An experiment was conducted to study the effects of different soil media on seed germination and seedling growth of peach during 2001 and 2002 in Orakzai Agency. Different soil media alone and in combination used for seed germination of peach were Farm Yard Manure, Saw dust, Canal silt, FYM + Sawdust, FYM + Canal silt, Sawdust + Silt and FYM + Sawdust +Silt. Different media showed non significa...

The performance of every plant in an environment is an indicator of how the plant can withstand the various environmental conditions. This study investigated the toxicity of crude oil on the growth performance, chlorophyll contents, enzymatic activities and oxidative stress biomarkers of eight accessions of Zea mays. The growth enzyme (amylase and invertase) activities, as well as oxidative s...

this experiment was conducted to investigate the genetic diversity, relationship between morphological, agronomic and qualitative traits and to identify components of forage yield using some multivariate statistical methods in local sainfoin populations. the experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications in agricultural and natural resources research center...

Field experiment was conducted at Akwa Ibom State University teaching and research farm during the 2020 2021 cropping seasons to evaluate growth yield of cocoyam on varying rates organic manure in a based-intercropping system Obio Akpa, Nigeria. Experiment laid out randomized complete block design with three replications. Treatments were four – PM 0 t/ha, 2.5 5.0 7.5 t/ha) crop mixtures - Sole ...

Studies on the effect of simulated acid raid rain (pH 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 and control pH 5.6) growth, yield mineral nutrient relations Capsicum frutescens (chilli pepper) was carried out. Simulated (SAR) prepared by adding sulphuric nitric in ratio 3:1 to distilled water get desired pH, sprayed plants. The experimental result indicated that under stress rain, growth parameters which include plan...

The field experiment was conducted to elicit information on the yield and nutrient uptake of elephant foot yam [Amorphophallus paeoniflorins (Dennest.) Nicolson] under fertigation at orchard, Department Vegetable Crops, TNAU, Coimbatore during year 2012-2013. laid out in randomized block design with three replications. growth attributes viz., plant height, canopy spread, leaf area, pseudo stem ...

An experiment was conducted at research field of Deendayal Upadhyay Centre Excellence for Organic Farming, CCS HAU, Hisar during the year 2021-22 to study effect different irrigation levels and mulching methods on performance organically cultivated drip irrigated papaya. The comprised nine treatments three viz. 50%, 75% 100% crop water requirement methods. results showed that plant height (238 ...

to investigate effect of calcium and growth medium on lilium (asiatic hybrid lilium bulbs “tresor” cultivar) and nutrients uptake, a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design was conducted by three levels of calcium in nutrient solution (2, 4 and 6 mm*) and five growth media (100% perlite, 70% perlite + 30% cocopeat, 50% perlite + 50% cocopeat, 30% perlite + 70% cocopeat, 100% ...

breeding based on selection indices is an effective method for improving complex traits such as yield. to assess the efficiency of different selection methods, 50 genotypes of tall fescue (festuca arundinace) were evaluated under two moisture conditions including full irrigation (normal environment) and deficit irrigation (stress environment). the experiment was conducted according to a randomi...
