to study the effect of seed sowing rate, different levels of nitrogen and different sowing dates on canola cultivar hyola401, a field experiment was conducted during 2005-2006 at safiabad agricultural research center. the design was a split split plot in a completely randomized block basis of 3 replications. main plots consisted of 3 levels of sowing dates (6, 26 nov and 16 dec), sub plots of 3...

the objectives of the present study were to evaluate spring wheat recombinant inbred lines (rils) of diverse origin by estimating genetic parameters viz., variability, character association, cluster analysis, and principal component analysis (pca) for spot blotch resistance and yield components at bhu agricultural research farm during 2010-2011. grain yield per plot was significantly and positi...

Scarcity of water for irrigation is an alarming issue of Pakistan and the problem is being magnified rapidly with the passage of time. Shortage of water is thus, a limiting factor in increasing per unit area wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield that is staple food of most of the people. Eventually, the gap between production and consumption is widening day by day and Pakistan is now suffering fro...

in order to study the sink-source physiological relationship, current photosynthesis, contribution and remobilization of assimilates to grain yield in wheat and triticale genotypes, a field experiment was conducted in iran, ahvaz area on 2003-4. treatments were two bread wheat (simareh and tawer), one durum wheat (showa) and two triticale (juvanillo92 and line 45) genotypes. grain weight change...

Due to increasing scarcity of fresh water, use of unconventional water source (e.g., wastewater) in irrigation has now become important. However, inclusive information on the effects of wastewater on crop production and soil health is necessary for such intervention. This study was designed to evaluate these effects by demonstrating the contribution of municipal wastewater (hereafter called was...
