the present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of these two factors as well as their interaction on seed germination of eucalyptus (e. camaldulensis). a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design with three replications was used. five salinity levels including 0, 50, 100, 150, 200 mm sodium chloride were tested on seed collected at top, middle and bottom of the tree. ...

Cucurbita maxima (CM) seed oil is commonly used in Indian folk medicine to treat various ailments. We have investigated the effect of CM seed oil on memory impairment induced by scopolamine in rats. Male adult Wistar rats were administered scopolamine 1 mg/kg body weight, i.p. or 1.25 mg/kg body weight, s.c. to induce memory impairment. The nootropic agent piracetam 100 mg/kg body weight, i.p. ...

In order to identify the effects of different levels of nitrogen fertilizer on seed yield and seed growth indices of some bread and durum wheat genotypes, a field experiment was conducted in 2013-2014 in Khuzestan Agricultural and Natural Resource Research Center. The experiment was designed as a split plot with three replications. Nitrogen application rates (50, 100 and 150 kg N.ha-1) were ass...

Gene flow from genetically modified (GM) crops to wild relatives might affect the evolutionary dynamics of weedy populations and result in the persistence of escaped genes. To examine the effects of this gene flow, the growth of F1 hybrids that were formed by pollinating wild soybean (Glycine soja) with glyphosate-tolerant GM soybean (G. max) or its non-GM counterpart was examined in a greenhou...

Bio-fertilizers are naturally occurring soil bacteria that aggressively colonize plant roots and benefit plants by providing growth promotion. This investigation was aimed at determining the effect of Nitroxin bio-fertilizer application on growth, inoculation and yield production of corn hybrids. An experiment was conducted as split plot on the basis of randomized complete block design with fou...

in order to investigate the integration of phosphorus fertilizer different levels and phosphorus solubilizing bacteria p.fluorescens on quantitative and qualitative forage yield of two fall barley cultivars, an experiment carried out at research farm of college of agriculture of university of tehran during 2009-2010. the experiment design consisted of three randomized complete blocks in a facto...

to evaluate the effect of nitrogen fertilizer amounts on grain yield of forage corn in 2012, a pilot was implemented in islamic azad university agricultural research station, isfahan, as a split plot in a randomized complete block design. main plots consisted of four levels: control (no fertilization ) , 50 , 100 and 150 kg per ha nitrogen from urea source and subplots , including several varie...

The performance of canola (Brassica napus L.) was evaluated using various nitrogen levels and shoots cutting at New Developmental Farm of The University of Agriculture, Peshawar, Pakistan during Rabi 2012-13. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with split plot arrangement having four replications each. Nitrogen levels @ 0, 50, 75 and 100 kg ha were allotted to...
