Twenty six accessions of grain Amaranth (Amaranthus hypochondriacus L.) were evaluated for salient biochemical and quantitative traits particularly reference to chlorophyll a and b, total chlorophyll, phenol content, leaf moisture, leaf protein content, test weight and yield plant. Genetic divergence and association among these traits were analysed. Chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophy...

objective: evaluation activity was conducted using three spearmint genotypes (wg-spm-engl, spm-fran and spm-eas) and one standard check (wgsm-03) at wondo genet, awassa, debre zeit and allagae during 2012 and 2013 for two years. methods: the treatments were arranged in randomized complete block design with four replications. data on leaf to stem ratio, leaf yield/ha, essential oil content and e...

We examined three different-ploidy wheat species to elucidate the development of aboveground architecture and its domesticated mechanism under environment-controlled field conditions. Architecture parameters including leaf, stem, spike and canopy morphology were measured together with biomass allocation, leaf net photosynthetic rate and instantaneous water use efficiency (WUE(i)). Canopy biomas...

in order to study the interrelations of photosynthetic rate and surfaces and leaf proline content with yield and yield components of safflower under different irrigation regimes, a field experiment in a split plot arrangement under a ranomized complete block design with four replication was performed at lavark reasrch farm, isfahan university of technology, isfahan, iran in 2007. two irrigation...

evaluating of some physiological indices for recognizing water deficit effects, selecting water deficit tolerant oilseed rape genotypes and also evaluation of drought effects on seed and oil yields and its components were the goals of this study. the experiment was conducted as factorial based on a randomized complete blocks design with three replications in east azarbaijan research center for ...

Crops growing in salt-affected soils may suffer from physiological droughtstress, ion toxicity, and mineral deficiency which then lead to reduced growth andproductivity. A pot experiment was conducted to study the effect of differentsalinity levels, i.e. ECe=3 dS m-1 (control), 8, 12 and 16 dS m-1 on wheat grainyield, yield components and leaf ion uptake. Desired salinity levels were obtainedby...

Two sesame cultivars (Sesamum indicum L.) were evaluated using various 3 different sowing dates (20 th June, 10 th and 30 th July) and four nitrogen levels (0, 40, 80 and 120 kg N ha -1 ) at the New Developmental Farm of The University of Agriculture, Peshawar, Pakistan during summer 2012. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with split plot arrangement using f...

physiological study of wheat varieties under abiotic stress conditions is a very important factor for improving their future productions. this research work was conducted in the research greenhouse of faculty of agriculture, tarbiat modarres university in 2006, to study leaf quantitative traits of durum wheat under different levels of carbon dioxide (400 and 900 ppm), ultraviolet radiation (uv ...

To study the effect of chemical and biological fertilizers on growth and essential oil content of lavender (Lavandula angustifolia Mill.), the present work was conducted in 2012-2013 at the experimental field of Alborz Research Station of the Research Institute of Forests and Rangelands, Karaj, Iran. The experiment was conducted in factorial in the form of a randomized complete block design wit...
