Planting density and yield of sweet pepper grown in an organic system

Growth, yield index, and photosynthesis traits of sweet pepper grown in vermicompost inoculated with Arbuscular mycorrhiza

ABSTRACT- The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of “Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi” (AM fungi) density and different growing media on the growth, photosynthesis parameters and yield of sweet pepper under greenhouse conditions. The experiment was conducted as a factorial plan based on control randomized design (CR...

Effect of Ultrasonic Atomizer on the Yield and Yield Components of Tomato Grown in a Vertical Aeroponic Planting System

Aeroponic planting is proved to be the one of the most efficient growing environments for many vegetable crops. In this technique, plants are cultivated in absence of soil and the required nutrients are directly supplied to the roots through a fogging system. In modern sprayers, water is atomized by means of ultrasound waves. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of ultraso...

Effect of planting density on yield and yield components of triticale in comparison to barley

How to Reduce Yield Fluctuations in Sweet Pepper?

Flushing, i.e. cyclic fluctuations in fruit yield, is an important problem in sweet pepper production. These fluctuations result from cyclic variations in fruit set. Therefore, the relationship between fruit set and plant sink and source strength was investigated in several greenhouse experiments. A decrease in plant source strength by decreasing inter-plant distance or light intensity or by le...

Responses of soybean yield and yield components to light enrichment and planting density

Light intensity intercepted by the soybean canopy during the reproductive period is an important environmental factor determining soybean yield components and grain yield. A 2-year field experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of light enrichment and its interaction with planting density on yield formation of soybean cultivars. Light enrichment increased seed yield per plant and yie...
