Characterization of genetic variability in a population is pertinent as genetic diversity within population and within species determines the extent of improvement achieved through crop improvement 8 methods. One hundred ninety six F recombinant inbred lines (RILs) of tef, developed by single-seed descent method from a cross between two tef varieties DZ-01-196 and DZ-01-2356, were evaluated to ...

in order to evaluate the yield and yield components of rice (oryza sativa l. cv. tarom hashemi) in integrated rice, duck and azolla, an experiment was conducted at the research farm of sari university of agricultural sciences and natural resources during 2012. experiment was arranged in split plot based on a randomized complete block design with three replications. the number of ducks as main p...

Sleeve and large field cage experiments were conducted in Stoneville, MS, in 2010 and 2011 to assess adult rice stink bug, Oebalus pugnax (F.), injury in rice. 'Cocodrie' and 'Wells' were infested at bloom, milk, and soft dough stages of panicle development. Twenty rice panicles were infested individually in the sleeve cage experiment as replicates with 0, 1, or 2 O. pugnax in a split-plot, com...

This study setout to investigate the effect of wheat residue, tillage, and nitrogen fertilizer management on some agronomic traits of soybean as a split split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications. The main plots included wheat residue management: collecting and leaving residue and sub plot included tillage (without tillage and conventional tillage), and the sub...

To evaluate the grain-filling pattern, Chinese first super hybrid rice, Liangyoupeijiu was grown under tillage and establishment methods at a spacing of 20 cm × 20 cm with one seedling hill-1 and at a seeding rate of 22.5 kg ha-1 in Changsha, Hunan Province, China in 2012. Our results showed that, superior grain weight in TP had always higher than DS up to 24 DAH but at 36 DAH, grain weight had...
