FIGURE 1 Echinochloa frumentacea control over three seasons. These trials were conducted under a wide variety of soil and climatic conditions. A randomised complete block designwith four replicationswas used. The trials werela.id out in such a way that each plot could be compared WIth an adjacent control strip. A plot size of 20 m' was used. ~er­ bicides were applied pre-emergence by means of s...

to investigate the effects of intercropping of basil (ocimum basiilicum l.) and cowpea (vigna unguiculata l.), different levels of nitrogen fertilizers on basil and cowpea yield, an experiment was carried out during 2010 and 2011. experimental factor were included weed treatment (weeding and unweeding), three levels of nitrogen fertilizer (0, 50 and 100 kg ha-1), different planting ratio, (p1: ...

To evaluate the avian influenza virus (AIV) circulation in Antarctic and sub-Antarctic penguins we carried out a serosurvey on six species from Livingston, Marion and Gough islands. Seropositivity against AIV was performed on serum samples using a competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and haemagglutination and neuraminidase inhibition assays. Some oropharyngeal and cloacal swabs were al...

In the study, mean germination time (MED) was determined as 16.6 days, 21.08 and 9.75 days in traditional sowing method, cross double row method Parallel planting respectively, rate index (ERI) same order. It found 0.31 - 0.52 0.40 pieces/m.day. Grain yield 15260 kg/ha 22330 18300 parallel method. As a result of experiments calculations, net energy to be 297,353.23 Mj/ha, 238.986.57 194.782.97 ...

Little information exists on establishment vigor differences among fine fescue taxa (Festuca L. spp.) and the effects N fertilizer levels or clover (Trifolium spp.)-inclusion during establishment. Five replicated field experiments in Indiana, Minnesota, Oregon were conducted from 2019 to 2021. Data collection continued for 9 mo after planting investigate four determine optimal fertility clover-...

The population density of Hoplolaimus magnistylus, a lance nematode, in cotton was determined at planting, mid-season, and harvest during the 1995 and 1996 growing seasons for a Poinsett County, Arkansas field. Nematode populations increased from planting to harvest in 1995 but declined in 1996. Application of aldicarb at planting at rates of 0.59 or 0.84 kg a.i./ha did not influence either nem...

To understand the effects of effective microorganisms (EMs) containing multiple strains on microbes and nutrients in kiwifruit planting soil, EMs prepared with four different strains were added to kiwifruit planting soil monthly from April to August. The counts of bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, and total microbes were determined. The pH, total nitrogen (TN), alkali-hydrolyzable nitrogen (A-N),...

The light deficiency in the canopy is not the main factor limiting maize (Zea mays L.) production but the lower radiation use efficiency (RUE). Conservation tillage planting patterns were used to construct a sustainable agricultural system for soil protection and higher RUE. On these bases, we tried to create more uniform light distribution in crop canopy for increasing radiation use efficiency...

a factorial experiment was conducted for two years in the mahidasht experimental station in kermanshah. the objective of this experiment was to determine the optimum time of nitrogen application on two sugar beet varieties from both, quality and quantity point of views. these varieties, 7233- a diploid and pp22 a polyploidy variety were grown and subjected to five levels of nitrogen application...
