to study the effect of plant density and planting pattern on iranian ox-tongue, an experiment carried out with two factors: planting pattern (square and rectangular pattern) and plant density (2, 4, 6, 8 plant m-2) in a factorial test performed based on rcbd in 3 replications during 2009-2010 in latmahalleh eshkevarat village in guilan province, iran. characteristics that measured included: dry...

to determine the relationship between yield and components of it and identify the effective traits on yield, 97 tomato landraces from west azarbaijan in iran (83 landraces) and iğdır in turkey (14 landraces) along with three commercial cultivars were studied using an alpha lattice design with two replications. the experiment was carried out at the agriculture and natural resources research cent...

the aim of this study was evaluation of some of characters, estimation of their heritability and their relationship in 104 recombinant inbred lines population of durum wheat under pot and field conditions. the inbred lines, their parents and control genotypes were evaluated in completely randomized design in 3 replications at pot study and in augment design at field condition. analysis of varia...

Developing Berberis hispanica Boiss & Reuter berries are heavily attacked by a single species of fly larvae which feed on seed contents. There is a steady increase in fruit attack incidence with increasing number of seeds in the fruit, and individual developing seeds have a greater average probability of escaping predation when single in fruits (0.688) than when two (0.379) or more (0.120) are ...

BACKGROUND Flowering synchrony and floral sex ratio have the potential to influence the mating opportunities and reproductive success through female function. Here, we examine the variances in synchronous display of female and male function, ratio of male to female flowers per day and subsequently reproductive output in small populations of two monoecious plants, Sagittaria trifolia and Sagitta...

An experiment was conducted to manage the eggplant (brinjal) shoot and fruit borer Leucinodes orbonalis Guenée (Lepidoptera: Crambidae), the leafhopper Amrasca biguttula biguttula (Ishida) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae), and the whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) during kharif, the southwest monsoon season (Jul-Oct), in 2010 and 2011 at an experimental farm at the Division ...
