Common bean grain yield as affected by sulfur fertilization and cultivars

Soybean Photosynthesis Responses, Yield, And Grain Quality Affected by Vermicompost And Sulfur

Soybean (Glycine max L.) is considered as one of the major sources of oil and protein. In this study, the effects of vermicompost (VC) and sulfur (S) on soybean photosynthesis responses, yield, and grain quality were studied. To this end, a split-plot design field experiment based on randomized complete blocks with nine treatments and three replications was conducted in Aligudarz city Lorestan ...

Relationships between Grain Yield and Accumulation of Biomass, Nitrogen and Phosphorus in Common Bean Cultivars(1)

Shoot biomass is considered a relevant component for crop yield, but relationships between biological productivity and grain yield in legume crops are usually difficult to establish. Two field experiments were carried out to investigate the relationships between grain yield, biomass production and N and P accumulation at reproductive stages of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) cultivars. Nine an...

Dryland Wheat Grain Yield and Yield Components as Affected by Slope Direction and Residue Rates

Limited information is available on the effect of residues rates and slope direction on dryland wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield.  This study was carried out to determine the effects of residues rates and tillage direction on grain yield and yield components of the Sardary wheat in a dryland region in Zanjan. Five wheat residues rates (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100% surface cover) were applied and i...

Growth and grain yield of chickpea (Cicer arietinum) cultivars as affected by plant densities under the fall dry land farming

A field experiment was carried out during the 2013-2014 growing season in Lorestan Province (Iran) to evaluate the effect of three planting densities (30, 55, and 83 plant.m-2) on growth indices and grain yield of four chickpea cultivars (Azad, Hashem, Arman and ILC482) under the fall dry land farming condition. The experiment design was factorial based on a randomized complete block design (RC...
