a greenhouse experiment was conducted using completely randomised design (factorial) with three replications to study the residual effect of organic manures (municipal solid waste compost and cow manure), zinc (0 and 50 kgha-1) and boron (0 and 10 kg.ha-1) by using znso4 and h3bo3 salts respectively, (applied earlier for millet (panicum italicum l.) crop) on soil properties and chemical composi...

Thyme is a valuable plant used in medicine, perfumery and food industry. Mineral deficiencies often limit the growth of plants. Nitrogen deficiency in agricultural soils is a problem throughout the world. The present study evaluated effects of applying Fe and Zn in absorption of some important nutrients of Thymus vulgaris...

objective: in order to study the effect of drought stress, salicylic acid (sa) and  jasmonic acid (ja) foliar application on hill reaction and photosynthetic pigments. methods:experiment was done as factorial on the basis of completely randomized design in 4 replications. irrigation in 3 levels (fc,   fc and  fc), salicylic acid in 2 levels (0 and 0.5 mm) and jasmonic acid in 2 levels (0 and 50...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the foliar application of zinc (15, 30 and 50 mg/L) and iron (50 and 100 mg/L) and their combination on vegetative, reproductive growth, fruit quality and yield of cucumber plants as a factorial in completely randomized block design with four replications. Results indicated that different applied treatments significantly increased vegetative ...

In order to evaluate the effects of foliar application of micronutrients (iron and zinc) and different harvesting times during seed filling on yield and mucilage percentage of psyllium (Plantago psyllium), a field experiment was carried out in 2009 at the Research Farm of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran. The experiment was arranged as split plot based on randomize...

iron deficiency in soil reduces the quality of durum wheat leading to fe deficiency in human. thus, this experiment investigated the effects of foliar application of nano-iron oxide (2 and 4 g l-1), iron chelate (edta), (4 and 8 g l-1), iron sulfate (4 and 8 g l-1), and the control on grain yield and quality, yield components, chlorophyll and carotenoids contents, peroxidase (pox), catalase (ca...

The surface runoff potential of trifloxysulfuron {N-[(4,6-dimethoxy-2-pyrimidinyl)carbamoyl]-3-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoy)-pyridin-2-sulfonamide sodium salt} in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) production systems has not been evaluated. The objectives of this study were to (i) determine sorption/desorption coefficients for trifloxysulfuron; (ii) quantify foliar washoff of trifloxysulfuron when applied...
