in order to evaluate the effect of nitrogen rate and weeding time on weed communities dynamic, a field study conducted in a research farm of chamran university, ahwaz. the experimental design was split plot based on rcb with three replications. nitrogen rates (77, 110, 143 kg/ha) were considered in the main plot and time of weeding (at 5, 8, 11, leaf stage with control and weedy plot) as sub pl...

in order to evaluate the competitive ability (ca) of canola cultivars against wild mustard, two experiments were conducted at the gorgan institute in iran during the 2005-2007 cropping seasons. the experimental factors were canola cultivars (1st year: zarfam, option500, hayola330, hayola401, talayh, rgs003 and sarigol; 2nd year: zarfam, hayola330, rgs003 and option500) and weed density (1st yea...

Since transgenic, bromoxynil-resistant cotton and glufosinate-resistant canola were introduced in 1995, planting of transgenic herbicide-resistant crops has grown substantially, revolutionizing weed management where they have been available. Before 1995, several commercial herbicide-resistant crops were produced by biotechnology through selection for resistance in tissue culture. However, non-t...

Genetically-modified (GM) varieties of crops, notably soybean, maize, rape (canola) and cotton were first grown commercially in 1996. In 2010 they occupied 148 million ha in 29 countries, mostly in the Americas and Asia but with an obvious absence in Europe where their introduction has been controversial due to concerns about environmental impairment and adverse impacts on human health. This pa...

background and objectives: seedy watermelon (citrullus lanatus) is a crop that is planted in as a second crop after winter crops some parts of country. this crop is more attended by farmers due to the short time between planting and maturity, low production costs and greater profitability rather than other spring crops. in order to evaluate the interaction effects between weeds and seed priming...

a field experiment was conducted in research farm of isfahan university of technology, isfahan, iran in 2011 . various weeding periods were investigated on growth and yield of potato under drip tape and furrow irrigation systems. a split plot arrangement was used in a randomized complete block design with three replications. irrigation treatments were included in main plots and periods of weed ...

in order to study the effects of wild mustard density on grain yield and yield components of canola cv. hyola 401 under different rates of nitrogen fertilizer, a field experiment was conducted in 2011-2012. the layout was split-plot in a completely randomized block design and three replications. main-plots included four levels of nitrogen (0, 70, 140 and 210 kg ha-1) and sub-plots consisted of ...
