In order to study the effect of zeolite and biologic fertilizers application under different irrigation regime on yield and quantitative traits in sugar beet, a research project was conducted according split-split plot experiment based on randomized complete block design with four replicates. The main factor included irrigation regime at two levels (Normal and stress), sub factor included zeoli...

Subsoil compaction can result in unfavourable soil physical conditions and hinder the root growth of maize. The effects of deep tillage and conventional tillage on soil physical properties and root growth of maize were studied during 2010–2011 at two sites (loam at Hebi and clay at Luohe) in central China. The results showed that soil penetration resistance, bulk density, water content and root...

The recent phenomenal increases in the amounts of image data being generated and consumed in a variety of applications have necessitated the development of image databases. The richness of content, inexact nature, and subjective interpretations of images have rendered keyword-based queries inadequate. Thus image databases need to provide content-based queries and retrievals. Fast and accurate r...

We describe a rule-based approach to semantic speci cation that can be used to dynamically establish semantic relevance between consumers' queries posed on the y and producers' data sources available online. The semantic speci cation of user queries is independent of the content and capabilities of the data sources (query-to-source independence). The semantic speci cation of the content and cap...

Tomato (Lycpoersicum esculemtum) belongs to the Solanaceae potato family and is an important crop plant. It is relatively resistant to salinity, but in the saline environment growth and production of the plant significantly reduces. On the other hand, the presence of mycorrhiza fungus can improve the adverse effects of salinity. A factorial experiment in a completely randomized design with thre...

This study was designed in order to correlate the flavonoid and lipoidal matters content of Spinach roots and flowers to their hypolipidemic potential. The total flavonoid content was measured via complexation with aluminum chloride while determination of fatty acids methyl esters and unsaponifiable matters contents in both organs was performed using GC/MS. In an in vitro study, the crude etha...
