this experiment was conducted in order to study the influence of different levels of municipal solid waste compost and nitrogen rate on grain quality of sweet corn (zea mays l. saccharata) and some soil properties under marvdasht conditions during growing season of 2008-2009. the experiment was arranged as split plots based on a randomized complete block design with two factors and three replic...

water deficit and low nitrogen content of soil are the two major yield limiting factors in most maize (zea mays l.) producing areas. the objective of the current research was to evaluate the relationships between photosynthetic water and nitrogen use efficiency at different levels of soil moisture and nitrogen contents. a factorial experiment, based on completely randomized design with 3 replic...

in order to study the effects of potassium application on uptake and allocation of nitrogen and seed protein on two lentil cultivars in rain-fed condition a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at ardabil research center for agriculture and natural resources, in 2008. three potassium levels (0, 30 and 60 kg.ha-1), three nitrogen le...

in order to investigate the effects of different levels of nitrogen rate on yield and seed yield components of wheat cultivars, an experiment was conducted on araghi mahalleh (gorogan) research farm in 2008. treatments, nitrogen in the form of urea (0, 90, 180 and 270 kg/ha) and cultivars (tajan, falat and n81-18) were arranged as factorial based on randomized complete block design with four re...

an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary crude protein (cp) and lysine levels on performance and nitrogen excretion in broiler chickens. four hundred twenty 7-day old chickens from ross 308 strain were randomly allotted to 6 dietary treatments with 5 replicates of 14 chicks each (7 male and 7 female chicks). the cp levels were 17, 18, and 20 percent and lysine levels were ...

in this study the effect of nitrogen form and different oxygen levels on growth and development and macronutrients concentrations in lettuce plants was investigated. this investigation showed that sole ammonium application caused fresh and dry weight reduction of shoot and root in lettuce plant. but different oxygen levels had no effect on them. nitrogen concentration of shoot was higher in amm...

in order to investigate the effects of soil chemical characteristics on weed species diversity in eastern mashhad region wheat (triticum aestivum l.) fields, an investigation was held in the year 2009. wheat fields were classified based on the acreage from 3-5, 5-10 and higher than 10 ha. five random soil samples were taken using a 5 cm diameter auger from the soil of each experimental field an...

Deficiency of nitrogen may lead to decrease in yield and yield potential of crop plants. An experiment was done under glasshouse conditions in order to investigate nitrogen levels and salicylic acid interaction on some physiologic traits of borage (Borago officinials L.). In this experiment various levels of nitrogen (including; 27.5, 55, 110, 220 and 330 mg/L from ammonium nitrate) and salicyl...

the amount of nitrogen fertilizer is an effective factor on the growth, development, and reproduction of phytophagous insects. to investigate the effect of nitrogen fertilization on intrinsic rate of increase of cabbage aphid, brevicoryne brassicae l., plants rape oilseed (rgs003cultivar) were treated with four nitrogen levels (zero (check) 50, 100, and 150% of recommended levels. the results s...
