Yield Response of Watermelon to Plant Density

Yield and Yield adjustments of nonprolific maize hybrids in response to plant population density

Evaluation of rootstocks for watermelon grafting with reference to plant development, yield and fruit quality

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 self-rooted or grafted onto rootstock RS 841 F1 (Cucurbita maxima × C. moschata) or bottlegourd [Lagenaria siceraria f. clavata] (year 1), plus L. siceraria f. pyrotheca (ye...

Yield Response of Watermelon and Muskmelon to L-Tryptophan Applied to Soil

This study was conducted to determine the influence of L-tryptophan (LTRP) applied to soil on the yield of two watermelon (Citrullus Lanatus L.) and one muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) cultivars. Experiments were established in which L-TRP was applied to seedlings as a soil drench in the glasshouse ranging from 6 × 10 to 60 mg·kg soil; the seedlings were transplanted into the field 2 weeks later. T...

response growth and yield to plant density and row space under rainfed conditions in wheat

in order to evaluation of plant densities and row spacing effects on growth and yield of wheat, an experiment was conducted by using four plant densities (125, 250, 375 and 500 plants per m2),two row spacing (12.5 and 25 cm), in a randomized complete block design with three replicates in anbare-ololum reign in rainfed and saline conditions during 2008-2009. results showed that leaf area index (...

Effect of plant growth regulators, fruit thinning, boron and calcium on growth indexs and seed yield of watermelon nuts

Watermelon nuts is widely cultivated in Khorasan Razavi for its edible seed production. Two experiments were therefore, conducted to increase seed production in Bahonar University of Kerman Research Station in 2013 and 2014. In first year, the effects of gibberellic acid (0 and 50 mg/l) and fruit number (1, 2 and 3 fruits /plant) were studied in 4 populations. In second year, the effects of 24-...
