intercropping is one of the management methods for crop production and leads to improvement of resource absorption and use by plants. based on this purpose the present field study was conducted to evaluate radiation absorption and uses efficiency in corn and bean strip intercropping at the farm of the faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran during 2009. the experiment was s...

Soil sickness is a critical problem for eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) under continuous cropping that affects sustainable eggplant production. Relay intercropping is a significant technique on promoting soil quality, improving eco-environment, and raising output. Field experiments were conducted from September 2010 to November 2012 in northwest China to determine the effects of relay intercrop...

Intercropping induces the diseases decreasing, and yield increasing, may partly due to the improvement of microclimate in fields. In order to understand the mechanism and efficiency of resource utilization in intercropping of maize (Zea mays) and soybean (Glycine max), a field experiment was conducted as factorial on the bases of randomized complete block design of three patterns with three rep...

leiomyomatosis peritonealis disseminata is a very rare condition characterized by the development of multiple smooth muscle-like nodules in the peritoneal cavity. it is associated with increased serum levels of gonadal steroids. the present report describes a 29-year-old patient underwent transabdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo oophorectomy six years ago because of leiomyomatosis per...

The Indian population is growing rapidly (1.25 billion) and it has to fulfill its food and nutrition requirement. A collaborative strategy should be adopted for increasing productivity by intensifying available land use system. Intercropping is advanced management practices of soil fertility status, consisting of cultivating two or more crops in the same space at the same time, which have been ...

This scientific report describes the effect of feeding detoxified karanj seed cake as protein replacement of soya bean meal on immunity and pathology in growing lambs. Twenty-four male lambs, 4-6 months of age were divided into four groups of six each and fed with different levels of detoxified karanj seed cake (dKC 0%, dKC 25%, dKC 50%, dKC 75%) for 140 days. Effect on humoral and cell mediate...

this study was designed to determine the effects of dietary replacement of fish oil with canola oil ongrowth performance, feed efficiency of body and economic indices of experimental diets of juvenilecommon carp (cyprinus carpio). during the experiment 270 juvenile fish with an average initialweight of 16.24 ± 0.10g were randomly distributed in 18 well aerated cylindrical polyethylene tanks(15 ...

Relay intercropping represents an alternative for sustainable production of vegetables, but the changes of internally antioxidant defense combined with the growth and yield are not clear. Field experiment was carried out to investigate the malondialdehyde (MDA) content and activity levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), polyphenol oxidase (PPO), and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase ...
