in order to study the effect of different levels of the manure and foliar application of zn and mn fertilizers on the quantitative and qualitative yield of soybeans (var. williams), a factorial experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2012. treatments involved three levels of fertilizer: manure (zero as control; six and 12 t/ha), two levels of mn...

One of the widest ranging abiotic stresses in world agriculture arises from low zinc (Zn) availability in calcareous soils, particularly in cereals. Cereal species greatly differ in their zinc effici ency (ZE), defined in this article as the ability of a plant to grow and yield well under Zn deficiency. ZE has been attributed mainly to the effi ciency of acquisition of Zn under conditions of lo...

This paper describes the microstructure, tensile, and tensile–creep behavior of a series of Mg–Zn alloys ranging from 0 to 4.4 wt.% Zn. The microstructures consisted of equiaxed hexagonal-close-packed grains with fine precipitates preferentially located at grain boundaries. Some of the microstructures contained fine laths within the equiaxed grains. The finest grain sizes were observed for a Zn...

Zinc (Zn) fertilizer is not currently recommended for rice grown on clay or clay loam soils in Arkansas. In 2003, eight field sites were established to evaluate the response of rice grown on clay soils to Zn fertilization. Shortly before or after seeding, granular Zn fertilizer was applied to the soil surface at rates of 0, 5, 10, and 20 lb Zn/acre. Tissue Zn concentration 10 to 14 days after f...

The event of partly grain-free ear is a crucial problem which can result in severe reductions in corn yield. In a two year field investigation, during 2003-2004, an experiment was conducted to determine the effect of  boron (B) and zinc (Zn) application on yield and yield components of corn (Zea mays L.) plants grown in a B and Zn-deficient calcareous soil (fine, carbonatic, thermic, Typic Hapl...

To optimize the mechanical properties for biodegradable orthopedic implant, microstructures and tensile properties of Mg-Zn-Y alloys containing long period stacking ordered (LPSO) phase were investigated. For the as-cast Mg(100-3x)(Zn(1)Y(2))(x) (1 ≤ x ≤ 3) alloys, volume fraction of 18R LPSO phase increases with increasing the contents of Zn and Y. Mg(97)Zn(1)Y(2) alloy exhibits the optimal co...

a field study was conducted in qaen region using complete randomized blocks with three replications to study the effect of organic manure, zinc and boron on yield and yield components of millet and grain chemical composition. the treatments included factorial arrangement of municipal solid waste compost and cow manure (each at 25 ton ha-1), zn (0, 50 kg ha-1) and b (0, 10 kg ha-1) by using thei...
