in order to study the influence of municipal solid waste compost and nitrogen fertilizer on grain and forage yield of sweet corn an experiment was conducted at marvdasht during 2009. the experiment was arranged in split plots based on randomized complete block design with two factors and three replications. main plot included 5 levels of nitrogen fertilizer (100, 150, 200, 250, 300 kg n ha-1) a...

Maize is one of the most important crops, both worldwide and in Romania, preserving diversity biological material used breeding this plant particular importance. The Agricultural Research Development Station (ARDS) Turda, inbred lines collection includes its own genotypes some obtained as a result germplasm exchanges with other institutions country or abroad. In present study, 575 created at Tu...

Corn (Zea mays L.) is an important food ingredient as one of the second carbohydrate producers after rice in Indonesia. The use corn plant not only limited to seeds, but other parts can also be used. To increase national maize production, intensification methods applied. One activities realized by selecting planting materials obtained from crossing. superior hybrid seeds intensive development a...

introduction barely (hordeum vulgare) is the fourth most important cereal after wheat, corn and rice. regarding the role of breeding to increase barley grain yield a large number of studies have been done in different countries. however, a few studies have been performed across golestan province, in iran. therefore, this study was conducted to know what barley traits have changed with grain yie...

Path analysis depicted the strength of association all independent variables under study on grain yield. Thus, aimed at examining changes in associations and path yield related traits to post-monsoon monsoon season. A total 14 maizegenotypes were evaluated two growing seasons Maize other Cereal Crops Research Section, Department Agricultural (DAR), Yezin, Nay Pyi Taw, Myanmar. Genotypic correla...

Studies of the morphology of the corn plant have led, according to Weatherwax (17) j^ to clearer and simpler explanations of the results of certain experiments with corn. It should be expected that further studies of the developmental morphology might prove to be equally helpful. Variations from the normal sequence of development which lead to abnormalities of the tassel and ear and variations ...

The use of renewable resources and inputs is one of the fundamental principles of sustainable agriculture that enables maximum crop productivity and minimal environmental risk. Nutrient management may be achieved by the involvement of organic sources, bio-fertilizers, and micro-nutrients. Indiscriminate use of chemical fertilizers to achieve high yield and to compensate for lack of nutrients an...

An experiment was conducted at Institute of Agriculture and Animal Science (IAAS), Rampur, Nepal during July 2011 to September 2011 with an objectine to determine phenotypic variability of Nepalese finger millet landraces using descriptive statistics, cluster analysis and principal component analysis. FValue of REML procedure of mixed model analysis revealed that highly significant variation wa...
