abstract for evaluating nacl salinity effect on some physiological and qualitative attributes of five winter canola cultivars, an experiment was conducted in a rcd base factorial in three replicates in greenhouse of east azarbaijan agricultural research center in 2008. five salinity levels as 0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 mm nacl treated as first factor on five rape seed (fornax, licord, elite, slm04...

Increasing interest in cryopreservation of dormant buds reveals the need for better understanding of the role of dormancy in cryotolerance. Dormancy stage and low-temperature survival of vegetative apple buds (Malus domestica Borkh.), cultivars 'Sampion' and 'Spartan', collected from orchard were evaluated during three seasons contrasting in temperature and precipitation throughout the arrested...

Cantaloupe cultivar variability from various U.S. regions and growing seasons within a given year was evaluated. As expected, there was often considerable quality and volatile variation among cultivars. Eight of 11 cultivars met the standard U.S. No. 1 requirement for degrees Brix (> or =9), and in most cultivars, degrees Brix declined during fresh-cut storage at 4 degrees C. Hunter L (loss of ...

For estimation of grain yield in wheat, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) is considered as a potential screening tool. Field experiments were conducted to scrutinize the response of NDVI to yield behavior of different wheat cultivars and nitrogen fertilization at agronomic research area, University of Agriculture Faisalabad (UAF) during the two years 2008-09 and 2009-10. For recordi...

G grown in Kentucky are subject to environmental stresses that reduce crop yield and quality, and injure and kill grapevines. Damaging critical winter temperatures, late spring frosts, short growing seasons, and extreme summer temperatures all occur with regularity in regions of Kentucky. However, despite the challenging climate, certain species and cultivars of grapes are grown commercially in...

Due to the ever growing applicability of machine translation, estimating the quality of translations automatically has become a necessary task in various scenarios, for example, when deciding whether a machine translation is good enough for human post-editing. This demonstration presents the outcome of a collaborative project between the University of Sheffield and ENLASO, funded by EAMT, the E...

In this study, five cultivars (Ceres, Zorro, Falcon, Express, and Samourai) of winter rapeseed were classified by using the common vector approach (CVA). For this purpose, seven yield characters (plant height, number of branches per plant, number of pods per plant, number of pods on main stem, number of seeds per pod, pod length and thousand seed weight) of each cultivar were used. The seven an...

to determine the most suitable sowing date for rapeseed cultivars this study was carried out in busheshr agriculture research center, borazjan in 1997-1998 cropping season using a strip plot design with four replications. rapeseed cultivars were: global, regent, tower, pf7045/91, pf5045/88 and maluka which were sown on four different dates with fifteen days interval (oct.20, nov.5, no. 20 and d...
