Wheat yield depends on the number of grains per square metre, which in turn is related to the number of fertile florets at anthesis. The dynamics of floret generation/degeneration were studied in contrasting conditions of nitrogen (N) and water availability of modern, well-adapted, durum wheats in order to understand further the bases for grain number determination. Experiments were carried ou...

this study planed to determine appropriate planting date and proportion of alfalfa and barley in mixed cropping. experiment carried out in khair abad station of agricultural and natural resources research center of zanjan for five years (2004-2007), using split plot design which main plot was planting date (aug .15, sep.26 and oct .6) and subplot contain alfalfa to barley ratio, barley, alfalfa...

A field experiment was performed from 2003 to 2008 to evaluate the effects of tillage system and nitrogen management regimes on crop yields and nitrate leaching from the fluvo-aquic soil with a winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)-maize (Zea mays L.) double-cropping system. The tillage systems consisted of conventional tillage (CT) and no-tillage (NT). Three nitrogen management regimes were incl...

Abstract Inceptisol is one of the soil types covering Langkat Regency. Unfortunately, has low chemical fertility and characterized by a small part macronutrients. To support maize growth in inceptisol, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium are primary required nutrients. Hence, applying inorganic fertilizer strategies to solve this issue. This study was conducted at Sei Bingai District, Regency, from...

Soil salinity is one of major deleterious abiotic stress limiting the yield wheat crop. Plant growth produce severely affected by various biotic and environmental metabolic processes. Application Potash fertilizer can reduce harmful effects saline increase crop yield. This research was carried out to evaluate detrimental on suggest appropriate dose potash achieve optimum production under condit...

The effects of different concentrations of Zinc oxide nano particles (ZnONP; 0, 10, 25, 50, 75 and 100 mg L-1) and Humic acid (HA; 0, 50, 100, 500 and 1000 mg L-1) on root length and number, leaf length and number, bulb diameter, and chlorophyll, total phenol, anthocyanin and flavonoid contents were examined under in vitro conditions. Total phenol, flavonoid and anthocyanin contents were signif...
