in thirty-three wild cherry (prunus avium l.) accessions from central serbia, tree, leaf, fruit, and stone morphological characters were evaluated during three consecutive years. the goal was to detect relationships between the genotypes and to identify the most useful traits for discrimination among them. the study revealed a high variability in the set of the evaluated wild cherry accessions ...

this research which aims to survey the relation between tobacco leaf yield and its components is done by using 118 varieties of tobacco in a research farm of guilan tobacco research institute. regarding to five random selections of plants, twenty three traits of each variety were evaluated. correlation between dry matter of leaf yield with plant height, stem diameter, leaf length, leaf width, l...

foliar analysis of natural deciduous tree species of basswood (tilia americana l.) (ba), american beech (acer grandifolia enrh) (be), and white ash (fraxinus americana l.) (wa) was carried out in 1994 in southern quebec. the diagnosis and recommendation integrated system (dris) was developed from the traditional method to find the preliminary norm and indices of n, p, k, ca, and mg for the ...

this research was designed to identify garlic (allium sativum l.) bolting clones and determining the relationship between their morphological traits and bolting capacity by using statistical methods of analysis of variance, comparison of means, correlation coefficients, factor analysis, stepwise regression, path analysis and cluster analysis. traits including flowering ability, number, length a...

abstract in order to determine the time of maximum demand of winter wheat (triticum aestivum l.) to phosphorous fertilizers and p and zinc (zn) distribution in different parts of wheat at various growth stages and study their relation to the contents of these elements in soil p and zn under field conditions, samples were collected from different parts of the plants at seven growth stages (i.e.,...

The experimental fatigue life prediction of leaf springs is a time consuming process. The engineers working in the field of leaf springs always face a challenge to formulate alternate methods of fatigue life assessment. The work presented in this paper provides alternate methods for fatigue life assessment of leaf springs. A 65Si7 light commercial vehicle leaf spring is chosen for this study. T...

Leaf senescence constitutes the last stage of leaf development in plants and proceeds through a highly regulated program in order to redistribution of micro- and macro-nutrients from the senescing leaves to the developing/growing plant organs. Initiation and progression of leaf senescence is accompanied by massive sequential alterations at various levels of leaf biology including leaf morpholog...
