the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different potassium (k) and nitrogen (n) concentrations in nutrient solution and their interaction on growth and quality of tomato transplants. a full factorial experimental design was carried out with three potassium concentrations (1.5, 3 and 6 meql-1) and three nitrogen concentrations (1.5, 3 and 6 meql-1) for 27 days after seed germination...

Objective(s): Electrospun nanofibrous mats of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and nanohydroxyapatite (nano-HA) were prepared and proliferation and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells on the prepared nanofibers were investigated in this study. Materials and Methods: PLA/nano-HA nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning. The effects of process parameters, such as nano-HA concentration, distance, ...

urtica dioica l. is an iranian native pharmacological plant for which little attention has been paid to the anatomical structure. medical applications of this plant include diabetes therapy, digestive improvement, anemia and kidney disease therapy. because climatic conditions can affect the anatomical structure which in turn affects pharmacological compositions, research on the anatomy of this ...

Variation in angiosperm vessel diameter is of major functional significance. In the light of recent models predicting optimal vessel taper given resistance imposed by conductive path length, we tested the prediction that plant size should predict vessel diameter, with dryland plants having narrower vessels for their stem sizes. We assembled a comparative dataset including vessel and stem diamet...

tuberose (polianthes tuberosa l.) is one of the most important cut flowers in tropical and subtropical areas. this flower has forth order in cut flower and second order in bulbous plants production in iran. plant spacing and nitrogen necessity are the most important factors for tuberose quality and quantity. in this study, field experiment carried out as factorial design in randomized complete ...

in sustainable agriculture, using of resistant plants is one of the best methods for integrated pest management. resistance of 140 rice promising lines against striped stem borer was evaluated in two planting date in the field under natural infections in sari agricultural science and natural resources university during 2008-2009. this study carried out as a factorial experiment in randomized co...

to study the effect of vermicompost and urea and iron sulfate fertilizers on the growth characteristics and yield of sunflower seed (helianthus annuus l.) an pediment was conducted in darreh gaz located in khorasan razavi province in 2012. factorial experiment in a randomized complete block design with three factors and three repetition. in this experiment three levels of urea (50; 150 and 250 ...
