in order to study the effects of micronutrients application on some morphological traits associated with seed quantity and quality of sugar beet cultivar shirin, an experiment was conducted in 2001-02 at ardabil agricultural research station. based on soil test results, soil ph was 7.62-7.80 with 0.49- 0.53% organic matter content, and the quantity of absorbable p, total n, and k amounts were f...

abstract almond is an important nut tree which is cultivated in many mediterranean countries. this study was carried out to study some vegetative and reproductive traits as well as qualitative and quantitative characteristics and their correlation in some self-compatible and self-incompatible genotypes obtained from crossing between touno (male parent) and shahrood 12 (female parent). quantitat...

a partial set of diallel crosses conducted among seven bread wheat genotypes contain (gasspard,m86-4,m86-6,dn-11,ws82-9 and m86-12) along with 21 hybrid, based on randomized complete block design(rcbd) with three replication were evaluated. the experiment was accomplished in a research field of agriculture and natural research center of tehran province in 2012-2013 in order to study genetic ana...

Purpose. To determine the yield and quality of different kidney bean varieties. Methods. Field (determination yield); laboratory 1000 kernel weight protein starch content in grain); mathematical statistical analysis. Results. On average, over two years research, highest (3.31 t/ha) was obtained ‘Podolianka’ variety, while lowest (1.02 ‘Dvadesiatytsia’. The at level 2.04–2.72 t/ha varieties ‘Bil...

Kernel weight is an important factor determining grain yield and nutritional quality in sorghum, yet the developmental processes underlying the genotypic differences in potential kernel weight remain unclear. The aim of this study was to determine the stage in development at which genetic effects on potential kernel weight were realized, and to investigate the developmental mechanisms by which ...

Considering the possibility of the harmful side effects of synthetic antioxidants, it is necessary to substitute the synthetic antioxidants by the natural ones, the antioxidants that have been consumed by man for years. The mango seeds were washed and air dried and the kernels were removed manually from the seeds. Mango seed kernel oil was extracted by hexane using soxhlet extraction apparatus....

This paper presents a new similarity measure for object recognition from large libraries of line-patterns. The measure draws its inspiration from both the Hausdor distance and a recently reported Bayesian consistency measure that has been sucessfully used for graphbased correspondence matching. The measure uses robust error-kernels to gauge the similarity of pairwise attribute relations de ned ...

In the spring of 1916, Prof. H.D. Hughes, of the Iowa Experiment Station, asked a number of experienced corn judges to score some five hundred ears of corn on the basis of what they thought the relative yields would be. These five hundred ears of corn were field run, varying from only three or four inches in length to more than ten inches. The variety was the college strain of Reid. In addition...

The present study was undertaken with the objective to determine the nature and magnitude of variability, degree of association between yield and it`s component characters and their direct, indirect effects on grain yield in rice (Oryza sativa L.). Thirty three genotypes were evaluated for identifying their efficiency with respect to 20 yield and quality traits. High heritability with high gene...
