in this research, the effects of split application of nitrogen fertilizer on yield and yield component of three varieties of corn have been investigated. for this purpose, a split plot experiment on the base of randomized complete blocks in four replications was used. the main plots were three varieties of corn (370, 447 and 499), and sub plots were six split application of urea fertilizer trea...

Phosphite (Phi) has been recommended to enhance plant resistance against Phytophthora spp. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of calcium phosphite (PhiCa) and potassium phosphite (PhiK) under field conditions, taking into account physiological parameters, performance and protection against late blight in the foliage of two potato cultivars, and comparing these results to contr...

Cropping systems in farmland areas of Iran are characterized by continuous cultivation of crops with consumption of chemical fertilizers leading to serious soil erosion and fertility decline. Information regarding the simultaneous evaluation of crop rotation and fertilization on the canola traits is not available. Therefore, an experiment was conducted during 2007 2010. Experimental designs wer...
