Soybeans (Glycine max L. Merr. cv Tracy and Ransom) were grown under N(2)-dependent or NO(3) (-)-supplied conditions, and the partitioning of photosynthate and dry matter was characterized. Although no treatment effects on photosynthetic rates were observed, NO(3) (-)-supplied plants in both cultivars had lower starch accumulation rates than N(2)-dependent plants. Leaf extracts of NO(3) (-)-sup...

in order to evaluate a better sowing date of chickpea cultivars in dry land conditions, a factorial experiment in randomized complete block design with four replications was carried out at research station of bahar (hamadan province) during 2005-2006 cropping season. two planting time included winter and spring and four chickpea cultivars (cvs.) including one local (check) and three improved cv...

environmental stresses are one of the most important factors of agricultural products reduction in the world. the influence of different concentrations of nickel nitrate (0, 100, 200 and 500 μm in hoagland’s solution) on dry matter, catalase enzyme, flavonoids, hydrogen peroxide, peroxidase enzyme, mda and accumulation of ni were studied in coriander ( coriandrum sativum ) plants. treatment wit...

a study was conducted to evaluate the effects of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) inoculants including four strains of azotobacter chroococcum, azospirillum lipoferum, a. brasilense and pseudomonas fluorescence on dry matter accumulation of late maturing maize(zea mays l.) hybrids, sc704, sc700 and a promising single cross b73×k18. a factorial experiment was conducted in research fie...

Simulation of dry matter accumulation and the distribution of crop growth is an important means of predicting yield. In this study, a variety of cultivars of the processing tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.), sowing dates and densities were tested. By analyzing the quantitative relationships between growth and physiological development time (PDT) based on a knowledge model, dry matter parti...

wheat stem reserves can be an important contributor to grain filling particularly under drought conditions. knowledge concerning genetic variation in stem reserve could be empolyed to develop wheat genotypes more adapted to harsh environments. the aim of this research was to study the ability to store assimilates in stem and their re-mobilization to the grain in all the 81 iranian wheat cultiva...

this study investigated intra-specific variation in the growth parameters and dry mat-ter partitioning of sugar beet cultivars at different levels of salinity (0, 50, 150, 250 and 350 mm nacl + cacl2 in 5:1 molar ratio) using four cvs, one british (madison) and three iranian cvs (7233-p12, 7233-p21 and 7233-p29). the plants were grown in a controlled greenhouse environment for about 18 weeks. a...

The objectives of this work were to determine the effect of nodulation on dry matter, reduced-N, and phosphorus accumulation and partitioning in above-ground vegetative parts and pods of field-grown soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr. cv Harosoy).From comparison of nodulated and nonnodulated isolines, it was estimated that nodulated plants attained 81 and 71% of total-plant (above ground) N from up...

the aim of this research was to compare more and less competitiveness of rice cultivars against barnyardgrass for light extinction coefficient and canopy structur. a filed experiment was conducted in 2007 growing season in tonekabon’s rice research station in mazandaran province. the experiment layout was a factorial design with four randomized complete blocks. seven rice cultivars (khazar, sep...
