ABSTRACT-This experiment was carried out as factorial based on a randomized complete block design with three replications at the research station of the Islamic Azad University-Arak Branch, Iran, in 2011 and 2012. Experimental factors consisted of three levels of salicylic acid (SA); seed priming with distilled water (hydro priming), seed priming with 0.5 mM SA, and 0.5 mM SA  seed priming 1 mM...

in order to study the effect of density and time of urea foliar application on oil yield and essences percentage of black cumin (nigella sativa l.) a field experiment was conducted at research station of faculty of agriculture, azad university of birjand in 1387 growing season. three urea foliar application times [1-control 2-at 8-10 leaves stage 3-at 10% flowering 4-100% flowering ] and three ...

in order to evaluate the effects of drought stress and methanol foliar application on some quantitative and qualitative traits of soybean (cv. viliamz), a split plot experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design at the faculty of moghan research farm in 2011. treatments were three levels of drought stress based on irrigation at depletion of 40, 55 and 70 percent of availabl...

in order to study the effects of foliar application of si (5/1000 ratio), k (2/1000 ratio) and zn (2/1000 ratio) on rice (cv. tarom hashem), an on-farm experiment carried out based on randomized complete block design with three replications in 2012. some traits such as paddy yield and yield components, neck blast disease and stem borer damage were evaluated. results showed that the effect of fo...

wheat crop, considering its high planting area and consumption at national scale, demand a regular yield increase. humic acid, as an organic acid obtained from humus and organic sources without any environmental destructive effects, improves wheat yield particularly in variable environment conditions. in order to evaluate the effects of different levels of humic acid on shoot and wheat yield, a...

to study the effects of drought stress and foliar application with salicylic acid on yield andit’s components and percentage of essential oil of nigella sativa l., a field experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications at research farm of shahid bahonar university of kerman during growing season of 2013- 2014. the main factor was drought...

Postemergence application of herbicides can cause phytotoxicity problems in eucalyptus seedlings. Foliar fertilization improve seedling development and mitigate the effects on eucalyptus. Thus, objective this work was to evaluate sensitivity clones subjected applied postemergence associated with foliar fertilizer. For this, a field experiment carried out products indaziflam, clomazone, glyphosa...

BACKGROUND: Silicon is a suitable solution to alleviate salinity stress and improve crop production. OBJECTIVES: Investigation physiological and biochemical traits of Single Cross 704 corn affected foliar application of silicon (from a Sodium silicate source) under salinity stress. METHODS: This research was carried out according sp...
