The effect of clay soil treatment with two levels of tobacco west compost and
organic fertilizer (15 and 30 ton/ h), in addition to mineral fertilizer treatment, with three
replicates of each treatment on some physical properties (Aggregate size di
stribution, main
weight diameter, bulk density and porosity) and chemical properties (Organic carbon,
humic and volvic acid and humification index for big and small soil aggregates was
studied.
The results showed that tobacco west compost and organic fertilizer were effective in
increment of soil content of organic carbon, which reached (20 and 26%) for organic
fertilizer, and (39 and 45%) for compost compared to the control, conducing to ameliorate
soil physical properties, where The main weight diameter, stable aggregate rate and soil
porosity were increased. Whereas, bulk density decreased significantly in both treatments
compared to the control. Compost treatment affect soil physical properties more than
organic fertilizer.Mineral fertilizer decreased soil content of organic carbon compared to
the control.
Humic and volvic acids contents were between 2.12 and 74.3 mg/kg aggregates in
the control,and compost treatments alternatively in macro aggregates (> 2mm). Wile,
volvic acid values were between 0.93 mg/kg in control for small aggregates (< 0.25), and
3.17 mg/kg aggregates in mineral fertilizer treatment for (0.25 – 2) aggregates.
Humification index values were less than 2 in macro aggregates, while it was bigger than 2
in small aggregates.
Due to the lack informations on Biochemical of jellyfish in the Syrian waters, the
aim of this paper is determining the nutritional value and organic content for each of the
species Rhopilemanomadica, Pelagianoctiluca and Aequorea forskalea, and co
mpared the
biochemical composition of the three types , so the comparison showed clear differences in
the content of organic material, the sugar were the most concentrated in the three species
and lipid comes in second class, and then followed by the protein content and organic
carbon.A.forskalea was the most containing sugar and R.nomadica the most lipids content,
and P.noctiluca were the most protein content.R.nomadic was the highest content in
organic carbon, R.nomadica and P.noctiluca were convergent contents of organic
phosphorus, while the least contain of organic nitrogenwas in A.forskalea.
The experiment was carried out at Jableh region during 2012-2013 in two green
houses to study the effects of using the bumble bees and organic carbon to improve flower
set and yield of tomato hybrid Dalloula . The experiment included three treatmen
ts :
natural pollination (control) ,flowers pollination by organic carbon, and flowers pollination
by bumble bees . The first and second treatments were applied in the first green house , and
the third treatment was applied in the second green house . Results showed that the bumble
bees treatment produced significantly the highest percentage of flower set and yield than
the other treatments . Flower set of tomato over 10 clusters was 89.8% , 83.7% , 39.2% for
bumble bees treatment, organic carbon treatment, and control , respectively. The highest
yield (22 kg/m2)was obtained from bumble bees treatment . Flowers pollinated by bumble
bees gave fruits that looked better in shape , size and color ,and with higher weights . In
the bumble bee pollinated flowers , the quality of fruits was superior for vitamin C , sugar
and acidity .
