To investigate the effect of drought stress and plant density on yield and yield components of maize KSc 301 hybrid, a two-year study (2007-2008) was carried out in Varamin Agricultural Research Center by using strip split plot randomized based on complete block design in three replications. Four water stress levels (before flowering, during flowering and grain filling stage and no stress) were...

    Abstract:   This research was conducted to investigate the effect of sowing date on growth and yield of five rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) cultivars. The experimental design consisted of four randomized complete blocks (CRDB) in a split-plot arrangement. Four convetional sowing dates (11 September, 27 September, 12 October and 27 October) as main plots and five rapeseed cultivars (RGS00...

An experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of irrigation levels, based on fraction of the class A Pan evaporation 0.8, 1.00 and 1.20% of ECA and spraying of different amount of salicylic acid (250and 500 Mm) and sprmine (10 Mm And 1 mm) on grain yield and seed quality characteristics of castor bean in during 2012 seasons. The experiment was split plot as randomized completed block d...

To study relationship between grain yield and important agronomic traits of rapeseed in paddy fields as second culture, fourteen varieties of spring rapeseed were grown in a randomized complete block design of experiment with three replications at Rice Research Institute of Iran, Rasht, during 2005-2006. Analysis of variance showed that there were significant differences between varieties for m...

Among soil and agronomic factors affecting growth, nutrition and plant density have a great effect on the growth and yield of crops such as Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.). In order to study the effect of different levels of nitrogen and plant density on yield and yield components, oil percentage and yield of Flax, a split plot experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with f...

In order to study the effects of different levels of nitrogen fertilizer and plant density on grain yield and its components in sunflower, an experiment was conducted using 'Record' cultivar at the Research Farm of College of Agriculture, Isfahan University of Technology in 1996. Four levels of nitrogen (0, 75, 150 and 225 kg/ha) and four plant densities (65000, 75000, 85000 and 95000 plants/ha...

In order to estimate the effects of general (GCA) and specific (SCA) combining ability, heterosis and genetic control of different traits in rapeseed including yield and seed oil content, six lines of spring type and three testers Opera, Parade and Licord of winter type were crossed in 2014-2015. The 18 progenies and their parents were evaluated in a randomized complete block design at the Dryl...
