Response of specific leaf area to light: comparative study of a large species set

Oikos, EarlyView.
Specific leaf area (SLA) is a commonly used proxy for the leaf economy spectrum in plants, separating species with low‐cost leaves (in terms of carbon) with short lifespan and hence fast turnover from species with high‐cost and long‐lived leaves. While SLA is used mainly for interspecific comparisons, it also varies within species both ontogenetically ...

APPLİCABİLİTY OF METHODS AND TECHNOLOGİES DRIP IRRIGATION IN THE AZERBAIJAN

International Journal of Research -GRANTHAALAYAH, 2019
With the proper conduct of the process low-intensity irrigation can not only dramatically reduce the consumption of water for irrigation agricultural crops, but also to provide the necessary climate for the plants and the supply of water and fertilizer in the required amount directly into korneobitaniya zone, which contributes to an earlier entry of ...

Microbial Contamination of Vegetables Irrigated with Sewage Effluent by the Drip Method

Journal of Food Protection, 1978
The effect of the drip irrigation method on microbial contamination of vegetables irrigated with wastewater was evaluated. The density of microbial contamination on surfaces of cucumbers and eggplants irrigated with sewage effluent was determined, using a controlled washing procedure. The fecal coliform count on vegetables irrigated with wastewater was
