In this research, leaf area prediction model was developed for some leaf-used maize (Zea mays L.) cultivars namely Coluna, Luce, Maveric, Ranchero, TTM-813, Zamora and RX-788 grown in Black Sea region of Turkey. Lamina width, length and leaf area were measured without destroying the leaf to develop the models. The actual leaf areas of the plants were measured by PLACOM Digital Planimeter and mu...

This study was conducted to evaluate the response of Iranian promisinglate blooming almond genotypes to deficit-irrigation stress on GN15 rootstock. One-year old plants subjectedto three deficit-irrigation, including moderate and severe stress (soil water potential, Ψsoil = -0.8 and -1.6 MPa, respectively) and a control treatment (Ψsoil= -0.33 MPa), were applied for six weeks to five grafting c...

to determine the relationship between yield and components of it and identify the effective traits on yield, 97 tomato landraces from west azarbaijan in iran (83 landraces) and iğdır in turkey (14 landraces) along with three commercial cultivars were studied using an alpha lattice design with two replications. the experiment was carried out at the agriculture and natural resources research cent...

The grain yield of pearl millet has increased continuously in past decades through development hybrids and improved production practices. Elite inbred lines are crucial for innovating new germplasm/traits to break the plateau. Hence, 64 were evaluated assess extent genetic variability association among agronomic, physiological contributing traits. Analysis variance showed significant difference...

abstract in order to determine the time of maximum demand of winter wheat (triticum aestivum l.) to phosphorous fertilizers and p and zinc (zn) distribution in different parts of wheat at various growth stages and study their relation to the contents of these elements in soil p and zn under field conditions, samples were collected from different parts of the plants at seven growth stages (i.e.,...

to study the effects of below leaves excision and nitrogen application on stomatal characteristics of wheat flag leaf, grain protein, dry matter remobilization, grain yield and yield component, leaf area of winter wheat (t. aestivum cv. ghods) was artificially reduced under filed condition. the experimental design was a factorial on a rcb with 3 replications, a combination of three levels of de...

Chemical and morphological characterization of different parts of banana plant(Musa paradisica) (peduncle, leaf stalk and pseudo stem) were carried out in orderto assess their potentiality for chemical pulp. Each portion was tested forextractives, sodium hydroxide solubility, ash, lignin, cellulose and pentosancontents as well as their fiber length and width. These segmented parts werecharacter...

rounded leaf tip. The leaf collar marks the junction of the leaf blade and sheath and appears when the leaf is fully developed. Each leaf sheath originates at its own node on the plant stalk. The sheath surrounds and strengthens the stalk (culm). The flag leaf is the last to emerge on the plant and is considerably smaller than the other leaves. The panicle (head) emerges from the flag leaf shea...
