Behavioural responses of S. oryzae to odours/volatiles from sorghum, red gram, chick pea, black gram, green gram, fried gram and lentil were compared in Y-tube olfactometer bioassay. Results indicated that sorghum populations were more attracted towards sorghum followed by split pulses. Whereas pulses populations were more attracted towards red gram followed by green gram, chick pea, black gram...

Eight genotypes of lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) were tested for bioaccumulation and transport of arsenic (As) in a pot experiment under controlled growth condition. Along with control (no As was added), plants were grown for 60 d in pot soil spiked with 100 mg As kg, added as Sodium arsenate. Significant (P < 0.05) variations among eight genotypes were observed in bioaccumulation and transpor...

in this study, total factor productivity growth of iran’s pulses (including irrigated pea, dry pea, irrigated lentil, dry lentil, irrigated soybean, dry soybean and irrigated bean) during of farming years 1989-1990 though 2007-2008 had been analyzed, using nonparametric malmquist approach. so, amounts of inputs usages include seeds, fertilizers, dung, poison, herbicide, labor, water and acreage...

introduction the lentil or masoor (lens culinaris l.) is a brushy annual plant of the legume family, grown for its lens-shaped seeds. lentil has been one of the first crops domesticated in the near east. with 26% protein, lentil is the vegetable with the highest level of protein other than soybeans, and it is an important part of people’s diet in many parts of the world. it is reported that the...

Genomics-assisted breeding has become a powerful tool to develop high-yielding climate-resilient varieties for adaptation adverse environmental conditions such as heat and drought stresses. Previously, efforts have been made genomic resources in lentil, leading the development of many trait-specific mapping populations, cores mini-cores, single nucleotide polymorphism simple sequence repeat mar...

introduction lentil (lens culinaris medik.) is an important legume in the mediterranean area. high protein content in lentil seed (about 22-28%) makes it as a good food source for developing countries and low-income people. in the west of iran such as kermanhah province, it is the most important pulse in rainfed systems cultivated traditionally in rotation with wheat and barley. lentil is grown...

introduction lentil is an important pulse crop in iran. lentil is a seed propagating, self-pollinating crop originating from near east. it is containing 27.5% -31.75% protein and it has high level of iron, calcium, phosphor, thiamin, niacin, and some unusual amino acid as hydroxyarnitin, hydroxyarginin and homo arginin. faostat reported that the world production of lentils was 4,975,621 metric ...

Lentil (Lens culinaris L.) is typically cultivated in marginal soil with low fertility status. It an important rabi season pulse crop North India. The responds well to exogenous application of Sulphur and Iron. Considering the above, a field experiment was conducted during Rabi 2022 at Crop Research Farm, Department Agronomy, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture...
