To evaluate the effect of plant density on yield and quantitative characteristics of two greenhouse cucumber cultivars, this experiment was planned as factorial, based on completely randomized blocks design with three replications, during two years in the greenhouse of Jiroft Agricultural Research Center, Jiroft, Iran. The experimental factors were width of planting strip (15, 30 and 45 cm), ...

In order to evaluate and compare 15 different hybrid genotypes of greenhouse tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L) in Gorgan, Golestan, north of Iran, an experiment was carried out in randomized complete block design with 3 replications at two Golestan province greenhouses (greenhouse of Gorgan Agricultural and Natural Resources Research and Education Center and a private greenhouse in Gorgan).  Inve...

In order to investigate the effects of plant density and pruning on yield characteristics and growth of two bell pepper cultivars, a 2×3×2 factorial experiment was conducted in a complete randomized block design with three replications and three factors of plant density (2.5, 3 and 3.5 plants per m2), shoot pruning at two levels (without pruning and training plants with 3 main stems) and two be...

Background: As an important plant belonging to the Nepeta genus, Nepeta racemosa has been reported to be widely used in traditional medicine. The present study was conducted to investigate the phytochemical content and antioxidant and antidiabetic potential of the decoction, infusion and hydro-alcoholic extract of this plant. Materials and Methods: The total phenolic content of the samples was ...

One of the important points for successful production in soilless culture system is the right fertilization timing during plant growing period for each substrate. In this respect, a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with five replications was conducted at Sari University of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources. Treatments were four chemical fertilization timings ...
