anastrepha bezzii (diptera: tephritidae) larvae are common inside fruits of sterculia chicha (malvaceae) in minas gerais state, brazil. the seed dormancy and attack by a. bezzii of the native species s.chicha can be detrimental to seed germination and thus the natural spread of this plant. the objectives of the current study were to compare ecological observations of a. bezzii and s. chicha in ...

the present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of these two factors as well as their interaction on seed germination of eucalyptus (e. camaldulensis). a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design with three replications was used. five salinity levels including 0, 50, 100, 150, 200 mm sodium chloride were tested on seed collected at top, middle and bottom of the tree. ...

drought stress is one of the important problems in arid and semi_arid regions. drought stress take place in plants when available water is lesser than evapotranspiration. in order to evaluate the effect of drought stress on morphological traits and yield of three medicinal plants an experiment was carried out during the 2010 year in research greenhouse of faculity of agriculture, ferdowsi unive...

Background: Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum - graecum L.) is an annual medicinal plant belongs to the legume family and has anti-diabetic, anti-fertility, anticancer, anti-microbial, anti-parasitic and hypocholesterolaemic effects. Objective: Evaluation of growth and trigonelline /mucilage content in fenugreek under application of plant growth regulators (PGR). Methods: The experiment was conduc...

in order to study of hydropriming, planting depth and nitrogen split application effect on yield and yield components of double cross hybrid of corn, an experiment was carried out as factorial based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with four replications. nitrogen split application included (400 kg/ha at sowing date, 100 kg/ha at sowing date and 300 kg/ha 25 to 50 days after sowing da...

Brassica napus is an important oilseed crop worldwide. Although seed weight is the main determinant of seed yield, few studies have focused on the molecular mechanisms that regulate seed weight in B. napus. In this study, the immature seeds of G-42 and 7-9, two B. napus doubled haploid (DH) lines with extremely different thousand-seed weight (TSW), were selected for a transcriptome analysis to ...
