Soil-incorporated rotation/green manure crops were evaluated for management of potato early dying caused by Verticillium dahliae and Pratylenchus penetrans. After two years of rotation/green manure and a subsequent potato crop, P. penetrans numbers were less after 'Saia' oat/'Polynema' marigold, 'Triple S' sorghum-sudangrass, or 'Garry' oat than 'Superior' potato or 'Humus' rapeseed. The area u...

To study interferential effect of lamb's-quarters (Chenopodium album L.) on marigold (Calendula officinalis) yield and lamb's-quarters seed production two factorial field experiments were conducted in Tabriz, Iran, during 2010-2011. Treatments were densities of lamb's-quarters (0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 plants per meter row) and relative times of its emergence (0, 10, 20, 30 and 40 days after marigold e...

Calendula officinalis L. is one of the important medicinal plants known as "Pot marigold" in world and has become widespread recent years due to its economic importance. Salt stress abiotic factors that limits crop productivity by affecting growth plants, especially arid semi-arid regions. These negative effects salt stress, which affects development causing osmotic ion plants; It varies depend...

The effects of pre-planted marigold on tomato root-galling and multiplication of Meloidogyne incognita, M. javanica, M. arenaria, and M. hapla were studied. Marigold cultivars of Tagetes patula, T. erecta, T. signata, and a Tagetes hybrid all reduced galling and numbers of second-stage juveniles (J2) in subsequent tomato compared to the tomato-tomato control. All four Meloidogyne spp. reproduce...

The major components patuletin and patulitrin were isolated from French marigold (florets of Tagetes patula). Patuletin and patulitrin were found to inhibit acute inflammation in mice. Oral administration of patuletin and patulitrin significantly suppressed hind-paw edema induced by carrageenin and histamine, while topical application of patuletin and patulitrin significantly inhibited ear edem...

introduction sustainability of agricultural systems may improve due to intercropping as a result of diversity increasing. marigold (calendula officinalis) is a major medicinal plant from asteraceae family, though weeds suppress it because of lower competitiveness against weeds. mungbean (vigna radiata) is a pulse crop from fabaceae family and is one of the major nutritive sources especially in ...
