Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is a crop relatively tolerant to salt. The effect of different ratios of NaCl/KCl was studied in two cultivars (Hyola308 and Kristina) of Rapeseed in 2002. Canola seedlings were grown in Hoagland’s solutions, which were salinized by different ratios of NaCl/KCl. The treatments or KCl:NaCl ratios were 0:0 (control);10:10; 20:0 (Total Added Salt or TAS=20 mol.m-3), 0:...

Plants absorb nutrients needed for plant type, growing season, depending on soil and yield. Absorb of nutrient 30-90 percent depends management practices in the use of fertilizer. Can be used fertilizers in most cases soil and for foliar feeding can be quickly absorbed into the plant at the proper levels of nutrition in cucumber. In this experiment, was used a split plot in a randomized complet...

mycorrhizal symbiosis increase nutrient uptake and enhance plant growth by elaborating root system. the positive effects of mycorrhizal symbiosis on the growth, physiology and ecology of various plants have been recognized. the symbiotic relations between mycorrhizal fungi and date palm with regard to nutrient uptake by this plant have not yet been explored and studied in iran. this project was...

Allocation of limiting resources, such as nutrients, is an important adaptation strategy for plants. Plants may allocate different nutrients within a specific organ or the same nutrient among different organs. In this study, we investigated the allocation strategies of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in leaves, stems and roots of 126 shrub species from 172 shrubland communities in Northern Chin...

In this paper, we derive and analyze a mathematical model for the interactions between phytoplankton and zooplankton in a periodic environment, in which the growth rate and the intrinsic carrying-capacity of phytoplankton are changing with respect to time and nutrient concentration. A threshold value: "Predator's average growth rate" is introduced and it is proved that the phytoplankton-zooplan...

rapeseed (brassica napus l.) is a crop relatively tolerant to salt. the effect of different ratios of nacl/kcl was studied in two cultivars (hyola308 and kristina) of rapeseed in 2002. canola seedlings were grown in hoagland’s solutions, which were salinized by different ratios of nacl/kcl. the treatments or kcl:nacl ratios were 0:0 (control);10:10; 20:0 (total added salt or tas=20 mol.m-3), 0:...

vibrio cholerae is a human pathogen that causes mild to severe diarrheal illnesses and has major public health significance. the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of antimicrobial activity of the gold nanoparticles on vibrio cholera. gold and silver nanoparticles are chemically synthesized. standard strain of vibrio cholerawas cultured in a nutrient broth. minimum inhibitory conc...

A partial differential equation model is developed to understand the effect that nutrient and acidosis have on the distribution of proliferating and quiescent cells and dead cell material (necrotic and apoptotic) within a multicellular tumour spheroid. The rates of cell quiescence and necrosis depend upon the local nutrient and acid concentrations and quiescent cells are assumed to consume less...

Identifying the linkages between nutrient properties and plant size is important for reducing uncertainty in understanding the mechanisms of plant phenotypic plasticity. Although the positive effects of grazing exclusion on plant morphological plasticity has been well documented, surprisingly little is known about the relationship of nutrient strategies with plant shoot size after long-term gra...

A mathematical model of infiltrative tumour growth taking into account cell proliferation, death and motility is considered. The model is formulated in terms of local cell density and nutrient (oxygen) concentration. In the model the rate of cell death depends on the local nutrient level. Thus heterogeneous nutrient distribution in tissue affects tumour structure and development. The existence ...
