Comparison between conventional and organic weed management: growth and yield of leek (Allium porrum L.)
(2012)Leek is a weak competitor against weeds. A field experiment was conducted to determine the effects of herbicides and mulching on weed flora, growth and yield of a leek crop. A randomized complete block design was employed ... -
Effect of different hydropriming times on the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
(2011)In dry land areas of the western half of Iran, chickpea due to exposure to rotation with wheat and barley play an important role in maintaining survival of agriculture in these regions. Seed priming is a simple and cheap ... -
The effect of different irrigation techniques on plant performance and seed quality in relation to fruit maturation and storage of different genotypes of pepper (Capsicum annuum var. annuum L.)
(2007)The effects of irrigation techniques on the plant performance and fruit yield of three cultivars of pepper (Tomatopepper, California Wonder, Pi-14) and a hybrid (Spartacus) pepper were studied. In particular, the irrigation ... -
FIBER SORGHUM BIOMASS YIELD, WATER USE EFFICIENCY AND ECONOMIC RESULTS UNDER DIFFERENT LEVELS OF WATER, USING SUBSURFACE AND SURFACE IRRIGATION SYSTEMS
(2009)In 2007, an attempt was made to study the biomass production and the economic results of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench, variety H 132), growing in Greece, under two different irrigation methods, surface and subsurface, ... -
Improving vegetable quality in controlled environments
(2018)During the last decades, food security has become a vital global concern driven by projections of population increase and exacerbated by the impending pressure of climate change on agriculture. Vegetable crops represent a ... -
Line selection for exploiting durum wheat (T-turgidum L. var. durum) local landraces in modern variety development program
(2005)Pure line selection for grain yield applied within four durum wheat local landraces (Triticum turgidum L. var durum) was studied in an effort to determine: (i) the agronomic performance of selected line mixtures (bulks) ... -
MAIZE AND LEGUMES ROOT GROWTH AND YIELD AS INFLUENCED BY ORGANIC FERTILIZATION, UNDER MEDITERRANEAN ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
(2012)Field experiments were conducted to determine the effects of green manures on growth and yield of maize crop. This study also evaluated the effects of two different composts on nitrogen fixation and growth of legume crops. ... -
Performance of cotton F-1 hybrids and its relation to the mean yield of advanced bulk generations
(1999)The performance of intraspecific (Gossypium hirsutum) and interspecific (G. hirsutum x G. barbadense) F-1 cotton hybrids and its correlation with the mean yield of advanced bulk generations was assessed under Greek ... -
Soft computing technique of fuzzy cognitive maps to connect yield defining parameters with yield in cotton crop production in central Greece as a basis for a decision support system for precision agriculture application
(2010)This work investigates the yield and yield variability prediction in cotton crop. Cotton crop management is a complex process with interacting parameters like soil, crop and weather factors. The soft computing technique ...
