in order to evaluate the impact of time of weed control on yield and yield components of two rapeseed cultivars (zarfam and opra) two separate experiments based on each cultivar conducted at shahryar (karaj). the experiment was carried out based on rcbd with three replications and six treatments for each cultivar. treatments were exerted on the different phenological growth stages including the...

The gibberellin content of pea seeds developing in excised pea pods cultured on a medium containing the plant growth retardant AMO-1618 was reduced in comparison with pea seeds cultured on retardant-free medium. The reduction increased with increasing concentrations of AMO-1618. However, at the lowest concentration tested (5 milligrams per liter) the growth of the seeds was not affected whereas...

introduction water availability is an important factor affecting plant growth and yield, mainly in arid and semi-arid regions, where plants are often subjected to periods of drought. the occurrence of morphological and physiological responses, which can lead to some adaptation to drought stress, may vary considerably among species. in arid and semi-arid areas that are subjected to more irregula...

an experiment was conducted at assossa agricultural research center (aarc) station during 2008 cropping season in order to study the effects of co-inoculation of bradyrhizobium japonicum (tal-378 and tal-379) and phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (psb) (pseudomonas spp.), and conventional farmers’ fertilizer level (combined and individual application of 46n kg ha-1 and 46 p2o5 kg ha-1) on nodulat...

Heat-related traits in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) play a crucial role reducing the harmful effect of heat stress, as increase stress is predicted to occur coming years due global warming result climate change. The advantage multiple pods per peduncle and compound (imparipinnate) leaf kabuli has not been properly revealed under conditions. We, therefore, want (i) provide insight into over sin...

in order to evaluate a better sowing date of chickpea cultivars in dry land conditions, a factorial experiment in randomized complete block design with four replications was carried out at research station of bahar (hamadan province) during 2005-2006 cropping season. two planting time included winter and spring and four chickpea cultivars (cvs.) including one local (check) and three improved cv...

this research was carried out at the research farm, faculty of agriculture, bu-ali sina university in growing season of 2011-2012. the aim of research was to evaluate the effect of foliar application of nano-iron chelate and bacterization of mesorhizobium bacteria on root nodulation, growth, grain yield and yield components of chickpea under rainfed conditions. a randomized complete block desig...

Drought stress is the major limitation of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) grown in subsistence farming systems worldwide. The objective of this study was to use single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers from the BARCBean6K_3 Beadchip to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with traits related to drought tolerance in common bean. An intergene pool recombinant inbred line (RIL...
