In order to study the effects of intercropping maize with legume on forage quantity, field experiments were carried out at the Agricultural Research Station, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tabriz, Iran, in 2006 and 2007 growing seasons. Two maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids (SC704, SC301), vetch (Vicia villosa), bitter vetch (Vicia ervilia), berseem clover (Trifolium alexandrinum L.) and commo...

This study was conducted to evaluate the responses of Iranian commercial genotypes of maize (hybrids and their inbred lines) to callus induction and plant regeneration, using mature embryos. Twenty five genotypes comprising of 12 inbred lines, 11 single cross hybrids, 1 double cross hybrid and 1 composite cultivar were used. Mature embryos of the genotypes were plated on MS and N6 media. Callus...

In order to evaluate the benefits of maize, pinto bean and naked pumpkin triple cropping, an experiment was carried out as a randomized complete block design with three replications at Faculty of Agricultural Science, University of Guilan, Rasht, Iran in 2012. The treatments consisted of maize, pinto bean and naked pumpkin sole cropping (100, 75 and 50% of conventional densities), maize – pinto...

     Decrease of water resources in temperate regions of Kermanshah province has caused the maize cultivation area decreased form 45 thousand hectares in 2008 to 7 thousand hectares in the crop year of 2016. This study aimed to evaluate and selecting drought tolerant hybrids and increased irrigation water efficiency using eight commercial maize hybrids (KSC 704, KSC 705, KSC 703, KSC 700, KSC 6...
