“…Dry matter production, Chl a , Chl b and leaf area at anthesis date were the highest at S.C.10 as compared to S.C.122 and S.C.124 the difference in chlorophyll content among hybrids are mainly attributed to the difference in genetical factors. These results supported those obtained by Bahr et al (2006), Szulc et al (2008) and Hafez et al (2014). Regarding the effect of nitrogen levels on dry matter production, Chl a , Chl b and leaf area, there were significantly increased with increasing nitrogen levels up to 150 kg N/fed at anthesis date in both successive seasons.…”

“…This in turn caused an increase in photosynthetic nitrogen levels. Similar results were obtained by Bahr et al (2006) and Hafez et al (2014). The increase in leaf area could possibly be ascribed to the fact that nitrogen increases plant growth and plant height and this resulted in more nodes and internodes and subsequently more production of le12345aves (Amin, 2011).…”

FIELD experiment was conducted in two successive seasons 2012 and 2013 at the experimental farm, faculty of agriculture, Kafrelsheikh University, Egypt, to investigate the effect of different nitrogen levels on growth, yield and quality of grains and forage of some maize hybrids (Zea mays L.). A split plot design with four replicates was used. Main plots consisted of four nitrogen levels (60, 90, 120 and 150 kg urea/fed) and subplots, including three hybrids of maize (S.C.10, S.C.122 and S.C.124). Results indicated that the effect of nitrogen fertilizer and hybrids effects on chlorophyll a and b, leaf area, the number of grains per ear, number of grains per row, 100 grain weight of maize, grain yield were significant. The S.C.10 was significantly higher than other hybrids in all traits under study except shelling percentage and crude fiber %, which could increase palatability and digestibility of the hybrid. There was no significant difference occur among hybrids in crude fat in both seasons. N management by the application of 150 kg N/fed produced significantly more leaf area, number of grains row-1 , number of grains ear-1 ,100-grain weight (g), grain yield (ard /fed), crude fat (%), fresh forage yield (ton/fed, protein (%) in forage yield and grain protein (%) however it had the lowest crude fiber %. Furthermore, there was not find significant difference among N fertilizer levels on oil (%) and moisture (%), however, application of 120 kg N/fed. produced significantly more shelling (%) and fresh forage yield (ton/fed). Thus, it concluded that applying 150 kg N/fed for S.C.10. could be used successfully for improving production of maize grain and forage yield as well as quality traits.

Saline-sodic soil is considered as a serious problem which could negatively affect rice water use efficiency, plant growth, and yield. Therefore, the objective of the current study was to investigate the effects of gypsum applied before sowing (i.e. gypsum and without gypsum) and irrigation interval treatments applied after anthesis (irrigation every 4, 6, 8 days) on chemical characterizations of clay saline-sodic soil. In addition, the effect of these treatments on rice growth, water use efficiency and related parameters and yield were investigated. A significant higher efficiency in reclamation of clay saline-sodic soil was obtained in terms of reducing SAR, Na +

RANSLOCATION of dry matter (DM) and nitrogen (N) in…. barley (Hordeum vulgare L. Giza 2000) subjected to desiccated conditions during pre and post heading in moderately salt-affected soil are important for food production. Nitrogen and water utilization efficiencies are paid an attention in the current investigation and prospected into account of both economic production and environment. The aim of the current study was to investigate the effects of water treatments [fully watering (FW) and desiccated watering (DW)] in response to five N applications 0, 35, 70,105 and 140 kg N ha -1 (0,15,30,45 and 60 kg N fed .-1 ) (ha.=2.38 fed) on N harvest index (NHI), N and DM translocation, N contribution, nitrogen use efficiency (NUE), nitrogen utilization efficiency (NUtE), N uptake efficiency (NUpE), apparent fertilizer N recovery (AFNR) and water utilization efficiency (WUtE) of barley. The application of either 105 or 140 kg N ha -1 resulted in the highest grain yield, NHI, DM translocation, N contribution and WUtE. Increasing the N application up to 70 kg N ha -1 resulted in the highest NUpE. NUE and NUtE were increased by increasing N application from 35 to 70 kg N ha -1 , and were decreased gradually when higher N application was applied. On the other hand, there were no significant differences between the effects of water treatments on all above mentioned parameters, this could due to the timing of water application during water deficit. In conclusion, there were no significant between water treatments in terms of NHI, N and DM translocation, N contribution, NUE, NUtE, N uptake efficiency (NUpE), AFNR and WUtE, which support the hypothesis of better performance for barley plants when grown in desiccated conditions at 105 kg N -1 in moderately saltaffected soil.
