The present study was conducted in Bangalore. It aims at studying the effect of different concentrations indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) (1000, 2000 and 3000 ppm) on V-1 mulberry cuttings with varying number buds (one, two, three four) consist twelve treatments which were replicated thrice Factorial CRD. results interaction various concentration IBA recorded best budded treated ppm regarding sprout...

in order to assay the pathogenicity of the entomopathogenic nematode, heterorhabditis bacteriophora poinar, 1975 on the indigenous population of common earwig, forficula auricularia l., several concentrations including 100, 250, 500, 1000, 1500, 2000 and 3000 (ijs/ml of dw) were used in the laboratory conditions. in this experiment, effects of time (f 1, 91= 4.22, p

Chemical mutagenesis is an efficient tool used in mutation-breeding programs to improve the vital characters of the floricultural crops. This study aimed to estimate the effects of different concentrations of two chemical mutagens; sodium azide (SA) and diethyl sulfate (DES). The vegetative growth and flowering characteristics in two generations (M1 and M2) of calendula plants were investigated...

optimal nutrition of grapevine is one of the most important factors that affect the quantity, quality and time of fruit ripening. to increase the quantity and quality of ‘askari’ cultivar, a factorial experiment in a randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at shahrekord in 2010. treatments consisted of four levels of potassium sulfate fertilizer (zero, 300, 600 an...

CBA/Ca male mice have been exposed to benzene in air at 10, 25, 100, 300, 400, and 3000 ppm for variable intervals 6 hr/day, 5 days/week for up to 16 weeks. Two weeks of inhaling 10 ppm produced no hematologic effects; 25 ppm induced a significant lymphopenia. Inhalation of 100, 300, and 400 ppm produced dose-dependent decreases in blood lymphocytes, bone marrow cellularity, marrow content of s...

Thermodynamic calculation has been applied to predict the inclusion formation in molten SS400 steel. When the Cerium addition in liquid iron is 70 ppm and the initial Oxygen and Sulphur are both 110 ppm, the formation of oxides containing Cerium would experience the transformation from Ce2O3 to CeO2 and also the formation of sulfides containing Cerium would experience the transformation from Ce...

Shubhra was conducted in Research Field, Department Horticulture, Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture, Technology Sciences, Prayagraj, during winter season (2022-23). experiment laid out Randomized block design (RBD). There are 9th treatment combination ...

Parthenocissus plant is one of the most attractive outdoor deciduous vines; provides deep green cover to most any object, rapidly climbing by means of tendrils and adhesive disks, can be espaliered against a wall and provides great visual appeal during winter when the leaves have fallen. Rooting the cutting of this plant is difficult without using a rooting hormone, so the present research proj...
