Soil moisture and the nematode population density in aldicarb-treated soil influenced control of the sugarbeet nematode, Heterodera schachtii. Greater numbers of nematode larvae infected 14-day-old sugarbeet seedlings growing in aldicarb-treated soil at 20-30% than at 80-100% field capacity (F. C.), and plant growth was inversely related to nematode infection and the nematode population density...

to study the effect of plant density and planting pattern on iranian ox-tongue, an experiment carried out with two factors: planting pattern (square and rectangular pattern) and plant density (2, 4, 6, 8 plant m-2) in a factorial test performed based on rcbd in 3 replications during 2009-2010 in latmahalleh eshkevarat village in guilan province, iran. characteristics that measured included: dry...

Plant-insect interactions often are important for plant reproduction, but the outcome of these interactions may vary with environmental context. Pollinating seed predators have positive and negative effects on host plant reproduction, and the interaction outcome is predicted to vary with density or abundance of the partners. We studied the interaction between Silene stellata, an herbaceous pere...

Vertical growth of plants is a dynamic process that is influenced by genetic and environmental factors and has a pronounced effect on overall plant architecture and biomass composition. We have performed six controlled growth trials of an interspecific Setaria italica x Setaria viridis recombinant inbred line population to assess how the genetic architecture of plant height is influenced by dev...

abstract persian shallot (moseer) belongs to alliaceae family, is a perennial medicinal and industrial edible alliums in iran. very little information is available about different aspects of this species particularly on its agronomical production. in order to determine optimum sowing date and plant density in persian shallot, an experiment was conducted as split plot based on complete randomize...

abstract in order to study the effect of various densities of wild mustard (sinapis arvensis l.) on growth indices of canola (brassica napus l.) in climate of molathani, ahvaz, an experiment was conducted in the experimental field of ramin agricultural and natural resources university, in 2006-2007. the split-plot set of treatments was arranged within randomized complete block design with four ...

in in order to investigating changes range of oil yield and percentage attention to plant density on three varieties of black seed, an experiment was conducted in the form of factorial based on completely randomized block designs (rcbd) with 4 replications in saat-loui agricultural station of west azerbaijan province. in this research, the first factor (a) contained two levels 20 and 40 cm inte...

the population densities and spatial distribution patterns of zetzellia pourmirzai khanjani and ueckermann and its preys cenopalpus irani dosse and bryobia rubrioculus (scheuten) were studied in a sprayed orchard in kermanshah, a western province of iran, from 31 may till 7 november, 2007. the interaction (density dependence) between the plant feeding mites and their predator was determined as ...

The pathogenic effects of Pratylenchus coffeae on growth and yield of tangelo (Citrus paradisi x C. reticulata) scions grafted on rough lemon (C jambhiri), sour orange (C. aurantium) and 'Cleopatra' mandarin (C. reticulata) rootstocks were evaluated under field conditions for 4 years. Pratylenchus coffeae on inoculated trees increased to significantly damaging population densities on rough lemo...
