A field experiment was conducted at the Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University Farm, Dhaka 1207 during the period from December 2008 to April 2009 to study the role of potassium and sulphur on the growth, yield and oil content of soybean (Glycine max var.BARI Soybean-5). The experimental soil was clay loam in texture having pH of 6.3. The experiment included four levels of potassium viz. 0, 20, ...

in order to evaluate the effects of seed priming and different levels of nitrogen on yield and yield components of two corn (zea mays) hybrids, an experiment was carried out as split plot factorial based on a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with four replications in agricultural research station of shahrood university of technology. the treatments were urea levels (150, 250, 350 kg/ha) ...

objective: in order to study the effect of solopotasse fertilizer on yield and essential oil of cumin medicinal plant. methods: a experiment in randomized complete block design with three replications conducted in kermam city, iran, in 2013. solopotasse fertilizer in four levels (0, 50, 100 and 150 kg/h) investigated. plant height, number of umbrella per plant, number of seed per umbrella, 1000...

A field experiment was conducted in the Agricultural Research Station, at El-Ghoraieb, Assiut to study dry seed yield performance of two locally adapted cultivars (‘Azmerly’ and ‘Cream 7’) and two line introductions (IT81D-1032 and IT82D-812) of common cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp) grown at three different within-row spaces (20, 30 and 40 cm) and two planting dates in the summer (April 1...

A complete diallel cross using eight flax genotypes including four Iranian breeding lines and four Canadian genotypes was carried out to estimate genetic parameters for days to flowering, days to maturity, plant height, primary branches per plant, number of capsules per plant, number of seeds per capsule, seed yield per plant, 1000-seed weight, seed yield and harvest index. Analysis of variance...

Cone and seed characteristics of Anatolian black pine were investigated in a clonal seed orchard for two years, 2002 and 2006. The orchard, originated from Kastamonu-Karadere seed stand was established in 1993 by using 1 year-old grafts in an area of 13 ha, at Hanönü-Günlüburun, northern Turkey and includes 30 clones. The results showed that, significant variation exists among clones for 14 of ...

In order to identify the effects of different levels of nitrogen fertilizer on seed yield and seed growth indices of some bread and durum wheat genotypes, a field experiment was conducted in 2013-2014 in Khuzestan Agricultural and Natural Resource Research Center. The experiment was designed as a split plot with three replications. Nitrogen application rates (50, 100 and 150 kg N.ha-1) were ass...

introduction safflower is native to iran, and is cultivated for high adaptability, low water requirement, resistance to drought and useful unsaturated fatty acid (ashri et al., 1977). identification of effective agronomic traits and relationship between them are important aims under water stress conditions. among these characters, grain yield is the most important trait that is genetically poly...
