Abstract Producing seeds from shallot flower requires proper pollination techniques to form pithy seeds. This study aims determine the effectiveness of several methods in producing true (TSS). The research was conducted Cilame Village, Ngamprah District, West Bandung Regency, Java at an altitude 900 m asl. used a completely randomized design (CRD) which consisted four treatments and six replica...

Objective: A field experiment was conducted to assess the optimum inter- and intra-row spacing on growth, yield and yield component of roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) in 2014/15 cropping season at Wondo Genet Agricultural Research Center experimental site (at Wondo Genet station). Methods: Two inter-row spacings (60 and 90 cm) and three intra-row spacings (30,...

Abstract Morningglories ( Ipomoea spp.) are among the most troublesome weeds in cucurbits United States; however, little is known about spp. interference with horticultural crops. Two additive design field studies were conducted 2020 at two locations Indiana to investigate of ivyleaf morningglory hederacea Jacq.), entireleaf Jacq. var. integriuscula A. Gray.), and pitted lacunosa L.) triploid w...

Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) is one of the world’s oldest oil crops and has been cultivated in Asia since ancient times. The breeding potential of the germplasm accessions held in PGRP gene-bank has hardly been exploited to date. This study was carried out to evaluate the phenotypic variability in the local sesame genotypes using 16 qualitative and quantitative traits. A total of 105 sesame acce...

opium poppy (papaver somniferum l.) has two major products: alkaloids in the capsules and the seeds.  the seed contains oil, protein, carbohydrate, moisture and mineral matters. the seed oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, particularly linoleic and oleic acid. remaining meals after oil extraction are the important source for animal diets. the united nations recognize turkey and india as tra...

Eastern deciduous forests are populated with a variety of hardwood species, with composition at large scales determined by a complex interplay of temperature, moisture, and disturbance. An understanding of seed production is important in the context of forest regeneration and wildlife management. We analyzed time series data obtained from the literature to investigate (1) the effects of life-hi...

Breeding by several of the spore-feeding species in the genus Phaulothrips is shown to be associated with abandoned tun-nels of bees and scolytid beetles, as well as with the dead seed capsules of Eucalyptus species. The breeding sites for other species in the genus remain unknown, but 16 species are here recognised from Australia, of which the following six are newly described: P. daguilaris, ...
