in order to investigate the effect of high density and depth of planting on agronomic characteristic of saffron, a field experiment was conducted as a complete randomized block design with three replications in faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran during two growing seasons of 2008-2009 and 2009-2010. treatments were six levels of high densities (8, 11, 13, 16, 19 and 21...

recently, biofertilizer application is growing to meet sustainable agriculture goals. the present experiment was designed to evaluate four nitrogen levels (0, 60, 90 and 120 kg n.ha-1) as main plots, two supernitroplus biofertilizer levels) with and without biofertilizer) as sub-plots on yield and yield components of three sesame cultivars (naz, oltan and varamin (as sub-sub-plots in a split-sp...

.in order to investigate the effects of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria and nitrogen fertilizer on morphological traits of german chamomile (matricaria chamomilla l.), a field experiment was carried out as factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replications in research farm of the faculty of agriculture, university of tabriz, iran, during 2007-2008. factors were ino...

to investigate the relationship between different traits, discover factors affecting this relationship and to identify components of seed yield in cultivated and wild safflower genotypes, this investigation was conducted at isfahan university of technology research farm under two different water regimes during 2008. significant differences were observed between genotypes belonged to the two spe...

Verde plant bugs, Creontiades signatus Distant (Hemiptera: Miridae), were released onto caged cotton, Cossypium hirsutum L., for a 1-wk period to characterize the effects of insect density and bloom period of infestation on cotton injury and yield in 2011 and 2012, Corpus Christi, TX. When plants were infested during early bloom (10-11 nodes above first white flower), a linear decline in fruit ...

in order to evaluate the effects of different plant densities and nitrogen levels on growth, yield and qualitative characteristics of marigold, a field experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design with four replications at the agricultural research station, azad university of torbat-e-jam, during growing season of 2008-2009. main and sub plots were four nitro...

five carnation cultivars (‘grand salam’, ‘nelson’, ‘kaly’, ‘cinderella’ and ‘tempo’) were evaluated with respect to growth, yield and quality characteristics under lath house conditions at kala shah kaku research station, directorate of floriculture, lahore during 2011. among the cultivars studied, maximum plant height was recorded in carnation cultivar ‘grand salam’ (78.66 cm) closely followed...

introduction saffron as a food, spicy and medicinal plant has more than 62000 ha under cultivation with about 250 tons annual dry stigma production in iran, which includes about 90% of its world production. therefore, this plant has a specific value in agricultural export products of iran (fallahi et al., 2014). due to the important role of saffron in iran’s agroecosystems, the improvement of i...

According to the result of current study, plant height, canopy, stem girth, number primary branches and total dry matter at 30 DAT, 60 90 DAT were recorded maximum with application 100% RDF. The yield parameters, such as a flowers per plant, yield/plant, yield/plot yield/ha., flowering minimum days first flower bud appearance, 50% flowering, harvest duration, i.e., highest gross return/ha net b...

abstract for evaluation and identification some of the chamomile species in two genera anthemis and matricaria, morphological and phonological characteristics were used. the experiment was conducted in a randomized completely blocks design (rcbd) with three replicates, sixteen quantitative and qualitative traits were evaluated such as plant height, anthodium diameter, receptacle diameter, ligul...
