to evaluate the effects of sowing date, cultivars and herbicides on weed species control and soybean yield, a strip split plot layout in as a randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted in dasht-e-naz company sari-iran, in 2008. treatments included two planting dates (planting june 7th and 27th), soybean cultivars (bp, jk, 032, 033 and sahar) and herbicide application...

in order to study the effect of water hardness on sinosulforun efficacy an experiment was carried out under controlled conditions in 2010 at the college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad. treatments included herbicides doses at 6 levels (0, 200, 250, 300, 350 and 400 g.a.i ha-1), calcium carbonate concentration at 6 levels (0, 100, 300, 600, 1000 and 1500 ppm) and weeds at 2 levels...

Weeds are commonly found in bermudagrass turf during the winter and early spring throughout the Southeastern United States whether this turf is used for lawns, parks, athletic fields or golf courses. Mild winter temperatures favor rapid growth of these annuals. When bermudagrass goes dormant in the fall after the first killing frost, it does not compete with germinating winter weeds. Bermudagra...

this experiment was conducted to study the effect of nozzle types and the time of herbicide incorporation in soil on weed control, using split plot design by randomized block design. the main plots were soil and herbicide mixing time and the subplots were nozzle types with three replications. this study was performed in karaj station of seed and plant improvement institute, located 25 km west o...

Calcium oxide is one of the appropriate catalysts for biodiesel production. In this study, cheap and compatible with environment catalyst has been used. Mussel shell of Persian Gulf coast is one of the sources of calcium carbonate that is converted to calcium oxide at calcination temperature up to 950°C. Transesterification reaction was carried out at optimum condition of our previous study...

the effect of nitrogen (n) levels on n uptake by high weed densities at early growth stages of corn (zea mays l., cv. double cross 370) was investigated for two years (2008-2009) at the agricultural research station of shiraz university. the experiment was arranged in a split-plot arrangement in the randomized complete blocks design with three replications. two levels of weed control (weedy and...

Herbicides are currently pivotal to control weeds and sustain food security. Herbicides must efficiently kill weeds while being as harmless as possible for crops, even crops taxonomically close to weeds. To increase their selectivity toward crops, some herbicides are sprayed in association with safeners that are bioactive compounds exacerbating herbicide-degrading pathways reputedly specificall...
