in order to investigate the yield and yield components of four lentil genotypes (local line, local bulk, ill-10314 and ill-6037 genotypes) as affected by three urea nitrogen levels including 0, 45 and 90 kg ha-1, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was carried out in agriculture and natural resources research center of ardabil, during 2008. b...

Identifying yield and grain plumpness QTL that are independent of developmental variation or phenology is of paramount importance for developing widely adapted and stable varieties through the application of marker assisted selection. The current study was designed to dissect the genetic basis of yield performance and grain plumpness in southern Australia using three doubled haploid (DH) popula...

spatial patterns of soil fertility parameters, and other extrinsic factors need to be iden-tified to develop farming practices that match agricultural inputs with local crop needs. little is known about the spatial structure of yield and weed density across fields. in this study, geostatistics was used to describe and map spatial patterns of soil total nitrogen, available phosphorus, available ...

a field experiment was conducted in 2010, to evaluate the effects of plant density (d1, d2 and d3: 8, 14 and 20 plant/m2) on field performance of sorghum under different nitrogen application rates (n1, n2 and n3: application of 40, 80 and 120 kg/ha nitrogen, respectively). the experiment was arranged as factorial based on randomized complete block design in three replicates. results indicated t...

in this study theeffect ofdrought stress was investigated on grain yield and oil rate and protein percentage of four varieties of castor in the climatic conditions of damghan. the experiment was done in the research farm of damghan islamic azad university(iran)in 2011 assplit plots in a randomized complete block design with three replications. the main plots of drought stress were 5, 10 and15 d...

effects of organic manure (poultry manure) applied alone and integrated with inorganic fertilizer (urea) on yield and yield component, n-uptake and soil fertility in wheat-maize cropping system was evaluated in a field experiment at nuclear institute for food and agriculture, peshawar, pakistan. poultry manure was applied alone and were integrated in different proportions with mineral nitrogeno...
