ABSTRACT An experiment was carried out at the Horticulture Farm‚ Bangladesh Agricultural University‚ Mymensingh during 1998-99 growing season to study the effect of nitrogen and plant spacing on the growth and yield of potato (var. Diamant). Different nitrogen levels viz. 0‚ 127.0‚ 190.5 and 254.0 kg N/ha significantly influenced plant height‚ foliage coverage‚ number of main stem per hill‚ days required for 80% maturity of the crop‚ fresh weight of haulm (g/hill)‚ number of tubers per hill‚

Savannah Booker‚ Dubie Dubin Research Plan Problem: What is the effect of gasoline fumes on bean plant growth? Hypothesis: If the bean plants are exposed in the presence of gasoline fumes for a longer period of time‚ then the plants will die more quickly. Procedures: 1. Place ten bean plants in each of five Rubbermaid clear plastic containers. 2. Let the bean plants sit for one week without being manipulated. 3. Leave the first container alone without manipulation.

Plant Adaptation Investigation Observations Samples of plants were obtained during the campus tour. In order survive in the harsh climate of deserts‚ plants must adapt in function‚ reproduction‚ support‚ and defense. Although plants on campus are watered frequently‚ they live in a mostly xeric environment. Three types of cacti were observed: organ pipe‚ prickly pear‚ and saguaro. The organ pipe contains no leaves and has narrow stems that carry out photosynthesis and store water. Neither the

The forest floor is full of nutrients which the large tree strive on giving the canopy effects and which houses so much plant and animal life. 2.

Why do you see them everywhere you go? How do they benefit us? Well‚ the floras are a very crucial object to this planet’s survival and all its living things.

Invasive plants: approaches and predictions I chose this topic because I want to know what is being done about the invasive plants and on our earth and how people have come up with ideas to prevent invasive plants . I have also chosen this topic just for my own knowledge. Aim: To determine if improving management as well as continuous effort will be needed to stop invaders. Hypothesis: it was expected that good management and continuous effort would be needed to stop any invaders. The source

While surface water pollution is often in the form of trash it can also be chemically based‚ such as gasoline or oil slicks floating on the water’s surface. Groundwater pollution refers to the effects of chemicals (such as pesticides) that seep through the ground and enter water sources that originate underground. Well water is groundwater‚ thus groundwater pollution can be extremely dangerous to the health of humans as well as to the health of

Period G Interspecific and Intraspecific Plant Competition Abstract A study was conducted to address the problem of interspecific and intraspecific competition among wheat and mustard plants. It was hypothesized that increasing the plant density‚ and therefore increasing intraspecific competition‚ would negatively impact the plant biomass. It was also hypothesized that interspecific competition would have a stronger negative effect on the plant biomasses. This was tested by planting varying

INTRODUCTION Those plants that have healing properties are termed as medicinal plants or herbs. The plant kingdom is divided into several groups‚ but the botanical classification is beyond the scope of this section. However‚ medicinal plants can be simply classified as trees‚ shrubs‚ woody perennials‚ annuals and biennials‚ and climbers. (http://eatt1.tripod.com/amp1.html) Medicinal plants consist of components of therapeutic values and have been used as remedies for human diseases
