C. cyminum (cumin) and M. communis (myrtle) comprise many biologically active molecules. In this study, cumin seed myrtle leaves were mixed then hydrodistilled analyzed by GC-MS. The main components of the essential oil cuminal (50.71%), 1,8 cineole (8.30%), O-cymene (7.88%), β-pinene (7.62%), α-pinene (7.16%), γ-terpinene (6.09%) α-terpinolene (2.19%). antifungal activity against albicans, par...

Peanut haulms compost as a carrier of three Trichoderma species (T. harzianum, T. hamatum and T. koningii) exhibited different morphological and chemical characteristics and its ability to control Fusarium wilt of cumin plants caused by Fusarium oxysporum compared with peat/vermiculite. The peanut haulms carrier was able to increase the population size, numbers, viability, survival, microbial b...

to study the effect of water deficit and plant density on yield and yield components of cumin (cuminum cyminum), an experiment was conducted during the 2002 - 2003 growing season at research farm of zabol university. in this study, the effects of plant density (25, 50, 100, 150, and 200 plants per m²) and water stress (before flowering, flowering, seed filling and seed hardening vs adequate irr...
