seed and oil yields, its components and two physiological indices including leaf canopy temperature (tc) and relative water content (rwc) were evaluated in two spring oilseed rape cultivars (rgs 300 and hyola 401) under non-stressed and water deficit imposed during stem elongation, flowering and seed filing stages. the experiments were conducted as a factorial consisted of 2 factors including i...

Disadvantages such as indeterminate inflorescence and high seed shattering during ripening are significant restrictions to introduce evening primrose as a commercial medicinal plant. Following to the last works, a pot experiment was conducted to clarify the influence of defoliation before harvest on the seed yield, oil and GLA (gamma-linolenic acid) percentage of evening primrose growing under ...

glasswort(salicornia europaea l.) as an important halophyte plant is capable to accumulate nacl in aboveground part (fully edible) in considerable quantity. to evaluate the effect of irrigation levels and nitrogen fertilizer on the yield of seed and oil, and also harvest index of glasswort, a split plot experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications a...

in order to evaluate the effects of different planting dates and biological fertilizers on yield, yield components and essential oil content in cumin (cuminum cyminum) and fenugreek (trigonella foenum-graecum) intercropping, an experiment was conducted in a split-plot factorial arrangement in a randomized complete block design with three replications in research farm of ferdowsi university of m...

background and objectives: production and use of fertilizers in common agriculture have been many environmental problems. while the application of organic fertilizers instead of chemical fertilizers have a important role in soil fertility, increase quality of production and safety of agricultural ecosystems. pumkin, is an important annual herbaceous plant belongs to the cucurbitaceae family due...

safflower oil seed has high adaptability to different kinds of abiotic stresses such as drought and salinity. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of drought stress at different phenological stages on relative water content (rwc), leaf canopy temperature, seed yield and its components in spring types of safflower. the study was carried out in east azarbaijan research center for agr...
