Crop yield mainly depends on environment and cultivation practices that vary according to a growing environment. However, an oat (Avena sativa L.)-common vetch (Vicia L.) intercrop system has not been fully developed in the agro-pastoral ecotone of Inner Mongolia, China. This study evaluated effects seven treatments, including five oat-common intercropping patterns, sole oat, quality performanc...

Vicia sativa L. (common vetch) is an annual legume species of high economic and ecological importance which characterized by nutritive value for animal feeding its ability to adapt various edaphic–climatic conditions. However, limited information available about genotypic environmental effects on agronomic, nutritional, antinutritional traits common vetch genotypes. Thus, in the present study, ...

this experiment contained four vetch lines (vicia panonica ) that conducted in two locations (faruj and bojnourd) in 2005-2006 in rcbd design with four replications under dryland conditions. analysis of variance indicated that there were significant differences among lines in different locations about all traits, except 100-seed weight. the interaction of genotype×location was significant on al...

Intercropping, mixed cropping, and rotation are commonly applied some of the oldest crop production techniques to improve soil structure nitrogen status. While takes generally two-season with one triticeae legume, inter-and cropping place within same season. Among many advantages legume most important is sustainable use resources reduced input cost. Numerous studies evaluated effect inter -and ...

Cys proteinases play important roles in plant cell development and senescence. A cDNA, AsNODf32, obtained by differential screening of a nodule cDNA library of the leguminous plant Chinese milk vetch (Astragalus sinicus), represents a nodule-specific Cys proteinase similar to that reported for the actinorhizal Alnus glutinosa-Flankia symbiosis. A characteristic feature of this proteinase is the...
