Licorice root pulp is an organic waste which may be used as a growth medium in soilless culture. A research was conducted in a completely randomized design with 8 replications to assess the efficiency of licorice root pulp as a growth medium for strawberry plant (Selva cv.) under greenhouse conditions for three months. In this experiment, four ratios (v/v) of perlite:licorice root pulp (75:25, ...

1. to determine whether difference in birth body mass influenced growth performance in pipistrellus kuhlii we studied a total of 12 captive-born neonates. bats were assigned to two body mass groups: light birth body mass (lbw: 0.89 ± 0.05, n=8) and heavy birth body mass (hbw: 1.35 ± 0.08, n=4). heavier body mass at birth was associated with rapid postnatal growth (body mass and forearm length) ...

Type of growing medium affects growth of the hydroponic crops. In order to select a suitable medium for hydroponic lemon balm, two greenhouse experiments were carried out on growing media containing different particle sizes of perlite and peat moss mixed with perlite. In the first experiment, growing media treatments were very fine perlite (<0.5 mm), fine perlite (0.5-1 mm), medium perlite (1-1...

during natural gas processing, water in natural gas may cause to hydrates formation in pipelines which may lead to serious damages to process equipments. given the problems raised by present of water in natural gas, glycol solvent uses to remove water.in contact of glycol with gas always an amount of btex and voc absorb along with water, which on glycol recovery process, these substances separa...

chapter two presents three m-admissible function algebras ab, bd, and sl, to construct the universal abelian, band, and semilattice compactifications, respectively. the main results are (11.3), (12.3), and (12.4). some inclusion relationships between these function algebras and the other well-known ones, presented in section 8, are made via the devico of compactifications. chpter three is about...

   Strawberry is one of the most popular and beneficial fruits in viewpoint of nutritional value which its production is increasing in greenhouse. In this study the effects of two culture media (perlite + cocopeat with 1:1 ratio or Pumice) and three concentrations of humic acid (0, 300, and 600 mg L-1) as fertigation method, on yield, number of fruit per plant, fruit weight and some of biochemi...
