The number of pods per plant and the number of seeds per pod are the most variable yield components in winter oilseed rape (WOSR). The production of a seed is the combination of several physiological processes, namely formation of ovules and pollen grains, fertilization of the ovules and development of young embryos, any problem in these processes may result in seed abortion or pod abortion. Bo...

in order to study the morphological, phenological and yield characteristics of 70 desi chickpea genotypes, a trial was conducted on 2007 in research farm of agriculture faculty of ferdowsi university of mashhad. in this study, 70 desi chickpea genotypes from ferdowsi university of mashhad seed bank, were planted in plots without replication including one to four planting rows at maximum length ...

in order to study the effect of spraying of abscisic acid on yield and yield components of chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) under rainfed and supplementary irrigation, a field experiment was conducted in 2010 in agricultural research station of ilam university. a split factorial experiment based on a randomized complete block design was conducted. main plots were composed of two levels of irrigati...

In this paper, we prove arithmetic properties modulo 5 and 7 satisfied by the function pod(n) which denotes the number of partitions of n wherein odd parts must be distinct (and even parts are unrestricted). In particular, we prove the following: For all n ≥ 0, pod(135n + 8) ≡ 0 (mod 5), pod(135n + 107) ≡ 0 (mod 5), pod(135n + 116) ≡ 0 (mod 5), pod(675n + 647) ≡ 0 (mod 25), pod(3375n + 1997) ≡ ...

In order to determine the responses of morphological characteristics, yield and yield components of rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) to plant density and weed interference duration, a factorial experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design with 3 replications at the Rice Research Institute of Iran (RRII) in Rasht, in the 2008 growing season. The factors comprised plant density a...
