Changes in the carbohydrate (glucose, trehalose, and glycogen) and total protein contents of eggs retained within Heterodera glycines cysts were monitored monthly in a field microplot experiment conducted from March 1993 to March 1995. Treatments included two near-isogenic lines of soybean cv. Clark differing for date of maturity, and one corn hybrid. The soybean lines were planted in microplot...

Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) is used as medicinal plant in many Asian countries and has been reported to have forage quality similar to alfalfa. Fenugreek is an annual crop and may have the potential to diversify forage production systems in the central High Plains. This study evaluated forage dry matter (DM) production and the nutritive value of three fenugreek cultivars as influen...

in this research, the statistics of daily temperature of meteorology stations for estimating the probable occurrence of the first and last frost temperature, the phonological thresholds of saffron and its flowering and irrigation dates were explored. furthermore, by applying different methods, the probabilities of the attained dates in different probability levels were fit in smada software. th...

the crop simulation models are heuristic tools in order to determine optimal of management strategies and analyzing yield stability in agroecosystems. the objective of this study was to evaluate cropsyst model ability for simulating of development, growth and yield of wheat cultivars from golestan province in response to planting date. the results of model evaluation were acceptable so that, th...

in order to evaluate the delay cropping on yield and yield component of two canola cultivars and selecting the best genotype and row spacing, an experiment was conducted at three years (2007, 2008 and 2009) in gorgan research station. this experiment was arranged in spilt-factorial based on randomized complete block design with four sowing dates (28 oct., 12 and 28 nov. and 12 dec.) as main plo...

abstract sunflower is one of the most important oilseeds in the world which has adaptation to high temperature. however, its cultivation in many different areas is neither desirable nor economical. considering that sunflower is a crop that is irrigated by adequate river water in the province of isfahan, temperature is a determining role in the final revenue. appropriate temperatures are shown a...
