Flowering plants have developed many ways to arrange their flowers. A flower-bearing branch or system of branches is called an inflorescence. The number of flowers that an inflorescence contains ranges from a single flower to endless flower-clusters. Over the past centuries, botanists have classified inflorescences based on their morphology, which has led to an unfortunate maze of complex botan...

abstract in order to investigate the effect of biofertilizer, chemical fertilizer and plant density on yield and corm criteria of saffron, an experiment was conducted as complete randomized block design in a factorial arrangement with three replications under field condition in agricultural college, ferdowsi university of mashhad during 3 years of 2007,2008,2009. treatments included nitroxin bi...

Limitations on pollen and resources may significantly affect plant reproduction in fragmented habitats. In this study, phenology and pollinator frequency and activity were investigated to estimate the role of pollinators in Zygophyllum xanthoxylum reproduction, and this species is ecologically important in northwest China. In addition, the relative impact of restrictive amounts of pollen and re...

this study was done to evaluate the effect of different planting arrangements (square, lozenge and rectangular) and various concentrations of potassium sulfate (k2so4) fertilizer (0, 100, 200 and 300 kg/ha) on yield and essential oils quantitative of calendula officinalis l., a medicinal and ornamental plant. the experiment was done as a factorial in randomized completely blocks design (r.c.b.d...

the effects of plant densities (25, 35 and 45 plants m-2 as d1, d2 and d3 respectively), and inoculation with rhizobium bacteria (without rhizobium, with rhizobium and rhizobium + microelement application), on growth and yield were studied in chickpea (cicer arietinum l.). experiment was carried out in 2008 at research farm of the faculty of agriculture of university of mohaghegh ardabil, a fac...

this research was investigated to study relationship among seed yield, seed yield components and morphological traits and their direct and indirect effects on seed yield of 100 safflower genotypes in two water environments (normal and drought stress) at research farm of isfahan university of technology during 2012. seed yield had positive correlation with number of head per plant, seed per head...

The effects of various growing substrates, combinations of soil, silt, sand, press mud (PM) and rice hulls (RH) on plant growth, yield and quality of rose (Rosa hybrida L.) cvs. Kardinal, Anjlique and Gold Medal, were studied to standardize substrates for cut rose production and develop better management and quality production protocol. Plant height, number of leaves branch, leaf area, number o...

This investigation was undertaken to study the effect of boron on flower and fruit setting and yield of ratoon crop of brinjal (Solanum melongina L) in the Eastern Region of Sri Lanka. The treatments were arranged in a Randomized Complete Design (RCBD) replicated three times. The treatments were defined as follows: T1-50 ppm, T2-100 ppm; T3-150 ppm and T4Control along with recommended fertilize...
