intercropping is a correct method of management for crop production and leads to improvement of resource absorption and use by plants. in order to evaluate light interception and some characteristics of canopy in monocropping and intercropping of maize (zea mays l.) and faba bean (vicia faba l.) under climatic conditions of tabriz, a field experiment was conducted in 2006-2007 at the research s...

in order to evaluate the effect of water deficit and different fertilizer levels on yield and some agro-morphological characteristics of moldavian balm, a split plot experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications at the research farm of shahrekord university during 2013-2014 growing season. main factor was three levels of irrigation regimes including: 100...

Intercropping is the simultaneous cultivation of more than one crop species on the same piece of land and is regarded as the practical application of basic ecological principles such as diversity, competition and facilitation. Field experiments were carried out on a sandy loam soil and a sandy soil in Denmark over three consecutive cropping seasons including dual grain legume (pea, faba bean an...

to study the possible use of phytase and yeast (saccharomyces cervisiae) in corn-soy bean meal base diet with different levels of available phosphorous in arbor acers broiler chicks, an experiment was conducted with 264 day old chicks of an average weight of 44.6 grams each. a completely randomized design of 6 treatments and 4 replications (11 chicks per replicate) for periods of starter, growe...

Enhancing water use efficiency of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) is a major focus for coriander breeding to cope with drought stress. The purpose of this study was; (a) to identify the predominant mechanism(s) of drought resistance in coriander and (b) to evaluate the genetic control mechanism(s) of traits associated with drought resistance and higher fruit yield. To reach this purpose, 15 h...

in order to study the intercropping arrangements of coriander (coriandrum sativum l.) and fenugreek (trigonella foenum-graecum l.), a field experiment was conducted during growing season of 2010 at agriculture research station, college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran. a randomized complete block design with three replications was used. treatments included: mono-crop of fenu...

Grain legume improvement is currently impeded by a lack of genomic resources. The paucity of genome information for faba bean can be attributed to the intrinsic difficulties of assembling/annotating its giant (~13 Gb) genome. In order to address this challenge, RNA-sequencing analysis was performed on faba bean (cv. Wizard) leaves. Read alignment to the faba bean reference transcriptome identif...
