in order to investigate of the effects of water stress on seed yield and gas exchange and to evaluate the relationship between source and sink in sunflower azargol variety, a split-plot factorial field experiment was conducted in 2008. in this experiment, water stress (no irrigation from 30 days after sowing till ripening) and irrigation (irrigation at -3 bar soil water potential) were consider...

abstract the present study was aimed to investigate the planting dates effects on yield associated traits and also determining stability of the result of factor analysis and stepwise regression analysis in different planting dates of rapeseed genotypes at biekol agriculture research station during 2011-12 cropping season. result of split plot analysis exhibited significant genotypes effects for...

in order to evaluate the effect of water stress and plant density on growth and seed yield of safflower, a study was conducted during 2009 growing season at agricultural college of shiraz university. the experimental design was split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications. the treatments were deficit irrigation (100, 75, and 50% of field capacity-fc) as main plot...

in order to assess the performance of two soybean cultivars produced in two regions including karaj and moghan to drought stress at reproductive stages and also the impact of drought stress on yield and its components, oil and protein percent, an experiment was conducted as a split factorial based on complete randomized block design in three replications in agriculture faculty of tarbiat modare...

To investigate the existence of coordinated sets of seedling traits adapted to contrasting establishment conditions, we examined evolutionary convergence in seedling traits for 299 French Guianan woody plant species and the stress response in a shadehouse of species representing seed size gradients within five major cotyledon morphology types. The French Guianan woody plant community has larger...

Phosphorus (P) unavailability and lack of organic matter in the soils under semiarid climates are the two major constraints for low crop productivity. Field trial was conducted to study the effects of P levels, compost application times and seed inoculation with phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) on the yield and yield components of maize (Zea mays L., cv. Azam). The experiment was conducted...
