in order to evaluate the impact of different amounts of nitrogen fertilizer on growth and yield of two forage sorghum cultivars, a 2-year field experiment was carried out at the college of agriculture, shiraz university, shiraz, iran during 2010 and 2011 growing seasons. two factorial experiments were carried out in randomized block design with three replicates, in which the treatments included...

in order to study of some effective phenologic and physiologic characteristics on 18 sunflower hybrids yield under optimum conditions, an experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications at the research field of seed and plant improvement institute-karaj in 2006-2007. the result indicated that the hybrids showed significant difference in phonologic characteri...

The pelagic juvenile stage of sea turtles is poorly studied. We present a growth model and estimates for duration of the pelagic juvenile stage for loggerhead sea turtles Caretta caretta in the North Atlantic based on length-frequency analyses and sizes of young-of-the-year stranded in the Azores. The size-specific growth model is a monotonic, nonlinear, declining function. The growth model is ...

deficit of oil seeds and high volume of oil imports in iran, and limitation of water sources against production of many oil seed crops, demonstrate the importance of detection tolerant species and cultivars for stressful conditions and their most sensitive growth stages to saline stress. in order to study response of spring safflowers (carthamus tinctorius l.) genotypes to disruption irrigation...

sunflower is one of the most important edible oil that growth of annual crops, it is grown over a widely area and is considered a crop adapted to an every environmental conditions, in order to study growth analysis of sunflower under sowing date and cultivars in dry condition a farm experiment was conducted a split plot arranged in a complete randomized block design with three replications in t...

in order to determine the critical period of weed control and investigation the effect of periodical control and interference of weeds natural population on yield and yield components of winter canola (brassica napus l. cv. okapi) in west region of tehran an experiment was carried out at research field of tarbiat modarres university, tehran, iran on 2004-5 growing season. fourteen experimental ...

The ‘Moult Rate’ (MR) method has been used widely to derive stage-specific growth rates in juvenile copepods. It is the most common field-based method. Unfortunately, the equation underlying the method is wrong and, consequently, large errors in juvenile growth rate estimates are widespread. The equation derives growth from the mean weight of 2 consecutive stages (i and i + 1) and the duration ...
