in order to apply suitable methods for sugar beet seed sowing and determine the relation between yield and growth parameters in saline soils, two salt tolerant progeny lines were sown by five methods for two years (1995 and 1996) using a split plot design. growth parameters such as leaf area index, crop growth rate, total dry weight and relative growth rat were analysed. ph and ec of the soil a...

Fungal diversity in the soil may be limited under natural conditions by inappropriate environmental factors such as: nutrient resources, biotic and abiotic factors, tillage system and microbial interactions that prevent the occurrence or survival of the species in the environment. The aim of this paper was to determine fungal genetic diversity and community level physiological profiling of micr...

ABSTRACT The objective of this work was to compare three methods estimating the optimal plot size evaluate fresh matter in black oat (Avena strigosa Schreb), common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) and forage turnip (Raphanus sativus intercropping. Six uniformity trials with oat, intercropping were carried out. Three evaluated at 84 days after sowing other 119 sowing. 216 basic experimental units (36 pe...

Composts are known for their suppressive properties toward many different seed- and root-infecting pathogens and diseases. Although disease and pathogen suppression induced by composts is believed to be mediated by microbial activities, the nature of the microbial species and processes responsible for suppressiveness remain unknown. We demonstrated previously that seed-colonizing microbial cons...

The present study in a two-year experiment investigated the influence of drought and sowing time on protein composition, antinutrients, and mineral contents of wheat whole meal of two genotypes differing in their water requirements. Different thermal conditions prevailing during the grain filling period under different sowing time generated a large effect on the amount of total soluble proteins...

Irradiated pollen technique is the most successful haploidization technique within Cucurbitaceae. After harvesting of fruits pollinated with irradiated pollen, classical method called as "inspecting the seeds one by one" is used to find haploid embryos in the seeds. In this study, different methods were used to extract the embryos more easily, quickly, economically, and effectively. "Inspecting...

The field experiment was carried out during the summer season of 2021-2022 to study response different weed management practices on growth and yield black gram. Cyperus sp., Phyllanthus niruri, Trianthema portulacastrum, Amaranthus viridis were dominant weeds. It observed that besides free treatment lowest count, dry weight weeds (3.66 g m-2), index (2.73%) as well highest control efficiency (6...
