Field and laboratory experiments were conducted during the course of study to
test if the sunflower residues along or with 50% full rate of trifluralin herbicide has
any impact on mycorrhizal association and soil nitrification which are important
processes for improving growth and productivity of crops. Results revealed that
incorporation of sunflower residues significantly increased spores number at 2, 4
and 6 weeks of residue decomposition compared to control treatment. However,
when the residues applied in combination with reduced rate of trifluralin herbicide,
sporulation was appreciably decreased by sunflower residues at 3 t ha-1 but it
remains almost the same at 6 t ha-1 rate of residues. Field soil amended with label
rate of trifluralin showed lower sporulation during the first six weeks from
beginning of the experiment. Colonization rate was appreciably increased by
application of sunflower residues at 6 t ha-1 and decreased by label rate of herbicide
and weed free treatments. The highest colonization intensity (83.4) was recorded by
application of sunflower residues at 6 t ha-1, followed by treatment of sunflower
residues at 3 t ha-1 (72.2). Label rate of herbicide recorded the least colonization
intensity (54.4). Incorporation of sunflower residues at 3 and 6 t ha-1 significantly
reduced nitrification rate at all incubation periods in comparison to control.
However, when the residues was applied along with the reduced rate of herbicide,
nitrification rate was significantly increased over the sole application of sunflower
residues at all incubation periods except 4 and 8 days incubation periods but it
remains below control. Soil sterilization treatment showed the least nitrification rate
at all incubation periods. In all bioassay experiments, the amounts of NH4
+
converted
in the incubated soil was significantly correlated with the amount of NO3
- produced
over the periods of incubation suggesting that soil incubation is efficient method that
can be used for measuring nitrification process.It can conclude Sunflower residues
amended in field soil was found to provide a good medium for growing Glomus
mosseae fungus and best way to inhibited nitrification rate and thus may contribute
in alleviating losses of NO3 used by plants and reducing the environmental
pollution.
Albizia lebbeck biomass was used as an adsorbent material in the present study to remove methyl red dye from an aqueous solution. A central composite rotatable design model was used to predict the dye removal efficiency. The optimization was accomplished under a temperature and mixing control system (37?C) with different particle size of 300 and 600 ?m. Highest adsorption efficiencies were obtained at lower dye concentrations and lower weight of adsorbent. The adsorption time, more than 48 h, was found to have a negative effect on the removal efficiency due to secondary metabolites compounds. However, the adsorption time was found to have a positive effect at high dye concentrations and high adsorbent weight. The colour removal effi

The chemical and physical parameters of the reaction of BH-HCl with tetraphenylborate to produce a yellowish-white precipitate were determined using an ISNAG fluorimeter analyzer and diverging light at 90°. The calibration curve for BH-HCl was linear with correlation coefficients of 0.9994 and linearity percentage r2% = 99.87 over a concentration range of 0.01-20 mmol/L, L.O.D = 0.3610 µg/125µL (0.007 mmol/L), and RSD% less than 0.3% for 3 and 13 mmol/L (five replicates). This approach was efficiently used to estimate the levels of BH-HCl in two distinct pharmaceutica

The theater has live foundations that interact with all symbols and signs. It has never been far from these innovations and developments in the manner of dealing with those symbols and how and the extent of their effects on society through the world of technology because the theatrical performance contributes to its structure, a technique that is employed by designers in various technologies such as ( Music, lighting and sound effects engineer, as well as fashion designer, architecture, and modeling designer). The theater today also relied on various interactive techniques represented in the use of body language and a sign in order to communicate the meaning by forming movements, singing and dancing in order for the recipient to interact

And by applying to the Iraqi mechanical carpet factory, the research reached several conclusions, the most important of which is the presence of several sources of waste and loss, such as activities and operations that do not add value, whi

They are extra-articular fractures of the radius proximal to the bicipital tuberosity. The physis is typically involved as a Salter-Harris I or II pattern. Alternatively, the fracture sometimes is extraphyseal, through the metaphysis. In children there is considerable potential for remodeling after these fractures. Up to 30° of radial head tilt and up to 3 mm of transverse displacement are acceptable. Many modalities of treatment are available regarding Surgical &Non-Surgical treatments. Objectives: To evaluate the functional outcome after surgical percutaneous joystick reduction therapy of severely angulated radial neck fracture i
