augment of germination rate is important in seedling establishment and crop yield. a set of study in laboratory & field conditions at agronomy department of university of tehran was conducted during 2004-2005. in lab. experiment the effects of seed priming was evaluated on germination indices (germination percentage and rate) of chickpea genotypes in a factorial experiment of 4×3×2 arranged in ...

Lolium rigidum Gaud. is one of the most common weed species in winter cereals in Northeastern Spain. Herbicide resistance has been growing since the mid 90’s and exclusive herbicide use is not enough in many cases, so that it is necessary to combine as many control tools as possible. Six field trials have been conducted during the cropping seasons 200102, 2002-03 and 2003-04 on winter cereal in...

abstract field experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of sowing date, crop density, and weed interference on yield and yield components of chickpea in lorestan province during 2005-06. the experimental was a randomized complete block design by factorial arrangement with 4 replications. the experiment had 3 factors: sowing date at 2 levels (autumn, and winter), crop density at 3 levels...

to evaluate the effects of sowing date, cultivars and herbicides on weed species control and soybean yield, a strip split plot layout in as a randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted in dasht-e-naz company sari-iran, in 2008. treatments included two planting dates (planting june 7th and 27th), soybean cultivars (bp, jk, 032, 033 and sahar) and herbicide application...

Spatial monitoring of the sowing date plays an important role in crop yield estimation at the regional scale. The feasibility of using polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data for early season monitoring of the sowing dates of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) fields is explored in this paper. Polarimetric SAR responses of six parameters, relying on polarization decomposition methods, we...

abstract in order to study the effect of sowing date and seeding rate on essential oil content and composition of chamomile (matricaria recutita l.) cv. presov, prepared from slovakia, an experiment was conducted. the experimental design was split-plot in the basic of randomized complete blocked design (rcbd) with three replications. main plots consisted of three sowing dates (6 nov, 5 mar, and...

Sowing date and density are two important factors in produce of coriander. A field experiment was conducted with treatments: sowing time (5 May, 20 May, 4 June and 19 June 2009) and plant density (10, 30, 50 and 70 plants m). The experimental plots were laid out in a factorial according to a RCBD with three replications. Results showed that the effect of sowing dates and densities were signific...

cumin (cuminum cyminum l.) is one of the most important cultivable medicinal plants in iran and today, it is the second most popular spice in the world after black pepper. it is essential to know the relationships between yield and its components in cumin breeding programs. therefore, different multivariate statistical analysis was performed on plant characters in cumin to determine the relatio...
