Context Yield losses in lentil (Lens culinaris ssp. Medik.) caused by weeds are estimated at 20–80%. In the absence of effective broad-spectrum herbicides, menace weed has emerged as a serious yield constraint lentil. Aims Identification tolerance to two post-emergence imazethapyr and metribuzin. Methods 221 accessions were screened experimental research station International Center for Agricul...

This study was conducted under laboratory conditions to investigate the effects of herbicides (nicosulfuron, metribuzin and glyphosate) on the number of actinomycetes in soil and growth of several isolates of actinomycetes in vitro. The lowest tested concentrations equalled the recommended rates (1X), while the other three were five-fold (5X), ten-fold (10X) and fifty-fold (50X). Samples were c...

Field and greenhouse experiments were conducted during 2005 and 2006 at Stoneville, MS, to determine control of ragweed parthenium with several preemergence (PRE) and postemergence (POST) herbicides registered for use in corn, cotton, peanut, rice, and soybean. Norflurazon, pendimethalin, clomazone, diuron, fluometuron, pyrithiobac, dimethenamid, flumetsulam, imazaquin, s-metolachlor, metribuzi...

in order to study the effect of trifluralin herbicide soil residues on growth and nodulation of chickpea genotypes, a greenhouse experiment was conducted at ferdowsi university of mashhad. a factorial experimental was conducted based on completely randomized design with three replications. treatments included of four genotyps of chickpea (hashem, ilc, kaka and kermanshahi) and seven concentrati...

to study the effects of integration of mechanical control with herbicides on yield and yield components of soybean (glycine max) a field experiment was conducted during 2003-2004 at the research farm of agronomy department, agriculture campus of tehran university, karaj. a randomized complete block design (rcbd) of 18 treatments was applied, each treatment being replicated 3 times. treatments i...

Polyploids of many species horticultural plants are widely used in breeding programs since they characterized by vigorous growth, larger organs, and greater resistance to biotic abiotic stress. Saskatoon berry (Amelanchier alnifolia Nutt.) is a form diploid (2n = 2x 34) tetraploid. So far, no reports on induction polyploidy this have been found. The aim the study was obtain octoploids with use ...

in order to investigate the effect of chemical herbicides on control of broad leaf weeds of common bean, an experiment was conducted in 2007 at yasouj with 12 treatments in a randomized complete block design with 3 replications. treatments consisted of preplant application of trifluralin herbicide at 960 g ai ha-1; postemergence application of bentazon at 1200 g ai ha-1; imaztapir at 50, 75 and...
