In order to study the contamination of Aspergillus flavus and aflatoxin production in pistachio cultivars in the Semnan province, eight cultivars of pistachio were collected from major pistachio growing areas. Using the serial dilution method, ground pistachio kernels were inoculated on plates containing AFPA medium and incubated at 28° C. This experiment was performed using three replications ...

The effect of different concentrations of hexavalent Cr on growth and biochemical parameters of two T. aestivum cultivars (Punjab-11 and Sehar-06) was investigated. No significant inhibition of seed germination was observed in both the cultivars at all the tested concentrations (P ˃ 0.05). A significant decrease in root length for both the cultivars was observed at all the Cr concentrations as ...

sunflower is one of the most important edible oil that growth of annual crops, it is grown over a widely area and is considered a crop adapted to an every environmental conditions, in order to study growth analysis of sunflower under sowing date and cultivars in dry condition a farm experiment was conducted a split plot arranged in a complete randomized block design with three replications in t...

ten gerbera cultivars (‘labinel’, ‘lilla’, ‘alp’, ‘alberino’, ‘bonnie’, ‘avemaria’, ‘mammut’, ‘lexus’, ‘‘terramixa ’ & ‘sarolta’) were evaluated for their growth, yield and quality characteristics under protected conditions during 2011. among the cultivars studied, there were highly significant variations observed for growth, yield and quality parameters. longest stalk length (60.3 cm) was ...

Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) is an economically important plant, valued all over the world. The existing variation among 16 promising cultivars as observed through differential rhizome yield (181.9 to 477.3 g) was proved to have a genetic basis using different genetic markers such as karyotype, 4C nuclear DNA content and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD). The karyotypic analysis re...

in order to study of yield, yield component, plant height, total dry matter and radiation use efficiency with 13 spring varieties of rapeseed ,an experiment was carried out in 2007 growing season at agriculture and natural resources research station of torogh,mashhad. these cultivars were from three rapeseed species belonged to brassica napus, brassica rapa and brassica juncea. experimental des...

in order to study the biological fixation efficiency of different strains of symbiosis bacteria in three varieties of common bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design was conducted in zanjan province during 2006 and 2007. in this investigation three strains of rizobium including: rb117 (extracted from the zanjan soils), rb123 (extracted from t...
