Eighteen replicates (9 barrows, 9 gilts) were used to estimate the dietary available phosphorus (AP) needs of a high lean strain of pigs during each of four stages of growth (9 to 37, 37 to 65, 65 to 92, and 92 to 119 kg body weight [BW]). Pigs were self-fed a basal diet supplemented with one of six incremental additions of AP from monodicalcium phosphate. Initially (9 to 37 kg), pigs were fed ...

To survey the effects of chemical and biological phosphorus on the yield and essential oil of Satureja hortensis L. as an important medicinal plant, factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replicates at Research Station of Faculty of Agriculture, Urmia University in 2011. The treatments were chemical phosphorus fertilizer with four levels (0, 50, ...

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...

This study examined the relationship between birth weight and growth performance when suckling piglets were reared in litters standardized by birth weight. Forty-four gilts (Landrace × Large White) due to farrow during the same week were selected. Piglets born to those gilts were individually weighed at birth and cross-fostered to obtain litters with 11 piglets and standardized birth weight (CV...
