Abstract Cover crops enhance the biodiversity of cropping systems and can support a variety useful ecosystem services, including weed suppression. In California orchards, cover are typically implemented as annual plants that replace resident vegetation in orchard alleyways during rainy winter season. Our research objective was to evaluate crop management factors competitive, weed-suppressing un...

Ochrobactrum anthropi SUBG007 was isolated from the fruit of Prunus dulcis in Rajkot (22.30°N, 70.78°E), Gujarat, India. Here we present the 4.37 Mb genome sequence strain SUBG007, which may provide the genetic information for the application in environment pollution degradation and agriculture field. The strain also posses many genes cluster which involved in production of important secondary ...

almond (prunus dulcis [webb] d.a. mill) is an economically important species of genus prunus (rosaceae, subfamily prunoideae). the commercial edible part of almond fruit is kernel. fertilization is essential for nut production in almond but most cultivars are self or even cross-incompatible. self-incompatibility in almond is gametophytic and controlled by a single s-locus with multiple codomina...

Drought stress is the most important factor limiting successful production of agricultural crops worldwide. The response some almond cultivars grafted on GF677 rootstock was studied to drought at a research greenhouse in Horticultural Science Research Institute Karaj, Iran, 2016-2017 growing season. plant materials included 12 (Prunus dulcis Mill.) genotypes/cultivars, including ‘Sh10’, ‘Saba’,...

A field experiment was conducted on almond (Prunus dulcis) to study the effect of N&K fertigation on growth, yields and leaf nutrient status over two seasons (2011 and 2012) in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, India. There were six treatments, namely, T1--100% recommended dose of fertilizers as soil application, T2--100% RDF through fertigations, T3--75% RDF through fertigation, T4--75% RDF through...
