The resistance inducing agent 1, 2, 3-Benzothiadiazole-7-carbothioic acid S-methyl ester (BTH) has been demonstrated in triggering defence reactions in crop plants against bacterial, fungal and viral pathogens but also against parasitic weeds of the genus Orobanche. In this study, pot experiments were conducted under greenhouse conditions to evaluate the efficacy of different concentrations of ...

This study was accomplished to examine the efficiency of natural zeolite in preventing acute toxicity of total ammonia to Huso huso. The study was performed using Water Static Method in 96 hours. Fish averaged 46 ? 5 g in weight and 22 ? 4 cm in total length were exposed to four different concentrations (15, 30, 50, 75 mgL-1) of ammonia and a group was considered as control. Under stable condit...

Root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita, is the major limiting factor in tomato production in many regions of the world including Ethiopia. For its management, different plant species (botanicals) are being tried in different forms as an alternative to nematicides. The nematicidal potential of baker tree (Milletiaferruginea), bitter leaf (Vernonia amygodalina), parthenium (Parthenium hysterop...

This study aimed to develop an oral delivery system using clay-based organic-inorganic hybrid materials to improve the bioavailability of the drug, flurbiprofen, which is poorly soluble in water. 3-aminopropyl functionalized magnesium phyllosilicate (AMP clay) was synthesized by a one-pot direct sol-gel method, and then flurbiprofen (FB) was incorporated into AMP clay (FB-AMP) at different drug...

In order to study the effects of biofertilizers on yield quantity and quality of Capsicum annuum L., an experiment was conducted in completely randomized block design with three replications in 2011. All plants were treated before transplanting in pots in greenhouse condition by biological fertilizers including nitroxin and biophosphates. Treatments included 3 concentrations of nitroxin (1:3, 1...

in recent decades, phytoremediation is one of the methods which has been a lot of attention. in this process by using of green plants can be removing or eliminate pollutants from water, soil and sediments. therefore, to achievement the objective, this experiment was done in pot culture using completely randomized design with different levels of cadmium concentrations (cdcl2.h2o) including 0, 5,...

abstract paclobutrazol is one of the most important triazolic compounds which are used as growth retardants in some crops. in this study, the effect of application methods and concentration of paclobutrazol on plant height of tuberose and possibility of pot production was investigated. in the first experiment, tuberose bulbs were soaked in 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 mg.l-1 paclobutrazol for 10, 20 a...
