Type of growing medium affects growth of the hydroponic crops. In order to select a suitable medium for hydroponic lemon balm, two greenhouse experiments were carried out on growing media containing different particle sizes of perlite and peat moss mixed with perlite. In the first experiment, growing media treatments were very fine perlite (<0.5 mm), fine perlite (0.5-1 mm), medium perlite (1-1...

Extended Abstract Introduction: Today, seed priming is widely used to improve seed germination in a wide range of plant species. As a result of seed pre-treatment, several molecular and biochemical changes occur, including increased macromolecule synthesis, enzyme activity and formation of different metabolites. Enzymatic and metabolic activities, synthesis of proteins in quantitative and qual...

Dut to econemic and envaironmental limitiations of peat moss as a growth medium for ornamental plants, researchers seek an apporiate alternative in flower and plants industry. Zeolite, due to its high potential in water holding capcity and cation enchange capacity, has the ability to replace peat moss. To investigate the posibility of subtituting peat moss by zeolite as a proper medium for grow...

چکیده توان بالقوه تجاری سلولازها و کاربردهای گوناگون آن ها در بسیاری از صنایع انگیزه ای قوی برای تحقیق در این زمینه طی چند دهه گذشته بوده است. با توجه به کاربردهای فراوان این آنزیم در صنایع غذایی? در این پژوهش تصمیم به جداسازی ریزسازواره های تولید کننده سلولاز از خاک درختان انار، انگور، خرمالو و گردو حیاط دانشکده کشاورزی تربیت مدرس، گرفته شد. در این بین خاک درخت خرمالو به دلیل دارا بودن تعداد ...

To evaluate the effect of different culture media on growth indices of Pelargonium ×hortorum “Maverick Star” in plug culture, a greenhouse experiment was carried out based on a completely randomized design with seven treatments and four replications. The treatments were seven different substrates including peat moss (100%), cocopeat (100%), peat moss + cocopeat (60%+40%), peat moss + cocopeat (...
