in order to evaluate the effects of foliar micronutrients on quantitative and qualitative yield of safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.), a field experiment was carried out at research farm of agricultural faculty, zabol university during growing season of 2005-2006. the experiment performed based on rcbd with 3 replications and 7 treatments including: fe, zn, b, pair combination of them and cont...

The proximate, nutritive and anti-nutritive composition of the leaves of Aerva lanata were determined. The leaves were found to be moderately high in carbohydrate (26.6 g/100g), crude protein (22.6 g/100g) and ash (31.2 g/100g). Mineral composition (mg/100g) revealed that the leaves were high in P (187), and moderately high in other minerals such as K (47.9), Na (39.4), Ca (51.7), Mg (41.5), Zn...

In this study some selected chemical properties such as total soluble solids, pH, total acidity, formalin index, reduced sugar content and ascorbic acid of major sour cherry cultivated grown in different provinces of Iran corresponding were investigated.  Minerals K+, Na+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Cu2+, Fe2+ and Zn2+ were determine...

although micronutrients effect on growth and yield of different plants has been intensively investigated, but there is limited information on its effect on grain yield and seed oil content of pot marigold) calendula officinalis l.). in order to investigate the effects of micronutrients (fe, zn and mn) spraying on yield and yield components and seed oil of pot marigold, a field experiment was co...

due to extent of zinc (zn) deficiency in soils of iran and its deficiency in human diet, this study investigated the effect of zn sulfate foliar applications (non-foliar application, 0.5 g/l at stem elongation stage, 0.5 g/l at stem elongation and grain filling stages, 0.5 g/l at stem elongation and 2 g/l at grain filling stages) on yield and its components (farm sector) and influence of grain ...

Shen, L., Li, D., Feng, F. and Ren, Y. Nutritional composition of Polyrhachis vicina Roger (Edible Chinese black ant) Songklanakarin J. Sci. Technol., 2006, 28(Suppl. 1) : 107-114 Edible black ant (Polyrhachis vicina Roger) is a traditional edible insect species in China. It has been used as a functional ingredient in various tonics or health foods. This study determined the nutritional composi...

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...
