in order to study yield and yield components in intercropping bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) and sweet basil (ocimum basilicum l.) and evaluating effect of intercropping on weed control, a field experiment was conducted at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad during growing season of 2008. treatments: included 1- sole crop of bean 2- sole crop of sweet basil 3- strip ...

Leaf-level morphological and physiological responses of mature, winter-deciduous, shade-tolerant Acer saccharum Marsh. trees to gap formation caused by selection harvest were studied experimentally over a 2-year period. We found no evidence for either physiological stress or positive acclimation following gap creation during the 1-2-week post-harvest period. Rather, lower-canopy leaves showed g...

Five greenhouse-grown cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp] cultivars were tested in a generalized random complete-block design to determine the effect of early leaf harvest on dry weight and protein concentration of plant parts at maturity. The most recent, fully expanded leaves on each branch from one group of plants were harvested at 5 and 7 weeks after planting. On the other groups of plants...

in order to study the effect of different levels of nitrogen and sulfur fertilizers on yield, yield components, content of some elements, qualitative and quantitative traits of spring safflower (serin cv.) an experiment was conducted at agriculture and natural resource research station of ardabil in 2008. this experiment was carried out in factorial experiment in completely randomized block des...

The quick and accurate acquisition of crop growth parameters on a large scale is important for agricultural management and food security. The combination of photographic and wireless sensor network (WSN) techniques can be used to collect agricultural information, such as leaf area index (LAI), over long distances and in real time. Such acquisition not only provides farmers with photographs of c...

to evaluate the effect of gamma rays on the seeds and amounts of nitrogen on growth and yield of chamomile (chamomilla recutita synonym matricaria chamomilla), a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications at the research farm of agriculture college of shahid-beheshti.-urmia in 2010. treatments were gamma rays from cobalt-60 on chamomile ...

An experiment was conducted in the experimental field of Rajshahi University Campus, Bangladesh during the rabi season of 2004-2005 to study the growth attributes of four varieties of barley (BARI Barley-1, BARI Barley-2, BHL-3, BL-1) in relation to different soil moisture regimes and NPK fertilizers. Three levels of irrigation (I0, I1, I2) and four levels of NPK fertilizers (F0, F1, F2, F3) we...
