greenhouse pots was higher (r 5 0.60) under water stress than under non-stress conditions (r 5 0.49) (McIntosh A positive association between root morphology and herbage yield and Miller, 1981). Peterson (1982) reported that lateral in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) has been reported previously. To root number and total forage yield were moderately further investigate this association, we created...

to evaluate the effect of seeding rate on important agronomic traits in three winter rapeseed (brassica napus l.) cultivars, two field experiments were carried out as split plot arrangement in a complete block design with three replications during 2006-2008 growing seasons. three rapeseed cultivars (okapi, modena and licord) and three seeding rates (6, 8 and 10 kg/ha)) were randomized in main p...

general combining ability of sugar beet parents were determined for different quantity and quality characteristics.forty six sugar beet hybrids obtained from crosses of 23 diploid pollinators with two male sterile parents as tester together with three checks were evaluated for 10 important agronomic and technological characters at kamalshar research station in karaj in 2004.experiment was carri...

Cultivating resistant varieties of potato is the most effective and environmentally safe method of protecting against pests and diseases that affect potato crops. Therefore, potato breeding is focused on developing more resistant varieties so that the use of plant health products can be reduced during the cultivation cycle. Resistance to late blight, viruses and nematodes is the most important ...

plant population density (ppd) and nitrogen (n) have large effects on chickpea growth and yield. to study these effects on chickpea (var. kourosh) a factorial experiment (4×3) in randomized complete block design with four replications was carried out at research farm of college of agriculture & natural science, karaj (iran) in 2006. four ppd treatments were 16, 32, 48 and 64 plant m-2 and n amo...
