The rice water weevil, Lissorhoptrus oryzophilus, is the most destructive insect pest of rice in the United States. Early planting of rice to avoid damaging infestations of the rice water weevil has long been suggested as a management tactic. A five-year study was conducted to characterize the influence of rice planting date on rice water weevil management in light of recent trends toward earli...

abstract nowruzak (salvia leriifolia) of lamiaceae family has a good capability for domestication in khorasan’s natural habitats. in order to investigate the effect of sowing design and depth in seedling emergence and permanence, a split plot experiment based on a randomized complete block design was performed with three replications. results indicated sowing design in all three parameters, sow...

(In the 3rd of April 2008) and in the morning of (16 April 2008), the temperature reached - 6 ο C in some pistachio gardens of Kerman County especially in Sirjan. The coldness was so high that affected not only on the open flowers but also on bud endings and lop growth, So that the next year product was endangered, as well. In order to study the effect of some treatments and decrease the damage...

Plant-parasitic nematodes are present on maize but resistant genotypes have not been identified in Uganda. This study was aimed at determining the level of nematode resistance among F(1) hybrids, and to estimate grain yield, heterosis and yield losses associated with maize hybrids under nematode infestation. The 30 F(1) hybrids and two local checks were evaluated in a split plot design with nem...

in order to study the effect of water deficit stress at different growth stages on yield and seed oil quality of rapeseed cultivars, a field experiment was conducted as split-plot in a randomized complete block design arrangement with three replications in 2009-2010 growing seasons in abarkouh in iran. four levels of irrigation were located in the main plot including, (i1) normal irrigation bas...

powdery mildew disease caused quality and quantity losses of sugar beet production. therefore, five spraying treatments and three sugar beet variety were conducted in split plot design with four reapplications during consecutive two years in kermanshah and mashhad regions. in order to control of disease, tridimorph fungicide was used. spraying treatments were in main plot and variety in the sub...

Millions of people worldwide have an inadequate intake selenium (Se) and zinc (Zn), agronomic biofortification may minimise these problems. To evaluate the efficacy combined foliar Se Zn fertilisation in bread making wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), a two-year field experiment was established southern Spain under semi-arid Mediterranean conditions, by following split-split-plot design. The study y...

in order to investigation of nitrogen fertilizer split application effect on quantity yield and grain quality of rice varieties, an experiment was carried out based on rcbd design as split plot experiment in three replications in langroud in 2006. mainand sub factor were variety (hashemi and bahar 1) and five nitrogen fertilizer split application (split of 150 kg.ha-1 n at transplanting, stemmi...

     For investigation deficit irrigation and nitrogen application effect on nutrients uptake of henna ecotypes, this research was conducted in the form of split-split-plot on the basis of randomized complete block design with four replications in the Research Field of Islamic Azad University, Jiroft, Iran in 2013-2014. The main, sub and sub-sub plot were deficit irrigation (100, 75 and 50% of ...
