Pinellia ternate (Thunb.) Breit (Araceae) is a shade-tolerant perennial medicinal plant, but its optimum light intensity is not sufficiently known. Hence, the influence of light intensity on the physiological responses, growth and secondary metabolic products in P. ternata under four light conditions (15%, 25%, 45% and 100% of full sunlight) in a greenhouse were to be investigated. The results ...

abstract the aim of this experiment was the study of freezing tolerance of bellis perennis under controlled conditions and were arranged in a completely randomized design with three replications. plants after sowing and grow in the bed, at the middle of autumn (after hardening in natural conditions), in the 7-8 leaf stage put on the thermogradiant freezer with the 12 freezing temperatures (0,-2...

this study investigated intra-specific variation in the growth parameters and dry mat-ter partitioning of sugar beet cultivars at different levels of salinity (0, 50, 150, 250 and 350 mm nacl + cacl2 in 5:1 molar ratio) using four cvs, one british (madison) and three iranian cvs (7233-p12, 7233-p21 and 7233-p29). the plants were grown in a controlled greenhouse environment for about 18 weeks. a...

in order to study the effect of strip intercropping of maize (zea mays l.) and bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) on the dry matter yield and land equivalent ratio (ler) in weedy and weed free treatments, an experiment was conducted at the agricultural station of college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran. treatments were strip width of 2, 3, 4 and 5 rows and sole cropping of each c...

Studies on effect of organic, inorganic and bio-fertilizers yield quality attributes potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) variety Kufri Jyoti, comprising 10 different treatments using randomized complete block design with three replications were conducted at Post Graduate Centre, University Horticultural Sciences, Campus, Gandhi Krishi Vignana Kendra, Bangalore during Rabi 2011. Application 50% RDF + ...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Spring geophytes require a period of low temperature for proper flower development but the mechanism that underlies the relationship between cold treatment and flowering remains unknown. The present study aims to compare the developmental anatomy and carbohydrate content of the tuberous geophyte Corydalis bracteata growing under natural winter conditions from 10 to -10 degre...

Since silicon regulates plant physiological and biochemical processes, it was hypothesized that foliar application could contribute to improving the quality of new potatoes. This paper analyzes effect (sodium silicate) on nutritional value sensory Silicon applied at dose 23.25 g Si·ha−1 or 46.50 once leaf development stage (BBCH 14–16) tuber initiation 40–41) twice, stages. Potatoes were harves...

BACKGROUND Traditional Environmental Knowledge (TEK) related to truffles represents an under-investigated area of research in ethnobiology. Nevertheless, truffles, in a few southern European areas, and notably in South Piedmont, represent a crucial component of the local economy and cultural heritage. METHODS Thirty-four white truffle (Tuber magnatum Pico) gatherers, locally known as trifulau...

The aim of the experiment was to determine correlations between tuber yield and components measure direct indirect effects on potato genotypes. conducted using eleven genotypes with one standard check variety (Belete) a local at Kulumsa Agricultural Research Center, Bekoji sub-station during 2020-2021. Data were collected for yield, dry matter content (%), plant height (cm), stem number, specif...

The cultivar selection and nitrogen (N) fertilization are key management factors to improve potato yield. aim of the present study was evaluate ecophysiological determinants biomass tuber yield in genotypes response N availability under field conditions. Experiments 1 2 were carried out a volcanic soil southern Chile during 2021–2022 season. Treatments applied factorial combination (i) fifteen ...
