African yam bean (Sphenostylis stenocarpa) is an underexploited legume with the potential of becoming an alternative food staple to alleviate the problem of food security. An assessment was carried out on the growth and yield of AYB affected by Telfairia mosaic virus (TeMV) Infection. Telfairia mosaic virus caused severe mosaic, leaf distortion and malformation on AYB. Analyses of results revea...

to study the effects of plant density and nitrogen rates on the ability of canola (regent  cobra; an inbred variety) to compete with weeds, an experiment was conducted as a factorial complete block design with four replications. the treatments included four levels of plant density at 150, 190, 230, and 270 plants m-2, and four levels of nitrogen (n) fertil-izer at 0, 46, 92, and 138 kg ha–1. r...

common vetch ) vicia sativa .l) is belong to fabaceae family and due to adaptation and tolerance to environmental stresses are considered. in this research, morphological and agronomic characteristics of 89 genotypes of common vetch ) vicia sativa .l) were evaluated in an augmented design under irrigated and drought stress conditions in research field of university of tehran at karaj in 2011. r...

in order to study the effect of different redroot pigweed (amaranthus retroflexus) density on yield, yield components of soybean cultivar and determining competitive cultivar, a field experiment was carried out at mazandaran agricultural research station 2006. experiment was set up at a randomized complete block design with five rates of pigweed (0, 4, 8, 12 and 16 plant per square meter) and t...

in order to study the effect of vermicompost containing copper oxide and zinc oxide nanoparticles on was beans, in an experiment factorial were done based on a randomized complete block design in three replications. the experiment treatment were as follows: nanoparticles in 4 levels (0, 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 g/kg weight of substrate), vermicompost in 3 levels (2.5, 5 and 7.5 g/kg-1 weight of substra...

In order to determine the responses of morphological characteristics, yield and yield components of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) to plant density and weed interference duration, a factorial experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design with 3 replications at the Rice Research Institute of Iran (RRII) in Rasht, in the 2008 growing season. The factors comprised plant density a...
