this research was conducted to evaluate the effect of different nitrogen and zinc combination on grain yield and its component in maize by path analysis. this experiment was carried out through split plot based on rcbd, varieties as main plot and fertilizers as sub plot, with three replication at badjgah (experimental farm of shiraz university). nitrogen fertilizer in (120,260 and 400 kg/ha) an...

The release of nitrogen by roots of intact spring wheat plants into the soil and other losses, mainly of volatile N, have been investigated in two subsequent years from tillering until maturation, by use of a new technique for plant labelling with N. Plants were at first labelled by growing them in a N nutrient solution until tillering and then after thoroughly washing the roots with distilled ...

In monocarpic species, during the reproductive stage the growing grains represent a strong sink for nitrogen (N) and trigger N remobilization from the vegetative organs, which decreases canopy photosynthesis and accelerates leaf senescence. The spatiotemporal distribution of N in a reproductive canopy has not been described in detail. Here, we investigated the role of the local light environmen...

In most wheat growing moderate regions and especially in the north of Iran climate, is affected grain filling by several physical and abiotic stresses. In this region, grain filling often occurs when temperatures are increasing and moisture supply is decreasing. The experiment was designed in RCBD with split plot arrangements with four replications. Four irrigation treatments included (I0) no i...
