to determine the optimum weed management method and plant population density on chickpea yield, a split plot experiment based on rcbd with four replications was carried out at the university of tehran research farm (located in karaj) during 2010-2011. the main factor consisted of nine treatments including: 1. trifluralin pre-plant, 2. pendimethalin pre-plant, 3. complete weeding, 4. imazethapyr...

Effect of foliar fertilization with zinc and manganese sulfate on yield, dry matter accumulation, contents in leaf seed chickpea (Cicer arietinum)Soheil Kobraee

in order to study the effect of pyridate, bentazon and imazethapyr herbicides on chickpea growth, nodulation and biological nitrogen fixation, a greenhouse experiment was conducted at ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2010. experimental type was completely randomized design with four replications. treatments included pyridate, bentazon and imazethapyr herbicides application in 1200, 720 and 75 ...

drought, high and low tempratures are the most important abiotic stresses in chickpea cultivation. improving plant root characteristics (root length and root volume) is one of the ways to increase drought tolerance in chickpea. mycorrhizal symbiosis increases drought resistance of host plants through different mechanisms. to study the effects of water stress and mycorrhizal fungi inoculation on...

chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) is a dry pulse crop commonly used from old time. the chickpea yield is lower as compared to maximum potentials of the cultivars. the gap could mainly be attributed to the weed competition in addition to other production constraints. although chickpeas are traditionally grown on residual soil moisture, weeds competition pose major problem in many situations. in orde...

In India, particularly in Manipur, the cultivation of fodder crops is given least attention as most agricultural land devoted to food meet demand our enormous population. As a result, livestock productivity state suffering. addition, single repeatedly over years using inorganic sources nutrients inputs for growth and development same field leads low production at cost soil quality deterioration...

in order to evaluate the effect of different intercropping arrangements of cumin and chickpea on seed yield and quality criteria of cumin an experiment was conducted in agricultural research station of ferdowsi university of mashhad in 2010 growing season. an experiment was conducted as split plot on the basis of complete randomized block design with three replicatons. the main plot included ar...

this experiment was conducted to determine gene action for different traits of chickpea including days to 50% flowering, days to maturity, plant height, 100-seed weight, number of primary branches, and number of pods per plant and seed yield since 2006 to 2009 in sararood dry land research sub institute in kermanshah. five genotypes arman, hashem, ilc588, iccv2 and ilc3279 were selected and cro...
