The present investigation entitled, “Effect of integrated nutrient management on corm and cormels production gladiolus cv. PDKV Gold” was carried out during the years 2018-19 2019-20 at College Agriculture Garden, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola (M.S.).The experiment laid in Randomized Block Design with three replications thirteen treatments. results revealed that, yield paramet...

frost occurrence during plant growth created special conditions to evaluate the effects of planting date on dry matter content and agronomical characteristics of potato cultivars influenced by natural frost in field conditions. a split-plot experiment with three replications was carried out to compare three planting dates, as main plot, from 1 to 21 november with 10 day intervals and four culti...

The effects of irrigation and planting pattern on wheat in field conducted at Taian, northern China during 2011-12. The experiments consisted of two planting patterns (single and double rows) and two irrigation levels (0 and 180 mm) resulting in the same plant density (200 × 10 plant/ha). Each experiment plot was 3 m × 3 m in size and replicated thrice in split-plot design. During course of stu...

In Crocus vernus, a spring bulbous species, prolonged growth at low temperatures results in the development of larger perennial organs and delayed foliar senescence. Because corm growth is known to stop before the first visual sign of leaf senescence, it is clear that factors other than leaf duration alone determine final corm size. The aim of this study was to determine whether reduced growth ...

Neuropathic pain is still an extremely important problem in today's medicine because opioids, which are commonly used to reduce pain, have limited efficacy in this type of pathology. Therefore, complementary therapy is needed. Our experiments were performed in rats to evaluate the contribution of the purinergic system, especially P2X4 receptor (P2X4R), in the modulation of glia activation and, ...

Carbon monoxide (CO) generated by the enzyme heme oxygenase during the breakdown of heme is known to mediate a number of biological effects. Here, we investigated whether CO liberated from a water-soluble CO-releasing molecule (CO-RM) is capable of modulating leukocyte-endothelial interactions. Tricarbonylchoro(glycinato)ruthenium (II) (CORM-3), a fast CO releaser, proved to be anti-inflammator...

Explants of leaves, petals, anthers, styles and ovaries of C. speciosus, C. cancellatus, C. gilanicus and C. almehensis were cultured on LS media with three different combinations of NAA and BAP in the dark. Callus and neoformant organs (leaf and corm-like structure and ordinary and contractileroots) were fomd on some of these explants. Corm explants from these species were also cultured on...

agroforestry is one the aspects of sustainable agriculture in which multiple cropping of perennial trees in mixture with crops guarantees the environmental, economical and social sustainability in rural communities. high demands for forage in northern provinces of iran lead to agroforestry in citrus orchards as a potential mean for forage production through agroforestry systems. this research w...

Twenty-two cover crops were evaluated for their ability to reduce damage by root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne javanica, to taro, Colocastia esculenta, in a tropical cropping system. Cover crops were grown and incorporated into the soil before taro was planted. Barley, greenpanic, glycine, marigold, sesame, sunn hemp, and sorghum x sudangrass DeKalb ST6E were poor or nonhosts to the nematode as me...
