due to limited water resources, applying efficient water use in agriculture is very important. this experiment was carried out in kabootarabad agricultural research station for two years using split plots in a randomized complete block design with four replications. six irrigation treatments based on evaporation from class a pan were applied as the main factor at three cotton growing stages, na...

in order to determine the best time of cotton irrigation in east of mazandaran province, an experiment, conducted for 3 successive years in agricultural research station of baykola. six treatments and four replications were carried out with randomized complete block designs for sahel variety. water treatments were carried out based on, i0: no irrigation, i1: once irrigation in boll opening stag...

Year to year change in weather poses serious threats agriculture globally, especially developing countries. Global climate models simulate an increase global temperature between 2.9 5.5 °C till 2060, and crop production is highly vulnerable warming trends. Extreme causes a significant reduction yields by negatively regulating the phenology. Therefore, evaluate impact on cotton (Gossypium hirsut...

to determine the best planting date and irrigation schedule in a cotton field (gossypium hirsutum var.varamin) in garmsar region an experiment was conducted in 2011. the experimental design was splitplot based on randomized complete block with three replications. three irrigation termination dates (2011sep 11th, 2011 sep 21st and 2011 oct 2nd) arranged in main plots as main factor and three pla...

In this study, a soil culture experiment was set up in barrels to investigate the effect of waterlogging duration at different growth stages on the growth, yield, and quality of cotton in the Huang-Huai Region of China during summer. The experiment was conducted at four growth stages of cotton (seedling, squaring, flowering, and boll opening), and the waterlogging duration at each stage was set...

Defoliants can increase machine harvest efficiency of cotton (Gossypium hirusutum L.), prevent lodging and reduce the time from defoliation to harvest. Coronatine (COR) is a chlorosis-inducing non-host-specific phytotoxin that induces leaf and/or fruit abscission in some crops. The present study investigates how COR might induce cotton leaf abscission by modulating genes involved in cell wall h...

Aflatoxin assays and moisture determinations were made on locks from bolls inoculated with Aspergillus flavus 30-32 days from flower and harvested after additional periods of 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 and 15 days. Inoculated locks were always tight but had moisture contents comparable to those in noninoculated locks on the same bolls. Lowest toxin concentrations were in seeds from bolls still green at ha...
