abstract petroleum pollution is one of the most common and dangerous pollutions that is due to petroleum industries such as refineries, and consequently of oil pipes and tanks leak causing environmental pollutions. one of the newest born technologies in this area is phytoremediation, in which plants are used for decreasing of petroleum pollution. this technology is used for remediation of soil,...

Fish stocks can be defined by differences in their distribution, life history, and genetics. Managing fish based on stock structure is integral to successful management of a species because fishing may affect stocks disproportionately. Genetic and environmental differences can affect the shape and growth of otoliths and these differences may be indicative of stock structure. To investigate the ...

Aim of the study: To evaluate consequences for pork quality traits replacing soybean meal with Narbon vetch in pig diets.Area Castilla-Leon, Spain.Material and methods: 48 Duroc × Iberian barrows were fed diets 0% (V0), 5% (V5), 10% (V10) 20% (V20) inclusion vetch.

Mixed cropping systems can constitute important agroecological adaptation strategies for enhancing crop growth and productivity in view of climate change, while reducing the need synthetic fertilizers providing ecosystem services. The aim this study was to investigate growth, competitiveness, two forage mixtures combining triticale (X triticosecale Wittmack) common vetch (Vicia sativa L.), fenu...

There are many different practices that contribute to conservation biological control, but little is known about their complementarity. We tested the effects of providing food and alternative hosts parasitoids by intercropping a plum orchard with companion plants. Oats vetch were intercropped into either as single-species (oats or vetch) two-species combined) intercrops within an inter-row. The...

leach into groundwater after crop harvest in the fall, and depending on the species, can sequester atmospheric C Biculture legume–cereal cover cropping may enhance aboveand and/or N, thereby reducing the amount of N fertilizer belowground biomass yields and C and N contents. The increase in C and N supply to the soil has the potential to improve soil quality required for summer crops (Hargrove,...
