The development of transgenic soybean has produced numerous economic benefits; however the potential impact of root exudates upon soil ecological systems and rhizospheric soil microbial diversity has also received intensive attention. In the present study, the influence of saline-alkali tolerant transgenic soybean of betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase on bacterial community structure and soil phosp...

An experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Field Laboratory of Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh to assess the effect of weeding on growth, yield and yield contributing characters of mungbean (Vigna radiata L.) cv. BINA mung4 during October 2011 to February 2012. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with four replications. The trial comprised seven tre...

Much of the variation in soybean yield is associated with changes in pod number per plant, however physiological regulation of pod number is not well understood. Three determinate soybean cultivars, Hai339 (H339), Heinong35 (HN35) and Kennong18 (KN18) were grown for 2 years at 27 plants m in a field experiment and exposed to shading and light enrichment. The data of total soluble sugar (TSS) in...

Thirty genotypes of Dolichos bean (Lablab purpureus) were evaluated to study the genetic variability on yield, yield contributing and related characters viz. days to 50% flowering, days to first pod set, days to maturity, number of pods per cluster, pod length, width of pod, weight of 10 green pods, number of single podded clusters per plant, number of pods per plant and protein content. The ra...

identification of morphological, phenological and yield characteristics of genotypes is important in order to collect necessary information for available varieties and as a result selection of one or more specific traits. in this study, 73 kabuli chickpea genotypes from pulses seed bank of research center for plant sciences, ferdowsi university of mashhad, were planted in irrigated conditions a...

in order to study of genetic variation and identification of yield components in chickpea, a trial consists of 96 accessions of chickpea received from iranian gen bank (seed and plant improvement institute) along with five checks (arman, bivanij, jam, hashem and ilc-482) was conducted based on an augmented design in 2005-06 cropping season at research farm of agricultural college, razi universi...
