this experiment was conducted for estimating the effect of row spacing and plant density on soil moisture change, wheat yield and water use efficiency in rainfed condition, using a three replicated randomized complete block design with factorial arrangement at gorgan university of agricultural sciences and natural resources farm in anbare-ololum region in 2008-2009. the treatments that used wer...

In order to evaluate the effects of foliar application of micronutrients (iron and zinc) and different harvesting times during seed filling on yield and mucilage percentage of psyllium (Plantago psyllium), a field experiment was carried out in 2009 at the Research Farm of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran. The experiment was arranged as split plot based on randomize...

A field study was conducted at Sardarkrushinagar in North Gujarat during crop season kharif 2012 to know the existence of genotype x environment interaction and stability for yield and yield attributes in three different environments. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design replicated thrice. Stability parameters that are useful tools for identification of genotypes wi...

Rice is one the newly introduced crop in western Ethiopia (Assosa). However, yield far below its genetic potential. Lack of proper management practice on seed rates and row spacing are problems limiting. Field experiment was conducted to investigate effect rate traits lowland rice The treatment consisted seven levels (40, 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, 160 kg ha-1) four (15, 20, 25, 30cm). l...

chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) is mainly cultivated in arid and semi-arid agricultural systems. drought stress is a major factor delimiting maximum yield. this research evaluated the effects of drought stress treatments on expression of cu/znsod as a gene involving in drought tolerance by real time pcr technique. to find the probable relationship between the molecular and physiological effects o...

One of the crucial elements for livestock and human nutrition is selenium and its deficiency or toxicity can harm human and livestock health. The present study is designed with the aim of studying the effect of different levels of selenium fertilizer (Selcote-Ultra) and cow manure on the uptake of selenium in tall fescue. For this purpose, a pot experiment with complete randomized block design ...

to evaluate the most suitable method as well as different conditions of blanching in the process of green tea production from local tea green leaves, this research was conducted in split plot in time and on the basis of a randomized complete block design of six treatments in 3 replications (different plucking times). two common methods of blanching by steaming and panning were used. green leaf ...

rhizoctonia solani is the most serious problem on sugar beet beta vulgaris l. grown in north dakota and minnesota. picoxystrobin, a quinone outside inhibitor, and penthiopyrad, a succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor, were used alone and in combinations for controlling r. solani ag 2-2 iiib on sugar beet under greenhouse conditions of 22 ± 2 °c and a 12-h photoperiod. fungicides were applied in-fur...
