African yam bean (Sphenostylis stenocarpa) is an underexploited legume with the potential of becoming an alternative food staple to alleviate the problem of food security. An assessment was carried out on the growth and yield of AYB affected by Telfairia mosaic virus (TeMV) Infection. Telfairia mosaic virus caused severe mosaic, leaf distortion and malformation on AYB. Analyses of results revea...

 Place Duration Study: Twenty augmented from Indian Institute Vegetable Research, Varanasi were s...

the current experiment was carried out to evaluate qualitative and quantitativeof three melons (cucumis melo gp. ameri) accssions named zardjalal, ananasi and khanoti. the experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with 16 treatments and three replications at research field of jahad-e-daneshgahi, campus of agriculture and natural resources, university of tehran. five ...

abstract rosa damascena has attracted considerable attention in horticulture, biochemistry and in pharmacology because of the fragrance of the flowers and the high content of its bio-logically active substances. there is limited information available on factors controlling flower yield and its components. the present study reports an investigation on flower yield and the various factors affect...

in order to study the correlation between morphophenological and quantitative traits with yield and to determine the most important traits for yield, 600 ecotypes of mung bean were evaluated in normal and limited irrigation conditions through augmented design. computation of correlation coefficients showed that in two conditions, number of pods per plant, harvest index and biological yield had ...

The effect of pre and post-anthesis shading (20% of incident radiation) on pericarp development, cotyledon cell number and seed growth dynamic of fruits from three positions in the capitulum (peripheral, mid and central) of two sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) genotypes were studied at two locations. Both shading treatments reduced pericarp weight, fruit volume and total yield per plant. Plants...
