Since many of the quantitative plant characters of economic values are highly influenced by environmental condition, the progress in breeding in such a population is primarily conditioned by the magnitude, nature and inter-relations of genotypic and non-genotypic variations in plant characters. Therefore we estimated phenotypic, genotypic and environmental correlation coefficients and path coef...

The effect of five row spacings (RS) on source/sink processes in a plant crop of NCo376 was investigated at Mount Edgecombe. Tiller population (TPOP), fractional light interception (FI), intercepted radiation (RADI), cane and sucrose yields were recorded over the duration of growth. The crop was fully drip irrigated in order to avoid water stress conditions. Differences in FIPAR between the tre...

A rotary tiller or rotavator is active tillage equipment used to prepare farmland for sowing seeds, weeding, mixing manure and fertiliser into the soil, crushing soil blocks, etc. Compared with conventional farming, advantages of this are rapid seedbed preparation reduced draught. Nowadays, utilisation rate tillers has increased. However, blades key component that engages in tiller. These inter...

Soil compaction has a real effect on rice growth in the Mekong Delta. The correlation between soil and (tiller number plant height) paddy field An Giang province was evaluated 2020 Winter-Spring Summer-Autumn crops using Pearson's test. research results show that 0-20 cm from surface positive with tiller number, while height is non-significant. Therefore, prediction model for numbers constructe...

Establishment of perennial grass seedlings is critical for repairing rangeland ecosystems in the Western United States. Mineral N in the soil may be one of the controlling factors for seedling establishment and may improve the competitive ability of perennial grasses compared to the annual grass, cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.). A greenhouse experiment was conducted to investigate the effects o...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS To improve the management of grass communities, early plant development was compared in three species with contrasting growth forms, a caespitose (Lolium perenne), a rhizomatous (Poa pratensis) and a caespitose-stoloniferous species (Agrostis stolonifera). METHODS Isolated seedlings were grown in a glasshouse without trophic constraints for 37 d (761 degrees Cd). The appea...
