Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] genetic diversity is limited because domesticated soybean has undergone multiple genetic bottlenecks. Its progenitor, the wild soybean [Glycine soja Siebold & Zucc], has not undergone the same intense selection and is much more genetically diverse than domesticated soybean. However, the agronomic importance of diversity in wild soybean is unclear, and its weedy ...

an experiment was conducted in the experimental field of seed and plant improvement institute in karaj for three consecutive cropping seasons, 2001-2003, to study the effects of eight different fertilizer treatments including some microelements on grain yield and protein content of a bread wheat cultivar pishtaz. the experiment was in a rcbd with three replications.eight fertilizer treatments w...

The challenges of soil degradation and climate change have led to the emergence Conservation Agriculture (CA) as a sustainable alternative tillage-based agriculture systems. Despite recognition positive impacts on health, CA adoption in Africa has remained low. Previous health studies mainly focused ‘scientific’ measurements, without consideration local knowledge, which influences how farmers i...

introduction: citrus are one of the important orchard fruit production that after banana is second in production at the world level and every year, chemical fertilizers having most important role in increasing crops productions, but in long application of fertilizers cause soil destructions and polluting underground water. also soils of dry regions are very poor in organic matter level. nowaday...

Field assessment of integrated management BT cotton pests was carried out in two consecutive seasons; 2016/2017 and 2017/2018 the experimental research farm Kassala University, Sudan. Four insecticides (imidacloprid, abamectin, profenofos, lufenuron) from different chemical groups with a mode action three levels (43.81 kgha-1, 87.62 131.43 kgha-1) soil-applied nitrogen were tested IPM package. ...

katoul is a new soybeam cultivar originated from a genotype named d.p.x.3589 imported from the united states of american in 1990. this genotype was examined together with other soybean genotypes and check cultivars in different preliminary and advanced yield traits in gorgan and other research stations during 1999-2002. the mean seed yield of d.p.x.3589 in all these experiments was 3333 kgha-1 ...

estimation of optimum fertilizer rates is needed because of growing economic and environmental concerns. optimum fertilizer rates can be determined by fitting statistical models to yield data collected from n fertilizer experiments. the main goal of this research was to compare and evaluate quadratic, square root, mitscherlich, rectangular hyperbola, linear plus plateau and quadratic plus plate...
