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...

in order to finding cultivars with high yield and compatible with potato in the form of fall cultivation in jiroft area, an experiment in randomized complete block design with three replication, was done in jiroft agricultural research center in 2013. in this experiment height plant, no. stem, tuber diameter, tuber weight/plant, no. tuber and yield were examined. effect prevent freezing cropaid...

A study was conducted to investigate the influence of planting methods and tuber weight on growth and yield of local yam cultivars obtained by the minisett technique from white yam (D. rotundata) in Gabon. Trials were carried out in 2014 and 2015 at the experimental ground of the Higher National Institute of Agronomy and Biotechnology, under natural conditions of lightness, temperature and rela...

Traditionally, Corydalis tuber has been used for the control of pain including headache, stomach ache, and neuralgia. In the present study, modulation of the Corydalis tuber on glycine-activated ion current in the acutely dissociated periaqueductal gray (PAG) neurons was studied by a nystatin-perforated patch-clamp technique. High concentrations of Corydalis tuber elicited ion current, which wa...

doi: 10.1111/j.1399-3054.2006.00741.x Calcium is believed to be transported with water in the xylem. Consistent with this proposal, low-transpiring organs such as potato Solanum tuberosum tubers are known to suffer from calcium deficiency. Although roots on tubers and stolons have been shown to supply water to tubers, there is no direct evidence for the calcium transport pathway to tubers. Both...

Two field experiments were carried out during the summer seasons of 2000 and 2001, at the Experimental station Farm, Faculty of Agriculture, Alexandria University, at Abies, to investigate the response of potato plants cv. Alpha, to two biofertilizer types (Nitrobein and Halex-2) under four varying percentages NPK; 25%, 50%, 75% and100% from the commercial recommended rates (180-60-96 Kg N-P-K ...

Potato tuber development has proven to be a valuable model system for studying underground sink organ formation. Research on this topic has led to the identification of many genes involved in this complex process and has aided in the unravelling of the mechanisms underlying starch synthesis. However, less attention has been paid to the biochemical pathways of other important metabolites or to t...

abstract in order to study the effects of irrigation regimes on yield and some qualitative characteristics of three cultivars of potato (solanum tuberosum l.), an experiment was conducted in 2009 in the research field of the college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad. a factorial experiment was arranged in a randomized complete block design with three replications. experimental fact...
