nitrate and ammonium ions are the two major forms of nitrogen that taken up by plants, but they differ in their effects on growth and chemical composition of biochemical levels. in this research we examined the effect of nitrogen sources on growth and senescence of rice leaves in biochemical levels. our results showed that amounts of fresh and dry weights, total chlorophyll, rate of hill,s reac...

the amount of nitrogen fertilizer is an effective factor on the growth, development, and reproduction of phytophagous insects. to investigate the effect of nitrogen fertilization on intrinsic rate of increase of cabbage aphid, brevicoryne brassicae l., plants rape oilseed (rgs003cultivar) were treated with four nitrogen levels (zero (check) 50, 100, and 150% of recommended levels. the results s...

This study investigated the effect of season (wet and dry) on milk composition of the dromedary camel (Camelus dromedarius). Milk samples representing the wet and dry seasons were analyzed for total solids (TS), fat (F), solids-non-fat (SNF), ash, crude protein (CP), nitrogen soluble at pH 4.6 (SN), mineral content (MC) and casein fraction (CnF). Camel milk had higher (P

The aqueous soluble phase of acidified and autolyzed fish viscera was used as the nitrogen source in a growth medium for bacteria. The bacteria tested grew faster and produced higher yields of cell mass on this growth medium than on corresponding media with standard tryptone preparations as the nitrogen source.

Patterns of accumulation and ontogenetic relationships among proteins of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) seeds were examined between 10 days postanthesis and maturity (56 days). Total and extractable nitrogen contents were determined; alkali- and water-soluble proteins were assayed quantitatively and electrophoretically. Two alkali-soluble proteins present in the electrophoretogram of mature emb...

Alllelopathic potential of chicory was investigated by evaluating its effect on seed germination, soluble sugar, malondialdehyde (MDA) and the chlorophyll content of three target plants species (Festuca arundinacea, Trifolium repens and Medicago sativa). The secretion of allelochemicals was regulated by keeping the donor plant (chicory) separate from the three target plant species and using dif...

The purpose of the study was to compare basic fruit chemical composition of four highbush blueberry cultivars: ‘Spartan’, ‘Bluecrop’, ‘Jersey’ and ‘Blueray’. The plants were grown on plantation near Szczecin in the years 2001 – 2003. Basic chemical composition of fruit including total ash, crude fibre, total nitrogen, soluble solids, titratable acidity, dry weight and total polyphenol content w...

A universal and robust strategy using polyurethane sponge as a precursor was developed to synthesize highly-soluble nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots via solvothermal method.

in order to study the effects of simultaneous application of znso4 and biological fertilizer, azotobacter chroococcum and azospirillum brasilense, on grain yield and nitrogen uptake efficiency in rapeseed (brassica napus l.), cv. hyola308, a field experiment was conducted as split plot factorial based on randomized complete block design at research field of faculty of agricultural sciences, uni...

[1] Dry deposition rates and associated inputs of soluble inorganic nitrogen (N) phosphorus (P) and iron (Fe) were calculated for the north coast of the Gulf of Aqaba in Eilat, Israel, between August 2003 and September 2005. The main inorganic N compounds in the water soluble fraction of aerosol particles were nitrate (60%) and ammonium (38%), with mean concentrations of 35 and 22 nmol m 3 of a...
