The aim of current study was to determine intercropping forage turnip “FT” with cereals “C” (barley, “B”, wheat “W” and oat “O”) for herbage yield competitive ratios in Bilecik conditions 2019-2002 2020-2021 growing periods. Plants were sown as sole 3 different mixtures (75FT+25C%, 50FT+50C% 25FT+75C %). Experiments arranged a randomized complete block design three replications. In the study, y...

The purpose of this study was to develop substrates with little or no peat by combining coir-based growing media municipal compost and/or acacia biochar, two locally produced renewable resources, and assess their effects on lettuce seedling emergence growth, as well content in photosynthetic pigments total phenols. Two experiments were carried out, the first six mixes using biochar blended perl...

Work on energy use in buildings – in university research, professional practice and government – has tended to draw a broad distinction between ‘the domestic stock’ and ‘the non-domestic stock’. A further tendency has been to focus attention on types of non-domestic buildings devoted to single uses (e.g. offices, shops or hospitals). This paper reports an empirical research programme in which t...

Abstract. The phase behaviour of aerosol particles plays a profound role in atmospheric physicochemical processes, influencing their physical and optical properties further impacting climate air quality. However, understanding the state is still incomplete, especially that multicomponent which contain inorganic compounds secondary organic (SOA) from mixed volatile compound (VOC) precursors. We ...

The performance of Vicia sativa L. cultivars and cultivar mixtures used as green manure under two seed rates in a Mediterranean environment was investigated split plot design, over the period 2014–2016. Six common vetch grown pure stands or were established at (S1 = 100 Kg ha−1 S2 180 kg ha−1). Growth traits (e.g., plant height, biomass yield, LAI, CGR) monitored until incorporation into topsoi...

Herein, carbon dots (CDs) as biocompatible, fluorescent carbon-based nanomaterials were synthesized from papaya seed waste renewable sources for the first time via a facile acid pyrolysis method. The seed-derived CDs showed blue fluorescence emission under UV light (365 nm) with quantum yield of 2.74%, and contained oxygen-, nitrogen- containing functional groups. Due to their surface functiona...

Nowadays, consumers are paying more and attention to healthy eating, unfortunately, insulin resistance type 2 diabetes affecting many people. In general, people the consumption of fibre-rich foods. our study, we developed high-fibre ready-to-bake flour mixture blends using purple wheat (white wholemeal). For fibre fortification, inulin, chia seed psyllium husk were used. After determining basic...

In this contribution, two approaches are followed to predict the saturated liquid density of liquefied natural gas (LNG) mixtures. In one approach, 12 cubic equations of state (EoSs), comprising the popular Peng-Robinson (PR) and Redlich-Kwong-Soave (RKS), are employed to predict the saturated liquid density of 20 LNG mixtures. In the other approach, these EoS are used in conjunction with a rec...

This study was conducted to determine the effects of pesticide mixtures on degradation patterns of parent compounds as well as effects on soil microbial respiration. Bioavailability of residues to sensitive plant species was also determined. Soil for this study was obtained from a pesticide-contaminated area within an agrochemical dealer site. Degradation patterns were not affected by the prese...

The effect of species richness and spatial aggregation on the stability of community productivity in response to drought perturbation was investigated with experimental plant communities. Communities comprising all singleand three-species combinations of the ruderal species, Capsella bursa-pastoris, Tripleurospermum inodorum, Poa annua, and Stellaria media, were established in glasshouse. Habit...
