In order to investigate the effect of different levels of nitrogen and bio-fertilizers on yield of canola plants in Qazvin, Iran, a split-plot design was conducted on the base of randomized complete block design with four replications. Treatments included 3 levels of nitrogen (0, 75 and 150 kg ha-1) and bio-fertilizers on four levels (no inoculation, Azotobacter, Azospirillum and a combination ...

Fusarium head blight (FHB; scab) caused mainly by Fusarium graminearum is a devastating disease of wheat and barley around the world. FHB causes yield reductions and contamination of grain with trichothecene mycotoxins such as deoxynivalenol (DON) which are a major health concern for humans and animals. The objective of this research was to develop an easy seed or seedling inoculation assay, an...

abstract soil beneficial microorganisms such as plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) are able to enhance plant growth. the research was conducted using a randomized complete block design as split plot factorial with three factors (nutrient management, azospirillum and azotobacter strains) .in this experiment the effect of azospirillum and azotobacter inoculation on yield and yield compon...

in order to examine the effects of biological and chemical fertilizers with the use of salicylic acid on the agronomic characteristics of corn as a factorial experiment in randomized complete block design with three replications at the agricultural research station in 2011 was boroujerd. factors examined included three levels of phosphorus fertilizer (0, 100 and 150 kg ha), two levels of biolog...

Increased interests in low-input agriculture in recent years has seen the growing developmentin the use of commercial biological inoculants to increase the mobilization of key nutrients suchas nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) to enhance their availability to crop plants.The objectives of this field experiment with tobacco were to determine i) reduced rates ofinorganic fertilizer c...

Phaeosphaeria nodorum (E. Muller) Hedjaroude (anamorph = Stagonospora nodorum (Berk.) Castellani & E.G. Germano) causes Stagonospora nodorum blotch (SNB), a disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum) leaves, stems, and glumes. SNB occurs persistently, but with varying degrees of severity, in the eastern U.S. soft red winter wheat region. Acceptable levels of partial resistance are available in adapte...

salinity is one of the most limitation factors for crop production in agricultural systems due to the toxic effects and preventing water and nutrients absorption, in this research the efficiency of four strains of fluorescent pseudomonads on concentration of nutrient elements in rice was determined, under saline conditions. a pot experiment was carried out based on the factorial completely rand...

in order to evaluate the effects of biofertilizer on soybean (glycine max l.) seed vigor that produced under water deficit condition and related traits, an experiment was conducted in a factorial layout based of complete randomized block design with four replications at the research greenhouse of aboureihan campus- tehran university, iran. experimental treatments were include biofertilizer (see...

in order to study the effect of pyridate, bentazon and imazethapyr herbicides on chickpea growth, nodulation and biological nitrogen fixation, a greenhouse experiment was conducted at ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2010. experimental type was completely randomized design with four replications. treatments included pyridate, bentazon and imazethapyr herbicides application in 1200, 720 and 75 ...
