introduction the demand for food and agricultural products are increasing in a line of population increasing in the world (alexandratos, 2003). it is possible to increase the quality and quantity of agricultural products via extending the farms and producing more products (astaaraei and koocheki, 1995). environmental problems caused by synthetic fertilizers and the high levels of producing and ...

to evaluate the anti-transpiration effect on yield and yield components of corn late yield 704 under drought stress experiment split factorial randomized complete block design with three replications in spring 2012 at the research station, kermanshah. and paclobutrazol treatments include salicylic acid, which is taking on two levels. based on the values determined in the following order foliar ...

BACKGROUND: Addition of fertilizers to supplement the natural soil fertility is essential for modern crop production, and precise management of nutrient elements is essential for a sustainable agriculture production. OBJECTIVES: Current study was conducted to assessment effect of different level of micronutrient crop production and seed protein content of whea...

rust diseases continue to cause significant losses to wheat production around the world. among them, yellow rust caused by puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici is an important disease that threatens wheat production in most cool environments. host resistance, especially race- nonspecific resistance, is the most economical way to manage wheat stripe rust disease. in this study, the effectiveness ...

in order to compare morphophysiological traits between new and old cultivars of barley (hordeum vulgare l.) a greenhouse experiment was conducted in greenhouse condition in faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad in spring and summer 2011.the type of experiment was a completely randomized design with eight treatments (nosrat , youssof , fagr30 , nick) and four old cultivars inclu...

The development of alien addition lines is important for transferring useful genes from exotic species into common wheat. A hybrid of common wheat cv. 7182 (2n = 6x = 42, AABBDD) and Psathyrostachys huashanica Keng (2n = 2x = 14, NsNs) via embryo culture produced the novel intergeneric disomic addition line 59-11. The seed morphology of 59-11 resembled the parent 7182 and it exhibited extreme a...

twenty five durum wheat lines were evaluated under drought stress and non-stress conditions employing randomized complete block design of 4 replications. significant differences were observed among the lines for most traits in either stress or non-stress conditions. correlation analysis under non-stress conditions indicated that grains per spike and number of spikes per m2 and while under stres...

Castor is one of neglected African oil crops with little research attention in Nigeria. In the present research, eighty-six castor genotypes were evaluated at three locations in Niger State, Nigeria. The aim was to estimate the extent of genetic variability and also to examine the associations among the seed yield and its components. The treatments were laid out in an Alpha Lattice Design with ...
