in order to determine the effect of different levels of sulfur bentonite on yield and yield components of canola a factorial experiment was conducted on the basis of randomized complete block design with three replications in mashhad in 2009-2010 growing season. factors included four levels of sulfur bentonite (0, 300, 400 and 500 kg.h-1) and two varieties of canola (modena and zarfam). the res...

cotton (gossypium hirsutum l. cv. varamin ) an important industrial crop of iran, is grown in 300,000 ha, with an average seed -cotton yield of 1750 kg.ha-1. the main obstacle in the way of increasing average cotton yield is imbalanced fertilizer use. along with urea and triple super phosphate, cotton growers also need k, mg, zn, fe, mn, cu, and b, so these elements’ critical levels should ...

effect of different amounts of sulfur fertilizer (0, 50, 100, 150, 200, 250 kg/ha) and 200 kg/ha of thiobacillus inoculant on yield, quality and storability of two edible onion cultivars red rey and white qom were investigated. the experiments were conducted at experimental field and laboratories of the department of horticulture, seed and plant improvement institute, karaj, iran in 2007-08 cro...

excessive vegetative growth may bring about improper pollination and consequently lead to reduced fruit set and misshapen fruits. paclobutrazol (pp333) reduces vegetative growth. on the other hand, balanced nutrient uptake at all developmental stages increases fruit quality and yield. an experiment was conducted with the aim of reducing vegetative growth and improving yield of strawberry, selva...

New irrigation methods under different nutritional element supplies for maize production was designed and tested for evaluate quantitative and qualitative parameters by split-plot arrangement according complete randomized block design with three replications. Different Irrigation regimes was belonged to main plots (Conventional furrow irrigation: CFI or A1, Alternate furrow irrigation: AFI or A...

The present study aims to assess the effect of Thiobacillus and sulfur on morphological and biochemical properties of medicinal pumpkinproperties under deficit irrigation based on a split-plot design. For this purpose, water stress was applied as a main factor in three levels (control, no irrigation in flowering stage, no irrigation in fruiting), and Thiobacillus and sulfur fertilizers as sub-p...
