plant growth regulators (pgrs) are widely used for lodging control in winter wheat (triticum aestivum l.) grown at high n rates. although the introduction of semi-dwarf wheat cultivars had largely solved the problem of lodging, evidence was already accumu-lating that the timely application of a growth retardant such as chlormequat (ccc) or ethephon could increase the grain yield of wheat, by th...

background & aim: the genus satureja belonging to the family of lamiaceae and consists of over 235 different species throughout the world. fourteen species grow naturally in iran of which eleven species are endemic. different species of satureja are used in food, healthy, cosmetic and medical industry. this reseach has been carried due to selection and introduction of suitable germplasm in ...

In complex task domains, such as games, students may exceed their teachers. Such tasks afford diverse means to tradeoff one type of performance for another, combining task elements in novel ways to yield method variations and strategy discoveries that, if mastered, might produce large or small leaps in performance. For the researcher interested in the development of extreme expertise in the wil...

in order to determine the appropriate plant density of spotted bean in yasouj, a field experiment was conducted in 2008 as a factorial in a randomized complete block design with three replications. three spotted bean cultivars (keshavarzi, talash and oshtori) were sown at five plant densities (10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 plant.m-2). results showed that effect of plant density, cultivar and interactio...

to study the impact of iron nanoparticles foliar application on mitigating the effects of drought stress on yield, yield components and  oil percentage of goldasht spring safflower cultivar, an experiment was carried out in 2012 in the agricultural research farm station of islamic azad university, roudehen branch as split plot in a completely randomized blocks design with three replications. in...

objective:  in addition to the role of organic matter in plant nutrition, this material improves soil quality, physical structure, ventilation and water supply, and ease of penetration and expansion is rooted deep in the soil surface. effects of organic matter due to climatic factors, soil characteristics may vary from region to region, resulting in organic materials management must be given to...

abstract the critical period of weed control (cpwc) is a period in the crop growth cycle during which weeds must be controlled to prevent yield losses. in order to determine the critical period of weed control (cpwc) of corn in hamedan, an experiment was conducted in 2007 at agricultural research station of bu-ali sina university of hamedan. the experiment was carried out as a randomized comple...

in order to estimate heritability and gene action for grain yield and its related traits in lentil, six basic generations were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications in a field experiment. besides seed yield per plant, plant height, pod length, and 100-seed weight, the number of pods per plant, primary branches, clusters per plant, nodes per main stem, secondary...

this experiment was laid out in order to evaluate the effects  of different biofertilizers on yield components of barley. the experiment was a factorial design with three replications. treatments were three nitrogen biofrtilizers (nitroksin, nitrokara and supernitroplass) and three phosphate  biofrtilizers (phosphate barvar2, biozarr and superplass) with control for them and yield components we...
