Inorganic fertilizers containing ammoniacal nitrogen or formulations releasing this form of N in the soil are most effective for suppressing nematode populations. Anhydrous ammonia has been shown to reduce soil populations of Tylenchorhynchus claytoni, Helicotylenchus dihystera, and Heterodera glycines. The rates required to obtain significant suppression of nematode populations are generally i...

Background & Aim:Peppermint known for its healing properties is a plant from the Labiatae family. Currently, different rates of nitrogenous fertilizers are used in production of peppermint while there is no precise information available about how much of nitrogen fertilizer is the optimum rate for this plant. The main purpose of this research was to evaluate the response of pep...

A field experiment was conducted to assess the effect of farmyard (cattle) manure (FYM) and inorganic nitrogen (N) phosphorus (P) fertilizers on growth and tuber yield of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). The treatments consisted of factorial combination of 4 levels of FYM (0. 10, 20 and 30 t h-1) and three levels of inorganic NP fertilizers (0, 33.3%, 66.6% recommended rates) laid out in a Random...

aimed at reducing the consumption of chemical fertilizers on crop production and according to important role of micro-nutrients such as iron, on increase performance of these products, nanocomposites effect of iron on yield and yield components of wax bean genotypes inoculated with rhizobium bacteria during experimental factorial randomized complete block design with three replications was cond...

dissolved organic nitrogen (don) is an important constituent of dissolved organic matter (dom). it has a considerable effect on total dissolved soil nitrogen and it is very important as a nitrogen source of many aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. dissolved inorganic nitrogen, which is another form of total soil dissolved nitrogen, includes no3, no2 and nh4, which is very important for plant nu...

in order to investigate the effects of different levels of nitrogen and phosphorous fertilizers on flower yield , yield components and some quality components of german chamomile, a factorial experiment based on a randomized complete block design with four replications was carried out in the medicinal plant research farm of shirvan college of agriculture during growing season of 2007-2008. nitr...

introduction: in iran, tuberose is ranked the forth after gladiolus, rose and carnation. these flowers are known as high quality products among which maximum exportation belongs to tuberose and gladiolus. in plant cultivation and development, adequate provision of nutrients is of crucial importance. tuberose needs plenty of nutrients to obtain the desirable quality and flowering. hence, tuberos...

INTRODUCTION Industrial nitrogen fixation plays an important role in sustaining approximately 40% of the Earth’s population through generation of synthetic fertilizers. Annually, ca. 500 million tons of anhydrous ammonia, ammonium nitrate, and urea are produced through the Haber-Bosch process, which requires harsh conditions (200 atm, 450-500C) and affords low yields 10-20%. It has been estimat...

This research set out to evaluate the effect of combined biological and chemical nitrogen fertilizers on some corn hybrids. To this end an experiment was conducted as split plot on the basis of randomized complete block design with four replications. Main plots were included: use of chemical and biological fertilizers in four levels: 100% chemical fertilizer, 75% chemical fertilizer + 100% bio-...
