Background: Essential oil content and composition in medicinal and aromatic plants is highly affected by both biotic and abiotic factors. Objective: To investigate the effects of drought stress, zeolite and bio-fertilizers on morphological characteristics and essential oil constituents in Dracocephalum moldavica L. Methods: This experiment was conducted in the form of split factorial based on...

The occurrence of mycorrhiza in 40 selected medicinal plants was studied. The percentage of mycorrhizal colonization in each of the plant was calculated. The colonization was found to be very less in four plants and very high in six plants. All others showed a moderate level of colonization. The present work suggests the use of mycorrhiza as a biofertilizer to enhance the growth and yield of me...

nowadays, organic fertilizers play an important role in agriculture. they are progressively substituting chemical fertilizers to prevent their harmful impact on human health and the environment. they provide high yield, better quality products and a shorter period of harvesting crops. in this study, the mineral elements: primary macronutrient (n, po3- and k+), secondary macronutrient: (ca2+, mg...

Abstract Coffee is a plantation crop that has high economic value. One of the obstacles in cultivation coffee plants attack plant parasitic nematodes, including Pratylenchus coffeae, Radopholus similis , and Meloidogyne spp. The reported nematode control technologies are implementation organic fertilizers, botanical pesticides, biological agents. This study aimed to determine effect fertilizer,...

Abstract Biochar application can improve soil properties. It use is supposed to enhance the effectiveness of BiO 2 -biofilm biofertilizer in supporting rice growth and yield. The aim this research was obtain best combination treatment biochar for yields. experiment conducted greenhouse using plastic pot with a split plot design three replications. main concentration (0 100 %), sub dose (0;15 30...

One of ways to increase resistance agricultural plants abiotic stresses is the use biofertilizers with anti-stress and growth-regulating properties. They improve absorption nitrogen phosphorus from organic fertilizers soil. The purpose research was study sowing qualities seeds, morphological indicators spring barley seedlings after presowing seed treatment under conditions sufficient humidifica...

recently, biofertilizer application is growing to meet sustainable agriculture goals. the present experiment was designed to evaluate four nitrogen levels (0, 60, 90 and 120 kg n.ha-1) as main plots, two supernitroplus biofertilizer levels) with and without biofertilizer) as sub-plots on yield and yield components of three sesame cultivars (naz, oltan and varamin (as sub-sub-plots in a split-sp...

Background & Aim: Cassia angustifolia Vahl is a valuable medicinal plant that it is important for constipation treatment. According to the importance of organic agriculture in increasing the yield of medicinal plants, the effect of bio-fertilizer on quantities yields of Cassia angustifolia Vahl or Senna in Karaj region (Iran) was examined. Experimental: This research was carr...
