In order to assessment of grain yield and some of morphological characters in safflower genotypes under irrigated and rainfed conditions fifteen spring safflower genotypes were studied using two separate experiments based on randomized complete block design with three replications in 2010-2011 growing season at Miandoab Research Station, Iran. Analysis of variance for each conditions revealed s...

A major source of photoassimilates deposited into the seeds is the closest photosynthetic source to the latter sinks. While the contribution made to grain yield by floral parts and the adjacent photosynthetic surfaces has been determined for a number of crop plants, such information lacks regarding safflower. Thus the present study was aimed at estimating the contribution of photosynthesis of s...

In order to study the effects of different levels of nitrogen fertilizer and plant density on grain yield and its components in sunflower, an experiment was conducted using 'Record' cultivar at the Research Farm of College of Agriculture, Isfahan University of Technology in 1996. Four levels of nitrogen (0, 75, 150 and 225 kg/ha) and four plant densities (65000, 75000, 85000 and 95000 plants/ha...

This experiment was conducted to determine the effects of time and rate of nitrogen fertilizer (urea) application on yield and yield components and quality of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L. )cv.Euroflor. A field experiment was carried out at College of Agriculture, Shiraz University during Summer 2009. The experimental design was a factorial based on a randomized complete block design with 3 ...

In order to study the effect of irrigation withholding and biofertilizers application on quantitative and qualitative yield and grain filling duration of sunflower (Helianthus annus L.), a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications in research field of Faculty of Agriculture and Natural Resources, University of Mohaghegh Ardabili, Iran i...

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effects of plant density on yield and yield components of different safflower cultivars. For this purpose, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design was conducted with four replication and two factors included cultivar (Esfahan, Goldasht and Sofeh) and plant density (40, 65 and 90 plants/m2). Results showed the main effect o...
