005-2009; as a randomized complete block design with 12 treatments and three replicatio...

Background and Aims: Formaldehyde, a colorless aldehyde with pungent odor, has negative effects on systems of the body. Considering, there are a little data about protective substances against kidney damage induced by formaldehyde, the aim of the present study was to examine the effects of different doses of N-acetyl cysteine on biochemical and histopathological parameters in k...

to study the effects of urea foliar spray at different plant growth stages on grain yield and protein percentage of two dryland wheat varieties of sardari and azar 2, an experiment was conducted in east mangor agricultural station of mahabad in 2007– 2008. the experiment design was split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications. treatments were 50 gr×10 m-2 n as ur...

A study was conducted at Bunda College during the 2003/04 crop season to assess the effect of fertilizer application practices on performance of maize with emphasis on improving the efficiency of using urea as a top dressing fertilizer The treatments were laid out as a split-plot in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with maize varieties as main plots and fertilizer application practices...

Urban ecosystems are rapidly expanding and their effects on atmospheric nitrous oxide (N2O) inventories are unknown. Our objectives were to: (i) measure the magnitude, seasonal patterns, and annual emissions of N2O in turfgrass; (ii) evaluate effects of fertilization with a high and low rate of urea N; and (iii) evaluate effects of urea and ammonium sulfate on N2O emissions in turfgrass. Nitrog...

in order to evaluate the effects of seed priming and different levels of nitrogen on yield and yield components of two corn (zea mays) hybrids, an experiment was carried out as split plot factorial based on a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with four replications in agricultural research station of shahrood university of technology. the treatments were urea levels (150, 250, 350 kg/ha) ...

Field investigations are important tools for confirmation of the effectiveness of the organic manures on crop yield. As different N sources, this work presents a comparative study of the effects of urea, cow dung and poultry manure on plant height, stem length and diameter, leaf length, breadth and number accompanied with the fresh weight of plant, stem, leaf coupling stem leaf ratio and gross ...

Incubation experiment was conducted on four soil types in Nigeria using cattle dung (CD) at the rate of 2.5g/kg soil ( 5 t ha), Urea fertilizer at the rate of 0.1g/kg soil ( 200 kg ha ) and cattle dung (2.5g/kg soil) combined with Urea 0.05g/kg soil (100 kg ha) as treatments. The objective of the experiment was to compare the rate of OC, NH4 – N, NO3 – N and available P release on soils selecte...

effect of different irrigation regimes and nitrogen fertilizer on percentage of grain fatty acids, yield, water and nitrogen use efficiency of pumpkin was studies as split plot based on complete randomized block design with three replications in growing season of 2013. irrigation treatments (320, 420, 600 and 900 mm ha-1) were se as main plots and nitrogen fertilizer (0, 130, 260, 390 and 520 k...
