Stable isotope analysis of primate tissues in tropical forest contexts is an increasingly popular means of obtaining information about niche distinctions among sympatric species, including preferences in feeding height, forest canopy density, plant parts, and trophism. However, issues of equifinality mean that feeding height, canopy density, as well as the plant parts and plant species consumed...

in order to study compatibility of 30 white bean genotypes under karaj climate, an experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with four replications. evaluation and statistical analysis was performed for 18 important traits. analysis of variance results showed that there are significant differences between varieties for all traits. results of genotypes means comparison w...

Plant stature in temperate cereals is predominantly controlled by tillering and plant height as complex agronomic traits, representing important determinants of grain yield. This study was designed to reveal the genetic basis of tillering at five developmental stages and plant height at harvest in 218 worldwide spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) accessions under greenhouse conditions. The acces...

in order to understand the effect of plant density and different fertilizers on sesame (sesamum indicum l.) production, an experiment was conducted as a factorial arrangement based on completely randomized block design with three replications. the experimental treatments were fertilizers in four levels (cow manure (30 t.ha-1), municipal compost (30 t.ha-1), chemical fertilizer (250 kg ammonium ...

Production of Mrenda (Corchorus olitorius) in Kenya has been low due to various reasons, such as poor agronomic practices like incorrect fertilizer rates. Observations from the Mrenda growing areas showed that there is high unmet demand for crop in local market and even for export. This is due to yields being low, 2-4 tons/ha as compared to expected yield of 5-8 tons/ha. Therefore, the main obj...
