Three-year trials (2006-2008) were conducted in order to determine the influence of the herbicide diflufenican (trade name – Pelikan 50 CK) on certain biological traits of Bulgarian common bean cultivar Plovdiv 15 M. The herbicide was applied in the doses of 200, 250 and 300 ml/ha after the sowing and before the growth of the plants. It has been found that the traits related to the height of th...

Phenotypic correlation coefficients and heritability of the characters controlling seed yield of long-raceme forms of alfalfa was determined. It was found that seed yield per plant, which was positively correlated with 10 out of 12 analysed characters, depended upon the number of pods per raceme and the number of seeds per pod. Variability of these characters determined about 60% of the variabi...

in order to study the effect of sowing dates and cultivation methods on yield and other characteristics of two cultivars of common bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) an experiment based on split plot design was carried out with three replications in 2007 at khorramdarreh region of zanjan province. treatments consisted of three sowing dates (may 21, june 4&19), two cultivation methods (furrow and basi...

in order to investigate the effect of seed rate on seed yield and yield components of three rapeseed varieties, a split- plot experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design with four replicates during 2008-2009 at baykola agricultural research station, neka, mazandaran province. in this experiment four seed rates (5, 7, 9 and 11 kg.ha-1) as main plots, three rapeseed cultivars (hy...

Nano fertilizers are new products which contain readily available nutrients in the nano scale range and are preferred largely due to their efficiency. This research was conducted to assessment the effect of nano chelated of micro nutrient on agronomic traits of Cowpea via factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with four replications during 2016 seasonal year. The treatme...

chickpea fall planting may increase seed yield in comparison with spring planting due to the increased duration of growing period and increased water use efficiency. the most important problem with fall planting is the danger of occurrence of plant death and decreased seed yield quantitatively and qualitatively due to the cold stress. the major strategy in breeding program is development of gen...

knowledge of the relation between agronomical traits with economical yield is very important in crop improvement and breeding. in order to study of genetic diversity and identifying yield components, 568 kabuli type germplasm and 390 desi type chickpea germplasm that were available in pulses collection of faculty of agriculture, university of tehran, was investigated in this research in 2009 in...

inheritance of yield and its contributing characters in rapeseed (brassica napus l.) was studied in a 8×8 diallel cross through griffing and jinks-hayman analyses. both general combining ability (gca) and specific combining ability (sca) were highly significant for seed yield, seed weight and branches per plant, while only gca for seeds per pod and oil content and only sca for pods per plant an...

The present study was conducted to find out correlation and path analysis for 10 yield attributing traits using 159 diverse pea genotypes. Correlation studies revealed that the days 50% flowering, node at which 1st pod appears, number of pods/plant, seeds/pod, length, weight picking had significant positive with total yield/plant while, plant height shelling percentage were negatively correlate...
