The quality of grains and flour can be influenced by genetics, crop management, environment. objective this study was to evaluate the technological wheat interaction among genotype, nitrogen (N) fertilization weather conditions in different regions adaptation southern Brazil, aiming support farmers bakery industry sector their decision-making processes. experiment carried out three environments...

to evaluate the effect of various levels of nitrogen fertilizer on nitrogen use efficiency and grain yield of canola cultivars, a split plot experiment based on randomized complete block design was conducted in 2007. factors were: nitrogen fertilizer at four levels (zero, 50, 100 and 150 kg/ha) in the main plots and canola cultivars at three levels (‘clover’, ‘opera’ and ‘okape’) in the sub plo...

a field study was conducted at the college of agriculture, shiraz university, shiraz, iran to evaluate the effect of different crop residue and nitrogen rates on yield and yield components of two dryland wheat (triticum aestivum l.) cultivars. the experiment was conducted as a strip split plot with four replications. vertical plots included two dryland current wheat cultivars (azar2 and nicknej...

Zinc (Zn) deficiency is a common disorder of humans in developing countries. The effect of Zn biofortification (via application of six rates of Zn fertilizer to soil) on Zn bioavailability in wheat grain and flour and its impacts on human health was evaluated. Zn bioavailability was estimated with a trivariate model that included Zn homeostasis in the human intestine. As the rate of Zn fertiliz...

Cereal Chem. 85(l):82-91 This study measured the relationship between bread quality and 49 hard red spring (HRS) or 48 hard red winter (HRW) grain, flour, and dough quality characteristics. The estimated bread quality attributes included loaf volume, bake mix time, bake water absorption, and crumb grain score. The best-fit models for loaf volume, bake mix time, and water absorption had R2 value...

to identify important attributes/factors that contribute to grain and biological yields of wheat, 9912 sets of diverse data from field studies were extracted, and supervised attribute-weighting models were employed. results showed that when biological yield was the output, grain yield, nitrogen applied, rainfall, irrigation regime, and organic content were the most important factors/attributes,...

an experiment was conducted to study wheat grain protein increasing through foliar application of nitrogen afterflowering. the rcbd design was analysed with three replications and four n-treatments as foliar application as(n0=0, n1=4kg.ha-1 urea, n2=8kg.ha-1 urea, n3=4kg.ha-1 ammonium sulfate). results showed that seed proteincontent increased significantly by foliar application of nitrogen. da...

Nitrogen (N) application management needs to be refined for low yielding environments under dryland conditions. This 3-yr study examined nitrogen fertilization management effects on corn (Zea mays L.) plant characteristics and grain yield in rain fed environment under conventional tillage system. Nitrogen fertilization management consisted of two timing methods of N application [all N at planti...

abstractbackground and objectives: all changes in the development stages of plants results in the change of one or more yield components and finally, the ultimate yield and manipulation of these periods means to create new possibilities for increasing yield. accordingly, planting date has a significant impact on plant growth and development during the growth season, so that any shift in plantin...
