In order to investigate the effects of drought stress on grain yield and its components, a study was carried out (2011) as split plots in randomized complete blocks design in Isfahan (32° 40'  N,51° 48' E). Main factor was drought stress in four levels including irrigation after 80, 100, 120, and 140 mm evaporation from evaporation pan (class A) and subplots were three cultivars (Sirena, Record...

in order to evaluate the effects of drought stress and planting method on yield and yield components of two chickpea cultivars (cicer arietinum l.), an experiment was carried out at the research field of faculty of agriculture; shiraz university, using a split factorial randomized complete block design with four replications. the main factor was irrigation stop at different growth stages of chi...

determination of the response of differentcrop varieties to environmental variables from planting to harvest is one of the fundamental pillars of agriculture planning to achieve maximum yield and desirable quality. changing planting date by effect on vegetative and reproductive growth period and balance between them, will affect yield and product quality. in order to study the responses of four...

according to urgent need of corn to nitrogen and since this element play a main role in improving of yield corn, thus, in order to investigate the effect of different levels of urea on yield and yield components of corn 704, an experiment was conducted randomized block with three replications in cropping year of 2012. experimental treatments included six levels of urea (0, 30, 60, 90, 120 and 1...

Seedlings of three rice (Oryza sativa L.) varieties (one indica, ARC5955; and two japonica, Nipponbare and Koshihikari) with or without pre-colonization by the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Funneliformis mosseae were transplanted into an upland field and grown to maturity. Pre-colonization had no effect on the yield of Nipponbare or Koshihikari. However, pre-colonized ARC5955 exhibited a strong...

an experiment was conducted as a split – split plot in form of a randomized block design with four replications in cilakhor region of iran in 2004. the main factor was the seed planting date with three levels (5, 12 and 25 april), sub factor was the crop density with two levels (160,000 and 250,000 pl/ha) and sub-sub factor was the crop arrangement with two levels (equidistant and non-equidista...

The reconciliation of economy and environment is a key factor in achieving sustainability.The European Union wishes to achieve the sustainability of its agriculture in order to producehigh quality food materials and to manage energy crisis and the risks related to climate andmarket fluctuations. These risks can be mitigated by reducing negative impacts of agriculturalactivities on the environme...
