In order to study the effects of different levels of nitrogen fertilizer and plant density on grain yield and its components in sunflower, an experiment was conducted using 'Record' cultivar at the Research Farm of College of Agriculture, Isfahan University of Technology in 1996. Four levels of nitrogen (0, 75, 150 and 225 kg/ha) and four plant densities (65000, 75000, 85000 and 95000 plants/ha...

Limited time for crop residue decomposition and complete seedbed preparation in double-cropping necessitates reduced tillage which is associated with its shortcomings. Information about seedbed preparation aspects in double-cropping of wheat and mungbean in Isfahan is lacking. For this reason, the effects of various seedbed preparation methods on growth, seed yield and yield components of mungb...

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of thirteen fertilizer treatments (as main factor) on agronomic traits of two local cultivars (as sub factors) of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.), "Mobarakeh" and "Ardestan" in Isfahan by using a randomized complete block design with three replications. The results showed that applying fertilizer treatments of N, P, K, Fe, Zn and Mn had no signifi...

    Present study aimed to assess the relationship between grain yield and its components in 116 rice genotypes in F₂ generations obtained from crosses between Tarom-Jelodar and 229R cultivars. Correlation analysis showed that the number of panicle per plant (0.758), the number of filled grains per panicle (0.604), the 100 grains weight (0.401) and grain width (0.234) had significant positive r...

Edible-oil flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) can be an alternate oil-seed crop in Isfahan region. Seeding date is very important in obtaining higher grain yields and a successful flax production. The present study was conducted at the research farm, Isfahan University of Technology in the year 2000 to determine the effect of seeding date and genotype on yield, yield components and maturity of edibl...

  To evaluate the effect of plant density on yield and quantitative characteristics of two greenhouse cucumber cultivars, this experiment was planned as factorial, based on completely randomized blocks design with three replications, during two years in the greenhouse of Jiroft Agricultural Research Center, Jiroft, Iran. The experimental factors were width of planting strip (15, 30 and 45 cm), ...

Soybean is the promising oilseed in the face of protein and oil shortage. In this study 16 advanced soybean genotypes, in terms of seed yield and yield components were evaluated using multivariate statistical methods. This experiment was carried out in the form of randomized complete block design (RCBD) in the research farm of Ardabil Agricultural and Natural Resources Research Center (Moghan...
