a field study was conducted to evaluate the effect of haloxyfop-r-methyl ester doses in different grass weeds in various growing stages in safflower during 2011-2012 growing season in research farm of college of agriculture, shiraz university. the study was carried our as split split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replicates. the main factor, sub factor and sub sub fa...

Glyphosate-resistant corn and soybean are grown in rotations in the Midwest, including Nebraska. Volunteer corn is a problematic weed in soybean fields because it causes harvest problems, reduces yield and seed quality, and potentially harbors insects, pests, and diseases. Several pre-packaged herbicides have been registered in soybean in recent years, but response of volunteer corn to these he...

Changes in protein content, peroxidase activity, and isozyme profiles in response to soybean aphid feeding were documented at V1 (fully developed leaves at unifoliate node, first trifoliate leaf unrolled) and V3 (fully developed leaf at second trifoliate node, third trifoliate leaf unrolled) stages of soybean aphid-tolerant (KS4202) and -susceptible (SD76R) soybeans. Protein content was similar...

In Catharanthus roseus (L.) G. Don each tissue is known to produce a distinct spectrum of terpenoid indole alkaloids. Since the invaluable antineoplastic bisindole alkaloids are restricted to the aerial parts of the plant and do not occur in its underground tissues, identification of the structural and regulatory factors operating distinctly in the shoot/leaf of the plant will be a necessity fo...

in order to study the effects of foliar application of naa and plant thinning on growth, yield and fruit quality of melon genotype khatooni, the experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications at research field of faculty of agriculture, university of zanjan. treatments consisted of foliar application of naa at three levels (25, 50 and 100 mg.l-1 at 4-6 tr...

salvia genus belongs to lamiaceae family that was used in ancient and its application in culinary, flavor cosmetics, food and drinking industries is important. in the present study to assess compatibility of salvia sclarea to field condition and determine its potential for medicinal and ornamental applications, wild seed were cultured in pots. after initial growth, seedlings at 6-8 leaf stage t...

greenhouse and laboratory studies were conducted to examine the allelopathic effects of water extracts of pigweed (amaranthus retroflexu l.) leaf, stem, root and flower at different growth stages on canola seed germination and seedling growth. water extracts of leaf, stem, root and flower as individually, binary, ternary and quadri mixtures at 0, 50 and 100% concentrations were made and their e...

A field experiment was performed to study the effects of waterlogging on the leaf mesophyll cell ultrastructure, chlorophyll content, gas exchange parameters, chlorophyll fluorescence, and malondialdehyde (MDA) content of summer maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids Denghai605 (DH605) and Zhengdan958 (ZD958). The waterlogging treatments were implemented for different durations (3 and 6 days) at the third...
