the objective of this study was to determine the quicker response of subsoil or surface soil to minimum tillage (mt) and conventional tillage (ct) and biofertilizers (bacillus coagulans, b), phosphorus fertilization (p) and integrated p and b (pb) under the wheat (triticum aestivum l vr. sardari) growing season. the experimental design was split plot laid out in randomized complete block design...

The authors showed that a rotary plow deepened the arable layer and destroyed bottom, simultaneously crushed plant residues, green manure crops embedded them in soil upper was active for cultivated plants roots microorganisms, which allowed providing with available nutrients, maintained fertility increased soybeans yield. ( Research purpose ) To determine deepener rotor agrotechnical parameters...

PURPOSE Ion chamber dosimetry is being used to calibrate dose for cell irradiations designed to investigate photoactivated Auger electron therapy at the Louisiana State University Center for Advanced Microstructures and Devices (CAMD) synchrotron facility. This study performed a dosimetry intercomparison for synchrotron-produced monochromatic x-ray beams at 25 and 35 keV. Ion chamber depth-dose...

Long-term tillage negatively affects soil aggregation, but little is known about the short-term effects of tillage. We investigated the effects of intensive tillage (moldboard plowing) and conservation tillage (chisel plowing) on aggregate breakage during tillage in a long-term study located in the semiarid Ebro river valley (NE Spain). The type of tillage resulted in different soil aggregate d...

the effects of environmental factors on germination and emergence of hoary cress seeds were examined in laboratory and field experiments. germinability of hoary cress under light/dark conditions (90%) was significantly higher than when seeds were incubated under continuous dark (78%). hoary cress could germinate in a broad range of temperatures (15/6, 20/10, 25/15, 30/15, and 35/20?c). the germ...

laboratory and greenhouse experiments were conducted to determine the effects of drought and salinity stress, temperature, ph and soil depth on rye germination and emergence in gorgan university of agricultural science and natural resources. optimum temperature for germination between 25 to 34.51   oc and base and ceiling temperatures were estimated as 3.3 and 40   oc, respectively. this volunt...

Clear Lake is on Iowa's list of impaired water bodies because of high P concentration. This study assessed soil-test phosphorus (STP), management practices, and P loads from its agricultural watershed. Management practice histories and STP for eight basins were surveyed in 1999. Soil samples (15-cm depth) were analyzed for STP with agronomic [Bray P1 (BP), Olsen (OP), Mehlich 3 (M3P) and enviro...

Recent studies of SOC storage and turnover have employed 13C natural abundance ( 13C) as an in situ Soil organic carbon (SOC) is sensitive to management of tillage, marker of relic and recent SOC pools. Mass concentraresidue (stover) harvest, and N fertilization in corn (Zea mays L.), tions of SOC and the 13C signature are sufficient to but little is known about associated root biomass includin...
