in order to study of effects of integrated biological and chemical  fertilizers on  fertilizer use efficiency, grain yield and related traits to  grain growth of barley (hordeum vulgaris l.), a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications in research farm of the faculty of agriculture sciences, university of mohaghegh ardabili in 2012. tre...

to study the effect of urea application in safflower (carthamus tinctorius) and determination of effective traits on its yield, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design in three replications was conducted in tabriz, iran, during 2012. studied factors were urea rate levels as 100, 150 and 200 kg/ha and urea application times 100% in sowing time, 50% sowing time + 50% stem...

The effect of sugars and metabolic inhibitors on the elongation of Zea mays root segments was analyzed by a rhizometer which records the elongation of each of 32 root segments at the same time. Galactose suppressed the acid-enhanced rapid elongation after a lag period of 1.5 hours, but it did not inhibit the slow elongation at pH 7. Mannose was less inhibitory than galactose. Arabinose, xylose,...

To examine the susceptible period for deprivation-induced myopia, six groups of tree shrew pups (Tupaia glis belangeri) were monocularly deprived for 12 days with an opaque occluder starting 7, 15, 21, 33, 48, or 63 days after natural eyelid opening. Compared to the untreated fellow control eye, significant myopia and vitreous chamber elongation were produced by the deprivation in all six group...

Appropriate embryonic and fetal development significantly impact pregnancy success and, therefore, the efficiency of swine production. The pre-implantation period of porcine pregnancy is characterized by several developmental hallmarks, which are initiated by the dramatic morphological change that occurs as pig blastocysts elongate from spherical to filamentous blastocysts. Deficiencies in blas...

Flowering can be modified by gibberellins (GAs) in Pharbitis nil Chois. in a complex fashion depending on GA type, dosage, and the timing of treatment relative to a single inductive dark period. Promotion of flowering occurs when GAs are applied 11 to 17 hours before a single inductive dark period. When applied 24 hours later the same GA dosage is inhibitory. Thus, depending on their activity a...

Recently, multi-time stepping methods have become very popular among scientist due to their high stability in problems with critical conditions. One important shortcoming of these methods backs to their high amount of uncontrolled amplitude decay. This study proposes a new multi-time stepping method in which the time step is split into two sub-steps. The first sub-step is solved using the well-...

The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of drought stress on the kinetics of leaf elongation in relationship to the variation of sugar concentrations and their net deposition rates along the elongation zone of leaf 4 of durum wheat plants. Plants were grown in soil in a naturally illuminated greenhouse, and water...
