this research was conducted at the shahrood agricultural research center in 1382 and 1383 to study the effect of alternate furrow irrigation on potato yield and its economic evaluation. the experimental design was a randomize complete block design and the treatments were: every furrow irrigation (efi), fixed alternate furrow irrigation (fafi), variable alternate furrow irrigation (vafi), fixed ...

Limited water resources restrict winter wheat grain yield and quality in the Huang-Huai-Hai Plain of North China, and establishing optimal planting patterns according to crop water requirements is the key factor for achieving rational water use. In this paper, 4 planting patterns were applied, namely, uniform row (30 cm; traditional pattern), wide (40 cm)-narrow (20 cm) row, furrow (double line...

In the spherical cells of Escherichia coli rodA mutants, division is initiated at a single point, from which a furrow extends progressively around the cell. Using "giant" rodA ftsA cells, we confirmed that each new division furrow is initiated at the midpoint of the previous division plane and runs perpendicular to it.

vidence that the cytokinetic apparatus is dependent on spindle microtubules comes primarily from classical experiments in which the spindle was manually moved or disrupted. On page 91, Bement et al. reveal the physiology that underlies these findings. Active RhoA localizes to a narrow zone at the site of future furrow formation in a microtubule-dependent manner, and the RhoA zone moves in respo...

increasing the water use efficiency in crop production is an important issue today. an experiment was conducted in 2009 in order to evaluate the corn reaction to partial root zone drying at fars province. treatments consisted of four irrigation levels (control, alternative furrow irrigation during whole season, alternative furrow irrigation until flowering then full irrigation and full irrigati...

drip irrigation is the most efficient technique known for improving irrigation water management. a two-year study was conducted to determine the effects of drip and furrow irrigation methods on yield and quality of sugar beet in north of khuzestan. in the first year, the experimental design was a completely randomized block design with three replications. treatments were, three drip irrigation ...
