.in order to investigate the effects of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria and nitrogen fertilizer on morphological traits of german chamomile (matricaria chamomilla l.), a field experiment was carried out as factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replications in research farm of the faculty of agriculture, university of tabriz, iran, during 2007-2008. factors were ino...

Measurement or estimation of leaf area is essential for understanding crop responses to experimental treatments. The objective of this study was to develop regression models for estimating leaf area of field-grown cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) from measurements of leaf dry weight (LDW), vegetative components (stems and leaves) dry weight (VDW) and plant height (PH). Three cotton cultivars (Del...

The accumulations and partitions of mineral elements and dry matter in upland cotton plants were followed: A, at five-day intervals for thirty days starting with the seed with the plants growing in Hoagland's solution in a warm-to-hot summer greenhouse, and B, at 15-day intervals from thirty days after planting to maturity in field plantings. The latter data are not original but are recalculate...

This study examined the lodging resistance of mulberry tree (Morus bombycis Koidz. cv Kenmochi) shoots treated or not treated with succinic acid 2,2-dimethylhydrazide (SADH). The lodging safety factor, an indicator of lodging resistance, was defined as the ratio of critical lodging load to the leaf fresh weight observed, provided that the distribution of the critical lodging load along the stem...

Volatile components of three parts of Pimpinella tragium Vill. (Umbelliferae family) from Iran were investigated qualitatively and quantitatively for the first time. Essential oils were isolated by hydro-distillation from stems plus leaves, inflorescence and seeds of P. tragium individually. The plant materials were collected from Polour (Northeast of Tehran Province). The yields of the ...

 The accumulation of heavy metals Pb and Cd in the mangrove, Avicennia marina, was studied on the southern coast of Iran, particularly on and near Qeshm Island in the Persian Gulf. The samples were collected from 7 stations which they were analyzed by flame Atomic absorption spectrophotometer after chemical digestion. Maximum Pb and Cd in leaves are (34.50, 3.52 ppm) and minimum of th...

for finding out the effect of nitrogen and calcium carbonate fertilizers on nitrate and nitrogen accumulation in aboveground biomass, calcium concentration and dry weight of leaves of satureja hortensis l., a factorial experiment was carried out based on randomized complete block design with three replications in karaj in 2008. the nitrogen fertilizer was in four levels (0, 50, 100 and 150 kg. ...

Tomato plants (cv. Naomi) were grown until the 8 cluster in a greenhouse during Aug. 1998 – Jan. 1999 using a closed sub-irrigated soilless system. Plants were raised in pots (10 L) filled with peat and pomice (1:2 v:v) substrate. Forty days after transplanting 3 nutrient solutions (NS) with electrical conductivity (EC) of 2, 4, and 6 dS/m were applied to the plants. The ECs were achieved by pr...
