in order to find the most appropriate planting patter and cultivar of grain corn, an experiment was conducted in agriculture research station of jiroft and kahnooj, iran for two years in 2007 and 2008 as a split-plot experiment based on a randomized complete blocks design with three replications. the main plot was planting patter at four levels of normal planting (single-row on one furrow), dou...

soil infiltration characteristics affect the design, evaluation and management of furrow irrigation over afield. on the other hand, different variables influence furrow infiltration, making infiltration modeling for afield a complex process. this study was conducted to investigate the direct and indirect effects of allvariables affecting furrow infiltration. the blocked furrow method was used t...

Demand for water from the rivers of the Murray-Darling Basin (MDB) continues to increase, despite a Cap on diversions being in place since 1996. Previous and ongoing efforts to improve water use efficiency within the Basin have focused primarly on engineering solutions, in particular through reducing losses from seepage, leakage and evaporation within the distribution system, including by upgra...

in order to improve the efficiency of irrigation systems and investigate their impact on the pest population levels, furrow and sprinkler irrigation systems were compared in sugar beet fields. in this study, three different fields were chosen and irrigated by one of the furrow, classic and center pivot irrigation systems.  in each field, 20 plots were randomly selected of which 10 plots were ma...

In this work the eddy resolving data sets of salinity, temperature, and oxygen content aquired in the framework of the German-Russian project MESODYN (MESOscale DYNamics) in the Arkona Basin, the Bornholm Basin, the Stolpe Furrow, and the Eastern Gotland Basin during summer and winter stratification situations are utilized to examine to which extent the observations at the central monitoring st...

New irrigation methods under different nutritional element supplies for maize production was designed and tested for evaluate quantitative and qualitative parameters by split-plot arrangement according complete randomized block design with three replications. Different Irrigation regimes was belonged to main plots (Conventional furrow irrigation: CFI or A1, Alternate furrow irrigation: AFI or A...

The Drosophila embryo undergoes a developmental transition in the blastoderm stage switching from syncytial to cellular development. The cleavage furrow, which encloses nuclei into cells, is a prominent morphological feature of this transition. It is not clear how the pattern of the furrow array is defined and how zygotic genes trigger the formation and invagination of interphase furrows. A key...
