In the Sahel zone of West Africa that extends from Senegal to Chad, temperatures can vary from less than 15 ̋C to 25 ̋C from November to February. These low temperatures affect the growth, development and yield of rice plants, and therefore constitute a major constraint to rice production in the Sahel. In order to identify rice varieties tolerant to cold stress at different developmental stages...

in order to evaluate the influence of different sowing dates on quantitative and qualitative yield in four winter rapeseed cultivars (brassica napus l.), two field experiments were carried out as split plot arrangement in complete block design with four replications. this research was performed in agricultural experimental station of agricultural and natural resources research center of markazi...

castor oil due to extraordinary physicochemical properties has numerous applications in pharmaceutical, chemical, hygienic, biodiesel and nowadays in food industries. during plant growth and development, as well as during postharvest and processing, different factors may affect caster oil properties. this study was conducted to evaluate oil content and physiochemical properties under different ...

in order to evaluate the effect of sugar beet sowing date, planting density and cultivar on solar radiation interception, a study was conducted in kamal-abad agricultural research station of sugar beet seed institute (sbsi) in 2005 and 2006. the experimental design was split-split plots based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications with two sowing dates as the main pl...
