effects of drought stress and chemical treatments was studied on growth and developmental traits of four barley cultivars using a split- split plot design (rcbd) in agricultural research farm, kerman university in 2013-14. main plots consisted of irrigation (control and drought stress after flowering), sub-plots consisted of four barley cultivars (ʻnosratʼ, ʻafsalʼ, ʻyousofʼ and ʻuh12 lineʼ) an...

Identification of salt tolerant barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) genotypes and effects of different levels of salinity on their growth, grain development and yield were studied. One hundred and eighty nine barley germplasms were subjected in five levels of NaCl concentration which were equivalent to Electrical Conductivity (EC) of 0, 10, 15, 20 and 25 ds/m. Among the genotypes 39 proved to be saline...

The present study shows that barley straw (Hordeum vulgare) can be a supplementary raw material of softwoods and hardwoods such as Pinus sylvestris and Eucalyptus camaldulensis, respectively, for the production of cellulose and paper, reducing an agricultural residue that has no added value. Barley straw has a lower content of cellulose at 36.4% than P. sylvestris and E. camaldulensis, but it c...

BACKGROUND Although lovastatin production has been reported for different microorganism species, there is limited information about lovastatin production by basidiomycetes. AIMS The optimization of culture parameters that enhances lovastatin production by Omphalotus olearius OBCC 2002 was investigated, using statistically based experimental designs under solid state fermentation. METHODS Th...

Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects winter crops and soybean management systems on Pratylenchus brachyurus Helicotylenchus dihystera populations, in a naturally infested site, south-central region state Paraná, Brazil. experiment carried out during two crop years (2017/2018 2018/2019). Barley or black oat (winter crops) (summer crop) were treated with chemical biolog...

Plant fructosyltransferases are highly homologous in primary sequence and typically consist of two subunits but catalyze widely different reactions. Using functional expression in the yeast Pichia pastoris, we show that the substrate specificity of festuca sucrose:sucrose 1--beta-D-fructosyltransferase (1-SST) and barley sucrose:fructan 6--beta-D-fructosyltransferase (6-SFT) is entirely determi...

Aim: This experiment was conducted to determine the effects of incorporation these two cereals on zootechnical performances, biochemical profile, characteristics carcass and consumable offal chickens. Methods: 318 broiler chicks (day-old) were divided into 3 lots. In group "barley", maize partially replaced by crushed barley during three conventional rearing phases, they are 31%, 32% 35% respec...

in order to investigate the response of cotton cultivars (gossypium hirsutum l.) to conventional-cropping and double-cropping systems a field experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized completely block design with three replications at gonabad agriculture and natural resources research station during growing season of 2009-2010. the treatments included of recommended planting da...
