to compare the quantity and quality of forge production in intercropping systems with maize, pinto bean and pumpkin, an experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at faculty of agricultural science, university of guilan, during 2012 growing season. the treatments consisted of maize, pinto bean and naked pumpkin sole cropping, maize – pinto bean an...

Tempeh products made from soybeans and from combinations of soybeans with ground-nuts and sunflower seed at ratios of 52:48 and 46:54 respectively were tested for their appearance, texture, aroma, flavour, and over-all acceptability. In addition, tempeh was prepared with and without the addition of bakla (Vicia faba) to soybeans in various ratios to obtain a tempeh of acceptable quality and nut...

Edamame are soybeans harvested at a physiologically immature (R6) stage as a specialty food item for fresh and processed (frozen) markets. The soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura, is a newly introduced insect pest of soybeans in North America. This field study was to provide baseline information on the impact of A. glycines on the edamame soybean. This study determined the in 2005 did not e...

in order to evaluation the different sowing date and different harvest time in intercropping of maize and legume plants on maize forage quality, a randomized complete block with three replications conducted in research field of university of sari agricultural sciences and natural resources in 2011. treatments were included three legume plants (soybean, fenugreek and cowpea) at two sowing time (...

The inclusion of isolated soy protein in milk replacer diets for calves and neonatal pigs inhibits development of intestinal mucosal cells. Simultaneous administration of putrescine partially overcomes this effect. We therefore conducted experiments to determine the potential for dietary putrescine to overcome the toxicity of raw soybeans in chicks. In the first experiment, week-old chicks were...

in order to study the sowing system, row distance and weeding effect on yield and yield components of intercropped maize with peanut, this experiment was conducted, as factorial based on a rcbd with three replications at the research farm of agriculture center of zabol university (iran) during growing season 2011- 2012. sowing system were four levels including sole maize, sole peanut, 50% maize...

Maize (Zea mays L.) is a host to numerous pathogenic species that impose serious diseases to its ear and foliage, negatively affecting the yield and the quality of the maize crop. A considerable amount of research has been carried out to elucidate mechanisms of maize-pathogen interactions with a major goal to identify defense-associated proteins. In this review, we summarize interactions of mai...
