to study the effect of seed treatment on damage of harmful moths of sugar beet, an experiment was conducted in rcbd with nine treatments in four replications in karaj for three years (1996-1998). the treatments were applied as follows: t1, check, t2, t3 and t4, sugar beet seeds treated with imidacloprid, fibronil and orten, respectively; t5, pelleted seeds without insecticide; t6, t7 and t8, pe...

An opto-electronic sensor system for measuring seed spacing uniformity with different types of seeds is described in this paper. It consisted of a rectangular photogate block (124 × 92 mm) with 24 phototransistors (diameter, 3 mm) receiving light beams from 24 light emitting diodes (diameter, 3 mm) opposite them, a digital input/output board in a personal computer, and power supplies. The opto-...

progressive usage of medicinal plants has necessitated their mass production using the minimum amounts of chemical inputs. to find out the effects of urea and pelleted animal manure and some micronutrients on yield and its components in pumpkin, a split plot experiment based on rcbd with three replicates was conducted at the research farm of abouraihan campus, university of tehran in 2011. the ...

Seed vigor is an important trait for tobacco production. However, the evaluation of seed using molecular biomarkers scarcely reported in tobacco. In this study, development marker isopropylmalate synthase NtIPMS was conducted to detect ageing degree and priming effect Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis showed that expression significantly induced at initial imbibition stage during ge...

To evaluate the effects of the pelleting and the addition of sodium monensin on production, the chemical and lipid composition of milk and butter physical characteristics, 4 Holstein dairy cows (135 days of lactation) with an average milk production of 14.7 kg/d, were supplemented with a concentrate containing ground canola seeds. The cows were assigned to a 4×4 Latin square design with a 2×2 f...

Faced with the contrasting results of inoculation and co-inoculation in bean crop, an experiment was carried out pots, objective evaluating performance plant treatments inoculated or co-inoculated Rhizobium tropici Azospirillum brasilense, via seeds, without chemical treatment fungicide insecticide, combined 4 top-dressing nitrogen doses (0, 30, 60, 120 kg ha-1), a ‘Latossolo Vermelho-Amarelo d...

Maintenance, expressed as change in daily body mass, and survival rates of Mastomys natalensis (sensu lato) were recorded from May to September 1994 in laboratory feeding trials, to investigate the short-term effects of a carbaryl insecticide on these variables. Individuals were subjected to seeds treated with carbaryl insecticide in three different treatments (5, 10, and 20 g of carbaryl/kg of...
