sainfoin (onobrychis viciifolia scop.) is a perennial forage legume has recognized for its feed value and high stability. this experiment was conducted to investigate the relationship among morphological and agronomic traits using multivariate statistical methods including correlation, regression and factor analysis. twenty one accessions of sainfoin were evaluated in a randomized complete bloc...

this experiment was conducted with the objective of evaluating the performance sage (salvia officinalis l.) in different agroecology of ethiopia for morpho-agronomic and chemical traits at wondo genet, hawassa, qoqa and holleta for two years from 2011/2012 to 2012/2013 cropping seasons. data on plant height, branch number/plant, fresh leaf weight/plant, fresh stem weight/plant, above ground bio...

this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of fertilizers on the yield and essential oils of basil. this experiment was carried out in completely randomized block design with three replications in jiroft area. the treatments included three levels of barvar 2 (10, 20 and 25 g/ha), cow manure at three levels (5, 10 and 15 ton/ha), ammonium phosphate and superphosphate triple each at three le...

Panicle architecture determines the number of spikelets per panicle (SPP) and is highly associated with grain yield in rice (Oryza sativa L.). Understanding the genetic basis of panicle architecture is important for improving the yield of rice grain. In this study, we dissected panicle architecture traits into eight components, which were phenotyped from a germplasm collection of 529 cultivars....

African yam bean (Sphenostylis stenocarpa) is an underexploited legume with the potential of becoming an alternative food staple to alleviate the problem of food security. An assessment was carried out on the growth and yield of AYB affected by Telfairia mosaic virus (TeMV) Infection. Telfairia mosaic virus caused severe mosaic, leaf distortion and malformation on AYB. Analyses of results revea...

experiments were conducted at the horticulture research farm of horticulture department, bangabandhu sheikh mujibur rahman agricultural university (bsmrau), salna, gazipur during december, 2007 to may, 2009 to investigate the effect of bulb cutting and potting media on propagation of hippeastrum. the bulb cutting significantly influenced all the parameters except days required to first leaf eme...

Wild jujube, Ziziphus lotus, is a multipurpose xerophytic shrub of the Rhamnaceae family widely distributed in arid and semi-arid regions of Tunisia, where it occupies most soil types. The fruit is the edible part of the plant by local population. The reintroduction of this shrub requires the control of its multiplication in response to water shortage. This study aims to evaluate growth and wat...

introduction: basil (ocimum basilicum l.) is an annual herbaceous plant that belongs to lamiaceae family. this plant is native of india country and other countries in south of asia. nowadays, the use of water superabsorbent polymers is increased in agriculture and their role in reducing the drought stress and increasing the crops production has been demonstrated in many researches. superabsorbe...

in order to study of genetic variation and identification of yield components in chickpea, a trial consists of 96 accessions of chickpea received from iranian gen bank (seed and plant improvement institute) along with five checks (arman, bivanij, jam, hashem and ilc-482) was conducted based on an augmented design in 2005-06 cropping season at research farm of agricultural college, razi universi...
