The 6-year effects of urea (46--) and ammonium nitrate (AN; 34--) fertilizers, applied alone and in combination with other nutrients, on tree growth and foliar nutrition were evaluated in a -year-old, thinned lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta Dougl. var. latifolia Engelm.) stand in central British Columbia. Results indicate that lodgepole pine has no clear preference for a particular nitroge...

to evaluate the effect of nano-iron chelate and also to make a comparison with effect of eddha iron chelate on saffron, an experiment was conducted as factorial based on a randomized complete block design with six treatments and three replications in shahed university, tehran in 2011 and 2012. treatments included iron fertilizer (nano chelate and common chelate) in three levels (zero, 450 and 9...

salinity tolerance is one of the most important affecting factors on agricultural production in arid and semi-arid areas. in order to study the effects of saline and fresh water irrigation with application of organic and npk fertilizers on cumin, a split plot experiment based on randomized complete block design was carried out with three replications during 2011 and 2012, at the research farm o...

in order to effects of sulfur and manure on grain yield, yield components, and some physiological traits of corn hybrid ksc 704 in calcareous soils of kermanshah province, a factorial experiment was carried out based on a randomized complete block design with three replications. sulfur fertilizer in four levels 0, 250, 500 and 750 kg ha-1 and manure in four levels 0, 4, 8 and 12 t ha-1 were app...

in order to study the effect of solitary and combined application of two types of green manure, cow manure, barvar-2 phosphate fertilizer and conventional chemical fertilizer on some of the qualitative and quantitativeproperties of sugar beet, an experiment was conducted at the research farm of shahrekord university in 2013. the experimental design was randomized in a complete block design with...

abstract in order to investigate the effect of biofertilizer, chemical fertilizer and plant density on yield and corm criteria of saffron, an experiment was conducted as complete randomized block design in a factorial arrangement with three replications under field condition in agricultural college, ferdowsi university of mashhad during 3 years of 2007,2008,2009. treatments included nitroxin bi...

in order to investigation the effects of different combination and amount of chemical, biological and organic manure in present of water absorbent materials on some phenological, morphological and yield of soybean, a field study was carried out gorgan region climate conditions in a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications. in this experiment two lev...

We established Populus deltoides Bartr. stands differing in nitrogen (N) availability and tested if: (1) N-induced carbon (C) allocation could be explained by developmental allocation controls; and (2) N uptake per unit root mass, i.e., specific N-uptake rate, increased with N availability. Closely spaced (1 x 1 m) stands were treated with 50, 100 and 200 kg N ha(-1) year(-1) of time-release ba...

In order to evaluate the variations of some morphological traits, yield, seed yield components and essential oil yield of German Chamomile under different application levels of nitrogen (N) and biofertilizers, a split plot experiment laid out in a randomized complete blocks design with three replications in Shar-e-Ray (Gale No) region. Chemical N fertilizer application in three levels (0, 65 an...

The industrial production and use of nitrogenous fertilizer involves significant environmental and economic costs. Strategies to reduce fertilizer dependency are required to address the world's increasing demand for sustainable food, fibers, and biofuels. Biological nitrogen fixation, a process unique to diazatrophic bacteria, is catalyzed by the nitrogenase complex, and reconstituting this fun...
