kochia is a halophyte plant and is a good source of forage for livestock under saline irrigation. in order to investigate the salinity effect on morphological and forage characteristics of kochia, an experiment was conducted. three saline waters (5.2, 10.5 and 23.1 ds m-1) and three kochia ecotypes (birjand, borujerd and sabzevar) were allocated as main and sub plots, respectively, in a split p...

In this study, the effects of different pruning heights and number of branches left were evaluated to determine the most effective pruning height and optimum number of branches to be left after branch thinning to increase seed yield production of Jatropha curcas. The experiment, which was conducted at the MMSU Experimental Station from 2009-2011, was laid-out in Split plot design and was replic...

tomato (solanum lycopersicum l.) is one of the most important vegetable plants in the world. it originated in western south america, and domestication is thought to have occurred in central america. in order to study the effect of polyethylene sheet as mulch on water requirement and yield of tomato, an experiment was carried out as factorial layout based on a randomized complete block design wi...

Effects of biofertilizers and stacosorb polymer* on yield and yield components of fennel (Foeniculum vulgare Mill.) under drought stress were evaluated using a split-factorial experiment based on a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications at the agricultural research farm of Lorestan University, Khorramabad, Iran in 2013. The factors included drought condition (stressed a...

an experiment was conducted to determine the effect of five plants densities (100,200,300,400 and 500 grain m-2) on yield and its components in three rain fed barley cultivars (ezeh, mahor and dopar). a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted in agricultural research center of khorramabad city in the east of iran (in 2006-2007). in th...

in order to study the effect of different levels of nitrogen and sulfur fertilizers on yield, yield components, content of some elements, qualitative and quantitative traits of spring safflower (serin cv.) an experiment was conducted at agriculture and natural resource research station of ardabil in 2008. this experiment was carried out in factorial experiment in completely randomized block des...

The experimental material consisted seven mutagenic populations of chickpea in M3 and M4 generation, control (Avarodhi) and check variety Pusa 312. The experiment was conducted during rabi 2009-10 and 2010-11. On the basis of per se performance, six mutagenic populations were selected for high seed yield coupled with high harvest index and more number of pods per plant. None of the mutagenic po...
