The effects of potassium fertilizer (K2SO4) levels K0, (0), K1,(150) and K2,(250 kg/ha) in two species of Brassica napus (Hyola 401 Hybrid) and Brassica juncea (landrace cultivar), under three irrigation regimes, control (irrigation after 50%,), moderate stress, (irrigation after 70%), and severe stress (irrigation after 90% soil water depletion) were studied in a factorial experiment laid out ...

Water plays a crucial role in maintaining plant functionality and drives many ecophysiological processes. The distribution of water resources is continuous change due to global warming affecting the productivity ecosystems around globe, but there lack non-destructive methods capable monitoring leaf content that would help us understanding consequences redistribution water. We studied utilizatio...

Salinity is the second major obstacle after drought conditions that hinder high productivity of plants. Many factors contribute to salinity problem, consequently affects plant physiology, growth as well production. Therefore, this research aims determine effects betaine-rich Nano fertilizer on physiological parameters sweet corn (Z. mays var. saccharata) and A. thaliana under salt stress. In st...

The effectiveness of residential substance abuse treatment for women was examined using data from the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment’s Residential Women and Children/Pregnant and Postpartum Women (RWC/PPW) Cross-Site Study and two other recent national This study was supported under contract 270-97-7030 from the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT), Substance Abuse and Mental Healt...

In this paper, we discuss a method for extracting refrained phrases from a music signal by a discrete knowledge discovery processing approach instead of a signal processing approach. The proposed method consists of two processes: translating a music signal into a sequence of events that represent pitch information, and then mining the frequent patterns from the event sequences. The former is pe...

The objective of the Robot Work Crew (RWC) project is to investigate key challenges in multi-robot coordination when performing tightly coupled coordination tasks such as transporting and handling of long objects on challenging planetary terrain. In this paper, we focus on tightly coupled coordination of two Mars rovers transporting a long payload. We have developed practical decentralized comp...

Generally, primed seeds produce larger and heavier plants than non-primed seeds. This may be simply due to rapid emergence and extension of leaf growth, or the influence of other physiological processes. The effect of seed pretreatment with salicylic acid (SA) on some physiological and photosynthetic characteristics of the safflower seedlings, cv. Goldasht, was examined under field condition. T...

Global climate change is leading to changes in rainfall and temperature parameters. With the lack of water, coffee plant presents growth development restrictions. The air also affects plant, as each event requires an ideal temperature. genetic improvement can help overcome these difficulties with new cultivars more adapted effects change. Thus, studies are necessary characterize responses water...

Low and uneven germination is a serious problem for the successful production of okra seedlings. Priming seeds as well supplementation different plant growth regulators exhibited better response in seedling which eventually results higher yield. Therefore, present study was conducted to evaluate effects seed priming exogenous application salicylic acid (SA) on development. The were primed by 1 ...
