Fruit and Seed Characteristics of Diploid Seedless Watermelon (Citrullus lanatas) Cultivars Produced by Soft-X-irradiated Pollen.

effect of seed priming and irrigation regimes on yield,yield components and quality of safflowers cultivars

این مطالعه در سال 1386-87 در آزمایشگاه و مزرعه پژوهشی دانشگاه صنعتی اصفهان به منظور تعیین مناسب ترین تیمار بذری و ارزیابی اثر پرایمینگ بر روی سه رقم گلرنگ تحت سه رژیم آبیاری انجام گرفت. برخی از مطالعات اثرات سودمند پرایمینگ بذر را بر روی گیاهان مختلف بررسی کرده اند اما در حال حاضر اطلاعات کمی در مورد خصوصیات مربوط به جوانه زنی، مراحل نموی، عملکرد و خصوصیات کمی و کیفی بذور تیمار شده ژنوتیپ های م...

Seed formation in triploid loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) through cross-hybridization with pollen of diploid cultivars

As the fruits of loquat (Eriobotrya japonica, 2n = 2x = 34) carry large seeds, the breeding of seedless loquat has long been a goal. The recent creation of triploid cultivars (2n = 3x = 51) and the application of gibberellins allow commercial production of seedless loquat, but the possibility of seed formation in triploid loquats has not been carefully investigated. Through crossing experiments...

Reaction of Ten Cultivars of Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) to a Puerto Rican population of Meloidogyne incognita.

Ten cultivars of watermelon were evaluated for their response to a Puerto Rican population of Meloidogyne incognita under greenhouse conditions in a 2-year study (1989 and 1990). Ten-day-old seedlings were planted in steam-sterilized soil in 15-cm-d plastic pots. The nematode inoculum consisted of 10,000 eggs and (or) second-stage juveniles (J2)/plant. The cultivars were Sugar Baby, Charleston ...

Phytochemical and Antibacterial properties of the seed of watermelon (Citrullus lanatus)

Analysis of Mineral Elements, Proximate and Nutritive value in Citrullus vulgaris Schrad. (Watermelon) seed extracts

Dietary elements, commonly known as dietary minerals are chemical elements required by living organisms other than the elements present in the common organic molecules. Dietary fibre and minerals are important for healthy functioning of the human body. The mineral nutrition is an important aspect and its pivotal role in human life provides healthy growth. The present study was undertaken to ana...
