The grain quality of chickpea in Iran is low and instable, which may be attributed to the evolution of cultivars with a narrow genetic base making them vulnerable to biotic stresses. Four chickpea varieties from diverse geographic origins were chosen and arranged in a randomized complete block design. Mesorhizobium sp. cicer strain SW7 was added to all the chickpea seeds. Chickpea seeds were pl...

Objective: Drought stress is most important factor which reduce root and shoot growth in crops. This study was performed in order to evaluate the effects of drought stress and Zn fertilizer on root traits of four cultivars of chickpea. Methods: Experiment was laid out in a split plot-factorial using randomized complete block design with three replications. Drought stress treatment stand in main...

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...

─This study was conducted to investigate the efficacy of five herbicides on narrow leaved weeds and growth and yield of wheat. An experiment was conducted at Agronomic Research Farm, University of Agriculture Faisalabad. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block designee (RCBD) with three replications. Treatments studied were clodinafop (Topic-15 WG) at 37 g a.i. ha, clodinafop (...

long season and high temperature during spring in hot and dry areas has led to tendency for autumn planting. in order to evaluation of chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) autumn planting possibility, a field experiment was done at the agricultural faculty and natural resources of saravan research field in 2010. experimental design was done as split plots based on randomized complete block design with...

In context of climate change, yield potential chickpea is hampered by heat stress. Increasing area rice fallows, shifting in cropping system and global warming, needs to identify the genotypes tolerant high temperature. With this objective an experiment was conducted during winter (rabi) season 2020–21 at seed breeding farm Jawaharlal Nehru Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh rando...

abstract nickel is a heavy metal distributed ubiquitously in nature. it accumulates in soil as a result of human activities, including mining and industries development. it may be poisonous to plants, humans, animals and microorganisms. the present study was implemented as a factorial experiment with a randomized complete block design (rcbd), of three replications in calcareous soils of karaj a...
