the present study evaluated the effects of different dosages herbicides oxyfluorfen and trifluralin on crop properties of garlic, including plant height, number of cloves per bulbs as well as economical and biological yield of garlic. in this research, a randomized complete block design, with seven treatments and three replications, along with a control sample (weeding and no weed control), was...

plant growth regulators (pgrs) are widely used for lodging control in winter wheat (triticum aestivum l.) grown at high n rates. although the introduction of semi-dwarf wheat cultivars had largely solved the problem of lodging, evidence was already accumu-lating that the timely application of a growth retardant such as chlormequat (ccc) or ethephon could increase the grain yield of wheat, by th...

background & aim: the genus satureja belonging to the family of lamiaceae and consists of over 235 different species throughout the world. fourteen species grow naturally in iran of which eleven species are endemic. different species of satureja are used in food, healthy, cosmetic and medical industry. this reseach has been carried due to selection and introduction of suitable germplasm in ...

the aim of the present study was to estimate genetic and phenotypic parameters of milk production traits in the first and second lactations of romanian simmental dairy cattle. for the estimation of variance, heritability, genetic and phenotypic correlations among milk yield, fat yield, protein yield, and percentages of fat and protein, 3400 first and second lactation records over a period of fi...

Attaining maximum sustained yield (MSY) is a central goal in U.S. fisheries management. To attain MSY, fishing mortality is maintained at FMSY and biomass at BMSY. Replacing FMSY and BMSY by “proxies” for FMSY and BMSY is commonplace. However, these proxies are not equivalent to FMSY and BMSY. The lack of equivalency is an important issue with regard to whether MSY is attained or whether biomas...

in order to determine the appropriate plant density of spotted bean in yasouj, a field experiment was conducted in 2008 as a factorial in a randomized complete block design with three replications. three spotted bean cultivars (keshavarzi, talash and oshtori) were sown at five plant densities (10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 plant.m-2). results showed that effect of plant density, cultivar and interactio...
