Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus inocula from coastal sand dunes arrest olive cutting growth under salinity stress
(2020)Cultivation of olive trees covers large coastal areas of land in Mediterranean regions, many of them characterized by low soil fertility and exposed to salinity and seasonal drought. In this frame, we developed mixed ... -
Aspects of marine spatial planning and governance: Adapting to the transboundary nature and the special conditions of the sea
(2018)Extension of spatial planning from land to the marine space has recently become a key procedure for tackling the growing environmental and blue growth related challenges. However, given the transboundary nature of the sea ... -
The combined and single effect of salinity and copper stress on growth and quality of Mentha spicata plants
(2019)Copper is essential for plant growth, but in excess may cause adverse effects on plant physiology. Harmful effects are also caused by plant exposure to salinity (NaCl) due to the excessive use of fertilizers, soil degradation ... -
A Comparison between Variable Deficit Irrigation and Farmers’ Irrigation Practices under Three Fertilization Levels in Cotton Yield (Gossypium hirsutum L.) Using Precision Agriculture, Remote Sensing, Soil Analyses, and Crop Growth Modeling
(2022)The major global challenge for the coming decades will be increasing crop production with less water consumption. Precision agriculture (PA) and variable deficit irrigation (VDI) are management strategies that help farmers ... -
Crop water status assessment in controlled environment using crop reflectance and temperature measurements
(2017)Crop water status is an important parameter for plant growth and yield performance in greenhouses. Thus, early detection of water stress is essential for efficient crop management. The dynamic response of plants to changes ... -
Effect of benzoic acid and combination of benzoic acid with a probiotic containing Bacillus Cereus var. toyoi in weaned pig nutrition
(2011)The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of a probiotic containing Bacillus cereus var. Toyoi spores (Toyocerin (R)) and benzoic acid (VevoVitall (R)) on growth performance and diarrhoea in weaning pigs, against ... -
The effect of different dietary protein levels on growth performance and nutrient utilization of snarpsnout sea bream (Diplodus puntazzo)
(2022)This study evaluated the effects of different dietary protein levels on growth performance and nutrient utilization of snarpsnout sea bream (Diplodus puntazzo) juveniles. Five isoenergetic diets were formulated to contain ... -
Effect of fishmeal replacement by hydrolyzed feather meal on growth performance, proximate composition, digestive enzyme activity, haematological parameters and growth-related gene expression of gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata)
(2020)Two feeding trials were conducted to examine the replacement of fishmeal (FM) by hydrolyzed feather meal (HFM) in the diet of juvenile gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata). In trial I (100 days), three isonitrogenous (500 g ... -
Effect of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist treatment on growth hormone secretion in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome
(1998)The suppression of the pituitary-gonadal axis by the administration of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRH-a) is used occasionally as an adjunct therapy with gonadotrophins for ovulation induction in women with ... -
The effect of insect meal as a feed ingredient on survival, growth, and metabolic and antioxidant response of juvenile prawn Palaemon adspersus (Rathke, 1837)
(2020)For successful prawn aquaculture, feeds should be based on readily consumed ingredients that promote survival and optimal growth performance. This pilot study investigates the rearing of juvenile Baltic prawn Palaemon ... -
Effect of Stocking Density on Growth and Survival of Sub-Adult Tench (Tinca tinca Linnaeus 1758)
(2012)Three hundred and fifty-nine (359) sub-adult tench were allocated to twelve tanks to investigate the effect of stocking density on survival and growth. The experimental population consisted of two weight groups (small = ... -
Effect of Tillage System and Rimsulfuron Application on Weed Flora, Arbuscular Mycorrhizal (AM) Root Colonization and Yield of Maize (Zea mays L.)
(2012)Field experiments were conducted to determine the effects of tillage system and rimsulfuron application on weed flora and growth of maize (Zen mays L. Mitic F1) at a site with no history of pesticide use for the last 5 ... -
The effects of pathogen challenges on the performance of naive and immune animals: the problem of prediction
(2007)Predictive frameworks for performance under both physical and social stressors are available, but no general framework yet exists for predicting the performance of animals exposed to pathogens. The aim of this paper was ... -
Effects of salinity and temperature on the performance of Cymodocea nodosa and Ruppia cirrhosa: A medium-term laboratory study
(2019)The effects of salinity and temperature on the photosynthetic and growth performance of the seagrasses Cymodocea nodosa and Ruppia cirrhosa were studied to understand their local seasonality and distribution. Cymodocea ... -
Effects of sheep bone biochar on soil quality, maize growth, and fractionation and phytoavailability of Cd and Zn in a mining-contaminated soil
(2021)Biochar prepared from various feedstock materials has been utilized in recent years as a potential stabilizing agent for heavy metals in smelter-contaminated soils. However, the effectiveness of animal bone-derived biochar ... -
