in order to study the effects of nitrogen (n), boron (b) and sulfur (s) on yield, yield components, oil and protein content of safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.) an experiment was conducted in research station, college of agriculture, shahid bahonar university of kerman, using a local variety’’ isfahan’’. a randomized complete block design with three replications was used. treatments were all ...

Pure borax and various boron compounds are produced from the solutions in which tincal is dissolved with various reagents. Economically important boron compounds such as boric acid, borax, boric oxide, and refined hydrated sodium borates and perborates are produced from boron-containing ores. The production of boric acid by using nitric acid from tincal is more advantageous because it evalu...

this study was carried out in order to determine the effects of boron and cold stress on pollen germination of almond hybrids in vitro culture, two different media including the absence and presence of boron (0 mg/l, and 100 mg/l) in 10% sucrose and 1% agar medium at 24°c in dark conditions. the results showed that different treatments had a significant effect on the germination percentage. the...

to study the effects of different amounts of sulphur and boron fertilizers on grain yield and grain quality of bread wheat cultivar pishtaz, an experiment was conduncted in karaj during two cropping seasons 2001-2003. three levels of sulphur (s0= 0, s1=250 and s2= 500 kgha-1) and three levels of boron (b0= 0, b1= 20 and b2= 40 kgha-1) were different treatments of the experiment arranged in rcbd...

this study was aimed to assess the effects of excess boron on 59 genetically divergent wheat accessions and to identify those with high and stable yields under a range of soil boron concentrations. the second aim was to test the applicability of a laboratory technique performed at juvenile stages of development in estimating field boron tolerance. the study comprised a control and three boron t...

It is possible to obtain pollen germination and pollen tube growth in vitro if boric acid is present. In this work the effect was studied using as a semiquantitative parameter the mean length (J) o f Lilium longißorum pollen tubes. Pollen tube growth was examinated in depend­ ence on boric acid, ortho-silicic acid, nucleic bases, Ca2+ and Zn2+ in 10% sucrose solution. The maximum o f 7is obtain...

Elemental boron was isolated in 1808. It typically occurs in nature as borates hydrated with varying amounts of water. Important compounds are boric acid and borax. Boron compounds are also used in the production of metals, enamels, and glasses. In trace amounts, boron is essential for the growth of many plants, and is found in animal and human tissues at low concentrations. Poisoning in humans...

The isotopic analysis of boron from material that carries only trace amounts of boron requires low boron blank levels. Large efforts are taken to keep blank levels low by purifying reagents. We performed exposure experiments and determined procedure blanks before and after the air-handling system was modified from silicate glass filters to polyethylene/polystyrole and active carbon filters. Our...
