In order to evaluate the effects of foliar application of micronutrients (iron and zinc) and different harvesting times during seed filling on yield and mucilage percentage of psyllium (Plantago psyllium), a field experiment was carried out in 2009 at the Research Farm of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran. The experiment was arranged as split plot based on randomize...

Endophytic bacteria can promote growth and improve the quality of plant production. The objective this work was to evaluate efficiency inoculation a mix non-host endophytic isolates in nutrition tomato fruits cultivated, fertilized with rock powder different doses nitrogen. experimental design randomized blocks, factorial arrangement (2 × 6 + 3), four replications. treatments consiste...

BACKGROUND The effects of tongue cleaning on reconstruction of bacterial flora in dental plaque and tongue coating itself are obscure. We assessed changes in the amounts of total bacteria as well as Fusobacterium nucleatum in tongue coating and dental plaque specimens obtained with and without tongue cleaning. METHODS We conducted a randomized examiner-blind crossover study using 30 volunteer...

Citrus genus is known as one of the world's major economic agricultural products. In the current research, a method is reported for artificial seed production technology by shoot tips in Citrus sinensis.var. Thamson navel. Alginate is one of the most efficient gelling agents in the production of capsule coating in artificial seeding technique. In the current research, impact of different consti...

Chitosan was modified with sodium hydroxide and polymerized in water with plant growth regulators, microfertilizer and other additives to give a novel environmentally friendly seed coating agent for rice. The results showed the seed coating agent has obvious biological effect through the germination test, bacteriostasis test, toxicological security test and field experiment. Compared with the t...

due to the high antagonistic activity of bacterium, bacillus subtilis (ehrenberg) cohn, three isolates (b.s.ham, 204 and 202) were selected and their efficacy were studied in control of sugar beetdamping–off caused by rhizoctonia solani , in  in vitro and in vivo conditions.  in dual culture on pda, all isolates of b.subtilis inhibited mycelial growth of r.solani.  significantly, volatile metab...

Coating of particulate solids by a thin film layer is of interest in many industrial applications such as seed and tablet coating. In seed processing, seeds are commonly coated with a protective coating layer consisting of fertilisers and crop protection products. Rotary drum batch coaters are typically used for this purpose. The coater consists of a cylindrical vessel with a rotating spray dis...
