Phenological periods can affect the growth of forage, single food source for grazing animals, and its nutrition stage animals rumen microbiota. The aim this study was to evaluate effects phenological (regreen vs. grassy) growing stages (hoggets (1.5 years old) rams (3 old)) on bacteria communities functions in Alpine Merion sheep. result showed that Alpha diversity indices ACE (p < 0.001), C...

Microorganisms associated with Vitis vinifera (grapevine) can affect its growth, health and grape quality. The aim of this study was to unravel the biodiversity of the bacterial rhizosphere microbiota of grapevine in an integrated pest management vineyard located in Piedmont, Italy. Comparison between the microbial community structure in the bulk and rhizosphere soil (variable: space) were perf...

in dry region, root systems play a major roll in controlling plant growth and yield due to their importance in absorbtion of water and nutrients. in order to evaluate the morphological characteristics of root chickpea and obtaining proper morphological makers for screening drought resistant genotypes, four experiments were conducted in different phenological stages of growth including, seedling...

Background & Aim: Strawberry (Fragaria vesca L.) is a plant belonging to the Rosaceae family with medicinal properties, including antioxidant activity. The present study aimed at investigating the antioxidant properties of strawberry. Experimental method: To examine the antioxidant effect, fruit extracts at two phonological stages of growth (ripe and unripe strawberry) were prepared. ...

one of the important factors to make a balance between number of grazing livestock and grazing capacity is whether forage contains sufficient energy and protein during grazing period or not. therefore in this study, forage quality was evaluated for important species in steppe rangelands of changuleh located in ilam province. to do this, samples from four species of hammada salicornia, salsola l...
