Throughout tomato domestication, a large increase in fruit size was associated with a loss of dry matter and sugar contents. This study aims to dissect the contributions of genetic variation and the physiological processes underlying the relationships between fruit growth and the accumulation of dry matter and sugars. Fruit quality traits and physiological parameters were measured on 20 introgr...

The effect of electromagnetic field was examined on Zinnia (Zinnia elegans) seeds to enhance seed germination and early growth. The seeds were exposed to four magnetic strengths of 15, 100, 400 and 800 mT in four durations of 30, 60, 120 and 240 min. The experiments were carried out in two forms of laboratory germination and soil emergence. Results showed that magnetic field application enhance...

throughout the present study some vegetative and reproductive characteristics of rosa damascene fewer than three different irrigation regimes (100, 70 and 40% of potential evapotranspiration) through an application of surface vs subsurface drip irrigation systems were investigated. some morphological characteristics investigated, included the number of branches per plant, shading diameter, plan...

the main objective of this study was to determine the influence of vermicompost and biostimulant on the growth and biomass in the coriander plant height, wet weight of plant ,dry weight of plant and biomass yield. the experiment was carried out as factorial experiment in the base of randomized complete blocks design with eight treatments and three replications at research field of agriculture c...

abstract coontail (ceratophyllum demersum) and watermilfoil (myriophyllum spicatum) are current submersed weeds in many fresh waters of iran. the excessive growth of these plants causes the reduction in utilization of water resources and making some ecological and economical damages in these areas. the aim of this study was to determine the response of two submerged aquatic weeds of coontail an...
