water deficit stress is the most important environmental constraint for growth, yield and productivity of crops, including the oil seed crops. this study was aimed at studying the influence of differing irrigation régimes on growth, chlorophyll , proline and some antioxidants content along with grain yield, yield components and oil content of sesame genotypes using a 4-replicate split plot rand...

crop yield estimation is one of the most important parameters for information and resources management in precision agriculture. this information is employed for optimizing the field inputs for successive cultivations. in the present study, the feasibility of sugar beet yield estimation by means of machine vision was studied. for the field experiments stripped images were taken during the growt...

to determine the threshold of photoperiodism and culmulative thermal time related to bulbing and growth analysis of safid behbehan, ghermez iranshahr and primavera onion cultivars an experiment was conducted at behbahan agricultural research station for a year (2006-2007) based on a randomized complete block design of four replications. seeds were sown in nursery in late october and seedlings t...

wheat (triticum aestivum) growth and yield are depressed by physical and chemical interference of weeds. recently, wild barley (hordeum spontaneum) population has increased in wheat fields of many provinces of iran. since, little is known about the allelopathic effects of wild barley residues in soil, greenhouse studies were conducted to examine the effects of soil amended residues of wild barl...

abstract development and evaluation of mitigation strategies are very crucial to manage climate change risk. research objectives of this study were (1) to quantify the response of maize grain yield to potential impacts of climate change and (2) to investigate the effectiveness of changing sowing date of maize as a mitigation option for khorasan province which is located in northeast of iran. tw...
