The present study was undertaken to evaluate direct and indirect selection criteria for the improvement of grain yield and quality components in Chenopodium quinoa Willd. Correlated response (CR) and relative selection efficiency (RSE) were estimated for grain yield and three quality components, grain protein, grain carotenoid and leaf carotenoid based on different contributing ...

in order to investigate the effects of foliar application with plant growth promoters on morphological characteristics of maize (single-cross 704), an experiment with three replications and sixteen treatments conducted with priming and spraying of growth promoters (organser, mas-raiz, dulzee and control)  as factorial based on complete randomized block design. analysis of variance showed that t...

Abstract Introduction We determined the association between frailty and 30-day mortality following total hip knee arthroplasty (THA/TKA) due to osteoarthritis also impact of THA/TKA on compared a control population. Method used linked primary secondary care data Office for National Statistics data. Frailty was assessed using electronic index categorised as fit, mild, moderate, severe frailty. T...

This research set out to evaluate the effect of combined biological and chemical nitrogen fertilizers on some corn hybrids. To this end an experiment was conducted as split plot on the basis of randomized complete block design with four replications. Main plots were included: use of chemical and biological fertilizers in four levels: 100% chemical fertilizer, 75% chemical fertilizer + 100% bio-...

Plant allelopathy one ways where allelopathic plant inhibits its surrounding plants by releasing substances. present experiment was conducted at Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh during period July Decemb...

abstract             (co) variance components of milk, fat and protein yield of 11368 first lactation iranian holstein dairy cow were estimated by single trait random regression test-day models and restricted maximum likelihood (reml) method. in this study the homogeneous residual variance was assumed throughout lactation. estimated heritability for 305-day production traits ranged from 0.25 to...
