The genetic control of propagation effects and the impact of stock-plant age and source was examined in 9 month-old Pinus radiata cuttings. The cuttings investigated were propagated from stock-plants aged between 2 and 5 years, and microcuttings propagated from 12 week old stock-plants. The design included 20 families, with seven clones per family and an average of seven ramets per clone. Five ...

The genetic diversity of commercial cultivars of strawberry Fragaria x ananassa from various parentages, as expressed by their resistance to the northem lesion nematode Pratylenchus penetrans, was evaluated in nematode-infested field plots for two growing seasons. Data taken for each plant in each season included soil nematode Pi and Pf, end-of-season nematode numbers in each entire root system...

s: Chromium is one of the unessential heavy metal that makes high toxicity in the plants. The aim of this study was assaying the changes that come from toxicity of (Cr ) on some biochemical, physiological and 6+ ionic specification of Brassica napus variety sari flower. The tests were conducted at hydro ionic conditions and at 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 μm concentration of K CrO with four repeats in...

in order to evaluate the effect of different levels of salinity and three nitrogen nutrition on biochemical reactions and changes in dry weight of shoot and root on psyllium (plantago ovata f.), a glasshouse experiment in a complete randomized design with three replications in 2009 at university of zabol was conducted. salinity treatments in this experiment were 0, 100 and 200 mm of nacl and ni...

in order to evaluate the effects of wastewater irrigation on sugar content and morphological traits of sugar beet (beta vulgaris l.), an experiment was conducted in split plot design based on randomized complete block design with three replications at research station in shahrekord university in 2013. the treatments consisted of irrigation with urban wastewater at 2-4 and 8-12 leaf stages, and ...
