The research work comprising genetic studies for oil, fatty acid profile, seed cotton yield and lint percentage in eight parental lines (SLH-284, CIM-446, CIM-473, CIM-496, CIM-499, CIM-506, CIM-554, CIM-707) and their F3 populations was carried out during 2011 and 2012 at The University of Agriculture, Peshawar and Nuclear Institute for Food and Agriculture, Peshawar Pakistan. The genetic pote...

in order to evaluate effect of azotobacter chroococcum strains on yield, yield components and qualitative indices of winter rapeseed (brassica napus l.), an experiment was conducted during 2009-2010 growing season at research institute of rice in rasht. the experimental design was completely randomized block, with three replications. investigated treatments were including control (without seed ...

This study was conducted at the Agricultural Research Station, King Abdulaziz University at Hada El-Sham during 2007 and 2008 seasons to improve the seed yield of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) in the Makkah Region, Saudi Arabia. Split plot design with four replications was used in this study. Main plot treatments were four nitrogen rates (0, 100, 150 and 200 kg N/ha) and the sub plot treatments w...

canola has industrial applications as well as edible usage. in regard to 15.8 kg oil per capita usage and vast oil importing, cultivation development of oil seeds is a major issue. this study was performed to determine the best sowing date and cultivars for canola as means of seed yield and oil percent improvement in dehloran region of elam province. 25 treatments were used in a split plot expe...

Present study demonstrated the preparation of MCM-41 as a support for the immobilization of Candida rugosa lipase by the physical adsorption technique. The lipase immobilized MCM-41 has been characterized by scanning electron microscopic and FTIR techniques. At pH 6, maximum lipase immobilization (250 mg/g) on MCM support has been observed and the immobilized lipase was employed as biocatalyst ...

A novel continuous subcritical n-butane extraction technique for Camellia seed oil was explored. The fatty acid composition, physicochemical properties, and benzo[a]pyrene content of Camellia seed oil extracted using this subcritical technique were analyzed. Orthogonal experiment design (L9(34)) was adopted to optimize extraction conditions. At a temperature of 45 °C, a pressure of 0.5 MPa, a t...

Rapeseed as one the most crops is the basic needs of human feeding in order to produce oil. A field experiment was conducted to study the effects of different tillage system, seeding method and rates on yield and its components, as well as, seed oil percentage of rapeseed (Brassica napus L. cv. Hyola-401) during 2011-12 growing season at Rice Research Institute of Iran-Department of Ma...
