essential oil of rosmarinus officinallis was investigated on toxicity and physiological aspect of elm leaf beetle xanthogaleruca luteola mull. for 3rd instar larvae and adults in controlled condition (25 ± 2 °c; 14:10ld; 65% rh). lc50 were estimated 2.55 and 1.11 for 3rd instar larvae and adults respectively. the effect of lc50 dose on remaining insects were investigated on nutritional indices....

the beet armyworm spodoptera exigua (hübner) is a serious and economically important pest of solanaceous crops worldwide. the nutritional indices of this pest on three host plants including pepper capsicum frutescens, eggplant solanum melongena and tomato solanum lycopersicum were determined under laboratory conditions at 26 ± 1 °c, 60 ± 5% rh and 16: 8 (l: d) h. the highest relative consumptio...

Gracilariopsis persica is one of the most abundant red algae distributed in Persian Gulf, despite increasing use in medicine as a major source for natural biomaterials and bioactive compounds in recent years, the researches on growth parameters of this alga remains limited. The main aim of this research was to study the favorable conditions for G. persica growth. Also it was to find the suitabl...

in order to evaluate the effects of drought stress at different phenological stages on growth indices of chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) cultivar jam, an experiment was carried out at the research greenhouse of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, using a completely randomized design with four replications. drought stress was applied by preventing irrigation until the soil mois...

We train and compare the performance of two machine learning methods, a multi-variate regression network ResNet-50-based neural network, to learn forecast plant biomass as well relative growth rate based onfrom short sequence temporal images from plants in aeroponic cultivation. The training dataset consists 57 taken different angles every hour during 5-day period. results show that top-down pe...
