Genetic diversity of 40 traditional Bangladeshi rice genotypes was studied under rainfed condition through Mahalanobis D statistic for grain yield and yield contributing characters. The genotypes were grouped into six clusters. The inter-cluster distances were higher than intra-cluster distances indicating wider genetic diversity among the genotypes of different clusters. The intra-cluster dist...

Abstract Cyanobacteria like Arthrospira platensis and Nostoc muscorum are known to be beneficial for plant development. They can improve growth, yield, proximate content (protein carbohydrate), stimulate tolerance abiotic stresses herbicides. In the present study, impacts of brominal herbicide (Bh) alone or in combination with natural cyanobacterial synthetic tryptophan treatments were investig...

to determine the correlation between important traits with yield in barley through path analysis for selecting high yielding lines, three new lines of barley resistant to cold (c-81-13, c-81-11, c-81 -15), compared with valfajr (as control) were studied. this experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications, during 2008 to 2010 in boyer ahmad city.a number ...

Twenty-eight lines including 18 F1 plants, 9 parents, and one commercial were studied for estimation of genetic variability, heritability, advance at Agricultural Research Station, Kunaram. Analysis variance revealed highly significant differences among the genotypes all traits indicating presence a considerable amount variability yield its components, quality gall midge incidence. PCV values n...

An experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications and 14 fertilizer treatments in year 2014. The treatments were including the control, application of chemical fertilizers according the soil analysis, application of 15, 30 and 45 tons of municipal  waste compost per ha as simple and with 25, 50 and 75% of chemical fertilizers. The results revealed that the ...

The reproductive stage of rice is vulnerable to heat stress, which reduces spikelet fertility and yield. Auxin significantly influences development, hence the research aimed enhance grain attributes in plants by exploring application efficiency Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) 1-naphthaleneacetic (NAA) under stress. This study investigated effects IAA (10 μmol L−1) NAA (100 on rate six genotypes duri...

this experiment was conducted in safi abad agricultural research center of dezful in order to study the effect of seed deterioration and plant density on germination, seedling establishment, yield and yield components of hull-less barley with in 2011- 2012. treatments included three levels of seed deterioration: (control, 72 and 96 hours) and five plant densities (100, 150, 200, 250 and 300 pla...

in order to evaluate the effects of different organic and chemical fertilizers on yield, yield components and seed oil content of sesame an experiment was conducted in a split plot layout based on randomized complete block design with four replications at research station, faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad in year 2006. four types of fertilizer, including chemical fertilize...
