The comparative effects of different concentrations of saline soil and saline irrigation water were investigated on growth of canola (cv. Ganyou-5). Plants were subjected to control (non-saline), 0.2% (EC 2.5 dS.m-1), 0.4% (EC 4.5 dS.m-1) and 0.6% (EC 6.5 dS.m-1) of sea salt concentrations in soil as well as saline irrigation water. Vegetative growth parameters recorded were plant height, numbe...

The objective of this study was to obtain a seed-origin onion (Allium cepa L.) that able grow in the tropical riparian soil. Research designed with non-experimental. Two cultivars were studied, namely Sanren and Lokananta. Onion seeds planted directly without transplanting, there three plots (4 m x 1.6 0.3 m) germination testplot (1 m). Soil tillage, spacing/ population, fertilization, plant ma...

An experiment was carried out at the Horticulture Farm of the Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during the period from November 2010 to January 2011 to study the effects of cowdung and potassium on growth and yield of Kohlrabi. The experiment consisted of three levels of cowdung (0, 20 and 40 t/ha) and four levels of potassium (0, 20, 50, 80 kg /ha). The experiment was laid out in ...

Carbon partitioning in the leaves of Cucumis sativus L., a stachyose translocating plant, was influenced by the presence or absence of a single growing fruit on the plant. Fruit growth was very rapid with rates of fresh weight gain as high as 3.3 grams per hour. Fruit growth was highly competitive with vegetative growth as indicated by lower fresh weights of leaf blades, petioles, stem internod...

an investigation was conducted to determine the genetic diversity among 44 iranian spinach (spinacia oleracea l.) landraces using 21 morphological characteristics under open field conditions. according to data analysis results, significant differences were found among landraces in vegetative traits at 1 and 5% levels. results showed that tabriz landrace had the highest percentage of female plan...

in order to investigate the effects of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgprs) inoculation on the growth, yield and quality of eesetial oils of summer savory (satureja hortensis l .) a pot experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replication were conducted in field of research institute of forests and rangelands at 2012. bacterial treatments include suspension of thr...

Philodendron bipinnatifidum Schott ex Endl. is a popular ornamental plant that normally propagated by tissue culture methods. However, the growth and acclimatization of micropropagated plants are tarrying processes. Therefore, in present study we examined effect arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) Gigaspora albida G. marginata on success establishment, growth, development P. plantlets during pha...

This work investigated the effects of potassium mineral fertilizers, combined with biofertilizers (T1–T4 treatments) and foliar spraying seaweed extract (at 1 g/L, 2 3 g/L) on vegetative growth characters, chemical constituents foliage, yield quality parameters globe artichoke. The maximum height, fresh dry weight leaves, was recorded in plants that received only soil added (T1 treatment) spray...
