The drought in Serbia the summer of 2017 heavily affected agricultural production, decreasing yields maize, sunflower, soybean, and sugar beet. Monitoring moisture levels crops can provide timely information about potential risk within a growing season, thus helping to create an early warning system for various stakeholders. purpose this study was quantify level stress during consequences that ...

Background: Microbial and fungal contamination of agricultural produce has been a health challenge over the years. The present study surveyed microbial and aflatoxin contamination in groundnut, maize, and cowpea collected from Port Harcourt, Nigeria. Methods: Ninety samples of maize, groundnut, and cowpea were purchased from six major markets in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. The samples were first e...

Combining ability for grain yield and other traits were evaluated in a half diallel fashion maize. Eight yellow maize inbred lines crossed excluding the reciprocals during summer season of 2018 at Gemmeiza station, resulting 28F1 along with check SC168 two locations (Gemmeiza Sids) 2019 season. A randomized complete block design (RCBD) four replications was used. Mean squares GCA SCA highly sig...

This study investigates the influence of meteorological parameters such as temperature and precipitation on gross primary production (GPP) in continental United States (CONUS) during boreal summer using satellite-based indices GPP data at various scales (i.e., pixel, county, state levels). The strong linear relationship between is presented around central States, particularly Great Plains, wher...

Intercropping systems compared to monoculture systems can more efficiently use the existing resources which ultimately will lead to increased plant performance. Therefore, to evaluate the benefits of intercropping maize and beans and assess its impact on yield and yield’s component, an experiment was conducted in factorial design with randomized complete block design in three replication, in 20...

this research aimed at investigating the effect of different levels of nitrogen and planting patterns on dry matter production and growth physiological indices in intercropping maize and sunflower. to do this a split plot experiment carried out based randomized complete block design with three replications in research field of shushtar islamic azad university. the main plot included three level...

on the basis of acreage, production and import amounts, maize is one of the strategic products in iran, regarding defects of marketing system of maize, in this analysis using yearly observations between 1368 to 1385 (18 years) and eviews software, the marketing and econometric model of maize marketing margin was studied. the results show that the most important factor in the maize marketing mar...

To study the effects of cytokinin O-glucosylation in monocots, maize (Zea mays L.) transformants harbouring the ZOG1 gene (encoding a zeatin O-glucosyltransferase from Phaseolus lunatus L.) under the control of the constitutive ubiquitin (Ubi) promoter were generated. The roots and leaves of the transformants had greatly increased levels of zeatin-O-glucoside. The vegetative characteristics of ...

Abstract To find out how maize and potato can grow and develop in an intercropping system rather than each grown alone in a sole cropping system the following factorial experiment was performend in the frame-work of a randomized complete block three replications in the experimental farm of the faculty of agriculture, Zanjan University in year 2004. Different potato to maize ratios of (1:0), i...
