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...

thirty multiparous holstein dairy cows with average body weights of 687±15 kg and body condition scores of 3.25±0.15 were allocated to 1 out of each 3 groups, immediately after parturition (dim=11) and in a completely randomized design. the first group was fed diet low in rumen undegradable protein (rup; 5.1% of dry matter), the second group fed with medium rup (7.2% of dry matter) while the th...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the genotypic stability of agronomic traits in hybrids of Panicum maximum. Hybrids originating from the crosses between two sexual parents and cultivars Mombasa and Tanzania were evaluated in an incomplete-block design. Evaluated traits were total dry matter, leaf dry matter, stem dry matter, percentage of leaves, and leaf:stem ratio. These traits wer...

The nutritive values of non-processed and processed pistachio peel with Neurospora sitophila were evaluated. The chemical composition of samples was evaluated by laboratory analysis. An in vitro digestibility study was done to determine digestibility coefficients of dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM). Digestible organic matter in the dry matter (DOMD) to estimate the metabolizable energy (ME)...

Crop biomass is a critical variable for characterizing crop growth development, understanding dry matter partitioning, and predicting grain yield. Previous studies on the spectroscopic estimation of crop biomass focused on the use of various spectral indices based on chlorophyll absorption features and found that they often became saturated at high biomass levels. Given that crop biomass is com...

I. Sheep fitted with rumen cannulas were fed at hourly intervals by an automatic feeder in a controlled environment and the contents of the reticulo-rumen were removed at intervals of 6 h, 30 min after the previous feed. 2. No diurnal variation was found in the total contents or in the quantity of dry matter, organic matter and nitrogen. 3. Nine dried pasture herbages containing 0.79-3‘69 yo N ...

Biopsy samples were obtained from the vastus lateralis muscle of eight subjects after 0, 20, 60, and 120 s of recovery from intense electrically evoked isometric contraction. Later (10 days), the same procedures were performed using the other leg, but subjects ingested 20 g creatine (Cr)/day for the preceding 5 days. Muscle ATP, phosphocreatine (PCr), free Cr, and lactate concentrations were me...

To study the physiological and morphological relationships of two clover species affected by herbicides, Pursuit experiment in a factorial based on randomized completely design with 3 replications at the Damavand in 2012. The first factor consisted of two species of Trifolium pretense L. and Trifolium alexandrinum L. and the second factor consisted of three levels of herbicide...
