to investigate the effect of nitrogen rate and split form of application on dry matter remobilization among different rice cultivars, a field experiment was carried out in the rice research institute of iran (amol) – during 2005. a split–split experiment on the basis of a randomized complete block design with 3 replications involving 3 factors was employed in which fertilizer rates (100, 150 an...

to evaluate interaction of salinity stress and nitrogen use methods on yield and yield components, in experiment was conducted in split plot in randomized complete block with 3 replications. treatments included: salinity of irrigation water levels 1.5, 4.4 and 7.9 ds/m as main plots, and nitrogen treatments 1. using n fertilizer at 3 stage in soil, 2. using two third n fertilizer in soil at pla...

Arsenic (As) accumulation in rice owing to uptake from the soil is a critical human health issue. Here, we studied the chemical properties of As-treated soils, growth inhibition patterns of As-stressed rice plants, changes in the As content of soil and soil solutions, and the relationship between As accumulation and As transfer factor from the soil to the rice organs. Rice plants were cultivate...

The chlorophyll content is one of the most important traits selected by breeders, and it is controlled by quantitative trait loci (QTLs) derived from natural variations in rice. We analyzed the QTL controlling chlorophyll content by using 94 RILs derived from a cross between 2 japonica rice cultivars, Lijiangxintuanheigu (LTH) and Shennong265 (SN265). Twenty-two QTLs controlling chlorophyll con...

the nitrogen (n) nutrition, crop yield, and responses of wheat to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (amf) were tested in an experimental field under free-air ozone concentration [o3] enrichment (face) conditions. the experiment included three treatments: ambient [o3] (ambient), elevated [o3] (face, targeted at ambient [o3]×1.5), and elevated [o3] inoculated with an amf consortium consisting of sever...

nitrogen is the primary nutrient that shows deficiency in saline areas, therefore, proper nitrogen fertilizer management is one of the strategies to achieve higher wheat grain yield.  a field experiments in a saline soil was performed on wheat with a factorial arrangement in randomized complete block design with four replications, in rostagh area, 25 km from yazd. the first factor was nitrogen ...

The purpose was to comprehensively compare the prediction accuracy of different nitrogen nutrition indexes (NNILAI and NNIDM) derived from critical concentration (Nc) models established by leaf area index (LAI) dry matter (DM) in estimating grain yield indica hybrid rice grown machine-transplanted bowl seedlings. Therefore, field experiments were conducted with two high-yielding varieties five ...
