This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of exogenous polyamines, isopropyl ester, 2, 4-D and naphthalene acetamide application on yield and quality of date palm of ‘Kabkab’ cultivar. The inflorescences sprayed with 2, 4-D isopropylester (0, 10, and 20 mg L-1), naphthalene acetamide (0, 80, and 120 mg L-1), putrescence and spermidine (0, 0.1, and 1.0 mM), three or six weeks after pollin...

Coffee pulp, mucilage, and beans with mucilage were used to develop alcoholic beverages. The pulp of 45.3% 54.7% seed, 9.4% only obtained during the wet processing coffee. Musts prepared for all TSS (Total soluble solid) 18 °Bx fermentation was carried out 12–16 days until decreased 5 at 30 °C. Phenolic characteristics, chromatic structures, chemical parameters, sensory characteristics analyzed...

Using sludge obtained from municipal sewage treatment plants, the response of viable bacterial populations during the sludge ozonation process was investigated by a combination of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) assay and propidium monoazide (PMA)-Miseq sequencing. The ATP assay was first optimized for application on sludge samples by adjusting the sludge solid contents and reaction time. PMA-modi...

Due to cost limitations, it is not practicable experimentally investigate the soil characteristics over entire city. Given this, study has focused on using a geographic information system, especially IDW technique, with linear regression models. The study's data collection was taken from different locations around Kirkuk province. technique used examine Standard Penetration Testing (SPT) and ch...

This study evaluated the relation between rind colour and internal physicochemical sensory qualities of ‘Sanguinelli’ blood oranges, one main orange cultivars grown in Mediterranean region. To this end, 400 fruits were harvested three different orchards classified according to pigmentation intensity (slight, medium, intense, very intense). All individually by determining pulp colour, total solu...

Abstract Garifta-merah is one of the mango varieties released by Ministry Agriculture in 2009 with advantage having red-yellow peel when it reaches full maturity. The distinctive taste fruit flesh makes types mangoes favored consumers local and foreign countries. As a new variety, there not much data regarding mango, especially optimal maturity stage to harvest. This study aims determine physic...

Total suspended solid (TSS) is an important water quality parameter. This study was conducted to test the feasibility of the band combination of hyperspectral sensing for inland turbid water monitoring in Taiwan. The field spectral reflectance in the Wu river basin of Taiwan was measured with a spectroradiometer; the water samples were collected from the different sites of the Wu river basin an...

abstract use of organic fertilizer in production of organic products is important. a field experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of different levels of poultry manure on some growth characteristics and crop yield of iranian melons. the design was split plot in a randomized complete block design with four replications. levels of poultry manure (pm) included: 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 tons...
