to study the effect of plant density and planting pattern on iranian ox-tongue, an experiment carried out with two factors: planting pattern (square and rectangular pattern) and plant density (2, 4, 6, 8 plant m-2) in a factorial test performed based on rcbd in 3 replications during 2009-2010 in latmahalleh eshkevarat village in guilan province, iran. characteristics that measured included: dry...

abstract in order to investigate the effect of biofertilizer, chemical fertilizer and plant density on yield and corm criteria of saffron, an experiment was conducted as complete randomized block design in a factorial arrangement with three replications under field condition in agricultural college, ferdowsi university of mashhad during 3 years of 2007,2008,2009. treatments included nitroxin bi...

abstract rosa damascena has attracted considerable attention in horticulture, biochemistry and in pharmacology because of the fragrance of the flowers and the high content of its bio-logically active substances. there is limited information available on factors controlling flower yield and its components. the present study reports an investigation on flower yield and the various factors affect...

this study was carried out to investigate flower yield and yield components in iranian rosa damascena using 20 genotypes, collected from different regions of iran and grown in drylands and deserts research station of kashan, iran, using a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2007-2008. flower yield per plant, number of flowers per plant, plant height, leaf length, width, ...

Sexual dimorphism is one of the most widespread and recognizable patterns of phenotypic variation in the biotic world. Sexual dimorphism in floral display is striking in the dioecious plant Silene latifolia, with males making many, small flowers compared to females. We investigated this dimorphism via artificial selection on two populations to determine whether genetic variation exists within p...

in order to investigate the effect of high density and depth of planting on agronomic characteristic of saffron, a field experiment was conducted as a complete randomized block design with three replications in faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran during two growing seasons of 2008-2009 and 2009-2010. treatments were six levels of high densities (8, 11, 13, 16, 19 and 21...

Objective: Chamomile is one of the commercial medicinal plants produced in Ethiopia. Besides, it is priority crop in national aromatic and medicinal plants research project in the country. As chamomile production affected by production techniques this activity was conducted to identify the effect of seed storage duration and seedling raising methods on its seedling establishmen...

An alternative means by which to examine the importance of assimilates supply to flower and pod formation is to analyze the relationships of leaf area index (LAI), above-ground dry matter (ADM), leaf area duration (LAD) and crop growth rate (CGR) around flowering with flower number and pod/flower ratio. For this objective, an experiment was conducted at Agricultural Research Station of Gonbad, ...
