Background and aim: The genus Satureja L. (Lamiaceae) includes 12 species of annual and perennial herbaceous plant in Iran. Satureja species have economic and medicinal importance because of their high essential oil content. In addition, they are used as culinary herbs and in the food, perfume and cosmetic industries. The aim of this study was to inve...

seed dormancy is a genetically inherited trait whose intensity is modified by the environment during seed development and maturation. in order to study the effect of harvest time on the seed quality and optimum time of sowing to obtain good quality seeds, freshly threshed seeds of ten diverse rice genotypes harvested from six environments were evaluated for seed dormancy and seedling vigour ind...

A research was conducted in Southern Italy to study the changes in seed yield, oil content andfatty acids composition, in response to irrigation at different stages of growing season (at sowing,Dry; from sowing to beginning of flowering, S-BF; from visible bud to 75% flowering, VB-FF;from beginning of flowering to seed ripening, BF-M; from sowing to seed ripening, Full), in astandard sunflower ...

in order to investigate the response of cotton cultivars (gossypium hirsutum l.) to conventional-cropping and double-cropping systems a field experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized completely block design with three replications at gonabad agriculture and natural resources research station during growing season of 2009-2010. the treatments included of recommended planting da...

in order to study the yield and growth indices of spring safflower as double cropping, an experiment was carried out in 2007 at the research farm of faculty of agriculture, yasouj university, iran. the experiment was a factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replications. factors included of combination of four sowing dates (may 16, june1, june 16 and july 2) and four cul...

evaluation of weed population and their interference on lentil varieties at different sowing date was investigated in a field experiment in khorramabad during 2005-06 growing season. the experimental design was a randomized complete block in factorial arrangement with 4 replications. the experiment had 3 factors including: planting date at three levels (autumn, winter, and spring) weed interfer...

Peanut or groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) sown in early spring often has poor seed germination and seedling development. The influence of soil temperature on seedling emergence and early growth of six peanut cultivars (Florida MDR98, Southern Runner, Georgia Green, SunOleic 97R, Florunner and C-99R) was studied in natural field soil profiles in temperature-gradient greenhouses. We evaluated the...
