In order to investigate the effect of different levels of biological fertilizers on potato performance (cv. Marfona), an experiment was carried out as strip plot based on RCB design with 3 replications in 2011 at Isfahan. Treatments included Nitrocara at 4 levels (0: control, 220, 330 and 440 ml.ha-1) as a first factor and Nitroxin+ Phosphate at 4 levels (0+0: control, 20+100, 30+150...

A field experiment was conducted in the Agricultural Research Station, at El-Ghoraieb, Assiut to study dry seed yield performance of two locally adapted cultivars (‘Azmerly’ and ‘Cream 7’) and two line introductions (IT81D-1032 and IT82D-812) of common cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp) grown at three different within-row spaces (20, 30 and 40 cm) and two planting dates in the summer (April 1...

identification of quantitative trait loci is one of the important issues in breeding program especially under stress condition. plant material in the present study was a natural population including 72 tobacco genotypes. in order to apply osmotic stress, mannitol with 0.33 molar concentrations was used. the genotyping of individual were performed using 21 out of 35 primer combinations of aflp m...

in order to evaluate the effect of different sources and rates of nitrogen the growth and biomass production of purslane, a randomized complete block design was conducted with three replications at the agricultural research farm of shahrekord university in 2012. fertilization treatments were consisted of control (no n amendment), 30 and 90 kg n ha-1in the form of urea fertilizer, 30 and 90 kg n...

Composite pins of rubber dust collected from tyre retreading centres of trucks, cars and buses etc.and epoxy with weight percentages of 10. 15, and 20 % of rubber (weight fractions of 9, 13 and 17 % respectively) have been prepared in house with the help of a split wooden mould. The pins were tested in a pin-on-disc wear monitor to determine the co-efficient of friction and weight losses with v...

crisis due to global warming and its associated damaging consequences, including salinity, it is essential to develop plant resistance to salinity level. in this study, an experiment was conducted using different levels of salinity (0.05, 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2% sodium chloride) had on rosa hybrida, as the most important cut flowers in the world. results showed that by increasing of salinity, sodium...

Predicting Aboveground Biomass Increment (ABI) of forests is important in evaluating primary productivity, and hence aboveground C sequestration rate and C policy implementation. Although there are direct methods such as remote sensing to predict the ABI, it is important to develop ground-based indirect methods, particularly for tropical forests, due to their stratification, complex structure a...
