The fluxes of (1) exogenous nitrogen (N) assimilation and (2) remobilization of endogenous N from vegetative plant compartments were measured by 15N labeling during the seed-filling period in pea (Pisum sativum L. cv Cameor), to better understand the mechanism of N remobilization. While the majority (86%) of exogenous N was allocated to the vegetative organs before the beginning of seed filling...

In order to identify the effects of different levels of nitrogen fertilizer on seed yield and seed growth indices of some bread and durum wheat genotypes, a field experiment was conducted in 2013-2014 in Khuzestan Agricultural and Natural Resource Research Center. The experiment was designed as a split plot with three replications. Nitrogen application rates (50, 100 and 150 kg N.ha-1) were ass...

The goal of this study was to observe the impact of agro-management practices like, irrigation and nutrition on two pea (Pisum sativum) cultivars named Climax and Meteor at Horticultural Research Area, U.A.F. Growth parameters like Main stem Length (cm), number of leaves per plant, leaf Area (cm), number of pods per plant, length of pod (cm) number of seeds per pod and reproductive attributes l...

in order to study the effect of irrigation on fatty acid composition, oil and protein content of sunflower cultivars included azargol, allstar, alison and euroflor, an experiment was conducted at experimental field of the agricultural faculty of bu-ali sina university in 2007. treatments were arranged on split plot based on randomized complete block with three replications. the irrigation treat...

in order to study the effect of deficit irrigation at reproductive growth stages on growth and grain yield of four sunflower cultivars namely: azargol, allstare, alison and euroflor, an experiment was conducted during the 2007 growing season at the experimental field of the agricultural faculty of bu-ali sina university. the experimental design was a split plot one, based upon a randomized comp...

Understanding variation in SW (seed weigh) is of major importance in understanding SY (seed yield) variation. The objective of this study was to determine factors such as SN (seed number) per unit area, SFD (seed filling duration) and SFR (seed filling rate) and temperature, LAI (leaf area index), LAD (leaf area duration), above-ground dry matter, CGR (crop growth rate), leaf dry matter re...

In the present study factors responsible for low seed biomass in wild Cicer species has been investigated. Cicer judaicum and chickpea cultivar PBG-1 were investigated to compare activities of some enzymes involved in carbon metabolism in podwall and seeds during crop development. Seed filling duration in wild species was about 15 days shorter than that of cultivated varieties due to rapid loss...
