Mixed intercropping of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) with faba bean (Vicia faba L.) was compared with sole cropping for three growing seasons 2001–2003) at Holetta Agricultural Research Centre, in the central highlands of Ethiopia. The treatments were sole barley (125 kg ha−1), sole aba bean (200 kg ha−1) and an additive series of 12.5, 25, 37.5, 50 and 62.5% of the sole seed rate of faba bean mi...

Until recently, storage protein research has been largely restricted to the seed-specific reserve proteins, which provide nutrients to seedlings during their early growth. Their abundance, and the potential for improving seed nutritional quality, were early incentives to investigate seed storage proteins, and they continue to be intensively studied as a plant model for tissue-specific and devel...

drought, specially in reproductive stage is one of the major constraints, limiting the productivity of crops, including chickpea (cicer arietinum l.). to study the effects of drought during pod set and seed filling stages (terminal drought) on phenology, growth and seed yield of 5 kabuli chickpea genotypes of: arman, jam, hasham, flip93-93 (azad) and ilc482, an experiment was conducted during t...

Рurpose and objectives. To study the influence of growth regulators on seed productivity seeding quality development maternal forms, pollen-forming ability parental forms corn hybrids, as well to develop ways using in primary stages production. Material methods. The experiments were conducted crop rotation fields Plant Production Institute named after V.Ya. Yuriev NAAS 2018-2019. Seeds maize li...

ABSTRACT-This experiment was carried out as factorial based on a randomized complete block design with three replications at the research station of the Islamic Azad University-Arak Branch, Iran, in 2011 and 2012. Experimental factors consisted of three levels of salicylic acid (SA); seed priming with distilled water (hydro priming), seed priming with 0.5 mM SA, and 0.5 mM SA  seed priming 1 mM...
