Understanding variation in SW (seed weigh) is of major importance in understanding SY (seed yield) variation. The objective of this study was to determine factors such as SN (seed number) per unit area, SFD (seed filling duration) and SFR (seed filling rate) and temperature, LAI (leaf area index), LAD (leaf area duration), above-ground dry matter, CGR (crop growth rate), leaf dry matter re...

to determine the effect of n-fertilizer on nitrogen harvest index (nhi), crop production and growth indices of corn (s.c.704 cultivar), an experiment was conducted with five nitrogen rates (100, 140, 180, 220 and 260 kg n/ha) in a randomly complete block design in four replicates. the effect of n-fertilizer rates on variation of grain yield, number of kernels, 1000-kernel weight, nitrogen harve...

To evaluate the effect of nitrogen fertilizer amounts on grain yield of forage corn in 2012, a pilot was implemented in Islamic Azad University Agricultural Research Station, Isfahan, as a split plot in a randomized complete block design. Main plots consisted of four levels: control (no fertilization ) , 50 , 100 and 150 kg per ha nitrogen from urea source and subplots , including several varie...

Background & Aim: Milk thistle [Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn] is an annual or biennial plant, native to the Mediterranean area, which has spread in north and south of Iran. A fruit of milk thistle contains a relatively high amount (approx. 20%) of oil, which exhibits wound-healing, anti-burn, and hepatoprotective properties. Experimental: In this research, a pot experiment wa...

line no. 4 was selected from local champ a rice of lord egan, based on pure line selection method, during 1992 to 1995. the mean yield of this line was 6342 and 6829 kgha-l in two regions of lord egan in 1996 to 1997. the yield of this line was 700-1500 kgha-l more than that of lord egan local rice. line 4 is more early maturing than the local rice with better marketability and quality. amylase...
