Seeds of 4 cultivars of chickpea (2 desi, CSG 8962 and DCP 92-3, and 2 kabuli, CSG 9651 and BG 267) were grown under 0, 4, 6 and 8 dS m levels of salinity until maturity. Shoot and root dry weights, root shoot ratio and various yield parameters were evaluated under salinity at 40, 70 and 100 days after sowing. Salinity significantly reduced dry matter accumulation in both roots and shoots in al...

Combining ability, gene action and heterosis was studied for no. of days to 50% tasseling, no. of days to 50% silking, flag leaf area, plant height, no. of rows/ear, no. of grains/row, 300-grain weight and grain yield/plant in a Factorial Mating in Randomized Completely Randomized Design conducted separately in spring and autumn sowing dates, 2013 through hybridization between three parents of ...

this research was done to study the effect of swing date, temperature, and sunshine hours on the yield and yield components of soybean in aliabad katool area (golestan provience), iran in 2012 year. in order to this purpose different soybean fields with different swing date had been remarked in vast area of soybean fields of katool aliabad area. entirely, in this study 30 soybean fields of kato...

identification of morphological, phenological and yield characteristics of genotypes is important in order to collect necessary information for available varieties and as a result selection of one or more specific traits. in this study, 73 kabuli chickpea genotypes from pulses seed bank of research center for plant sciences, ferdowsi university of mashhad, were planted in irrigated conditions a...

Concerns related to the rise of disposition to the application of the medicinal plants throughout the world have gone up on their cultivation and production processes. In order to study the effect of planting seasons on morphological traits, yield, oil content and oil composition of black cumin, an experiment was conducted under field condition in Mashhad, Iran in 2012-2013 as a randomized comp...

using crop simulation models is an efficient complement to experimental research. crop models can also be helpful with respect to decision-making in sustainable farming system. this study was done to estimate genetic coefficients and evaluate performanced dssat in prediction of development, growth and yield in wheat. data from various field experiments for four wheat cultivars koohdasht, shirou...

Abstract Background Valine and isoleucine are similar in chemical structure their limitation broiler chicken diets. To evaluate interactive effects, multivariate assessment nutrition studies for the branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) needed. A three level (− 1, 0, + 1), three-factor Box-Behnken design study was conducted to assess dietary BCAA ratios lysine of 65, 75, 85 valine, 58, 66, 74 isole...

The present work was conducted to find out the effect of biofertilizer formulated with four species of bacteria (two species of Azotobacter and two species of Lysobacter) and zinc sulphate. Field experiments with mustard plant were conducted to study the effectiveness of soil application of zinc sulphate and biofertilizer at 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 days after sowing. Plant height and condition of...

Digestible lysine (dLys) and digestible threonine (dThr) are considered to be the second and third limiting amino acids (AA) after sulfur containing amino acids (dTSAA) for broilers fed corn-soybean meal-based diets. Diets formulated to meet the AA requirements of modern broiler strains are required to maximize performance. Currently, nutritionists formulate poultry diets using the ideal protei...
