To study the effects of plant density and species on forage and grain yield of Vicia sp., anexperiment was conducted in College of Agriculture, University of Lorestan, under dry farming conditions during 2007-2008 growing season. Three levels of plant density at 100, 150 and 200 seed per square meter along with three species of Vicia including Vicia narbonensis, Vicia sativa and Vicia dasycarp...

In order to study the effect of zinc (Zn) nutrition on relative tolerance of olive (Olea europea L.) seedlings to salinity, a factorial pot experiment was conducted, based on completely randomized design with three replications, during fall 2013. One-year seedlings of two olive cultivars (‘Frontoio’ and ‘Conservolea’) were planted in 10-litre plastic pots containing sand and perlite (1:1 ratio)...

abstract chickpea is weak in competition of weeds that damages to it at between 40 t0 60 percent. kermanshah province is one of the most important region for chickpea fields in iran. for these reosons, weed management is necessary in this crop. in order to evaluate of herbicides and stubble control on broad leave weeds control in chickpea. experiment was conducted in agricultural research stat...

In order to investigate the effects of sowing date on yield and some agronomic traits of six forage maize hybrids, two experiments were conducted in 2009 in two locations including Rasht and Fuman. The experimental design was randomized complete blocks with factorial arrangement and three replications. Treatments consisted of three levels of sowing date (31 May, 13 and 26 June) and six maize hy...

In order to investigate genetic diversity and heritability of some morphological traits in five bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars, two separate experiments were conducted based on randomized compeletly blocks design (RCBD) with 3 replications under stress and normal conditions. The results showed that differences between cultivars were significant for the majority of traits in both c...

In the current investigation, 10 IRAP, 14 REMAP, 16 ISSR and 7 SSR primers and mixed linear model (MLM)-based association analysis were used to identify molecular markers associated with 13 morphological traits in cultivated alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.). Morphological traits studied, were height, chlorophyll content, total wet weight, total dry weight, wet leaf weight, dry leaf weight, wet stem...
