The biochemical basis for the enhanced atrazine conjugation capacity in this biotype was examined. Glutathione le...

to evaluate the competition effect of velvetleaf on cotton, an experiment was conducted in a completelyrandomized block design with split plot arrangement of treatments with three replications at experimentalstation of gorgan university of agricultural sciences and natural resources during 2011 growingseason. the treatments were three row spacing (20, 40 and 80cm) of cotton (as main plot) and f...
