Botanical Nematicides: A Review
(2012)Despite the uselfuness of nematicidal compounds in agricultural practices, some serious concerns are raised today about their excessive use leading to enhancement of biodegradation mechanisms in soil expressed as lack of ... -
The critical period for weed competition in parsley (Petroselinum crispum (Mill.) Nyman ex AW Hill) in Mediterranean areas
(2012)Weeds are one of the major limiting factors for economically viable parsley production. Field experiments were carried out in central Greece, in 2010 and 2011 to determine the effect of competition from a natural weed flora ... -
Cultivation and characterization of Cynara Cardunculus for solid biofuels production in the Mediterranean region
(2008)Technical specifications of solid biofuels are continuously improved towards the development and promotion of their market. Efforts in the Greek market are limited, mainly due to the climate particularity of the region, ... -
Effect of Melissa officinalis supplementation on growth performance and meat quality characteristics in organically produced broilers
(2014)1. A trial was conducted to study the effect of Melissa officinalis supplementation on organic broiler performance and meat chemical, microbiological, sensory and nutritional quality. 2. Male and female day-old Ross 308 ... -
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 temperature and relative humidity on the efficacy of spinetoram for the control of three stored product beetle species
(2013)The effect of temperature and relative humidity (r.h.) on the efficacy of spinetoram on wheat was investigated against three stored product insect species. Laboratory bioassays were conducted on wheat in all combinations ... -
Effects of Presowing Pulsed Electromagnetic Treatment of Tomato Seed on Growth, Yield, and Lycopene Content
(2014)The use of magnetic field as a presowing treatment has been adopted by researchers as a new environmental friendly technique. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of magnetic field exposure on tomato seeds ... -
Efficacy of different chemicals on shelf life extension of parsley stored at two temperatures
(2013)Four different chemical treatments, GA(3), 1-MCP, essential oils and nano-Cu, were applied immediately after harvest to Petroselinum crispum (Mill) plants. The efficacy of the above chemicals on shelf life extension of ... -
Evaluation of rootstocks for watermelon grafting with reference to plant development, yield and fruit quality
(2012)The effect of grafting and post-grafting temperature on the plant development of two watermelon cultivars at transplantation and on subsequent fruit quality was studied. Watermelon cv. Sugar Baby and Crimson Sweet were ... -
EVALUATION OF THE ALLELOPATHIC POTENTIAL OF QUINOA (CHENOPODIUM QUINOA WILLD.)
(2013)The allelopathic effects of three plant tissues of Chenopodium quinoa (leaves, roots and inflorescences) on oat growth were investigated using in vivo tests. Oat growth (fresh and dry weights of above and underground parts) ... -

(2015)This study presents the results of the response of Sparus aurata to three different musical stimuli, derived from the transmission (4 h per day, 5 days per week) of particular music pieces by Mozart, Romanza and Bach (140 ... -
GROWTH OF WEED AND CROP PLANTS UNDER CADMIUM STRESS AND THEIR PHYTOREMEDIATION POTENTIAL
(2009)Phytoremediation is a promising new technology to remediate ecosystems using certain plants that can accumulate and withstand relatively high concentrations of a pollutant. Growth traits and cadmium (Cd) uptake of two weeds ... -
Inflorescence characteristics, seed composition, and allometric relationships predicting seed yields in the biomass crop Cynara cardunculus
(2010)Cynara (Cynara cardunculus) is a perennial C(3) herb that has its potential as bioenergy crop. This paper aims (a) to derive empirical relationships to predict cynara seed yield per head and per unit area, avoiding laborious ... -
Investigation of pulsed electromagnetic field as a novel organic pre-sowing method on germination and initial growth stages of cotton
(2012)Two different pre-sowing techniques have been investigated for their influence in an important industrial plant, namely cotton. Priming methods are very useful for agricultural practices because they improve crop seedling ... -
