Although terrestrial CO2 concentrations, [CO2] are not expected to reach 1000 micromoles mol-1 for many decades, CO2 levels in closed systems such as growth chambers and glasshouses, can easily exceed this concentration. CO2 levels in life support systems in space can exceed 10000 micromoles mol-1 (1%). Here we studied the effect of six CO2 concentrations, from ambient up to 10000 micromoles mo...

objective: in order to study the effect of solopotasse fertilizer on yield and essential oil of cumin medicinal plant. methods: a experiment in randomized complete block design with three replications conducted in kermam city, iran, in 2013. solopotasse fertilizer in four levels (0, 50, 100 and 150 kg/h) investigated. plant height, number of umbrella per plant, number of seed per umbrella, 1000...

Elymus sibiricus L. is an important forage grass widely distributed in Asia and is usually a dominant species on Tibetan Plateau alpine grasslands. Here, we used the seed development indices of 1000 seed weight, seed moisture content, and seed viability to compare the seed characteristics at 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 days after anthesis (DAA) in five populations of E. sibiricus growing in Gann...

abstract in order to investigate the response of two species of p. ovata and p. psyllium to water deficit. the experiment was conducted during 2009 growing seasons in the agriculture research station ferdowsi of mashhad. for this purpose a split plot experiment based on complete randomized block design with three replications was used. four irrigation levels (4000, 3000, 2000, 1000 m3/ha) alloc...

this experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications in 2012 at university of zabol. experimental treatments included phosphorus fertilizer at three levels of 0, 100 and 200 kg.ha-1 as the first factor and foliar humic acid at four levels of 0, 750, 1500, 2250 g.1000 l water as the second factor. results showed phosphorus treatment had significant effect on ...

Cone and seed characteristics of Anatolian black pine were investigated in a clonal seed orchard for two years, 2002 and 2006. The orchard, originated from Kastamonu-Karadere seed stand was established in 1993 by using 1 year-old grafts in an area of 13 ha, at Hanönü-Günlüburun, northern Turkey and includes 30 clones. The results showed that, significant variation exists among clones for 14 of ...

to study the effect of harvesting time on soybean seed germination and vigor a factorial experiment with three replications, including of five harvesting time and three soybean cultivars was carried out in the field and glasshouse. the effect of harvesting time on seed germination percentage (in the field, cold test and paper test), seed germination rate, shoot and root weights, 1000-seed weigh...

Because vanadium (V) is easily reduced to a cationic form within plant cells, data from resin-extraction of soil were analysed for evidence 5 of interactions between V and the resin-extractable concentrations of magnesium (Mg) and calcium (Ca) on soybean seed yield. Three varieties, 9091, 9061 and 704, were grown over a 3-year period in a corn± soybean±wheat rotation. Surface soil samples (0±15...
