to evaluate the effect of zn sulfate foliar application on morphologic and quantitative characteristics of safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.) cultivars, a field experiment carried out in ramin agriculture and natural resources university of khouzestan, iran, in a factorial arrangement in a randomized complete block design with four replications, during 2012-2013. treatments consisted of two sp...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of nitroxin biofertilizer and chemical fertilizer on the growth, yield, and essential oil composition of dill. The experiment was conducted under field condition in randomized complete block design with three replications and two factors. RESULTS The first factor was the concentrations of nitroxin biofertilizer (0%, 50%, and 100%) o...

We report a case of Vibrio parahaemolyticus panophthalmitis which resulted from contamination of a wound with water from a pond in inland Georgia. The pond was on the property of an oil refinery which receives crude oil from southern Mississippi. Cultures of the pond water 5 years later did not yield V. parahaemolyticus, but did yield non-O1 V. cholerae and had 0.28% sodium chloride content. V....

in order to investigate the effects of two sowing time (middle of may and early june) and four plant density (8, 12, 16 and 20 plants.m-2) on yield and essential oil content of peppermint at two cutting stages, an experiment was conducted at the research farm of the faculty of agriculture, university of tabriz during growing season of 2003-2004. these treatments were performed as factorial base...

Hydroprocessing has become the main technology for the production of API Group II and III base oils. One of the key properties is viscosity index for Group II and III base oils. The effect of wax content in hydrocracker unconverted oil on viscosity index and yield was studied in a 400 kton/year hydroisomerization dewaxing plant at a total pressure of 15 MPa, a feed rate of 38 ton/hour, and a ga...

in order to study adaptation ability of 15 commercial olive cultivars, this experiment was carried out using a randomized complete block design with three replication during the period from 2007 to 2009 in dry-warm climate of sar-pol-e-zehab dallaho olive station of kermanshah province. in this experiment, vegetative and reproductive traits were measured according to i.o.o.c. descriptors. flora...

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...

The prevailing investigation was undertaken with the goals to study heterosis for oil content, seed yield and its components traits in sunflower. Six female lines were crossed 4 male order obtain 24 F1s. crosses parents checks, have been evaluated a Randomized Block design two replications, at experimental farm Oilseeds research station, Latur. Data had recorded on ten characters. An extensive ...
