topping stage of tobacco is a key time for development of agriculture measures to promote the quality of leaves. in order to investigating influence of topping timing and suckericide content on tobacco leaf, a factorial experiment on the basis of rcb design with 3 replications was conducted in 2011 at the tobacco research farm of isfahan. treatments were including topping time (t1: topping at e...

Double-strand breaks (DSBs) threaten chromosome integrity. The most accurate repair of DSBs is by homologous recombination (HR), catalyzed by recombination proteins such as Rad51. Three papers in this issue of Molecular Cell (Fasching et al., 2015; Kaur et al., 2015; Tang et al., 2015) now reveal the role of three of these proteins in budding yeast: Sgs1 (BLM homolog), Top3 (TOPIIIα homolog), a...

The extraction of biomass and nutrients out of the forest is implicit to every harvest operation. In cable yarding, whole-tree harvesting (WTH) has become more prevalent in the last few decades and processing takes place at the roadside. There is a concern that WTH impairs site productivity due to nutrient removal. One option to increase the amount of biomass remaining in the stand is to top th...

One of the most important practices in flue-cured tobacco farming is topping and sucker control at the right time. Topping cause's development and root growth, drought tolerance, reduce deployment pests, increased synthesis of nicotine. This study was conducted in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with 10 treatments in 3 replications over two years (2008-2009) at Tirtash research and educ...

milk thistle is used traditionally as a hepaprotective agent and supportive treatment of liver disorders. the most problems in milk thistle harvest are tall height, seed shedding and being spinous. in this trial, effects of 3 native populations (p1: isfahan violet flower, p 2: ahvaz white flower and p3: ahvaz violet flower) and 3 topping levels (t1:control, t2: topping in 7 leaves stage and t3:...

Manual removal of the main stem tips cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is a traditional topping approach in China. However, chemical has become an inevitable trend. Therefore, it great significance to study effect and appropriate concentration agents for advancement whole process mechanization management technology. A two-year field experiment was conducted evaluate effects different methods on yi...
