cumin (cuminum cyminum l.) is one of the most important cultivable medicinal plants in iran and today, it is the second most popular spice in the world after black pepper. it is essential to know the relationships between yield and its components in cumin breeding programs. therefore, different multivariate statistical analysis was performed on plant characters in cumin to determine the relatio...

to study the effect of plant density on seed yield and yield components of two lentil cultivars a field experiment using factorial design based on a complete block design was conducted with three replications at research farm of college of agriculture and natural resources, university of tehran (karaj) in 2008. treatments were lentil varieties (ziba, mardom), and plant densities (80, 160, 240, ...

in order to study compatibility of 30 white bean genotypes under karaj climate, an experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with four replications. evaluation and statistical analysis was performed for 18 important traits. analysis of variance results showed that there are significant differences between varieties for all traits. results of genotypes means comparison w...

A field experiment was conducted at the Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University Farm, Dhaka 1207 during the period from December 2008 to April 2009 to study the role of potassium and sulphur on the growth, yield and oil content of soybean (Glycine max var.BARI Soybean-5). The experimental soil was clay loam in texture having pH of 6.3. The experiment included four levels of potassium viz. 0, 20, ...

in order to evaluate the effects of different levels of water and plant density on yield, yield components, morphological and physiological characteristics of a new corn hybrid (ksc 500), an experiment was carried out in 2006 in karaj area. the experimental design was split plot based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications. main plots were three irrigation levels: 75%, 100...

five genotypes of chickpea as a half diallel crossed with each other, in 2008, 5 parents and 10 progenies were planted as randomized complete block design and some traits including days to podding, basal pod height, number of pods per plant, number of double seed pods per plant, number of single seed pods per plant, number of empty pods per plant, seeds per plant and seed yield per plant were e...

to study the effect of plant density and planting pattern on iranian ox-tongue, an experiment carried out with two factors: planting pattern (square and rectangular pattern) and plant density (2, 4, 6, 8 plant m-2) in a factorial test performed based on rcbd in 3 replications during 2009-2010 in latmahalleh eshkevarat village in guilan province, iran. characteristics that measured included: dry...

Plant height is a major trait affecting yield potential in rice. Using a large-scale hybrid transcription factor approach, we identified the novel MYB-like transcription factor OsMPH1 (MYB-like gene of Plant Height 1), which is involved in the regulation of plant height in rice. Overexpression of OsMPH1 leads to increases of plant height and grain yield in rice, while knockdown of OsMPH1 leads ...
