The root is an important plant part contributing to peanut productivity underwater-limited conditions. Root volume, root surface area and root diameter may becharacters responding to pre-flowering drought (PFD) in peanut. The objectives ofthis study were to investigate the responses to PFD for root surface area, rootvolume and root diameter and to determine the inter-relationships among theresp...

In a 3-year experiment (2002-2004), five N rates (0, 60, 120, 180, 240 kg N ha-1) were applied to sugar beets arranged in a Randomized Complete Block design with six replications. Experimentation took place under the semi-arid, irrigated conditions of central Greece. The aim of this work was to study the late season response of sugar beet crop to N fertilization as assessed by non-destructive m...

In complex task domains, such as games, students may exceed their teachers. Such tasks afford diverse means to tradeoff one type of performance for another, combining task elements in novel ways to yield method variations and strategy discoveries that, if mastered, might produce large or small leaps in performance. For the researcher interested in the development of extreme expertise in the wil...

As organic farming gains popularity worldwide, it is crucial to investigate the potential benefits of using poultry manure as an fertilizer source. This study aimed assess comparative performance tomato cultivation under and conventional practices, with a specific focus on effects varying rates applications. The research was carried out at Teaching Research Farm College Agriculture Science Tech...

the sugar beet plant has a conical-shaped root and at harvest the tap-root breaks which remains in the soil. as a result, a significant amount of root yield and consequently sugar content is lost. furthermore, the field soil remains in the root fissures and is carried with the root to sugar factory. in rhizomania and nematode-infested areas, the soil movement causes the disease wide spread. in ...

Tetrahydroaminoacridine (THA) is a centrally active anticholinesterase that also interacts with neuronal K+ and Na+ channels and cardiac Ca2+ channels. The effects of THA on neuronal voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels are not known. We tested the effects of THA (25 nM-250 microM) on the Ca2+ current components of acutely dissociated rat nodose ganglion and dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons using ...
