Effects of TrimaxTM on the Physiology, Growth, and Yield of Cotton
نویسندگان
چکیده
Trimax is a new insecticide from Bayer CropScience specifically for use on cotton for control of major sucking/piercing insects in cotton. In addition, significant yield enhancement benefits have been observed even in situations without economic insect thresholds. However, information is lacking on how Trimax affects plant growth and thereby enhances yield. The current study was designed to understand plant growth response to foliar application of Trimax with particular emphasis on the physiological and biochemical changes that occur and how these may affect the development of yield.

Wheat–cotton double cropping practices on a large scale in cotton belt of the Yellow RiverValley and the Yangtze River Valley in China. Field experiments were conducted to determinethe effects of wheat–cotton double cropping on cotton biomass accumulation and yieldformation during 2011/12 and 2012/13 growing seasons. Two cotton cultivars, Siza 3 (mid–latematurity) and CCRI 50 (early maturity), ...
متن کاملInvestigating critical growth stage of cotton subject to water deficit stress . Fiaz Ahmad*, Shabab Ud Din, Asia Perveen and Mohammad Naveed Afzal
Critical growth stage of cotton crop was investigated by artificially imposing water stress under field conditions. The crop was given water deficit stress for a period of 30 days at squaring (SS) and first boll split (BS) phases by maintaining the leaf water potential (yw) at –2.2+0.2 MPa whereas in control plots yw was maintained at -1.6+ 0.2 MPa by irrigation scheduling. The average irrigati...
متن کاملEffects of ridge and conventional tillage systems on soil properties and cotton growth
Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) seeds are susceptible to low temperature and excess moisture in soil during seed emergence in years with high rainfall and low temperature in spring. Therefore, a two-year field experiment was carried out to evaluate effects of ridge tillage formed in autumn (RT-I), ridge tillage formed about a month before planting (RT-II) and flat conventional tillage (CT) culti...
