fennel (foeniculum vulgare mill.) benefits from a lot of useful medicinal properties. iran is known as one of the main producers of fennel. in spite of high medicinal values, fennel’s cultivation is not economically feasible, mainly due to its low yield. it grows wild in different areas in iran from where diverse ecotypes have evolved. genetic variance and heritability estimates of traits in a ...

this study was conducted during two years (2007-2009) in shawoor agricultural research station on a silty-clay soil. experiment conducted in split plots in a randomized complete blocks design in three replications. main plots were planting methods including centrifugal broadcaster (p1), centrifugal broadcaster + furrower (p2), seed drill (p3), seed drill + furrower (p4), three lines bed drillin...

glasswort(salicornia europaea l.) as an important halophyte plant is capable to accumulate nacl in aboveground part (fully edible) in considerable quantity. to evaluate the effect of irrigation levels and nitrogen fertilizer on the yield of seed and oil, and also harvest index of glasswort, a split plot experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications a...

Objective: Chamomile is one of the commercial medicinal plants produced in Ethiopia. Besides, it is priority crop in national aromatic and medicinal plants research project in the country. As chamomile production affected by production techniques this activity was conducted to identify the effect of seed storage duration and seedling raising methods on its seedling establishmen...

Fenugreek is being developed as a forage legume crop in western Canada, as it has desirable agronomic and forage quality traits. The objective of the present study was to determine if genotype x environment interactions have an impact on seed and forage yield when plants are grown under the short growing season of western Canada. Two studies were conducted: one with up to 83 accessions grown un...

identification of morphological, phenological and yield characteristics of genotypes is important in order to collect necessary information for available varieties and as a result selection of one or more specific traits. in this study, 73 kabuli chickpea genotypes from pulses seed bank of research center for plant sciences, ferdowsi university of mashhad, were planted in irrigated conditions a...

to study combining ability and genetic parameters of seed yield trait in rapeseed, eight lines of rapeseed were evaluated by a design of half diallel cross. seeds of f1 generation and their parents were grown in a 6 × 6 simple lattice design with two replications. according to the analysis of variance, general combining ability (gca), specific combining ability (sca) and mean squares of genotyp...
