abstract improving nitrogen use efficiency (nue) is an important objective of the agroecosystem management. a field experiment was conducted to study the effect of different competition patterns on nitrogen balance in the wheat agroecosystem. experimental design was split–plot based on randomized complete blocks with four replications. the main plots consisted of different nitrogen rates (i.e. ...

a field experiment was conducted in 2010, to evaluate the effects of plant density (d1, d2 and d3: 8, 14 and 20 plant/m2) on field performance of sorghum under different nitrogen application rates (n1, n2 and n3: application of 40, 80 and 120 kg/ha nitrogen, respectively). the experiment was arranged as factorial based on randomized complete block design in three replicates. results indicated t...

Manipulation of stomatal density was investigated as a potential tool for enhancing drought tolerance or nutrient uptake. Drought tolerance and soil water retention were assessed using Arabidopsis epidermal patterning factor mutants manipulated to have increased or decreased stomatal density. Root nutrient uptake via mass flow was monitored under differing plant watering regimes using nitrogen-...

pepper is one of the nutrition demanding vegetable. in order to compare n fertilizer uptake and plant numbers per area unit, an experiment was conducted with replications. in which fertilizer was the main factor and included ammonium nitrate in 7 levels (0, 80, 160, 240 kg /ha-1) and 40+40, 80+80, 120+120 kg/ha-1 (in 2 stages i.e. half of these amounts appliedpre planting and the other half of ...

in order to study on effect of plant density and nitrogen on yield and yield components of visia faba (faba bean), the experimental design was implemented by randomized complete block with three replications at 2010- 2011 in lahijan. the experimental factors were three plant density (25×25 cm, 35×35 cm and 45×45 cm) and four nitrogen fertilizer (0, 20, 40, 60 kg ha-1). in this experiment, featu...

the effect of levels of nitrogen on growth and nitrogen uptake patterns and grain protein quality of grain sorghum was investigated by two experiments which were conducted at pakdasht-tehran in 2003. in a completely randomized design with three replications, grain sorghum (sorghum bicolor (l.) moench) hybrid h-726 was grown under greenhouse conditions using water culture technique. the first ex...

high nitrogen and plant density cause increasing vegetative growth and reducing harvest index. the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of cycocel at high nitrogen and plant density on safflower yield and yield components. for this purpose a field experiment was carried out as a factorial-split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications with esfahan 14 ...
