intercropping is considered as a method for increasing yield per unit and stability. in order to evaluate the effects of phosphorous biofertilizer and chemical phosphorous on fodder quality of corn (zea mays l.) and grass pea (lathyrus sativa l.) intercropping, two field experiments were conducted as factorial based on randomized complete block design with four replications at two places simult...

effects of seed priming by salicylic acid on some morpho-physiologic characteristics and yield of cowpea (vigna unguiculata l.) cultivar “parastou” was investigated under water deficit. experiment was conducted as a split block design with 3 replications in 2008-2009 at research farm of zanjan university. factors were including drought stress as a main factor in 2 levels (irrigation, water defi...

two field experiments were conducted at the research farm of the faculty of agriculture, university of tabriz, iran during 2009-2010 and 2010-2011, to evaluate the response of fennel (foeniculum vulgare l.) landraces to limited irrigation. experiments were arranged as split plot based on randomized complete block design in three replications with irrigation treatments (irrigation after 60, 90, ...

to investigate the effects of sowing date on yield and quality of six forage maize cultivars in rasht region, a field study was conducted in 2010. the experimental design was a randomized complete block using a factorial arrangement with three replications. treatments consisted of four levels of sowing date (22 may, 3, 15 and 25 june), and six maize cultivars (sc 260, dc 370, sc 500, sc 647, sc...

Water shortage is one of the most important environmental stresses in Mediterranean regions. Poor seedling quality may account for the failure of oak regeneration. To determine the best seed origin of Quercus brantii, we investigated on seedlings collected from 20 mother trees in the Zagros Mountain forests 700 to 2200 m altitudes above sea level. Seedlings from different altitudes were irrig...

In this study, two genotypes from the white clover breeding line ‘Syrian selection’, which demonstrates improved survival in summer drought, and two from the white clover cultivar ‘Grasslands Kopu’, a more drought-sensitive cultivar, are compared in terms of their responses to a water deficit. Plants of each genotype were grown in a temperature-controlled glasshouse and a water deficit imposed ...

abstract in order to study the effect of different water potential on anethum graveolens two experiments were conducted for germination and vegetative stages. this study was carried out as a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with three replications. in the first experiment, response of dill seeds germination to levels of drought stress including to drought potentials ze...
