to study the effect of water deficit and plant density on yield and yield components of cumin (cuminum cyminum), an experiment was conducted during the 2002 - 2003 growing season at research farm of zabol university. in this study, the effects of plant density (25, 50, 100, 150, and 200 plants per m²) and water stress (before flowering, flowering, seed filling and seed hardening vs adequate irr...

Genetic improvement in sorghum breeding programs requires the assessment of adaptation traits in small-plot breeding trials across multiple environments. Many of these phenotypic assessments are made by manual measurement or visual scoring, both of which are time consuming and expensive. This limits trial size and the potential for genetic gain. In addition, these methods are typically restrict...

Field experiment was carried out with five selected mustard cultivars during November 2007 to February 2008 under old alluvial soil in the Crop Research and seed Multiplication Farm of Burdwan University, Burdwan, West Bengal, India in randomized block design replicated thrice. Various growth parameters viz., length of shoot and root, number of primary branches per plant, length of siliquae, di...

in order to investigate the effect of sodium nitroprusside (snp) application on yield and yield components of kidney bean under water deficit stress, a field experiment was conducted in split-factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replications in hamedan, in 2012. water deficit stress at four levels including vegetative stress, reproductive stress vegetative+reproductive...

drought stress is one of the most important problems of agriculture and an important factor of plant product reduction. application of absorbent materials can help usage of sporadic rain fall and cause more maintenance of water storage. in order to study the effect of super absorbent polymer, potassium sulfate and manure under drought condition and favorable irrigation on some traits of foxtail...

Abstract The objective of this work was to select sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) genotypes with leaves potential be used for human consumption. Twenty-six experimental and four commercial cultivars were tested in a randomized complete block design three replicates ten plants per plot. trial carried out the municipality Lavras, state Minas Gerais, Brazil. Leaf shape lobe, aerial-part yield, edib...
