The experiment was carried out during2013-2014 Miaar Shaker village (Tartous) to determine the best method of irrigation on growth and productivity of Tomato plant in plastic green-house. Three method of irrigation were used in the experiment :(furro
w surface , surface drip and subsurface drip irrigation). Growth of plants, productivity and fruit quality were studies.
The results showed that surface and subsurface drip irrigation give more plant growth (leaves number and leaves area) more flowering and fruit production as compared with furrow irrigation method .The leaves number and leaves area in plant with surface drip irrigation was 31.49 leaves and 17078/plant while these number reached only to 22.91 leaves and 7057.86/plant in the furrow irrigation with significant difference . The productivity of plants was also higher in surface drip irrigation method(4.75 kg/ plant) without significant difference as compared with subsurface irrigation method and with significant difference as compared with furrow irrigation method (3.95 kg/ plant). The quality of fruits was better in surface drip irrigation (8.28% dry material ,5.02% TSS and 28.23mg vitamin c /100g) in fresh matter while these number were 7.18%, 4.98% and 20.96 mg/100g in furrow .
The irrigation method haven't affect in the: plant length ,and acidity percentage.
The aim of this research is to determine the role of mineral (NPK) and organic fertilization (Chicken manure, Cow manure and Chicken with Cow manure) on vegetative growth and flowering of Zinnia (Zinnia elegans). This research also examines the possi
bility of relying on this organic manure to present nutrients for the plant in order to reduce mineral fertilization.
The results show that the use of NPK (30, 20, 20 g/m2) or Chicken manure (2Kg/m2) has a positive impact on vegetative growth (plant height and average number of branches andleaves on the plant). They also show a positive effect on the flower developmentand flowering (early flowering, number of flowers and flower volume). These positive effects are reflected on the proportion of dry matter both in the vegetative and flowering part. The results indicate that plants fertilized with NPK or Chicken manure realize higher economic profit than the control and those fertilized with Cow manure.
This research aimsto study the effect of single and mixed infection of Potato Y Virus (PVY) and Cucumber mosaic virus(CMV) on the number of leaves, number of branches, plant height and stem circumference of tomato plants (cv.Elegro and Local). The ex
periment was carried out in 2012 in a greenhouse in Tartous. Results show that the interactions in both varieties to virus infections are different. The mixed infections cause slight and weak effects compared to single infections. This is probably due to the antagonistic relationship between Potato Y virus and Cucumber mosaic virus and their effects on mean number of leaves, mean number of branches, mean height of plants, and mean stem circumference. Tomato plants' stems were (Elegro 106.42, 16.75, 103.58 cm, 4.84cm.; Local 94.42,15, 87.17 cm, 4.59 cm, respectively). Consequently, the timing of mixed infection playsarole in appearance, development and effect on other viruses.
This paper tests the relationship between economic growth and human
development using annual data from Syria for the period 1970-2000. This
period is chosen for two reasons; firstly because of its political and economic
homogeneity which is conduc
tive to arrive at accurate results and secondly
because the significant changes in the Syrian government's policies in the
fields of education and health like the opining for the first time of private
universities and open learning programs and the involvement of the private
sector in providing health services and health insurance.
The research was performed in AL-Gab region, Hama Province during the agricultural
season 2012-2013. The investigation was carried out to assess five varieties of muskmelon
from central Asia "Gezel Zametsha, Ak Gorbek, Pakeraman, Kara Kaon, Ak Kash
", plus
control (Ananas Hollar)
The results showed that two varieties "Ak Kash and Kara Kaon " had better leaf area,
while the variety of "Ak Gorbek" had more number of feminine blossoms on the plant and
higher percentage of node blooms. "Kara Kaon" Which gave high productivity 6850 Kg/Dunm
in comparison with the control 4724 Kg/Dunm to "Ananas Hollar".
A strong Correlation link had been found out between the area of leaf surface and
productivity. The number of feminine blossoms and the percentage of the node productive
blooms. But a strong negative link was found between the number of picked fruit and average
weight of the fruit.
An experiment was conducted in agricultural college arboretum that belong to
tishreen university on okra during the growing season of 2013-2014 to investigate the
effect of spraying by organic fertilizers and growing point pinching on the growth an
d
yield.
