performance of chamomile (matricaria chamomilla l.) was evaluated on twelve transplanting dates that were arranged at 30 days interval; during 2013-2014 on experimental field of wondo genet agricultural research center; using rcbd design with three replications. transplanting time exerted a very highly significant (p<0.0001) influence on plant height, flower yield and essential oil yield; essen...

Rice (Oryza sativa L) is an important source of food, as the population world increasing additional supply rice requisite to feed population. Moringa leaf extract, salicylic acid and zinc sulphate are excellent growth regulators used worldwide. A field experiment was conducted on at Bahauddin Zakariya University, Multan, Pakistan. Fine (super basmati) sown by two methods (S1= transplanting meth...

Background: The application of polyamines as a plant growth substance with effect on a wide range of plant growth and development processes include cell division, flowering, senescence delay, membrane stability, absorb active radicals and different stress tolerance and polyamines Function as a anti-senescence and anti-stress agents in the plant and on the other hand the competitiveness of their...

Saline water has been used in irrigation due to the limited availability of fresh water, especially arid and semi-arid regions. However, use this type can affect crop growth development. Studies have tested chemical conditioners minimize negative effects salinity on plants. In scenario, present study examined role hydrogen peroxide mitigating salt stress zucchini plants grown a hydroponic syste...

Insecticide field trials were conducted in Ontario, Canada, and New York state to identify insecticides effective against the swede midge, Contarinia nasturtii Kieffer (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), a new invasive pest in North America. Field trials indicated that foliar applications of lambda-cyhalothrin, permethrin, acetamiprid, chlorpyrifos, and dimethoate could provide control of C. nasturtii. F...

Essential oils from aerial parts of Mentha spicata, was obtained by steam destillation using a Clevenger-type system. These oils were screened for antibacterial and anti-Candida albicans activity using bioautographic method. A fiel experiments was laid out in agricultural research farm, city Namin, Ardabil province, Iran in 2013. Experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block with seve...

in order to evaluate the effects of drought stress and methanol foliar application on some quantitative and qualitative traits of soybean (cv. viliamz), a split plot experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design at the faculty of moghan research farm in 2011. treatments were three levels of drought stress based on irrigation at depletion of 40, 55 and 70 percent of availabl...

We examined whether the spraying of soybean leaves with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) would alleviate the symptoms of drought stress. Pre-treatment by spraying leaves with H2O2 delayed foliar wilting caused by drought stress compared to leaves sprayed with distilled water (DW). Additionally, the relative water content of drought-stressed leaves pre-treated with H2O2 was higher than that of leaves pr...
