One of the crucial elements for livestock and human nutrition is selenium and its deficiency or toxicity can harm human and livestock health. The present study is designed with the aim of studying the effect of different levels of selenium fertilizer (Selcote-Ultra) and cow manure on the uptake of selenium in tall fescue. For this purpose, a pot experiment with complete randomized block design ...

in order to estimate effects of drought stress on dry matter allocation of pinto bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.), an experiment was carried out as split plot based on complete randomized block design with four replications at zanjan university research farm. in this experiment,  two irrigation levels (optimum irrigation during growth season and post flowering drought stress) were set at main plots...

laboratory experiments were performed to determine the effect of various scarification treatments at four temperature regimes on germination of licorice seeds . a randomized complete block design with four replications was used. germination counts were made every day for 2 weeks. at 50c, none of the chemically and mechanically scarified and non scarified seeds germinated. at 15, 25, and 350...

a study was conducted in 2010 to investigate the effects of crude oil contaminated soil on biomass accumulation injatropha curcas seedlings in asaba, delta state, nigeria. oil levels used were 0.0, 2.0, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0 and 10.0% w/w. the trial was arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replications and monitored for 12 weeks after transplanting. results showed that contamination...

the aim of this experiment was the study of dry matter and nitrogen (n) accumulation, remobilization and harvest index in different wheat cultivars. five bread wheat cultivars (darya, kuhdasht, shiroudi, tajan and zagros) and two durum wheat cultivars (arya and dena) were studied under optimum growth conditions during 2008-2009 at research field of gorgan university of agricultural sciences and...

seven maize inbred lines were crossed in a complete diallel cross design at the seed and plant improvement institute, karaj, iran, during the 2006 growing season. the parents and 42 f1 hybrids were grown in the research field of islamic azad university of firoozabad, firoozabad, iran, using a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications, during the 2007 growing season. the ha...

to evaluate the growth regulatory effect of chlormequat chloride (ccc) under drought stress conditions on three barley cultivars, a field study was conducted under badjgah agro climatic conditions (altitude 1810 m, longitude 52° 46´, and latitude 29° 50´) during 2003-2004 growing season. a randomized complete block based split- split plot of four replications was employed with two moisture leve...
