Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMULTI-TRAITS OF NON-PATHOGENIC FLUORESCENT PSEUDOMONAS AND EVALUATION OF THEIR POTENTIEL AS BIOCONTROL AGENTSMehri Inès, Turki Yousra, Ben Rajeb Asma et al.In recent years, certain strains of fluorescent pseudomonads called PGPB have drawn attention due to their abilities to promote plant growth. Therefore, in this investigation, we have explored the adhesive properties, the phytostimulator effects and the biocontrol activities of 40 isolates, with the aim to select potential inoculants to improve crop yields. Ten different colony morphotypes were detected on CRA … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 16 Apr 2014 · 7,236 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractValidation of the Ceres-Wheat for Prediction of Wheat Varieties in Irrigation and Terminal Drought StressFarzad Paknejad, Fatemeh Majidi Fakhr, Seied Mehdi MirtaheriProblem statement: Crop growth models have many potential uses for crop managements. Approach: In order to evaluation of CERES-Wheat model on five varieties of winter wheat in Karaj weather condition in Full Irrigation (FI) and Stop Irrigation (SI) after flowering until final growth stage an experiment conducted in shape of split plot in based on randomize complete block design with … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 16 Mar 2012 · 7,723 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation of Soybean Growth under Sowing Date Management by CROPGRO ModelFarzad Paknejad, Pouria Farahani Pad, Mohammad Nabi Ilkaee, Faezeh FazeliProblem statement: Always because of weather change, determine of optimum sowing date in each zone is difficult.
