in order to compare morphophysiological traits between new and old cultivars of barley (hordeum vulgare l.) a greenhouse experiment was conducted in greenhouse condition in faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad in spring and summer 2011.the type of experiment was a completely randomized design with eight treatments (nosrat , youssof , fagr30 , nick) and four old cultivars inclu...

Food security is chronically guaranteed in Egypt because of the food subsidy policy of the country. However, the increasing Egyptian population is straining the food supply. To study changes in Egyptian food security and future food supply capacity, we analysed the historical grain production, yield per unit, grain-cultivated area, and per capita grain possession of Egypt. The GM (1,1) model of...

to determine the correlation between grain yield and its components in some grain corn hybrids and their cause and effect relationships in various fertilizer application methods, an experiment was carried out as split plot based on randomized complete block design with two fertilizer application methods (urea foliar application and soil application method), four grain corn hybrids (ns 640, kons...

to compare the yield and yield components of 10 promising dryland barley genotypes with a conventional cultivar (reihan03), a field experiment was conducted based on a randomized complete block design in miyaneh region in the 2010-2011 growing season, and their agronomic and morphological traits were recorded. genotypes were significantly different in terms of all the studied traits, and genoty...

In this paper we propose a new approach to coordinate multiple machines in the grain harvesting process, based on meta-constraint reasoning. This way we obtain more flexible plans that can be adapted at execution time. As an example scenario we focus on silage maize harvesting. We argue that more sophisticated flexible planning mechanisms are needed in order to obtain flexible plans that can be...

in order to effects of sulfur and manure on grain yield, yield components, and some physiological traits of corn hybrid ksc 704 in calcareous soils of kermanshah province, a factorial experiment was carried out based on a randomized complete block design with three replications. sulfur fertilizer in four levels 0, 250, 500 and 750 kg ha-1 and manure in four levels 0, 4, 8 and 12 t ha-1 were app...

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-...

this experiment was conducted to investigate and evaluate the phenotypic and genotypic diversity of a population including of 94 doubled-haploids lines, their parents and five iranian local bread wheat (triticum aestivum l.) cultivars. thirteen agronomic and morphologic traits were recorded including; grain yield per unit area, harvest index, spike length, seed number per spike, spikelet densit...
