Effects of nitrogen on the leaf chlorophyll (chl), yield and yield attributing characters of potato as tuber number and mean tuber weight were studied. Correlation coefficients between the investigated characters were determined. Five nitrogen rates (0, 150, 200, 250 and 300 kg/ha) and four potato cultivars (Burren, Slaney, Anna and Emma) were used in the study. First, second, third class tuber...

in order to determination of partitioning n fertilizer by using of leaf color chart (lcc) and chlorophyll meter (spad) in rice an experiment was conducted as split plot under randomized complete block design with three replications during 2006 and 2007 at rice research institute of iran. main plots were contained cultivars in three levels (grh1, khazar and hashemi) and sub plots were contained ...

Light-dependent O(2) reduction concomitant with O(2) evolution, ATP formation, and NADP reduction were determined in isolated spinach (Spinacia oleracea L. var. America) chloroplast lamellae fortified with NADP and ferredoxin. These reactions were investigated in the presence or absence of catalase, providing a tool to estimate the reduction of O(2) to H(2)O(2) (Mehler reaction) concomitant wit...

Correlations between extractable leaf chlorophyll (Chl) concentration and portable, nondestructive leaf “greenness” meter readings imply that such estimates can be used as surrogate measurements of leaf nitrogen (N) status. However, few studies have actually found a direct relationship between Chl meter readings and leaf N. We evaluated the utility of two handheld transmittance-based Chl conten...

This study was conducted to determine the effects of different irrigation water treatments and silicon doses on leaf SPAD meter readings, chlorophyll content carotenoid contents tomato plants. Tybiff Aq seedling were grown in 3-liter pots filled with 1100 g 1:1 peat-perlite mixture for 70 days. Four type waters prepared use sea tap water. Irrigation included I) Full water, II) ½ + III) ¼ ¾ IV) ...
