in order to study the effect of nitrogen level on physiological characteristics, grain yield and yield components of tetraploid wheat genotypes, a split plot randomized complete block design field experiment with three replications was conducted in 2007 at research farm of isfahan university of technology. four levels of nitrogen fertilizer (20, 80, 140 and 200 kg/ha) were chosen as main plots ...

in order to investigate effects of optimum use of manure and nitrogen fertilizer on yield and yield components of corn single cross 704 (late maturing, non-prolific and dent) in different levels of irrigation water. a field study was conducted in 2005 year in agriculture experiment station of college agriculture, arak university (34o 32′ n, 50o 31′ e; 1759 m above mean sea level). design of exp...

to study the effects of different levels of water stress and nitrogen fertilizer on seed yield and yield components of two common bean genotypes (phaseolus vulgaris), an experiment in a split plot factorial based on crbd with four replications was conducted at the research farm of university of tehran (karaj-iran) in 2010. water stress treatments as the main factor included normal irrigation (6...

The retrieval of nutrient concentration in sugarcane through hyperspectral remote sensing is widely known to be affected by canopy architecture. The goal of this research was to develop an estimation model that could explain the nitrogen variations in sugarcane with combined cultivars. Reflectance spectra were measured over the sugarcane canopy using a field spectroradiometer. The models were c...

Recently, borage (Borago officinalis L. Boraginaceae) has been the subject of increasing agricultural interest because of the potential market for gamma linolenic acid (GLA), an unusual fatty acid extracted from the oil seed. GLA is an omega-6 essential fatty acid which has been identified as having several beneficial properties. Increased interest in production of the crop in western Canada ha...

in order to study the effects of different irrigation regimes and nitrogen fertilizer levels on yield and yield components of chickpea (ilc482), a field experiment involving chickpea genotype ilc482 was conducted as factorial arrangement based on a randomized complete block design with four replications in the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad during growing season o...

We compared the sensitivity of algae and hermit crabs to seasonal shifts in the dominance of continuous sewage discharge vs. pulsed inputs of terrestrial material to a subtropical bay. During periods of low rainfall, when sewage was proportionately more important than diffuse loads from adjacent catchments, algae and crabs provided comparable information on the spatial distribution of N polluti...

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 ...
