carbon dioxide (co2) concentration of the global atmosphere has increased during the last decades. increasing global atmospheric co2 concentrations are expected to influence crop production. in order to evolution of co2 concentration effects on morphophysiologycal traits in tagets, ageratum and gauilardia, a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with 3 replications and 12 t...

this study was conducted to evaluate different nutrient solutions effects on agria potato mini-tubers production under aeroponic system. the experiment was conducted in the laboratory and greenhouse of ardabil sabalan behparvar company in 2013. four recommended nutrient solutions including: lommen and struik (1992), kang and han (2005), otazu (2010) and hoagland and arnon (1950) were used in a ...

Salinity is an important abiotic stress that reduces growth and productivity of different crops. In many agricultural soils cyanobacteria or blue green algae are the prominent inhabitants, where they potentially contribute to improve soil fertility and crop productivity under normal and abiotic stress conditions. Glycinebetaine is an osmoprtectant compound improving plant tolerance to abiotic s...

to investigate the effect of spraying with different concentrations of vermiwash solution on the morphological traits, percentage and yield of essential oil of lemon balm (melissa officinalis l.), this experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design (rcbd) with four replications in experimental field of agricultural faculty of ferdowsi university of mashhad (fum). the treatments we...

investigation of the interrelationships between yield and its components will improve the efficiency of a breeding program with appropriate selection criteria. in this study, the relationship among yield components and their direct and indirect influences on the total yield of melon were investigated. the study was based on evaluation of 49 entries gener-ated from a 7×7 diallel involving irania...

Gladiolus (Gladiolus floribundus L.) is a bulbous ornamental plant belongs to family Iridaceae. It is an elegant cut flower grown for its magnificent spikes. The estimates of heritability varied from 99.5% to 61.1%. The highest heritability estimates in broad sense was observed for the characters vase life (99.5%) and lowest for height at 30 days after planting. Expected genetic advance express...

the present experiment was carried out to assess the general combining ability (gca) and specific combining ability (sca) of six important commercial cultivars of gossypium hirsutum l. of venezuela, viz., ‘deltapine 16’, ‘tamcot-sp-21’, ‘cabuyare’, ‘stoneville’, ‘ospino’ and ‘acala 90-1’ and their 15 f1 hybrids, respectively. the data were analyzed using griffing’s model i method ii. significan...

A field experiment was conducted on the Effect of phosphorus fertilizer and seed rates growth yield common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L) at Farm agriculture faculty Kunduz University during spring season 2023 to determine optimum for maximum in northeast Afghanistan (Kunduz province). The treatment consists three levels (0kgP2O5ha-1, 40kgP2O5ha-1 80kgP2O5ha-1) four combined (125 kgha-1, 150 175 k...

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...
