in order to study of the effect of nitrogen source, operation method and weed control methods on weed biomass, yield and yield components of corn (zea mays l.) an experiment was carried out as split plot factorial based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with four replications in shahrood university of technology. the treatments included weed control methods at four levels (hand weeding...

Maize (Zea mays L.) is an important crop among Brazilian smallholder farmers,who are also responsible for 40% of the poultry and egg production in the country.Although poultry litter is considered a potential pollutant, if properly stabilized anddistributed in the field it can be used as a source of nitrogen for maize production.In this study, the response of maize to mineral fertilizer and pou...

A novel source of biological nitrogen produced by multi-strain fermentation was developed for erythromycin production. The nitrogen composition of corn steep liquor, biological nitrogen and soybean flour was optimized by using Response surface methodology (RSM) firstly. A Box-Behnken design was used to estimate the optimum nitrogen composition for the production of erythromycin as follows: corn...

The source-sink relationship determines crop yield, and it is largely regulated by water and nutrients in agricultural production. This has been widely investigated in cereals, but fewer studies have been conducted in root and tuber crops such as potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). The objective of this study was to investigate the source-sink relationship in potato and the regulation of water and n...

production of lysine by corynebacterium glutamicum (ptcc 1532) from different agricultural by-products (molasses and pulpy waste date) was compared to glucose as raw materials. for this purpose, ammonium sulphate was selected as a constant nitrogen source. the effect of different nitrogen sources was also investigated with glucose as a constant carbon source. the production of l-lysine was exam...

Background: In Algeria the date wastes production is estimated at least 85.000 tones. Date wastes is an economic source of carbohydrates for conversion to industrial enzymes because it is readily available and relatively low priced. Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential of using date wastes as a substrate for the production of a-amylase and invertase. Materia...
