Corn (Zea mays L.) is an important food ingredient as one of the second carbohydrate producers after rice in Indonesia. The use corn plant not only limited to seeds, but other parts can also be used. To increase national maize production, intensification methods applied. One activities realized by selecting planting materials obtained from crossing. superior hybrid seeds intensive development a...

The aim of the present study was to effects gamma radiation (Cs137) on local variety maize (Zea mays L.) usually cultivated at KENGE for possible track its improvement. approach consisted irradiating corn seeds doses ranging from 0 300 Gy intervals 100 each using CONSERVATOME LISA I irradiator. irradiated were sown a plot 176.40 m2 surface area according device in completely random blocks. In f...

Objective: Field experiment was conducted in 2009 to investigate the effects of plant density and weed interference on morphological characteristics and yield of corn (Zea Mays, L.) at Research Station of University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran. Methods: The experiment was arranged as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications. Plant density (D1, D2, D3 and D4: 5, 7...

in order to study of effects of deficit irrigation on morphological traits and growth indices variation of corn forage (sc. 704) in rasht region, an experiment based on randomized complete design with four treatments and three replication was conducted in 2007 growing season, at research farm of faculty of agriculture, university of guilan. experimental treatments consisted of: no-irrigation, 1...

to determine the droplet characteristics of agricultural spray nozzles through water sensitive paper (wsp), the non-circular and overlapped spots appearing on the water sensitive paper surfaces are eliminated. in the conventional approach, the procedure is done according to the subjective self determined estimation of the operator. the objective of this study was to develop a practical alternat...

In this paper, the scale effects are specifically addressed by conducting experiments with air flow in different microtubes. Three stainless steel tubes of 962, 308, and 83 μm inner diameter (ID) are investigated for friction factor, and the first two are investigated for heat transfer. Viscous heating effects are studied in the laminar as well as turbulent flow regimes by varying the air flow ...

in this research, the effects of split application of nitrogen fertilizer on yield and yield component of three varieties of corn have been investigated. for this purpose, a split plot experiment on the base of randomized complete blocks in four replications was used. the main plots were three varieties of corn (370, 447 and 499), and sub plots were six split application of urea fertilizer trea...

The present study compared differences in subjective and objective performance in completely-in-the-canal (CIC) hearing aids with conventional uniform 1.5 mm parallel vents and another with a reverse horn vent where the diameter increased from 1.5 mm on the lateral faceplate to 3 mm on the medial opening of the hearing aid. Nine hearing-impaired persons with a high-frequency hearing loss partic...
