Canola sensitivity to delayed sowing date should be managed in such a way that the observance of crop rotation with less reduced in seed yield. The research was conducted to evaluate the yield variation of Hyola401 hybrid, affected by sowing date and nitrogen fertilizer treatments. In this study, the effect of planting date and different levels of nitrogen fertilizers on effective characteristi...

to study the effect of harvesting time on soybean seed germination and vigor a factorial experiment with three replications, including of five harvesting time and three soybean cultivars was carried out in the field and glasshouse. the effect of harvesting time on seed germination percentage (in the field, cold test and paper test), seed germination rate, shoot and root weights, 1000-seed weigh...

The effects of seed source and seed size on germination and field performance were studied in five grasses. Greater seed weights were associated with better germination in Yorkshire fog, cocksfoot and timothy but not significantly so for Chewings fescue and browntop. In cocksfoot, Chewings fescue and timothy, higher seed weights were found in samples collected at altitudes above those generally...

in order to study the effects of different levels of animal manure and bulb weights on growth criteria, yield components, seed yield and essential oil yield of caraway, an experiment was conducted as factorial based on a randomized complete block design with three replications at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad, during two growing seasons of 2012-2013 and 2013-...

The aim of the present study was to compare the growth characteristics of guinea fowl fed on Mucuna pruriens (pica-pica, cow-hitch plant, cowhage, velvet bean, devil bean) seed with a control group at both starting and growing phases in extensive production in tropical Africa country (Benin). It was also attempt at determining meat traits and ascertains meat eventual contamination by L-Dopa for...

Laboratory studies were conducted to examine the effects of different concentrations of wild barley (Hordeum spontaneum Koch.) shoot and seed extracts on germination and seedling growth of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and wild barley. In this study, all wild barley shoot extract concentrations (with exception of lowest concentration) significantly reduced wheat seed germination after 7 days. Sh...

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...

Thirty age-matched healthy adult male New Zealand white rabbits (2.0 ± 0.5kg BW) were randomly divided into six groups (four treatment and two control groups). The treatment groups were given intraperitoneal injection of either 0.5ml or 1.0ml liquid extract of abeere seed or the alcoholic extract (w/v) and examined for 14 days. The effect of the seed extracts on the haematological parameters, s...
