the trial randomized complete block design with four replications in summer 1394 in a farm located in the share ray to study the effects of different methods of weed control on the yield and quality of forage maize varieties (sc.704) was performed. the experiment consisted of black plastic mulch, black plastic mulch silver, vetch cover crop with a density of 100 per cent, with 50 per cent vetch...

exiting diversity is the basis of selection in plant breeding programs. diversity in morphological traits is studied by different methods of multivariate analysis. this study was conducted to estimate the genetical diversity of new corn hybrids based on the morphological traits. in this study, 40 new grain and forage corn hybrids with five commercial varieties as control treatments were planted...

Salinity stress is a brutal environmental stress which decreases the yield production of plants. Questions rise on which of the ionic stress or lack of water has deleterious effects on plants forage dry yield. Also, questions remain on whether the K+ reduction or Na+ accumulation is more important in forage dry yield reduction under salinity stress. The present experiment was conducted to answe...

the chemical and fermentative parameters of three fresh forages and silages of sorghum including sweet, pegah and speedfeed varieties were compared with corn using in vitro method, also degradability coefficients of forages and silages were determined by in situ method. forages were planted in the same condition and harvested in soft dough stage, then ensilaged in four replicates for each time ...

the effect of full irrigation (fi), partial root-zone drying at two levels (receiving 75 percent of et (prd75), 55 percent of et (prd55)) and deficit irrigation treatments at the same levels (75 percent (di75) and 55 percent (di55)) under drip irrigation on nitrogen uptake and leaching in a maize field in sari agricultural sciences and natural resources university were carried out during years ...
