Pistachio yield are often negatively affected by some physiological problems such as abscission of inflorescence buds and fruits, deformed or blank nuts, and non-split shells. In the present study the effect of exogenous application of arginine (Arg) (a substrate for nitric oxide (NO) synthase) and sodium nitroproside (SNP), as a NO-donor was investigated on yield production, fruit and inflores...

salinity of water and soil in arid and semi arid regions restricts the growth and yield of crops such as sesame. in order to evaluate yield and yield components of 43 lines and ecotypes of sesame (sesamum indicum l.) under saline condition (ec of irrigation water, 5.2 ds m-1) an experiment was carried out in randomize complete block design with three replications at salinity research station of...

Grass species differ in many aspects of inflorescence architecture, but in most cases the genetic basis of the morphological difference is unknown. To investigate the genes underlying the morphology in one such instance, we undertook a developmental and QTL analysis of inflorescence differences between the cereal grain foxtail millet and its presumed progenitor green millet. Inflorescence diffe...

volatile components of three parts of pimpinella tragium vill. (umbelliferae family) from iran were investigated qualitatively and quantitatively for the first time. essential oils were isolated by hydro-distillation from stems plus leaves, inflorescence and seeds of p. tragium individually. the plant materials were collected from polour (northeast of tehran province). the yields of the stems p...

in order to study the correlation between morphophenological and quantitative traits with yield and to determine the most important traits for yield, 600 ecotypes of mung bean were evaluated in normal and limited irrigation conditions through augmented design. computation of correlation coefficients showed that in two conditions, number of pods per plant, harvest index and biological yield had ...

Chemical mutagenesis is an efficient tool used in mutation-breeding programs to improve the vital characters of the floricultural crops. This study aimed to estimate the effects of different concentrations of two chemical mutagens; sodium azide (SA) and diethyl sulfate (DES). The vegetative growth and flowering characteristics in two generations (M1 and M2) of calendula plants were investigated...

In plants, many major regulatory genes that control plant growth and development have been identified and characterized. Despite a detailed knowledge of the function of these genes little is known about how they contribute to the natural variation for complex traits. To determine whether major regulatory genes of maize contribute to standing variation in Balsas teosinte we conducted association...

The present Research was conducted To evaluate the response of lilium by GA3, IAA and Ethrel to analyse growth yield under polyhouse in Prayagraj agro climatic condition. experiment layout Randomized block design (RBD) with 13 treatments each treatment replicated thrice. carried out during November, 2021 February, 2022 Field, Department Horticulture, SHUATS, Prayagraj. consist different concent...
