Experiments were conducted at three sites across southern New South Wales, Australia, over years (2008 to 2010), evaluate the agronomic and quality parameters of two wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), barley (Hordeum vulgare oat (Avena sativa L.) one triticale (× Triticosecale) variety, grown as monocultures or in combination with purple vetch (Vicia benghalensis L.). Harvests occurred when individu...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the interaction effects winter cover crops (hairy vetch, subclover and black oat) a bare soil, crop biomass management (incorporated into soil or left on surface as death mulch), nitrogen (N) fertilization level (0, 75 150 kg ha−1 N) fruit yield quality parameters processing tomato. Hairy vetch residues increased (+57%), color index (+8%) sugar/acidity ...

Aims: The alleviating aspects of liquid vermicompost (VCL) on the seed germination and juvenile seedling growth Hungarian vetch, which is an important fodder plant in Turkey world, under salt stress were evaluated.Methods Results: Two experiments laboratory greenhouse conditions established according to a randomized plot design with three replications. In experiments, levels applied as control ...

Grass and legume mixtures work well, but there are no data on the mixed planting of desho grass (Pennisetum glaucifolium) Vicia species. A study was conducted to investigate whether forage dry matter yield (DMY) quality can be improved by growing species in with grass. The experimental layout followed a randomized complete block design four replications, where treatments consisted pure stands t...

development of new cultivars with high seed yield and desirable characteristics are major goals of lentil program for moderate and semi warm climate of iran. kimiya is a new lentil (lens cultivars medik) cultivar with high-yield, yield satability and adaptability to rainfed conditions. the iranian agricultural research, education and extension organization issued registration for kimiya on 9 au...

water deficit stress is the most important environmental constraint for growth, yield and productivity of crops, including the oil seed crops. this study was aimed at studying the influence of differing irrigation régimes on growth, chlorophyll , proline and some antioxidants content along with grain yield, yield components and oil content of sesame genotypes using a 4-replicate split plot rand...

Three discrete loci required for growth on myo-inositol in Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viciae have been characterized. Two of these are catabolic loci that code for malonate semialdehyde dehydrogenase (iolA) and malonate semialdehyde dehydrogenase (iolD). IolD is part of a possible operon, iolDEB, although the functions of IolE and IolB are unknown. The third locus, int, codes for an ABC transp...

Vicilin and legumin, the storage globulins of mature dry vetch (Vicia sativa L.) seeds, are found in protein bodies which are present not only in the cotyledons, but also in the radicle, axis and shoot (together, for reasons of simplicity, here called axis). When at 24 h after the start of imbibition (hai) the radicle breaks through the seed coat a major part of the globulins in the axis has al...

In temperate climate zones, long periods without rainfall or with excessive are common during sowing and the initial vegetation of a catch crop. These can result in poor emergence and/or low yields. The study aimed to determine influence depth furrow crops on soil moisture immediate vicinity seeds sown (1), dynamics germination plant (2), biomass yield (3). Three depths (4–5 cm FS-S, 6–7 FS-M, ...
