potato is one of the sensitive plants to drought stress and it is one of the main crops in the north regions of fars province. since the planting time is simultaneous with wheat irrigation period, due consideration should be given to reduce irrigation consumption for this crop. this research investigated the effect of potassium sulfate on the drought tolerance of potatoes. field experiment was ...

Objective: Yield components and genetic contribution have the most important in final yield and breeding programs of crop plants. For this purpose, 20 varieties of grapevines with Russia origin were evaluated in Urmia and Takestan research station (under full irrigation and drought stress). Methods: Twenty grapevine genotypes were evaluated in Urmia and Takestan research station (under full irr...

to study the yield and change the attributes associated with it, the field experiments were conducted at the gorgan university of agricultural sciences research farm, gorgan, iran in the growing seasons of 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 under well-watered conditions. the 16 cultivars were sown in a randomized complete block design with three replications. the results showed that during breeding activi...

Enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) is Ethiopia's most important root crop. A total of 387 accessions collected from nine different regions of Ethiopia were evaluated for 15 quantitative traits at Areka Agricultural Research Centre to determine the extent and pattern of distribution of morphological variation. The variations among the accessions and regions were significant (p ≤ 0.01) f...

in order to evaluate the waterlogging stress effects on yield and yield components of rapeseed, a pot experiment was conducted at gorgan university of agricultural sciences and natural resources during 2010-2011. the experiment design was completely randomized with factorial arrangement and three replications. examined factors were developmental stage (seedling, stem elongation, flowering and g...

in order to investigate the effect of high density and depth of planting on agronomic characteristic of saffron, a field experiment was conducted as a complete randomized block design with three replications in faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran during two growing seasons of 2008-2009 and 2009-2010. treatments were six levels of high densities (8, 11, 13, 16, 19 and 21...

the high yield depends on high dry matter production per unit area. azotobacter bio-fertilizer experiment to investigate the effect on the index, total dry matter accumulation and pishtaz and chamran wheat cultivars in 2005 was conducted in the faculty of agriculture, lorestan university. experiment, a split-plot randomized complete blocks design with four replicates were tested. treatments con...

There is interest in the identification of the best seeding density for new corn hybrids and on reduced use of herbicides for weed control. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of seeding density (30, 50, 70, and 90 thousand plants ha) and weed control on green ear yield and grain yield in corn cultivar AG 1051. A completely randomized block design was adopted with split-plot...
