in order to study of genetic variation and identification of yield components in chickpea, a trial consists of 96 accessions of chickpea received from iranian gen bank (seed and plant improvement institute) along with five checks (arman, bivanij, jam, hashem and ilc-482) was conducted based on an augmented design in 2005-06 cropping season at research farm of agricultural college, razi universi...

in order to study the effect of different redroot pigweed (amaranthus retroflexus) density on yield, yield components of soybean cultivar and determining competitive cultivar, a field experiment was carried out at mazandaran agricultural research station 2006. experiment was set up at a randomized complete block design with five rates of pigweed (0, 4, 8, 12 and 16 plant per square meter) and t...

This research was made during the 2011 and 2012 growing periods in the trial filed of "Research Station for Management of Soil Water and Desertification" according to “Randomized Blocks Design” with 3 replications. Research material was the following chickpea genotype; CA119, CA128, CA149, CA150, CA222, CA250, CA254 and other 2 commercial varieties named as Gökçe and Yaşa. Some agronomical char...

The perianth persists after flowering in many plants, yet its post-floral functionality has been little investigated, and the few studies available provide ambiguous evidence. This paper tests the hypothesis that the green persistent sepals of the perennial herb, Helleborus foetidus, contribute to the plant's fitness by enhancing seed number and/or size. Post-floral contribution of the calyx to...

background and objectives: milk thistle (silybum marianum), a medicinal plant of the asteraceae family that have been used long time ago, in the treatment of liver disease. sowing date of this plant has not been determined, therefore, this study was necessary. this plant was identified as a weed, this plant is identified as a weed, while silymarin in the seeds are used in the anti-hepatitis and...

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...

to study the effects of planting date and planting density on quantitative traits of medicinal plant, schneider squash (cucurbita pepo l.), an experiment was conducted at research field of ferdowsi university of mashhad, in year 2012. a split plot arrangement based on randomized complete block design with three replications was used. treatments consisted of three planting date levels (1 may, 11...
