this experiment was conducted to study the effects of single and combined application of organic, biological and chemical fertilizers on qualitative and quantitative characteristics of vegetative part of coriander, (coriandrum sativum l.). the experiment was carried out as split plot in time based on complete randomized block design with three replications and 12 treatments at research station,...

damage caused by water shortages leads to physiological and biochemical changes in metabolism of plants and make them predispose to attack by pests and diseases and reduce the quality of the crops. in order to evaluate the effect of supplemental irrigation on safflower fly (a. helianthi) population of safflower cultivars, an experiment conducted as a split plot based on randomized complete bloc...

A high moisture level in the top 10 cm of soil at time of cutting of alfalfa increased the incidence of plant mortality and Fusarium wilt in soil infested with Ditylenchus dipsaci and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. medicaginis in greenhouse and field microplot studies. Ranger alfalfa, susceptible to both D. dipsaci and F. oxysporum f. sp. medicaginis, was less persistent than Moapa 69 (nematode susc...

Partial root-zone drying or partial root-zone irrigation is a newly proposed water saving technique which may improve water use efficiency and nutrient uptake by a crop without affecting its yield. A study was conducted to investigate the response of furrow-irrigated okra to partial root zone drying in relation to cropevapotranspiration (ETc), vegetative growth, yield, and nutrient use effi...

in order to study the effect of irrigation cut on dry matter remobilization and some of agronomy traits on spring barley, a field experiment was conducted by using a split-plot based on randomized complete block design (rcbd), in three replications, at agricultural and natural resource research center of ardebil, in 2009. irrigation treatments included normal irrigation (as local routine in pas...

in order to study the effect of deficit irrigation at reproductive growth stages on growth and grain yield of four sunflower cultivars namely: azargol, allstare, alison and euroflor, an experiment was conducted during the 2007 growing season at the experimental field of the agricultural faculty of bu-ali sina university. the experimental design was a split plot one, based upon a randomized comp...

this study was conducted to assess the effects of irrigation and plant growth promoting bactera on seed yield and qualitative characteristics of black cumin (nigella sativa l.) at the experimental station of the research institute of forest and rangeland, damavan region, iran. a split-plot experimental design, based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications, was used. i...

abstract in order to investigate the effects of different irrigation regimes on yield and yield components of three chickpea cultivars, an experiment was conducted during the 2007 growing season at mashhad. six irrigation regimes including i1= full irrigation, i2= irrigation at branching, i3= irrigation at flowering, i4= irrigation at pod formation, i5= irrigation at seed filling stage, and i6=...

The present work aimed at investigating changes in growth and some metabolic activities in NaCl-stressed bean plants, and assessing the role of ascorbic acid to alleviate these changes. The field experiment was carried out to study the response of presoaked fava bean seeds (Vicia fava cv. Misr 2) in freshly prepared ascorbic acid (50 ppm ≈ 0.3 mM; as recommended dose as described by  El-Tayeb, ...
