Two experiments were conducted to characterize changes associated with ontogenetic aging in coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) and to identify possible maturation "markers" for this species. In the first experiment (Experiment 1), scions of ages 1, 4 and 9 years were collected from four seed zones in field progeny tests and grafted onto 1-year-old rootstocks. In Experime...

oil has an important role in human food. an experiment was conducted in order to evaluate the response of spring genotypes of safflower to irrigation disruption in reproductive growth different stages, in a spilt plot arrangement based on randomized complete block design with four replications at research farm, faculty of agriculture, university of birjand during 2008. irrigation regimes (full ...

A series of experiments was carried out at Students Farm, Sindh Agriculture University, Tandojam to evaluate the effect of NPK, micronutrients and N-placement on the growth and yield of sunflower during 2005-2006. The sunflower cv. HO-1 was studied under 7 different NPK levels and placement methods (0-0-0 NPK kg ha, 6030-30 NPK kg ha (N as broadcast), 60-30-30 NPK kg ha (N as fertigation), 90-4...

safflower as an original crop in iran has high adaptability to different environmental conditions. iran is one of the original areas of safflower as a drought and salinity tolerant crop. therefor, safflower can be a suitable alternative crop for cultivation in marginal areas. the aims of research were studying the late season drought effects on seed and oil yields and its components of fall saf...

in order to evaluate the effects of biofertilizer on soybean (glycine max l.) seed vigor that produced under water deficit condition and related traits, an experiment was conducted in a factorial layout based of complete randomized block design with four replications at the research greenhouse of aboureihan campus- tehran university, iran. experimental treatments were include biofertilizer (see...

in order to determine the effect of valsalva maneuver and head rotation on the internal jugular vein (ijv) diameter and cross-sectional area and overlap with the carotid artery (ca) and find the best technique for safe cannulation of the ijv and decrease the risk of ca puncture, the diameter of both the ijv and the ca and percentage of overlap between the two vessels and cross-sectional area of...

Pistacia vera L. is a decidious tree. To investigate the influence of soaking seeds in polyamines (PAs) spermine (Spm), spermidine (Spd) and putrescine (Put) on seed germination and enhancing lateral root development of ‘Ghazvini’ pistachio seedling rootstock, the experiment were carried out in petri dishes and plastic bags. Seeds were soaked in PAs( Spd, Spm, and Put) at three concentrations( ...

abstract soil beneficial microorganisms such as plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) are able to enhance plant growth. the research was conducted using a randomized complete block design as split plot factorial with three factors (nutrient management, azospirillum and azotobacter strains) .in this experiment the effect of azospirillum and azotobacter inoculation on yield and yield compon...
