although micronutrients effect on growth and yield of different plants has been intensively investigated, but there is limited information on its effect on grain yield and seed oil content of pot marigold) calendula officinalis l.). in order to investigate the effects of micronutrients (fe, zn and mn) spraying on yield and yield components and seed oil of pot marigold, a field experiment was co...

Bu çalışmanın amacı, ayçiçeği hatlarının demir beslenme kabiliyetleri yönünden gruplandırılması ve bu hatların en iyi özelliklerinin belirlenmesidir. amaçla, 445 g kuvars kumu ortamına % 5,6 CaCO3 olacak şekilde her saksıya 25 uygulanmıştır. Denemede pH’sı 6,0’a ayarlı demirsiz besin çözeltisi aşağıdaki konsantrasyonlarda hazırlanmıştır. 0,75 mM K2SO4; 2,0 Ca(NO3)2.4H2O; 1,0 MgSO4.7H2O; 0,25 KH...

Studies were carried out to elucidate the nature and importance of Fe reduction in anaerobic slurries of marine surface sediment. A constant accumulation of Fe took place immediately after the endogenous NO(3) was depleted. Pasteurized controls showed no activity of Fe reduction. Additions of 0.2 mM NO(3) and NO(2) to the active slurries arrested the Fe reduction, and the process was resumed on...

Compressive behaviour of bovine cancellous bone and three open-cell metallic foams (AlSi7Mg (30 ppi and 45 ppi); CuSn12Ni2 (30 ppi)) has been studied using mechanical testing, micro-focus computed tomography and finite element modelling. Whilst the morphological parameters of the foams and the bone appear to be similar, the mechanical properties vary significantly between the foams and the bone...

[1] During austral summer 2003, we tracked a patch of surface water infused with the tracer sulfur hexafluoride, but without addition of Fe, through subantarctic waters over 10 days in order to characterize and quantify algal Fe pools and fluxes to construct a detailed biogeochemical budget. Nutrient profiles characterized this patch as a highnitrate, low-silicic acid, low-chlorophyll (HNLSiLC)...

Rapid startup of microbial fuel cells (MFCs) and other bioreactors is desirable when treating wastewaters. The startup time with unamended wastewater (118 h) was similar to that obtained by adding acetate or fumarate (110-115 h), and less than that with glucose (181 h) or Fe(III) (353 h). Initial current production took longer when phosphate buffer was added, with startup times increasing with ...

1. Serum prealbumin, transferrin and iron concentrations were measured in ninety-two north Cameroonian children under 5 years of age. The results were grouped according to the blood haemoglobin concentration range in order to show the interactions of anaemia with prealbumin and transferrin concentrations. 2. Transferrin concentration showed a significant negative correlation with serum Fe and p...

sunflower (helianthus annus l.) is the most important between oil plants in iran. the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of micronutrients application on the sunflower yield under drought stress. this experiment was carried out at golmakan agriculture research station (iran) in 2005 that using a split plot randomized complete block design with four replications. irrigation was ...

OBJECTIVE To (i) evaluate food choices and consumption patterns of elementary- and middle-school students who participate in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) and (ii) compare students' average nutrient intake from lunch with NSLP standards. DESIGN Plate waste from elementary- and middle-school students' lunch trays was measured in autumn 2010 using a previously validated digital photo...
