the research has been done for assessment of effects of different concentrations of indole-3-butyric acid (iba) on rhizogenesis of scions of c. phlomidis in 2010.  the research has been done on randomized complete-blocks for five replications and three treatments with zero, 2000ppm and 3000pmm concentration. different characters such as number of root of each scion, length of root, length of ne...

The meiotic chromosome counts are reported in 10 species of the genus Cousinia including: C. adenostegia, C. antonowii, C. chaetocephala, C. dasylepis, C. eriobasis, C. freynii, C. prasina, C. rechingerorum, C. termei and C. trachyphyllaria from Iran. Specimens have been collected from different parts of Iran out of which, eight species are considered to be new and two provide confirmation of t...

the objective of this work was to study the effects of tillage and liquid manure applications on some physical and chemical properties as well as on the carbon and nitrogen mineralization potential of a meadow soil. our results indicated that tillage and manure applications had no effect on the concentration of cu, mn, total n and organic c in 0-15 cm layer of soil after 15 years of treatment. ...

Elevated atmospheric CO2 can result in larger plants returning greater amounts of residue to the soil. However, the effects of elevated CO2 on carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling for different soybean varieties have not been examined. Aboveground residue of eight soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] varieties was collected from a field study where crops had been grown under two different atmospheri...

Abstract Aims Data on the decomposition of fine roots are scarce for Mediterranean basin. This work aims to compare chemical traits, rate, and temperature sensitivity ( Q 10) root leaf litter 43 species. Methods We carried out a two-years litterbag experiment using types incubated in laboratory conditions at three different temperatures, i.e. 4 °C, 14 24 °C. Litter was characterized carbon (C),...
