the objective of the present study is to investigate the impact of spraying boric acid on vegetative and reproductive growth of ‘camarosa’ strawberry (fragaria × ananassa duch.). the strawberry plants were sprayed with boric acid at 0 (control), 50 and 100 mg l-1 at 30 days after planting. in general, results indicated that spraying plants with boric acid had a significant effect on yield, frui...

abstract growth retardants are new chemical organic compounds that increase period of flowering, leave chlorophyll, lateral shoot number, flower number and decrease vegetative growth. they also increase dry, cold and heat tolerance. paclobutrazol and cycocel are examples of these compounds. this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of paclobutrazol and cycocel on some quantitative and qua...

The present study was conducted to identify nutritional value of Rumex obtusifolius in three phenological stages (vegetative growth, flowering, and maturity). Samples were randomly taken in pastures of Saravan in Rasht, Iran in 2015. After drying and grinding, the chemical compositions of Crude Protein (CP), Crude Fiber (CF), Ether Extract (EE), Total Ash (ASH), Neutral Detergent Fiber (NDF), a...

in this study, the effect of irrigation regimes and plant nutrition were evaluated as split plot arrangment based on randomized complete block design with three replications in 2010. treatments consisted of irrigation regimes at three levels: well-irrigation, irrigation disruption at vegetative growth stage, and irrigation disruption at reproductive growth stage as main plots and combination of...
