Analysis of yielding ability and growth patterns of mash bean (Vigna mungo L.Hepper.) genotypes were carried out on loamy sand soil during kharif season. Genotypic differences were observed with respect to extent of flower production/shedding, podding and crop durations. Plants of Mash338 were dwarf, erect, compact with determinate growth habit whereas Mash1-1 were tall, spreading with indeterm...

Growth response of sugar beet plants to drought stress applied at different growth stages has been investigated. Cessation of watering imposed moderate water stress and resulted in the reduction of the relative water content of young and old leaves maximally by 6%. However, water content in taproot was more drastically decreased than in the shoot. Water withholding reduced dry ma�er accumulatio...

The partitioning and quality of aboveground biomass have important ramifications for crop management and biomass conversion. In preliminary studies, Saccharum sp. Miscanthus sp. hybrids exhibited stubble cold tolerance in west-central Arkansas, unlike Saccharum sp. Saccharum spontaneum hybrids. The objective was to examine foliar and stem quality of the C4 grasses Miscanthus sinensis (‘Gracilli...

abstract the aim of this experiment was the study of freezing tolerance of bellis perennis under controlled conditions and were arranged in a completely randomized design with three replications. plants after sowing and grow in the bed, at the middle of autumn (after hardening in natural conditions), in the 7-8 leaf stage put on the thermogradiant freezer with the 12 freezing temperatures (0,-2...

in order to study the effect of strip intercropping of maize (zea mays l.) and bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) on the dry matter yield and land equivalent ratio (ler) in weedy and weed free treatments, an experiment was conducted at the agricultural station of college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran. treatments were strip width of 2, 3, 4 and 5 rows and sole cropping of each c...

the percentage of fat in liver wet and dry matter, liver moist and dry matter and their relationship were investigated based on species, sex and age of 384 slaughtered animals including 114 cows, 100 buffaloes, 147 sheep and 23 goats from 2008 to 2010 in urmia, iran. mean percentage of fat in liver wet and dry matter, and liver dry matter in cows were 3.6%, 1.1%, 29.7%, buffaloes were 5.3%, 1.5...
