A study was conducted to evaluate the seasonal influence on yield and yield contributing characters of four lablab bean genotypes: IPSA Seam-1, IPSA Seam-2, BU Seam-3 and JER during September 2000 to December 2001 covering one main season (winter) and two off-seasons (early summer and late summer). Compared to off-seasons, all the genotypes performed better for all the parameters during winter....

according to the contradictory reports of researchers, tillers may have positive or negative effect on wheat yield. thus, this study was conducted to investigate the role of tillers on wheat yield under two row spacing of 12.5 and 25 cm and four plant densities of 125, 250, 375 and 500 plants per m2, at gorgan university of agricultural sciences and natural resources farm in anbare-ololum reign...

BACKGROUND In the emerging field of community and ecosystem genetics, genetic variation and diversity in dominant plant species have been shown to play fundamental roles in maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem function. However, the importance of intraspecific genetic variation and diversity to floral abundance and pollinator visitation has received little attention. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL F...

The main objective of this study was to determine the effects of vermicompost and amino acids on the qualitative and quantitative yield of chamomile. The experiment was conducted during the growing season of 2010 at the Alborz Medical Research Center. The Treatment groups consisted of vermicompost (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 tons/ha) and the sprays of amino acids (budding stag, flowering stage, and bu...

throughout the present study some vegetative and reproductive characteristics of rosa damascene fewer than three different irrigation regimes (100, 70 and 40% of potential evapotranspiration) through an application of surface vs subsurface drip irrigation systems were investigated. some morphological characteristics investigated, included the number of branches per plant, shading diameter, plan...

Simple phenotypic and genotypic correlation coefficients were calculated from 18 genotypes of glory lily (Gloriosa superba L.) during two seasons (2007 and 2008). Experiment was laid out in a randomized block design with three replications at the Medicinal Plants Unit, Botanical Garden, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India. Positive phenotypic and genotypic correlat...

Global warming can lead to considerable impacts on natural plant communities, potentially inducing changes in plant physiology and the quantity and quality of floral rewards, especially nectar. Changes in nectar production can in turn strongly affect plant-pollinator interaction networks-pollinators may potentially benefit under moderate warming conditions, but suffer as resources reduce in ava...

this research was conducted to study the effects of different salinity levels and exposure times on grain yield and yield components in a green-house experiment at gorgan university of agricultural science and natural resources during 2007- 2008 growing season. a factorial sand culture experiment with three completely randomized replications was used. salinity levels were -0.002, -0.25, -0.50, ...
