effect of different amounts of foliar- and soil- applied n were evaluated in a factorial arrangement of rcbd with three replications at the agricultural research station of gorgan in 2004-2005 growing season. two promising lines of bread wheat, two levels of foliar application of nitrogen (0 and 5%) at tillering and booting stage, with five rates of 0, 45, 90, 135 and 180kg n/ha as urea were us...

in order to study the effect of n fertilizer rates on morphological traits, yield and yield components of rice cultivars, a study was carried out in rice research institute of rasht, iran during 2009. it was a two-variable factorial experiment based on a randomized complete block design with three replications. the first factor was nitrogen fertilization at four rates of 0, 30, 60 and 90 kg n h...

plant photosynthetate partitioning is important in seed yield formation. in this research, in order to study grain filling procedure of chickpea in the presense of drought stress and nitrogen (n) fertilizer on remobilization rate, final grain weight and grain yield were measured. experiment was performed in an split-factorial using randomized complete block design with three replications. droug...

Water shortage and low phosphorus (P) availability limit yields in soybean. Roots play important roles in water-limited and P-deficient environment, but the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown. In this study we determined the responses of four soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] genotypes [Huandsedadou (HD), Bailudou (BLD), Jindou 21 (J21), and Zhonghuang 30 (ZH)] to three P levels [applied ...

Agroindustrial wastes such as spent grain, cocoa husk, rice bran and sawdust, unamended and amended with cattle, poultry and goat droppings were studied as to their effect on growth, fruit yield and nutrient composition of tomato (Lycopersicum escutentum Mill) in two experiments. Analysis of the wastes showed varying nutrient composition with C:N values of 11.1, 12.5, 23.3 and 18.2 respectively...

The project objective was to determine the CLA content of three muscles (Longissimus lumborum, LD; Semimembranosus, SM; Triceps brachii, TB), in both raw and cooked states, in cattle finished on pasture or with grain supplements. Cattle were randomly assigned to one of four finishing regimens; pasture (n=11), pasture with grain supplement (n=11), pasture with grain supplement containing soyoil ...
