In this study, the effects of different pruning heights and number of branches left were evaluated to determine the most effective pruning height and optimum number of branches to be left after branch thinning to increase seed yield production of Jatropha curcas. The experiment, which was conducted at the MMSU Experimental Station from 2009-2011, was laid-out in Split plot design and was replic...

to investigate the relationship between different traits, discover factors affecting this relationship and to identify components of seed yield in cultivated and wild safflower genotypes, this investigation was conducted at isfahan university of technology research farm under two different water regimes during 2008. significant differences were observed between genotypes belonged to the two spe...

a trial study was carried out to assess the influence of the plant residue management in conjuction with application of different nitrogen sources on wheat yield and components, at the agricultural faculty of shahidchamran university of ahvaz during 2011-2012.the experimental design was splitplot at randomized completed block design arrangement. the main plot were different wheat residue manage...

the responses of isabgol (plantago ovata forsk.) to micronutrient foliar application under low irrigation condition were investigated. the experiment was carried out in agricultural research farm of zabol university, iran, during growing season of 2007-2008. the experiment was conducted in spilt plot using randomized complete block design with four replications. three irrigation regimes defined...

A study of the after-ripening of ‘egusi’ melon [Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsun and Nakai] fruits was undertaken at the Teaching and Research farm of the University of Agriculture Makurdi in the wet and dry season productions of 2005 and 2007. The aim was to monitor its effects on seed quality. Fruits were harvested at two leaf colour stages [i.e. when leaves started turning yellow (LTY), and...

The present study aims to assess the effect of Thiobacillus and sulfur on morphological and biochemical properties of medicinal pumpkinproperties under deficit irrigation based on a split-plot design. For this purpose, water stress was applied as a main factor in three levels (control, no irrigation in flowering stage, no irrigation in fruiting), and Thiobacillus and sulfur fertilizers as sub-p...

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...
