introduction: soil fertility management is a key factor in achieving sustainable agriculture. use of organic fertilizers is one of the methods that without environmental harmful effects with improvement of chemical and biological conditions increases soil fertility. nitroxin contains a collection of the best strains of nitrogen fixation bacteria of the genus azospirillum and azotobacter. these ...

To investigate whether the fertilizers N, P or K individually affect plant growth, oil content and the gender of sweet gale, two trials, pot and field trials, were carried out at Orkney College UHI in Scotland. A pot trial was established with eight soils which were collected from different sweet gale trial sites in the north of Scotland. Although neither shoot yield nor oil concentration in sh...

Tillage practices and nitrogen (N) sources are important factors affecting rice production. Few studies, however, have examined the interactions between tillage practices and N fertilizer sources on NH3 volatilization, nitrogen use efficiency (NUE), and rice grain yield. This study aimed to investigate the effects of N fertilizer sources (no N fertilizer, inorganic N fertilizer, organic N ferti...

the high cost of fertilizers in farming systems, soil pollution and degradation of soil are factors that caused to full use of available renewable nutrient sources of plant (organic and biological) with optimal application of fertilizers in order to maintain fertility, structure, biological activity, exchange capacity and water-holding capacity of the water in soil. therefore, in recent years, ...

this study set out to investigate the effect of bio-fertilizers containing nitrogen-fixing bacteria and phosphorus on grain yield and yield components of faba bean. to this end a factorial experiment on the basis of randomized complete block design with four replications was conducted in behbahan region at south eastern part of khuzestan province of iran. the experimental treatments included ni...

the high yield depends on high dry matter production per unit area. azotobacter bio-fertilizer experiment to investigate the effect on the index, total dry matter accumulation and pishtaz and chamran wheat cultivars in 2005 was conducted in the faculty of agriculture, lorestan university. experiment, a split-plot randomized complete blocks design with four replicates were tested. treatments con...

It is becoming increasingly apparent that trans-generational immune priming (i.e. the transfer of parental immunological experience to its progeny resulting in offspring protection from pathogens persist across generations) a common phenomenon not only vertebrates, but also invertebrates. Likewise, it known covert pathogenic infections may become ‘triggered’ into an overt infection by various s...

et al., 1982; Webster et al., 1986). Nitrogen balance research in agricultural production systems continues Fertilizer N recovery in crop production systems seldom exceeds to focus on NO3–N leaching (Jokela and Randall, 1989; 50%. Two long-term winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) experiments were selected for use of 15N to evaluate fertilizer recovery in Olson and Swallow, 1984). However, littl...
