An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of different sowing time on seed yield and quality in under used medicinal plant babchi. The study was carried out for 12 months from January to December. Results showed that the seeds sown in November month recorded the maximum seed yield and quality parameters followed by October month than other months. November month recorded the maximum fi...

this study was conducted to determine the effect of variable nitrogen supply on yield parameters of two sugar beet varieties, as well as on biomass allocation to different parts of sugar beet plant at safi-abad agric. res. center during 2003-4 and 2004-5. five nitrogen rates (0, 60, 120, 180 and 240 kgha-1) and two monogerm sugar beet varieties (shirin and rasol) arranged as factorial in a rand...

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] genetic diversity is limited because domesticated soybean has undergone multiple genetic bottlenecks. Its progenitor, the wild soybean [Glycine soja Siebold & Zucc], has not undergone the same intense selection and is much more genetically diverse than domesticated soybean. However, the agronomic importance of diversity in wild soybean is unclear, and its weedy ...

durum wheat due to its quality is an important crop in feeding and economics. saji is a newly released durum wheat cultivar with a mean yield of 2824 kgha-1 which was higher than the two durum wheat (zardak) and bread wheat (sardari) check cultivars in different yield traits conducted during 2000-2008 cropping seasons in iran. its grain yield was 23% and 11% higher than those of zardak and sard...

water deficit stress is the most important environmental constraint for growth, yield and productivity of crops, including the oil seed crops. this study was aimed at studying the influence of differing irrigation régimes on growth, chlorophyll , proline and some antioxidants content along with grain yield, yield components and oil content of sesame genotypes using a 4-replicate split plot rand...

estimation of optimum fertilizer rates is needed because of growing economic and environmental concerns. optimum fertilizer rates can be determined by fitting statistical models to yield data collected from n fertilizer experiments. the main goal of this research was to compare and evaluate quadratic, square root, mitscherlich, rectangular hyperbola, linear plus plateau and quadratic plus plate...

to study the effects of zabol wastewater treated with two kinds of fertilizer (manure and chemical fertilizer) application vs use of ordinary water on grain yield and yield components in corn (kosc704) a field experiment was conducted at the university of zabol, iran during 2007 growing season. the statistical plan selected was a split plot one of three replications. the treatments were compris...

to evaluate the genetic diversity in sardari bread wheat landrace, purification and selection of lines with good agronomic traits, were carried out for ten cropping seasons (1995-2006) in maragheh and six other dryland agricultural research stations. one hundred and six individual spikes were selected among sardari landrace in the first phase of study (1995- 2000). results of morph-physiologica...

line g11867 was first introduced in iran together with 206 other white, chitti and red beans lines through ciat, and was tested in different breeding experiments from 1992 to 1999. it was selected as a superior line in all experiments. in 2001 this line was evaluated with other six lines for drought tolerance, and it was found to be more tolerant than cv. daneshkadeh the check cultivar. line g1...
