in order to study the intercropping arrangements of coriander (coriandrum sativum l.) and fenugreek (trigonella foenum-graecum l.), a field experiment was conducted during growing season of 2010 at agriculture research station, college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran. a randomized complete block design with three replications was used. treatments included: mono-crop of fenu...

A two-year field experiment was carried out to investigate the effects of nitrogen, composted manure, municipal waste compost, and weeds on yield and photosynthetic characteristics of corn. Experimental design was split split plot factorial with 3 replications. Main plots were weedy and weed-free, sub plots were nitrogen fertilizer levels [0 (N0) and 200 (N200) kg N ha -1 as urea], and sub sub ...

BACKGROUND One of the important reasons behind termination of breast-feeding in the first six months after childbirth is insufficient production of breast milk. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine the effect of herbal tea containing fenugreek seed on the signs of breast milk sufficiency in Iranian girl infants aged 0 - 4 months, at the medical health centers of Tehran university...

(1) Background: Weed control decreases the competition for nutrients, but also potential of increased phosphorus (P) mobilization in soils caused by higher plant diversity. (2) Methods: Impacts weed species under maize on mycorrhizal colonization and plant-availability P were investigated two pot experiments. Plant traits tested weed-free mixed growth with six annual species. (3) Results: Growt...

fenugreek (trigonella  foenum graecum), native to southern europe and asia, is an annual herb with white flowers and hard, yellowish brown and angular seeds, known from ancient times, for nutritional value beside of its medicinal effects. fenugreek seeds are rich source of gum, fiber, alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins and volatile content. due to its high content of fiber, fenugreek could be used...

Field experiments were conducted during 2017 and 2018 to evaluate the efficacy of herbicides NICOSULFURON and EPTC alone or in combination with seed priming on weed control and corn yield. NICOSULFURON (80 g a.i. ha‒1) was applied at four- to six-leaf stage of corn as post-emergence and EPTC (4920 g a.i. ha‒1) applied as pre-plant incorporation (PPI). Among the herbicide treatments, the lowest ...

in order to investigate the effects of weeds interference on yield and yield components of different genotypes of common bean, an experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications at agricultural research station of tabriz university, in 2011. the main plots were eight genotypes of different types of common bean including red bean, (cv. gho...
