this study was conducted to investigate the effect of physical and chemical processing on crude protein fractions of two varieties of canola (okapi and modena) and safflower (62 and zarfan) seed using cornel net carbohydrate and protein system and on protein subunits using sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. formaldehyde was used as chemical treatment, while toasting and ...

Abstract Safflower is currently primarily cultivated as an industrial crop for its oil, which used food and purposes, while the by-products can be animal feeding. Traditionally in Mediterranean area, it was abandoned past other oil crops, such sunflower. However, now returning to interesting due adaptability low-input cultivation practices, especially when sown autumn. The main aim of this stud...

high nitrogen and plant density cause increasing vegetative growth and reducing harvest index. the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of cycocel at high nitrogen and plant density on safflower yield and yield components. for this purpose a field experiment was carried out as a factorial-split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications with esfahan 14 ...

introduction safflower) carthamus tinctorius l.) is a tolerant plant to water deficit due to long roots and capability for high water absorption from soil deeper parts. safflower can growth successfully in regions with low soil fertility and temperature. behdani and mosavifar (2011) reported that drought stress affect on yield by reducing yield components and agronomic traits. biofertilizer dur...

Erucic acid is a valuable industrial fatty acid with many applications. The main producers of this acid are today high erucic rapeseed (Brassica napus) and mustard (Brassica juncea), which have 45%-50% of erucic acid in their seed oils. Crambe abyssinica is an alternative promising producer of this acid as it has 55%-60% of erucic acid in its oil. Through genetic modification (GM) of three gene...

in order to evaluate the effects of foliar micronutrients on quantitative and qualitative yield of safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.), a field experiment was carried out at research farm of agricultural faculty, zabol university during growing season of 2005-2006. the experiment performed based on rcbd with 3 replications and 7 treatments including: fe, zn, b, pair combination of them and cont...

this experiment was conducted at the agricultural research farm of isfahan university of technology in 2007-2008 to evaluate the effects of seed treatment and the levels of irrigation regimes on three safflower cultivars. a split plot factorial arrangement was used in a randomized complete block design with three replications. main-plot consisted of three irrigation regimes (60, 105 and 140 mm ...
