in order to evaluate the effects of different levels of potassium and nitrogen on nitrogen use efficiency (nue) and yield of rapeseed (hyola 401), a field experiment was conducted at rice research institute of iran (rasht) in a factorial experiment based on a complete randomized block design with 3 replications for two years (2008-2010). the first factor was pure potassium fertilizer in three l...

Heterocystous cyanobacteria of the genus Nodularia form extensive blooms in the Baltic Sea and contribute substantially to the total annual primary production. Moreover, they dispense a large fraction of new nitrogen to the ecosystem when inorganic nitrogen concentration in summer is low. Thus, it is of ecological importance to know how Nodularia will react to future environmental changes, in p...

this study was carried out to determine nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium contents of rangeland plants using spectral reflectance value. the measurements were made in 1 m2 area of different parts of a rangeland. a portable spectroradiometer capable of measuring the wavelength range of 325-1,075 nm of the electromagnetic spectrum was used to collect spectral data. spectral measurements were ma...

in order to study the effect of salinity stress and nitrogen forms on nitrogen remobilization from root to shoot following defoliation and shoot dry matter production, a research in the form of factorial experiment based on randomized block, was designed in three replications. treatments include: 1) nitrogen forms containing a) biological n fixation (n1), b) 6mm nh4no3(n2), c) biological n fixa...

The influence of nitrogen on the interactions between amoxicillin and Microcystis aeruginosa was investigated using a 7-day exposure test. Growth of M. aeruginosa was not significantly (p>0.05) affected by amoxicillin at the lowest nitrogen level of 0.05 mg L(-1), stimulated by 500 ng L(-1) of amoxicillin at a moderate nitrogen level of 0.5 mg L(-1) and enhanced by 200-500 ng L(-1) of amoxicill...

to evaluate the effect of time and level of nitrogen application on quantity and quality of two carrot varieties, an experiment was carried out in the framework of a 4×3×2 factorial and based upon a randomized complete block design of three replications. the levels of 25, 50, 75 and 100 kg / ha of nitrogen fertilizer were investigated within 3 applied times, namely: simultaneous with bed prepar...

A field experiment was conducted for two consecutive seasons (2009/10 and 2010/11) in the Demonstration Farm of the Faculty of Agriculture at Shambat-Sudan, to study the interactive effect of nitrogen fertilization and rhizobium inoculation on nodulation and yield of soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merrill) plants. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with four replicatio...
