Application of novel technologies such as microwave and pulsed electric fields (PEF) might increase the speed and efficiency of oil extraction. In the present research, PEF (3.25 kV/cm electric field intensity and 30 pulse number) and microwave (540 W for 180 s) pretreatments were used to study the process of oil extraction from black cumin (Nigella sativa) seeds. After applying the selected pr...

study of agronomic characteristics and advantage indices in intercropping of additive series of chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) and black cumin (nigella sativa l.) abstract in order to evaluate quantitive and qualitive yield of chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) and black cumin (nigella sativa l.) in intercropping of additive series, a field experiment was arranged in a randomized complete block desig...

An experiment was conducted at the research farm of Crop Physiology and Ecology Department, Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University, Dinajpur, Bangladesh, during November 2013 to April 2014 to determine the growth and yield performance of four varieties of black cumin (Exotic variety, BARI kalozira-1, Faridpur local and Natore local) as influenced by three levels of fertilizers ...

in order to evaluate the effect of different intercropping arrangements of cumin and chickpea on seed yield and quality criteria of cumin an experiment was conducted in agricultural research station of ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2010 growing season. an experiment was conducted as split plot on the basis of complete randomized block design with three replicatons. the main plot included ar...

In this study, Simple Sequence Repeat markers (SSR) were used to investigate the genetic variation between 49 cumin ecotypes collected from 9 different provinces of Iran. SSR primers Elap1479, Elap040 and Elap1493 showed the highest (89%), while Elap1340 and Elap017 showed the lowest (56%) number of polymorphic bands. Polymorphism information content (PIC) values varied between 0.18 - 0.37. The...
