seven rice varieties (hassani, deilmani, sepidrod, shahpasand, saleh, neda, and irfaon215) along with their complete diallel progenies were grown in a randomized complete block design of three replications in the growing seasons of 2006 and 2007 and were evaluated for the quantitative traits of: number of days to flowering, flag leaf length, width and area, plant height, panicle length, extrusi...

in order to study effects of nitrogen fertilization and cultivars on some of traits of different barley an experiment was conducted at isfahan in 2012. the experimental was split plot in a randomized complete block design with three replications. in this experiment, different levels of nitrogen in the main plots included four levels (0, 50, 100 and 150 n kg/ha (urea)) and barley cultivars inclu...

Allelopathy can be regarded as a component of biological control in which plants are used to reduce the vigour and development of other plants. Allelopathy refers to the direct or indirect chemical effects of one plant on the germination, growth, or development of neighbouring plants. The allelopathic effects of leaf extracts of Thymus vulgaris, Lavadula sp, Rosmarinus officinalis and Eucalyptu...

Camera-based 3D reconstruction of physical objects is one of the most popular computer vision trends in recent years. Many systems have been built to model different real-world subjects, but there is lack of a completely robust system for plants. This paper presents a full 3D reconstruction system that incorporates both hardware structures (including the proposed structured light system to enha...

in order to study the effects of biofertilizers and different water volume per irrigation on vegetative characteristics and seed yield of sesame (sesamum indicum l.), an experiment was conducted at the research greenhouse of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, during 2009. this experiment was conducted as factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replica...

Allometric models of internodes are an important component of Functional-Structural Plant Models (FSPMs), which represent the shape of internodes in tree architecture and help our understanding of resource allocation in organisms. Constant allometry is always assumed in these models. In this paper, multilevel nonlinear mixed-effect models were used to characterize the variability of internode a...
