ABSTRACT Biostimulants currently available on the market include those containing seaweed extract. There is sufficient scientific evidence to conclude that applying biostimulants agricultural crops can positively impact plant growth and yield. However, results differ between plants species environmental conditions. As such, present study aimed assess effects of doses application times a biostim...

a pot experiment was carried out to determine the effect of foliage spraying of silicon (si) on growth and ornamental characteristics of calendula grown under salt stress and greenhouse conditions. a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design was conducted with 3 levels of si (0, 50 and 100 mg/l) and 3 levels of nacl (0, 100 and 200 mm) with 4 replications. at flowering stage, s...

according to the global water shortage problem, the exploring for reducing its harmful effects is very important. this experiment was conducted as split plots method based on randomized complete block design with three replicates in urmia university research field during growing season of 2013-14. water deficit stress as main plot consisted of three levels (irrigation when soil moisture reached...

Micronutriens deficiency is prevalent in case of drought stress conditions, so complementary boron and zinc nutrition are important for crops to overcome drought stress. This study evaluated the effect of zinc and boron foliar application on physiological traits of sesame under different irrigation levels. The experiment was conducted as a split plot in a randomized complete block design with t...

In this research, the acclimatized in vitro plants were transferred to the aeroponic system and the effects of paclobutrazol (PBZ) and jasmonic acid (JA) were investigated on the production of potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cvs Agria and Svalan) minitubers. Some plant characteristics were also investigated in this cultivation system, under greenhouse conditions. Plants were foliar sprayed with PB...

Foliar spraying of a small amount of micronutrients (iron and zinc) may increase the yield of anise(Pimpinella anisum L.), an anethole-rich important medicinal plant. In order to evaluate the effect of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) spraying (0, 2, 4, and 6 g l-1) on the nutrient contents and the essential oils of anise, a factorial experiment was conducted based on a randomized complete block design ...

This study was carried out to determine the effects of pre-harvest calcium applications on fruit quality and cracking in "0900 Ziraat” cherry variety. For this purpose, “Codiagro Agroplant” containing 35% CaO (Calcium oxide); by foliar spraying; It has been applied trees different such as dripping from soil leaf + spraying. In study, weight (g), width (mm), length height (suture) seed amount wa...
