Background: Since alkaloids are nitrogenous compounds, the availability of nitrogen (N) is expected to play an important role in the biosynthesis and accumulation of alkaloids in plants. Nitrogen has been found to increase the content of alkaloids in some of the medicinal plants. Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the effects of nitrogen bio-fertilizers, conventional nitrogen fe...

the effect of concentration and time of supplementary nitrogen fertilizer spray application on grain yield and nitrogen use efficiency in rapeseed (hyola401) as a second crop in paddy fields were evaluated in a field experiment conducted in randomized complete block design with 3 replications at rice research institute of iran (rasht) in 2008. in this experiment two factors, concentration of so...

background and objectives: soybean is one of the plants that need large amounts of nitrogen for grain yield production. todays bio-fertilizers are considered as a best replacement for chemical nitrogen to increase soil fertility and sustained agricultural production. meanwhile, the use of soybean symbiotic bacteria and nitroxin, which contain the most effective nitrogen-fixing bacteria of the g...

in order to investigate effect of application of nitroxin and nitrogen chemical fertilizer on yield and yield components, split plot experiment on the basis of randomized complete block design with four replications was conducted. four levels of nitrogen fertilizer (n1: 100% chemical fertilizer, n2: 75% chemical fertilizer + 100% biological fertilizer, n3: 50% chemical fertilizer + 100% biologi...

in order to evaluate efficiency of nitrogen fertilizers consumption in a sugar beet monogerm hybrid variety of zarghan, a field experiment was conducted in a loamy soil during 2007 in the research farm of sugar beet seed institute located in karaj. five levels of nitrogen fertilizers including 0 (check), 120, 160, 200 and 240 kg/ha of net nitrogen from urea fertilizer (46 percent of pure nitrog...

abstractbackground and objectives: in most saline and non-saline soils, nitrogen is the most restrictive nutrient for plant growth. in saline soils, interactive effects of salinity and soil fertility is very important from optimum production. nutrient imbalance is one of the problems with saline soils. in these circumstances, the fertilizer application may to increase osmotic effect of salt, th...

BACKGROUND: Wheat produces more than 50 percent of requirements protein and calorie for human nutrition in Iran. Management of nitrogen fertilizing is important to increasing wheat production. So, among chemical fertilizer a high correlation reported between nitrogen and yield. Also to improve physical, chemical and biological properties of soil, organic fertilizer such as verm...
