Increasing demand for vegetable oil and protein requires breeding efforts to enhance the yield of oilseed rape. This can be achieved by reducing seed cellulose, hemicellulose lignin content. The objective study was analyse important agronomic traits two distinct bulks genotypes from crosses, with low (6%) high content (10%). genotype were formed mixing seeds 12 doubled haploid lines either or s...

Abstract During drying and storage, trema seeds undergo a process of seed deterioration. Seed deterioration is decrease in the quality viability which can cause overall changes seed, both physiologically chemically. The aim this research was to analyze impact time storage technique on physiological chemical, get best (optimum) for seeds. experimental design used completely randomized with 2 fac...

Information on the economic characters was derived from ninety-two varieties of soybean. Analysis of variance was carried out for the data recorded on plant height, nodes plant, branches plant, 100-seed weight, days to 50 % flowering, days to maturity, grain yield, oil and protein content. Results revealed highly significant differences among varieties for all the characters. High heritability ...

The present study aimed to compare the nutritional and biochemical composition of Indian legume seed (white and black seeds of Velvet beans) flour used by tribals of South India. The crude protein content was higher in white seed compared to black seed; but the nutritive values of black seeds were better compared to the white seeds. The mineral constituents of both seed flour was found to be hi...

Seed corn (Zea mays L.) producers in the Midwest region of the United States are affected by an early fall frost approximately every five years. The negative effects of frost on seed quality vary according to genotype and thus possibly seed composition. Our objective was to determine the effect of seed composition (oil and protein) and seed maturity on seed viability and vigor of artificially f...

at the research farm of vali-e-asr university of rafsanjan in 2013. the experiment was arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replications and four irrigation intervals. irrigation was done after 40 (control), 60, 80 and 100 mm evaporation from pan class a, from seedling establishment till physiological maturity. results showed that irrigation level did not significantly chang...

time of acquisition desiccation tolerance in peanut seed during different growing stages was determined by evaluating seed moisture content, germination capability and electrical conductivity. it was done in research field of gorgan university of agricultural sciences and natural resources in completely block randomize design in four planting date and four replications. sampling was done weakly...
