This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of four levels of irrigation (irrigation of plants after I1 = 40, I2 =60, I3 = 80 , and I4 = 100mm of evaporation from class A pan) and four plant densities(D1 = 30, D2 = 40, D3 = 50 and D4 = 60 plants/m2) on the seed yield and seed quality in three soybean cultivars(V1=Hobit, V2=Williams and V3=Hill) in a split factorial design, based on the com...

The objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of salicylic acid and gibberellic acid on germination characteristics and changes of proline, protein and catalase activity of Brassica napus seedlings under Cu(SO4) stress. The experimental design was factorial with complete randomized design as a base design with 3 replications. The first factor was 4 levels of Cu(SO4) stress (0, 10, 2...

Extended Abstract Introduction: Pulses are among the best sources of plant protein and important components of crop rotation, which in recent years, have been considered one of the major options for plant research. Seed storage is one of the important traits in legume breeding. Storage temperature, seed moisture content, and storage duration are the most important factors affecting seed qualit...

  This experiment was conducted to determine nitrogen fractions and ruminal dry matter and protein degradability of raw or heated (roasted or extruded) soybean seed. Samples were incubated for 2, 4, 8, 16, 24 and 48 h in the rumen of 4 cannulated Kurdish male lambs (50 ± 3 kg BW) . N itrogen fractions of samples were measured by chemical methods. Results showed that extruding decreased non-prot...
