Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleFoliar and Soil Application of Potassium Nitrate Affects the Tolerance of Salinity and Canopy Growth of Perennial Ryegrass (Lolium perenne var Boulevard)S.J. Tabatabaei, F. FakhrzadTwo experiments were conducted to determine the effect of KNO3 application on perennial ryegrass salinity tolerance. Two NaCl levels (0 and 60 mM) factorially combined with four KNO3 (KN) levels (0, 5, 10 and 15 mM) as the treatments. The KN was applied either to the soil or foliarly sprayed. The results showed that in both experiments the increased salinity … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,052 accessesView PDF Cite

A study in Malaysia had shown a strain of Trichoderma viride and Bacillus megaterium were isolated from the soil. Questions were raised whether the tow inoculants compatible to be mixed in same carrier? It is important to develop … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,717 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Animal Manure Application Rates on Soil Moisture Conservation at, Somali Regional State, EthiopiaTekilil WoldeThe Ethiopian economy is mainly agrarian. It employs 85% of the population and contributes 45% of the gross domestic product and 90% of the national export earnings but agriculture in Ethiopia is dominated by rainfed farming with low productivity specially dry land part of the country like Somali region. As a result, crops have severe moisture stress through their growth … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 15 Aug 2019 · 7,744 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEVALUATION OF NITROGEN APPLICATION METHODS AND RATES WITH NUTRISPHERE-N ON SOIL NITRATE-NITROGEN IN SOUTHEASTERN COASTAL PLAINSPawel WiatrakNitrogen (N) application with Nutrisphere-N polymer may affect soil Nitrate-Nitrogen (NO3-N) movement in the soil. The objective was to evaluate two N application methods (all at planting and split application) and five N rates (0, 45, 90, 135 and 180 kg N ha-1) with Nutrisphere-N polymer on soil NO3-N in dryland corn (Zea mays L.) near Blackville, SC from 2010 … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 23 Dec 2013 · 7,490 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffects of Mixed Organic and Inorganic Fertilizers Application on Soil Properties and the Growth of Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L.) Cultivated on Bris SoilsMohd Hadi Akbar Basri, Arifin Abdu, Shamshuddin Jusop et al.The demand for kenaf in the world increases rapidly by the years. Cultivation of the crop in Malaysia is a challenging task, especially when kenaf is grown on sandy soils with low fertility, such as the BRIS Soils (Beach Ridges Interspersed with Swales). A pot study was conducted in a glasshouse at Universiti Putra Malaysia to evaluate the potential of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 28 Oct 2013 · 8,772 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePhysiological Response of Soybean (Glycine max) to Foliar Application of Methanol Under Different Soil MoisturesFarzad Paknejad, Mojtaba Mirakhori, Majid Jami Al-Ahmadi et al.Problem statement: Many cultivated area are situated in arid zone, where crop photosynthesis and productivity has limited by drought. Thus any treatment, such as methanol, that improve plant water relation and reduce stress impacts, could be benefit. Approach: In order to investigate effects of methanol application on some physiological properties of soybean under low water stress, a factorial experiment was … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,150 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMicrobial Response to the Application of Amendments in a Contaminated Soil with Trace ElementsA. Branzini, M. S. Zubillaga, M. M. ZubillagaProblem Statement: The anthropogenic activities can cause adverse effects in soils, increasing in some situations trace elements contents, impacting negatively both the microbial biomass and activity. Among the practices used for the recovery of soil quality we can find the application of organic amendments or the product of their composting. These can adsorb trace elements decreasing their availability and increasing … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,177 accessesView PDF Cite
