In this study aerial parts of Ocimum sanctum were collected on august 2014 from Shahr-e-Rey in Iran. Fresh and dry partsof plants essential oils were extracted with hydro-distillation and ...

this experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of plant density on growth and seed yield of wheat (kodasht cultivar) under saline soils and rainfed condition inanbarolum region of golestan province in 2008-09. an experiment was conducted in three fields with different salinities (6.73, 9.34 and 11.63 ds m-1) based on randomized complete blocks design. treatments were four plant densi...

The effects of two different harvest stages (full flowering and full podding) on forage yield and quality of ten forage rape (Brassica napus L. var. oleifera) and three turnip (Brassica rapa L. var. rapa) cultivars were evaluated under rainfed conditions in a Mediterranean type climate at Bursa, Turkey, during the 2002/2003 and 2003/2004 growing seasons. Plant height, branches per plant, leaf l...
