in order to evaluate the yield and advantage of two- and three-species intercropping of sunflower with corn and soybean, an experiment was conducted at the research farm of faculty of agriculture of tabriz university in tabriz, iran 2011. the experiment was arranged based on randomized completely block design with 6 treatments and three replications. treatments were included the pure stand of s...

Two studies were conducted to estimate nitrogen-corrected apparent metabolizable energy (AMEn) of different fat sources for broilers from 1 to 7 and 28 to 35 d of age. Corn-soybean meal diets with inclusions of 2, 4 and 8% degummed soybean oil (DSO), acidulated soybean soapstock (ASS), or pork lard (PL) (experiment 1) and coconut oil (CCO), palm oil (PO), or palm kernel oil (PKO) (experiment 2)...

in order to effects of fertilizer source and intercropping ratios on macronutrients concentration and uptake of fenugreek and black cumin, a factorial experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications at shahrekord university research farm in 2013. sole cropping of fenugreek (f) and sole cropping of black cumin (b) and three intercropping ratios (f:b 2:1, f:b ...

Abstract Angkak is one of the Monascus fermented products with rice as a substrate. In addition, Chinese yam, potatoes, soybean, ginseng and onions can be used substrate for fermentation by sp. It was known that product produces several bioactive compounds have antihyperlipidemic activity. These are monacolin-K pigment (monascin ankaflavin). Each these has different cholesterol inhibitory The p...

tion and nodulation, thus reducing N2 fixation capacity (Shibles, 1998). Application of N before planting or durNitrogen application during soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] ing the early growth stages can suppress the N2 fixation reproductive stages has the potential to increase soybean productivity. The objective of this study was to determine the impact of N fertilizer process. Fertilizer N...

yellow, and even drop. Other symptoms of direct feeding damage include plant stunting, poor pod fill, reduced Since 2000, the soybean aphid (Aphis glycines Matsumura) has pod and seed counts, smaller seed size, and nutrient become a major pest of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] in North America. In the USA, there are currently no commercial soybean deficiencies resulting in overall yield and q...

Nitrate nitrogen losses through subsurface drainage and crop yield are determined by multiple climatic and management variables. The combined and interactive effects of these variables, however, are poorly understood. Our objective is to predict crop yield, nitrate concentration, drainage volume, and nitrate loss in subsurface drainage from a corn (Zea mays L.) and soybean (Glycine max (L.) Mer...

The physical characteristics, chemical composition, and nutritional value of distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) from seven beverage alcohol and two fuel alcohol manufacturers were evaluated in studies with chicks and pigs. Color scores of the DDGS ranged from very light to very dark and odor scores ranged from normal to burnt or smoky. The DDGS ranged from 23.4 to 28.7% CP, 2.9 to 12....

Soybean (Glycine max L.) is an important source of protein for human and animal nutrition, as well as a major source of vegetable oil. The soybean crop requires adequate water all through its growth period to attain its yield potential, and the lack of soil moisture at critical stages of growth profoundly impacts the productivity. In this study, utilizing (1)H NMR-based metabolite analysis comb...

Nodulation is the result of a symbiosis between legumes and rhizobial bacteria in soil. This symbiosis is mutually beneficial, with the bacteria providing a source of nitrogen to the host while the plant supplies carbon to the symbiont. Nodule development is a complex process that is tightly regulated in the host plant cell through networks of gene expression. In order to examine this regulatio...
