This experiment was conducted during autumn growing season of 2016-2017 under unheated greenhouse environment at the field station college Agriculture-University Tikrit to study effect seaweed, and organic extracts spraying on growth yield tomato's (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) three hybrids. The following nutrients were used; Alga600, Seaweed, Max in addition control treatment. hybrids were; ...

BACKGROUND The complex network of direct and indirect relationships determines not only the species abundances but also the community characteristics such as diversity and stability. In this context, seed predation is a direct interaction that affects the reproductive success of the plant. For Acrocomia aculeata, the seed predation by Pachymerus cardo and Speciomerus revoili in post-dispersal m...

Since the fruits would be apt to perishable and disease in open field cultivation of processing tomatoes, we attempted vertical double-shoots attracting secure a stable yield this experiment. The control plot (untreated plants) (cultivated by attracted 1st 2nd lateral shoots below top flower truss) were set. There was no difference between both plots on first flowering date. Although number flo...

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect calcium supplementation on saline water as a minimizing agent stress in okra cultivars. experiment carried out greenhouse Mossoró-RN using completely randomized experimental design 2x5 factorial scheme with four replications. Two cultivars (Santa Cruz 47 and Valença) were tested fertigated five fertigation managements [F1= irrigati...

Soilless crop production is spread worldwide. It a cultivating technique that enhances yield quality and quantity, thus contributing to both food safety security. However, in closed-loop soilless crops, the risk of spreading soil-borne pathogens through recycled nutrient solution makes establishment disinfection strategy necessary. In current study, sodium hypochlorite was applied as chemical d...

tomato plays an important role in providing vitamins and minerals in human nutrition, it has a great potential in exports. as well as it is an important vegetable due to its variety of vitamins, carotene, useful acids, sugar and minerals play an important role in human health. regarding the fact that tomato is one of the most significant products and its consumption is rising up day after day, ...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the nutritional state, yield and composition of peaches on peach trees subjected to the application of organic compost to the soil. This experiment was conducted during the 2008 and 2009 cropping season in an orchard containing Chimarrita cultivars grafted onto Capdeboscq rootstocks and Haplumbrept soils in the municipality of Farroupilha (Rio Grande do...

A study was undertaken to analyses the heritability, correlation and path co-efficient for growth and fruit characters in twenty ber (Ziziphus mauritiana Lam) genotypes grown at Fruit Research Farm under Horticulture Research Centre, BARI during January to June 2006. The highest range of variation was recorded in fruit weight (6.63-44.72 g), followed by yield per plant (14.88 64.99 kg), stone w...

Data on multiple paternity within broods has been gathered in several animal species, and comparable data in plants would be of great importance to understand the evolution of reproductive traits in a common framework. In this study, we first isolated and characterized six microsatellite loci from the dioecious plant Silene latifolia (Caryophyllaceae). The polymorphism of the loci was assessed ...
