one of the strategies for improving the quality of agricultural products is using bio-fertilizers. so in order to study the effects of mycorrhizal fungi, vermicompost and humic acid on growth characteristics and yield of fennel, an experiment was studied on research farm of agricultural college of shahrood university. this study was conducted as factorial experiment based on completely randomiz...

this study was performed in year 2010 to evaluate the effect of locality and date of collection on germination and growth of pimpinella aurea dc. seed. the experiment was a factorial one, based upon a completely randomized design of four replications. seeds were collected from three localities in tehran province (tochal, vardavard and lavasanat), at their initial developmental and fully develop...

in order to investigate genetic diversity of two flax species, 50 genotypes were evaluated. the results showed that there was significant difference between two subspecies and also among different regions in subspecies for some seed yield components and us subspecies was superior than md for number of capsules/plant but md subspecies had more 1000 seed weight. genetic variation in each region w...

To inform future R&D strategies for sustainable development pathways for the SAT Introduction Groundnuts are a major source of edible oils in India. One of the central problems of groundnut production and processing sectors are huge inefficiencies due to uncertain production environment owing to rainfed cultivation, less resource base of smallholder farmers and processors, and low adoption rate...

seed and oil yields, their components, and the relationships among trait performance were determined in 25genotypes of winter type oilseed rape (brassica napus l.). the experiment was carried out at the agricultural and natural resources research center of east azerbaijan, iran, in two consecutive growing seasons 2009-10 and 2010- 11. significant differences were observed in plant height, numbe...

We use an Eulerian Vlasov code to study the problem of the amplification of seed pulses by Brillouin backscattering in the strong-coupling regime. In this process, there is an energy transfer, mediated by a resonant ion wave, from a long, high energy pump electromagnetic wave, to an initially counter-propagating ultra-short seed pulse. The code solves the onedimensional Vlasov-Maxwell set of eq...

safflower oil seed has high adaptability to different kinds of abiotic stresses such as drought and salinity. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of drought stress at different phenological stages on relative water content (rwc), leaf canopy temperature, seed yield and its components in spring types of safflower. the study was carried out in east azarbaijan research center for agr...

HIGHLIGHTS Two varieties of wheat were irradiated with six doses γ radiation Seed germination, survivability and seedling length observed under laboratory conditions Plant height, panicle length, grains per 1000 seed weight was recorded for field studies LD50 DBW 187 K 1006 found to be 272.71 278.61 respectively. GR50 values 316.22 346.73

The goal of this study was to observe the impact of agro-management practices like, irrigation and nutrition on two pea (Pisum sativum) cultivars named Climax and Meteor at Horticultural Research Area, U.A.F. Growth parameters like Main stem Length (cm), number of leaves per plant, leaf Area (cm), number of pods per plant, length of pod (cm) number of seeds per pod and reproductive attributes l...
