productivity in drylands Indonesia. Trials of hybrid maize candidates several locations and different seasons are highly needed to determine the stability prior commercial release. The objectives research were: (1) evaluate performance hybrids seasons; (2) assess early-maturing grain yield characteristics genotypes evaluated (3) that can be released as new superior/elite varieties. was conducte...

Many studies on broccoli have analyzed the functional components and their functionality in terms of antioxidant and anticancer activities; however, these studies have focused on the florets of different varieties. Investigation of the functionality of broccoli by-products such as leaves, stems, and leaf stems from different cultivars and harvest dates might be valuable for utilizing waste mate...

There are generally four recognized classes of japonica rice cultivars grown in the lower region of the Yangtze River valley. The geographical distribution of the four classes is latitude-dependent. Variation for heading date (HD) among 29 japonica rice cultivars grown in the lower region of the Yangtze River valley and belonging to the four classes was characterized, and their sensitivity to v...

The Knowledge Maturing Phase Model has been presented as a model aligning knowledge management and organizational learning. The core argument underlying the present paper is that maturing organizational knowhow requires individual and collaborative reflection at work. We present an explorative interview study that analyzes reflection at the workplace in four organizations in different European ...

in order to study the phenological and morphological characteristics, comparison of yield and yield components, correlation between traits and determination of the parameters affecting seed yield, a field experiment was carried out at the research farm of shahrekord university in 2007. ten lentil genotypes were compared by a randomized complete block design with three replications. the analysis...

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is one of the four major staple crops and world's most important vegetable protein source. Very little information available on performance, yield, cultivars soybean when choosing a cultivar to grow in Pacific Northwest (PNW). Of oilseed crops, appears have best potential be grown at profit (high yields) PNW considering high input costs for irrigated crops. The ...

Steers (n = 335) of known genetic background from four fundamentally different growth types were subjected to two production systems to study differences in cooking loss (CL), tenderness, and chemical composition. Growth types were animals with genetic potential for large mature weight-late maturing (LL), intermediate mature weight-late maturing (IL), intermediate mature weight -early maturing ...
