BACKGROUND: Nutrient management is one of the most important factors that affect the growth and production of maize. OBJECTIVES: Current research was conducted to investigate the effect of Mycorrhizas and vermicompost on seed yield, its components and quantities traits such as concentration of protein, starch, zinc, potassium and nitrogen of corn seed.<br...

In this study, the effect of vermicompost and mycorrhizal fungi was investigated on growth, yield, chlorophyll pigments, leaf antioxidant enzymes, and seed silibinin content of Silybum marianum, milk thistle. The seeds were inoculated by two species of mycorrhiza fungi, Glomus mosseae and G. intraradices, and plants were irrigated and treated with 0, 25, 50, and 75% vermicompost after culturing...

In order to investigation of vermicompost effect on growth and yield of marigold in pot medium, an experiment was done by a randomized completely block design in three raplications. Treatmnets were included control (30% v/v of soil plus 70% v/v of sand) and three levels of vermicompost (20, 40, 60 % v/v of vermicompost+30% v/v of sand and soil) that applied in three lit. pots. Marigold seeds (T...

Cucumbers productivity and fruit quality depend on seedlings’ quality. The success of seedling cultivation largely depends the choice a suitable substrate. Therefore aim this research is to determine effect peat-vermicompost substrates cucumber crop yield. was carried out in greenhouse covered with double polymeric film Institute Horticulture, Lithuanian Research Centre for Agriculture Forestry...

in order to study the effect of vermicompost individually and enriched with chemical fertilizer on soil micronutrient content and micronutrient concentration of lettuce (lactuca sativa l.), athree year experiment was conducted with randomized complete block design in two factors and three replications at the experimental farm of sari agricultural sciences and natural resources university in 200...

BACKGROUND: Management of water deficit is a great factor to sustainable crop production, especially in arid and semi-arid regions. Vermicompost is an organic compound that is microbial active and rich in nutrients that results from the interaction of earthworms and microorganisms with organic matter decomposition. OBJECTIVES: This research was carried out to ...

today, the production of healthy and high quality seedlings is the main factors of success in growing vegetables such as tomato. hence, in order to investigate the effect of different levels of vermicompost and nitrogen on the growth parameters of tomato seedlings (lycopersicon esculentum mill. cv. rio grande), a factorial experiment was conducted in a randomized complete design with three repl...
