to evaluate the agronomic characteristics in three brassica species (rape, indian mustard, and turnip) and to determine the best stress tolerance indices, 16 brassica cultivars were studied under controlled conditions in -0.6 mpa of stress and as well under field (either stressed or irrigated) conditions at the dryland agricultural research station, kermanshah during 2004-05. the results showed...

the use of more competitive species and cultivars in small grain cereal production may help to develop production systems that require less herbicide. this study was designed to identify root and shoot characteristics of cereal seedlings that would allow distinguishing the more competitive (mc) cultivars from the less competitive (lc) ones. two growth cabinet trials were conducted using four cr...

Mustard is a Brassica vegetable that provides a number of phytonutrients. However, the phytonutrient profile of mustard has been relatively limited. We analyzed the glucosinolates and their hydrolysis products, carotenoids, total anthocyanin and phenolic contents, and antioxidant capacity of the leaves of 11 mustard cultivars grown in a greenhouse at the baby leaf and mature stages. An aliphati...

for determination of economic damage threshold of four wheat (triticum aestivum l.) cultivars in different densities of wild mustard (sinapis arvensis l.), experiments were conducted at agricultural research station gorgan during 2010-2012. the experimental design consisted of four randomized complete blocks in a factorial arrangement. the treatments comprised of factorial combination of wild m...

introduction: weeds causing 15 % or more damage to crops, annually. the amount of these damages depends upon different factors such as cultivar type and weeds species. wild mustard is a cosmopolitan and most serious broad leaf weed in wheat fields which has widespread through world including iran. rapid emergence of wild mustard under cold condition and fast growth early in the spring are reaso...

in order to investigate the competitive effects of wild mustard on yield and yield components of wheat cultivars, field experiments was conducted in gorgan reaserch station during 2010-2012 growing seasons. the experiments were laid out in four replicated, factorial arranged rcb design. factors of the experiments included five different densities of wild mustard (0, 4, 8, 16 and 32 plants.m-2) ...

Phytoremediation is an emerging technology that uses various plants to degrade, extract, contain, or immobilize contaminants from soil and water. Certain fern and Indian mustard species have been suggested as candidates for phytoremediation of heavy metal-contaminated soil and water because of their high efficiency of accumulating metals in shoots and their high biomass production. Currently, n...

Mustard leaf (Brassica juncea (L.) Czern.) using as material of a traditional fermented vegetable food (Kimchi) in Korea, is one of the important vegetables. Two cultivars of mustard (red and green) were grown in the experimental farm of Chungnam National University and allowed them to grow until flowering stage. In this study, the variability of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) content and mRNA tran...

The reproduction of a Wyoming population of Heterodera schachtii was determined for resistant trap crop radish (Raphanus sativus) and mustard (Sinapis alba) cultivars, and resistant and susceptible sugar beet (Beta vulgaris) cultivars in a greenhouse (21 degrees C/16 degrees C) and a growth chamber study (25 degrees C). Oil radish cultivars also were field tested in 2000 and 2001. In the greenh...

The metacomputing system Amica is a new approach to support the development of coarse grained applications for distributed, dynamic, heterogeneous systems (e.g. computers linked to the Internet). It aims at location-transparent and convenient design of distributed applications and at easy integration of legacy systems. Applications are described in the form of application graphs based on a pred...
