this experiment was carried out in factorial arrangement based on randomized complete block design with three replications in agricultural and natural resources research center of markazi province, arak (iran) during 2008-2009 growing season. three application rates of sulphur (s1=0, s2= 40 and s3=80 kg/ha) and three rapeseed varieties (okapi, modena and licord) comprised the experimental facto...

Information on the economic characters was derived from ninety-two varieties of soybean. Analysis of variance was carried out for the data recorded on plant height, nodes plant, branches plant, 100-seed weight, days to 50 % flowering, days to maturity, grain yield, oil and protein content. Results revealed highly significant differences among varieties for all the characters. High heritability ...

in order to evaluate the seed yield and qualitative traits and oil in some winter rapeseed (brassica napus l.) varieties as affected by micronutrient elements, this experiment was performed during 2011 - 2012 cropping seasons as split plot arrangement in randomized complete block design with three replications, in arak, iran. micronutrient fertilizers including of zero as check, fe, zn, mn, fe ...

In order to study the effect of irrigation interval, N fertilizer and superabsorbent on yield and qualitative traits of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.), a split-split-plot experiment was coducted in a farm in Khusf of Birjand, Iran in 2009 on the basis of a Randomized Complete Block Design. The main plot was devoted to irrigation interval at three levels of 6, 12 and 18 days, the sub-plot was devot...

vernonia galamensis cass is a huge potential industrial crop with very high content of vernolic acid in the seed oil. the experiment was carried out to determine the effect of inter- and intra- row spacing on the yield and yield related traits of vernonia galamensis cas.the experiment was conducted for two years during 2014-2015 on experimental field of wondo genet agricultural research center,...

Seed oil is important not only for human and animal nutrition, but also for various industrial applications. Numerous genetic engineering strategies have been attempted to increase the oil content per seed, but few of these strategies have involved manipulating the transporters. Pyruvate is a major source of carbon for de novo fatty acid biosynthesis in plastids, and the embryo's demand for pyr...

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...

In order to investigate the effect of micronutrients foliar application on seed yield and essential oil of black cumin, a field experiment was conducted based on Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications at the farmlocated in Naqadeh city, West Azerbaijan province, Iran, during 2015-2016 growing season. Treatments were separate application of Nano-Iron, Nano-Zinc and Nano-...

disadvantages such as indeterminate inflorescence and high seed shattering during ripening are significant restrictions to introduce evening primrose as a commercial medicinal plant. following to the last works, a pot experiment was conducted to clarify the influence of defoliation before harvest on the seed yield, oil and gla (gamma-linolenic acid) percentage of evening primrose growing under ...
