in order to study the possibility of intercropping of basil and sesame, an experiment was carried out in a randomized complete block design with three replications at the sari agricultural sciences and natural resources university during growing season of 2009-2010. treatments consisted of different planting ratio, p1: sole cropping of basil, p2: 75% basil+ 25% sesame, p3: 50% basil+ 50 % sesam...

in order to evaluate intercropping of soybean (glycine max l. cv. jk) with sweet basil (ocimum basilicum l.) and borage (borago officinalis l.) with weed interference, an experiment was performed in randomized complete block design with 12 treatments and three replications at a field located 10 km of shirvan during year of 2011. the treatments were included 75% soybean: 25%sweet basil, 50%soybe...

For one of Canada’s most important regions crop production—the prairies—it’s uncertain if cover crops can be successfully integrated into rotations; so, will soil nitrogen (N) cycling influenced to benefit main crops? To address these gaps, we compared a rotation with (CC) vs. without (LR) from 2018 2021 in Saskatoon, SK. The were grown sequence wheat–canola–potato–pea; the included red clover,...

Live migration of virtual hard disks between storage arrays has long been possible. However, there is a dearth of online tools to perform automated virtual disk placement and IO load balancing across multiple storage arrays. This problem is quite challenging because the performance of IO workloads depends heavily on their own characteristics and that of the underlying storage device. Moreover, ...

The aim of this study was to assess the associative effects between orchardgrass () and red clover () silages as a model of preserved grass-legume mixture on voluntary intake parameters and digestive efficiency in sheep. Ten sheep were assigned to a repeated 5 × 5 Latin square design, in which 5 proportions of orchardgrass and red clover silages were tested (0:100, 25:75, 50:50, 75:25, and 0:10...

to investigate the effects of intercropping of basil (ocimum basiilicum l.) and cowpea (vigna unguiculata l.), different levels of nitrogen fertilizers on basil and cowpea yield, an experiment was carried out during 2010 and 2011. experimental factor were included weed treatment (weeding and unweeding), three levels of nitrogen fertilizer (0, 50 and 100 kg ha-1), different planting ratio, (p1: ...

Oilseed rape (OSR; Brassica napus ) is a globally important crop which increasingly under pressure from pests, pathogens and weeds. We investigated the potential of achieving multifunctional protection benefits by intercropping oilseed with legumes. A field experiment was conducted in winter intercropped annual frost sensitive legumes berseem clover ( Trifolium alexandrinum or spring faba bean ...

Basil (Ocimum L.), a medicinal and aromatic plant genus, is widely used in food and pharmaceutical industry for ages. Our previous studies reported high potential of essential oils in the unexplored and un-exploited landraces of Omani basil. In the present study, nine Omani landraces of common basil (Ocimum basilicum L.) were analyzed for the assessment of genetic diversity with RAPD markers. O...
