salinity of water and soil in arid and semi arid regions restricts the growth and yield of crops such as sesame. in order to evaluate yield and yield components of 43 lines and ecotypes of sesame (sesamum indicum l.) under saline condition (ec of irrigation water, 5.2 ds m-1) an experiment was carried out in randomize complete block design with three replications at salinity research station of...

in order to study of genetic variation and identification of yield components in chickpea, a trial consists of 96 accessions of chickpea received from iranian gen bank (seed and plant improvement institute) along with five checks (arman, bivanij, jam, hashem and ilc-482) was conducted based on an augmented design in 2005-06 cropping season at research farm of agricultural college, razi universi...

abstract cumin (cuminum cyminum) is one of the most important medicinal plants in iranian dry region. in order to study the effects of irrigation times and salinity stress on yield and yield components of cumin, an experiment was conducted at the research farm ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2009. factors including irrigation times (1: one time irrigation, 2: two times irrigation 3: three tim...

to study the yield and change the attributes associated with it, the field experiments were conducted at the gorgan university of agricultural sciences research farm, gorgan, iran in the growing seasons of 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 under well-watered conditions. the 16 cultivars were sown in a randomized complete block design with three replications. the results showed that during breeding activi...

African yam bean (Sphenostylis stenocarpa) is an underexploited legume with the potential of becoming an alternative food staple to alleviate the problem of food security. An assessment was carried out on the growth and yield of AYB affected by Telfairia mosaic virus (TeMV) Infection. Telfairia mosaic virus caused severe mosaic, leaf distortion and malformation on AYB. Analyses of results revea...

in order to assess the drought tolerance in 15 lentil genotypes, a field experiment was conducted during 2001-02 growing season in dryland agricultural research institute (dari) station of shirvan, in northern khorasan, iran, under rainfed and irrigated conditions. the experimental design was rcb with three replications. data for agronomic traits of plant height, number of empty and filled pods...

soil salinity is a serious problem in south khouzestan province. this study was conducted in shawoor agricultural research station, north of the city of ahwaz, on silty-clay soil with 8 dsm-1 salinity during 2006 and 2007. a completely randomized block design arranged in split plots with three replications was used. the plots (planting methods) were: broadcasting + disk harrow (p1), broadcastin...

Nano fertilizers are new products which contain readily available nutrients in the nano scale range and are preferred largely due to their efficiency. This research was conducted to assessment the effect of nano chelated of micro nutrient on agronomic traits of Cowpea via factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with four replications during 2016 seasonal year. The treatme...

introduction sunflower (helianthus annuus l.) is one of the most important oil crops in the world. iran is climatically regarded as an arid and semi-arid region in the world, where the lack of precipitation and its inappropriate distribution, high temperature and extensive evaporation makes the irrigation the main way for meeting plants water demand. hence, studying the effect of irrigation on ...
