in order to study of hydropriming, planting depth and nitrogen split application effect on yield and yield components of double cross hybrid of corn, an experiment was carried out as factorial based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with four replications. nitrogen split application included (400 kg/ha at sowing date, 100 kg/ha at sowing date and 300 kg/ha 25 to 50 days after sowing da...

Summary As plant breeding is a very complex and sophisticated process, it of paramount importance to understand the nature magnitude interdependence between specific features. Using PCA correlation analysis, this study examined variability in features two types inbred sunflower lines determined its connection with their seed yields. The experiment was conducted as randomized complete block desi...

Introduction The grass pea (Lathyrus sativus L.) cultivated in Chile has a large, mostly clear white, grain. It is valued by European communities as the basis for the preparation of traditional dishes. Small Chilean farmers are exporting grass pea to these markets, which pay higher prices for larger seed. However, the size of the grain currently being produced is quite heterogeneous, and the ex...

Normal values of the antero-posterior diameter of the head of the pancreas are of utmost value in radiological practice. With more than 60% of diseases and tumours of the pancreas occurring in its head, knowledge of its normal size is essential to the clinician. Computed tomography (CT) is the most effective technique for the diagnosis and staging of pancreatic carcinoma and magnetic resonance ...

this study carried out in a factorial layout on completely randomaized block design with three replications, to evaluate the above- and below- ground competition between sesame (sesamum indicum) and pigweed (amaranthus retroflexus), and their impacts on sesame yield and yield component. the experimental treatments were all combination of crop-weed competition (shoot competition, root competitio...

in order to investigate the water deficit impact on physical characteristics of seed in four sunflower hybrids (azargol, allstar, hysun 33 and hysun25), under three irrigation regimes (irrigation after 50, 100 and 150 mm cumulative evaporation from class a evaporation pan, respectively) and experiment was conducted. sampling was done at the end of growing period (season) when the moisture conte...

the autotetraploidy was achieved in basil using tip meristem treatment of seedlings with various concentrations of colchicine solution (0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5 and 0.75% (w/v) ph = 6). a significant increase in the essential oil content was observed in tetraploids as they carry the potential of productivity of 69 % more oil over the diploids. a field experiment was conducted to investigate the e...
