Lycopene and citrulline contents of 9 diploids (2X) and their artificially induced autotetraploids (4X) and autotriploids (3X) were determined in mature fruit. Changes in lycopene and citrulline during fruit development was studied using fruit of variety XYXA with three different ploidy levels from 15 to 40 days after pollination (DAP). Polyploids, especially triploids, had higher levels of lyc...

in order to investigate the effect of irrigation intervals and harvesting time on yield and yield components of anise (pimpinella anisum l.) a field experiment was conducted at the agricultural research station, university of zanjan in 2010. for this purpose a spilt-plot experiment based on complete randomized block design with three replications was used. three irrigation intervals (every 7, 1...
