In order to study the effect of silver nanoparticles and magnetic field on Raphanus sativus. experiments were carried out with four treatments in 10 days. Treatments were including (CON) control, (MF) magnetic field with B=1.8 mT for 1h per day in 10 days, (SNPs) silver nanoparticles (50 ppm), (MF+SNPs) magnetic field plus silver nanoparticles. Results showed that silver nanoparticles (SNPs) ha...

The study aimed to appraise the effect of different air pollutants viz. SO2, NOx, SPM and RSPM on biophysiological as well as yield characteristics of wheat and mustard plants grown at different sites in the urban and industrial areas of Haridwar City. The ambient levels of air pollutants were lowest at site 2 and 4 and hence these sites were treated as control sites for comparing the response ...

Crop plants are negatively affected by heavy metals. Chromium is also a metal that harms crops. This study aims to examine the effects of several chromium treatments on germination and physiological processes barley seedlings. A Petri culture experiment was performed accomplish this purpose. In experiment, sterilized seeds were sown in dishes lined with Whatman No. 1 filter paper triplicate. Fi...

A study was undertaken to evaluate the genetic parameters and correlation between root shoot traits in 50 upland rice genotypes of Manipur along with 3 checks for drought tolerance. The highest GCV PCV values were recorded Root fresh weight 42% 41.9% controlled 34% 33.7% stressed conditions. This followed by dry (35.29% & 34.79% 25.2% 23.97%) conditions, respectively. estimates heritability obs...

the present study was designed to evaluate the drought tolerance of new sugar beet monogerm hybrids using polyethylene glycol 6000, under in vitro condition. the experiment was carried out as a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with four replications in sugar beet seed institute, karaj in 2013. 23 new sugar beet monogerm hybrids with two tolerant and normal controls wer...

russian knapweed (acroptilon repens l.) is a perennial weed of aceraceae that is becoming a dominant weed in suitable conditions. in order to find an ecological non-chemical approach for controlling russian knapweed and studying the possibility of using flower-eater mite (aceria acroptiloni shevchenko & kacalev) (acari: eriophyidae), a series of studies including field survey and field experime...

This study was conducted Razakı grape variety (Vitis vinifera L.) and its vine which was aged 19 was grown on 5 BB rootstock in a vegetation period of 2014 in Afyon province in Turkey. In this research, it was investigated whether the applications of Control (C), 1/3 Cluster Tip Reduction (1/3 CTR), Shoot Tip Reduction (STR), 1/3 CTR + STR, Boric Acid (BA), 1/3 CTR + BA, STR + BA, 1/3 CTR + STR...

Root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita, is one of the main problems in vegetable-growing regions, decreasing yield quality and quantity worldwide. Root-knot nematode management tactics mostly involve chemical control which is a threat to the environment, consequences to human health. Biological control of nematodes is considered to be one of the best alternatives to the chemical control. In ...
