Two field experiments were conducted to know the effect of different doses of nitrogen fertilizer on the growth, botanical parameters and yield of maize and jumbo fodder cultivated with cowpea as inter crop and evaluation of silage. The experimental plots for Jumbo with cowpea and maize with cowpea were applied to nitrogen (N2) levels as urea 0, 100, 150kg ha-1 and 0, 150, 220 kg/ha, respective...

1. The effects of oral hydrochloric acid, ammonium chloride, sodium bicarbonate and ammonium bicarbonate on urea and ammonium excretion in rats on a constant diet were studied. 2. Hydrochloric acid acidosis significantly reduced urea excretion in the rat, with an equimolar increase in NH+4 excretion and no change in their sum. In ammonium chloride acidosis, most of the additional nitrogen intak...

Gulf toadfish, Opsanus beta, are one among a group of unusual teleosts that excrete urea as their predominant nitrogen end product in response to stressful conditions. Under conditions of crowding or confinement, fasted toadfish excrete the majority of their nitrogen waste in large pulses of urea (>90% of total nitrogen) lasting up to 3 h. An earlier study demonstrated that cortisol has an inhi...

in order to investigate the effect of urea and azocompost on economic yield, nitrogen use efficiency (nue) and radiation use efficiency (rue) of wild majoram, a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications at yazd and mashhad, iran, during 2012-2013 growing season. four urea levels and four azocompost levels (to provide 0, 40, 80 and 120 k...

Nitrogen fertilizer use in Wisconsin as anhydrous ammonia, urea-ammonium nitrate solutions, and urea ranged from about 148,000 to 213, 000 tons of N during the 19952000 period (Terry and Kirby, 2001). This amount is similar to that used about 10 years earlier when 170,000 tons of N was used in 1984. However, a substantial materials shift has occurred since 1984 when about 56% of the N used as t...

this research was carried out for the purpose of urea fertilizer, organic matter and pgpr bacteria effects on yield and some growth indices on winter wheat (triticum aestivum c.v alvand). this research was carried out with factorial experiment on completely randomized design with 4 replication in greenhouse. treatments included bacteria 4 levels, without bacteri, a. brasilense, a. chroococum, i...

the main object of this study was to evaluate the effect of tillage and crop residues management of barley (hordeum vulgare l.) on quantification and qualification yield of corn (zea mays l.). treatments were laid out in complete randomized block design with seven treatments and three replications and include (1) fire of straw and stubble, plow, disc and furrower (2) gathering and transfer of s...

In order to elucidate further the cues for, and the biochemical mechanisms of, the transition to ureogenesis in the gulf toadfish Opsanus beta, experiments on the effects of feeding (i.e. nitrogen loading) were carried out. Baseline nitrogen excretion rates were first measured on solitary toadfish in large water volumes (i.e. unconfined conditions). These nitrogen excretion rates were higher, a...
