An experiment entitled, “Effects of planting methods on growth and yield paddy (Oryza sativa L.)” was carried out during Kharif, 2020 at Agricultural Research Station Farm, VadgaonMaval, Tal. Maval, Dist. Pune to investigate effects attributes L.). The field laid in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with three replications. There were eight treatments comprising different sowing rice viz., T1-Sowin...

Native plants are an important part of New Zealand’s uniqueness, and there is increasing awareness of the need to maintain these species in managed landscapes, particularly pastoral areas, in addition to the country’s conservation lands. The most widely used method of establishing native plants is transplanting nursery-grown seedlings, and for many species, much experience and knowledge has bee...

Successful establishment of plants is limited by both biotic and abiotic conditions and their interactions. Seedling establishment is also used as a direct measure of habitat suitability, but transient changes in vegetation might provide windows of opportunity allowing plant species to colonize sites which otherwise appear unsuitable. We aimed to study spatio-temporal variability in the effects...

A study was conducted to check the effect of different sowing dates and row spacing on the growth, seed yield and quality of offseason pea (Pisum sativum L. cv. Climax). Significant differences were recorded among sowing dates for days to germination while nonsignificant results were found for row spacing and interaction (A × B). Maximum days to germination were recorded in D1 (20 th April) and...

cumin (cuminum cyminum l.) is one of the most important cultivable medicinal plants in iran and today, it is the second most popular spice in the world after black pepper. it is essential to know the relationships between yield and its components in cumin breeding programs. therefore, different multivariate statistical analysis was performed on plant characters in cumin to determine the relatio...

Sowing date and density are two important factors in produce of coriander. A field experiment was conducted with treatments: sowing time (5 May, 20 May, 4 June and 19 June 2009) and plant density (10, 30, 50 and 70 plants m). The experimental plots were laid out in a factorial according to a RCBD with three replications. Results showed that the effect of sowing dates and densities were signific...

The effect of different pre-sowing seed treatments and sowing dates on germination and rootstock quality of ber was assessed to standardize a combination which could yield optimum germination and quality rootstock. Of the fourteen pre-sowing treatments, highest seed germination and best seedling growth was obtained in T10 x D2 (seed soaking in water for 48 hours followed by 6 days storage in mo...