The experiment include 8 treatments as control (without spraying by organic
fertilizers or growing point pinching), two kinds of organic fertilizers (ultra humic acid and
amino vega) with or without growing point pinching. Plots were completely randomized
over the experimental area having four replicates for each treatment. Each replicate
contained 14 plants.
Results showed that the highest values of vegetative growth parameters are stem
length branch number ,leave number per plant due to the interaction between pinching of
growing point and spraying by ultra humic acid and amino vega . The experiment results
revealed also ,that the highest yield and The largest number and weight of fruits was
produced from growing point pinching and spraying by ultra humic acid and amino vega,
compared to all other treatments.
This study aimed to obtain seedlings balanced and superior in growth, by searching
the effect of seed size on the growth and development of seedlings of carob tree
( Ceratonia siliqua L.) developing in containers Minirhizotron in the growth room in
Research Center in Bouka-Lattakia. Seeds were divided into three categories (large-size
LS, control CS, small-sized SS) and studied several quantities indicators of growth and
development of the total shoot and root of the seedlings for a period of three months.
For a radical system, results indicated a high significant superiority in the large
seeds values for the main root of the overall growth rate such as length (cm) and the speed
of growth (cm/3days) and secondary roots (total number, total length/cm) height to control
and small seeds. And the significant superiority of the seeds of the control on the small
seeds.
It has also given large seeds higher values regarding all indicators related to the shoot
system such as average diameter and average height and average number of phalanges
stem and leaves, and ending with the dry weight of shoots.
Results for the study of periodic growth curves for the main root and main stem of
the three treatments indicated the presence of a great similarity in the overall appearance of
these curves, which refers that the appearance is not affected by this change in the amount
of seed size. On the other hand, the phenomenon was observed in contrast growth
Antagonism clearly between the totals shoot and root with any end to the growth of main
root accompanied by a junior at the end of the main stem growth and vice versa.
This research aims to study the effect of different treatments of potato plants with a
feeding organ on the growth and yield of potato crop and on the quality of tubers. The
Romano variety of potato was used, and the commercial organic feeder "plan
t energy
1000" was applied in four treatments. The treatments were: a control and three ways for
treating the plants with the organic feeder: by roots, foliage spray, and by both in one
treatment.
The completely randomized design was adopted in this experiment. The experiment
was implemented in the nursery farm of Tishreen University in the spring planting season
of 2012.
The results showed that treating potato plants with the organic feeder led in general
to an increase in the growth, which was reflected in the increase in the fresh weight, total
leaf area and its indication, as well as in the quality and number of tubers, total production
and marketing quality. These results were clearer in the case of the joint treatment: root
feeding and foliage spray together. This treatment showed significant superiority in
increasing production and improving its quality.
The study was conducted in 2011 on 6-years-old citrus trees "Washington navel
141". It contained four treatments with three replicates for each treatment. The results
showed that:
The wastewater treatments showed superiority on the control in the
number of
vegetative growth and its length.
The number of inflorescence buds, was increased in the second treatment (irrigation
with 50% treated wastewater +50% normal water) (5. 37) which dominated the other
treatments.
The weight of fruit was affected by treated wastewater irrigation. Second treatment
(irrigation with 50%treated wastewater+50 % normal water) was better than the control
treatment. It was increased by (308. 3 g) compared to (259. 5 g) for the control treatment.
Fruit yield production per tree, was increased by second treatment (irrigation with
50% treated wastewater+50 % normal water) (28. 9kg) compared to (15. 3kg) for the
control.
Treated wastewater irrigation had positive effects in the quality of fruit
(Total sugar %), (T. S. S %) and the coefficient of maturity were increased in second and
third treatment compared to other treatments, while (T. A %) was decreased in all
wastewater treatments.
The research aimed to study the effect of size of container on the growth of
seedlings pepper "Snapper". Two different sizes of plastic containers, with
dimensions 8×8 cm and12×12 cm were used, Results showed that the use of
containers with large
dimensions had increased the growth of seedlings
compared with the use of smaller ones. A significant increase, of about 14%
was observed in the average length of seedlings and about 16% in the average
number of leaves produced in the large containers as compared with seedlings
produced in smaller ones. Also the fresh wet weight, whether for the plant or its
separate parts was significantly higher in seedlings produced in the large
containers. The plant fresh wet weight in the large container was 26.98 g vs.,
2.27 g in the smaller ones.
