in order to study effects of application time of chevalier herbicide and integrate of illoxan with granstar on wheat and weed inahwaz, an experiment was conducted in ramin agriculture and natural resources university during 2007-2008, in split plot design by randomized complete blocks design with four replications. experimental factors was chevalier and integrate of granstar and illoxan herbici...

the first step to quantify crop phenology is precise estimation of the parameters, which affect it. these parameters are mainly temperature and photoperiod. this study was conducted with eight sowing dates to quantify response of stem elongation rate (ser) to temperature and photoperiod in wheat (tajan cultivar). the regression models fitted to ser against temperature were flat, logistic, quadr...

A field experiment was conducted over 2 years to evaluate the gas exchange, water relations and water use efficiency (WUE) of wheat under different water stress and nitrogen management practices at Crop Physiology Research Area, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad. Pakistan. Four irrigation levels, i.e. one irrigation (Irrigation at tillering stage), two irrigations (Irrigations at tillering ...

The mechanism for elongation catalyzed by human RNA polymerase II (RNAP II) has been analyzed using millisecond phase transient state kinetics. Here, we apply a running start, two-bond, double-quench protocol. Quenching the reaction with EDTA indicates NTP loading into the active site followed by rapid isomerization. HCl quenching defines the time of phosphodiester bond formation. Model-indepen...

Preharvest conditions, including photoperiod and irrigation regime, affect the keeping quality of long stem roses (Rosa x hybrida). Rose plants cultivar ‘Charming Black’ were subjected to four different treatments investigate how nocturnal supplemental lighting regimes influence post-harvest performance. Vase life, ornamental quality, water balance, petal color, vacuolar pH, soluble sugar conte...

the wheat straw as abundant lignocellulosic resource was successfully undergone in a benzylation reaction and plasticized with different contents (2.5, 3, 5 and 7 wt. %) of glycerol and stearic acid.the effect of type and concentration of plasticizers on the mechanical, thermomechanical, morphological and water absorption properties of benzylated wheat straw (bws) was investigated by tensile, d...

the effect of dry material, glycerol and ratio of water to seed in alyssum homalocarpum films on their thickness, transparency, moisture content, tensile strength, elongation and water vapor permeability was investigated using mixture response surface methods. dry material and glycerol were important factors influencing tensile strength, elongation and water vapor permeability. ratio of water t...

This study combines existing hydraulic principles with recently developed methods for probing leaf hydraulic function to determine whether xylem physiology can explain the dynamic response of gas exchange both during drought and in the recovery phase after rewatering. Four conifer species from wet and dry forests were exposed to a range of water stresses by withholding water and then rewatering...

Soybean is an important crop worldwide. Soybean cultivars differ in their sensitivity to soil salinity and herbicide damage. In these experiments, we examined the impact of salinization and herbicide (imazethapyr and chlorimuron) application on the growth and yield of two soybean cultivars, Essex and Manokin. Experiments were conducted in small pots in the greenhouse, in outdoor sand cultures, ...
