the objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of nitrogen fertigation frequency on lint yield, lint properties, chlorophyll content (spad readings), and the photosynthesis rate (pr) of cotton. this study was carried out in the southeastern anatolia region of turkey in 2011 and 2012 with drip-irrigated cotton. the maximum lint yield (1,856 kg ha-1) was obtained with one lateral for e...

This paper evaluates the influence of genotype on the photosynthetic activity of hops in the period critical for generating yield. Results over three years from measuring the photosynthesis rate statistically show an increase in the photosynthetic activity of hop plants in the flowering stage. The average photosynthetic rates from measurements on the second date (BBA 65) in the years 2007, 2008...

this study was conducted to determine the effects of stomatal size and frequency on stomatal conductance, photosynthesis rate and yield, and to locate the genes controlling these traits. therefore, substitution lines series of ‘timstein’ (tim) into genetic background of ‘chinese spring’ (cs) were tested in a completely randomized block design with three replications under two normal and water s...

in order to study of some effective phenologic and physiologic characteristics on 18 sunflower hybrids yield under optimum conditions, an experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications at the research field of seed and plant improvement institute-karaj in 2006-2007. the result indicated that the hybrids showed significant difference in phonologic characteri...

Photosynthesis is the basis of primary productivity on the planet. Crop breeding has sustained steady improvements in yield to keep pace with population growth increases. Yet these advances have not resulted from improving the photosynthetic process per se but rather of altering the way carbon is partitioned within the plant. Mounting evidence suggests that the rate at which crop yields can be ...

evaluating fertilizer quality is important in selecting the appropriate fertilizers for agricultural production. in this experiment, the effectiveness of composite inorganic fertilizer (cif), composite organic fertilizer (cof) and foliar spray of multi-nutrients (fsmn) on the growth, yield, and fruit quality of cherry tomato (lycopersicon esculentum mill.) were compared. the results showed that...

jasmonate is new plant growth regulator that plays an essential role at increasing plants resistance to the environmental stresses like salinity stress. hence, in this research the effect of foliar application of methyl jasmonate on some physiological indices and yield of german chamomile under salinity conditions was studied. a factorial experiment was laid out based on randomized complete blo...

Effect of Seed Biofertilizers Inoculation on Photosynthesis Rate, Yield, and Competitiveness Ability Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) with Weeds

 Net photosynthesis rate (Pn), stomatal conductance (gs) and transpiration rate (E) of anise hyssop were measured during the four cloudless days, in reference to diurnal fluctuations of leaf temperature (Tleaf), leaf vapor pressure deficit (VPD leaf) and photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) in well watered (WW), stressed (S) and recovered (R) plants. An analysis of measured data showed tha...
