breeding based on selection indices is an effective method for improving complex traits such as yield. to assess the efficiency of different selection methods, 50 genotypes of tall fescue (festuca arundinace) were evaluated under two moisture conditions including full irrigation (normal environment) and deficit irrigation (stress environment). the experiment was conducted according to a randomi...

abstract             this study was conducted to investigate the effects of different levels of yeast and molasses on chemical composition and nutritional value of artiplex lentiformis silage. the levels of yeast include: zero (control), 2.5 and 5 g/kg dry matter and levels of molasses include: zero (control), 10 and 15 percent that were added to atriplex and then ensiled. the experiment arrang...

dry matter remobilization, grain filling rate and duration has principle role on rice grain yield, and environment condition directly affect on them. for study the influence of climate factors a factorial field experiment in randomized complete blocks design with three replications conducted at haraz extention and technology development centre in spring 2013. treatments included rice cultivars ...

A large amount of oyster mushrooms is wasted every year due to post-harvest losses/decays. An experiment was conducted to observe the effect of low temperature to extend shelf life and nutritional quality of oyster mushroom. The experiment consisted of two treatments including: mushrooms stored at ambient (25 °C) temperature or stored at 3 °C temperature. The experiment wa...

in order to prevent the shrinkage of olive fruit and maintain its fresh being, and  also to increase the oil content and dry matter, the effect of kaolin at three levels of application (0, 2.5% and 5%) on four varieties of olive (mission, conservolea, keillet, blady) was evaluated within a period of four months, in ahwaz, the tests being repated in 3 replicates. results revealed significant eff...
