Effects of NPK 15:15:15 compound fertilizer and planting season on flowering and sex expression of pumpkin were analyzed at the Teaching and Research Farm, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria in year 2010. Results deciphered that day to 50% flowering, number of male and female flowers responded to season than fertilizer rates. Late season planting reached 50% flowering 5 days earlier t...

One of the most important anthropogenic pollution types in countries with oil production is soil and water contamination by petroleum. Phytoremediation is an emerging green technology for cleaning up polluted soil. A greenhouse experiment was conducted to study the effect of oil-contaminated soil on Echinacea purpurea with four concentrations of crude oil - contaminated soil: control = 0, 0.5% ...

This study was carried out in 3 gardens determined Başiskele, Körfez and Karamürsel districts of Kocaeli province 2017-2018. A cherry tree caged covered with a 4 mm x perforated net before flowering to prevent the penetration honey bees. Before beginning flowering, bee colony placed decares each garden removed at end period. As result our two field application aged 10 20 (with Ziraat 900 variet...

Climate change is affecting high-altitude and high-latitude communities in significant ways. In the short growing season of subarctic habitats, it is essential that the timing and duration of phenological phases match favorable environmental conditions. We explored the time of the first appearance of flowers (first flowering day, FFD) and flowering duration across subarctic species composing di...

Objective: Flowering Time (FT) in cereals controlled by genes that had a main factor on plant development. Methods: Genetic and phenotypic diversity of four flowering time genes (FT2, FT3, FT4, Ppd-H1) in 19 genotypes of cultivated and wild barley was evaluated and a total of 107 alleles were amplified. Genotypes based on days to flowering time and molecular data were grouped into earl...

In this study flowering time and other important morphologic traits were evaluated during two years in F1 almond progenies of seventy two seedlings from cross between the intermediate flowering Italian cultivar ‘Tuono’ and the extra-late blooming Iranian cultivar ‘Shahrood-12’. A modified-bulk segregant analysis in combination with the application of the 140 RAPD primers, 87 nuclear ...

in order to select of the best nectarine cultivars in meshkinshahr environmental condition, 11 cultivars of nectarines (including: independence, star redgold, stark sunglow, sanking, quata, shabrang e karaj, germez-e-paeez-e-mashad and 4 new imported cultivars including: winberger, vega, orion and gioia) were grafted on misory peach rootstock. cultivars were planted in randomized complete block...
