ABSTRACT- In the past few decades, accumulation of heavy metals, such as lead (Pb), in soils has increased as a result of human activities.The environmental hazard associated with soil enrichment in heavy metals is related to their mobility and plant availability. Application of various materials such as humic may influence the amount of Pb taken up by plant. Four levels of each of liquid and s...

abstract in order to study the effects on salinity and silicon application on yield and yield components of purslane (portulaca oleracea l.), an experiment was conducted in a completely randomized desgin with three replications and two factors consisted of four different levels of salinity using nacl (0, 7, 14, 21ds/m) and two levels of silicon (application of one mmol sodium silicate and not a...

optimal nutrition of grapevine is one of the most important factors that affect the quantity, quality and time of fruit ripening. to increase the quantity and quality of ‘askari’ cultivar, a factorial experiment in a randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at shahrekord in 2010. treatments consisted of four levels of potassium sulfate fertilizer (zero, 300, 600 an...

in order to study the effect of mallow weed competition and nitrogen (n) rates on grain yield and yield components of wheat cv. chamran, a field experiment was conducted in 2009. the experiment was designed as a split-plot with three replications and additive series. the n application rates were assigned in the main-plots (50, 100, 150 and 200 kg.n.ha-1) and sub-plots consisted of target common...

Nitrogen (N) application management needs to be refined for low yielding environments under dryland conditions. This 3-yr study examined nitrogen fertilization management effects on corn (Zea mays L.) plant characteristics and grain yield in rain fed environment under conventional tillage system. Nitrogen fertilization management consisted of two timing methods of N application [all N at planti...

In order to study the effect of irrigation interval, N fertilizer and superabsorbent on yield and qualitative traits of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.), a split-split-plot experiment was coducted in a farm in Khusf of Birjand, Iran in 2009 on the basis of a Randomized Complete Block Design. The main plot was devoted to irrigation interval at three levels of 6, 12 and 18 days, the sub-plot was devot...
