    Effect of seed size (small, medium and large) on germination and seedling growth of triticale (xTriticosecale Witm. cv. Presto) at the different osmotic potential of NaCl and PEG solutions weredetermined in the present study. Germination tests were conducted under five osmotic potential levels (-0.45, -0.77, -1.03, -1.44 MPa, and Control) of PEG 6000 and NaCl. Germination percentage (%) at 4 and 8th days and also seedling growth traits such as root and shoot length (mm), dry root and shoot weight (mg), root : shoot length (R:S) ratio, and relative water content of shoot (RWC, %) were investigated inthis study. The results indicated that decreases in the osmotic potentials caused a reduction in germination percentage and seedling growth. It was seen that drought created by PEG 6000 had morenegative effects on germination and seedling growth than that of NaCl. In consequence, the total germinability and seedling growth were higher in large seeds rather than in small seeds in control solution and under osmotic stress. In addition, it was observed that seedlings obtained from larger seeds survived even at the lower osmotic potential of PEG and NaCl; whereas, seedling obtained from small seeds did not survive in the intensive stress

    and yield components for wheat cultivars during 2004-2006 at one site in Van Province in Eastern Turkey. Grain yield and yield components were found to positively correlate with coleoptile length, with marked declines observed in grain yield and yield components among varieties with shorter coleoptiles in deepest sowing. Wheat sown at 5 cm gave greater yields than wheat sown at 3, 7 and 9 cm by 19.9, 22.3 and 62.5%, respectively. The highest grain yield (2.98 T ha-1) was obtained with the Alparslancultivar sown at a depth of 5 cm. Grain yield of all varieties tested was drastically reduced when sown at depths of 9 cm, with the exception of the local Tir and Alparslan varieties, both of which, when compared to the other varieties tested, had longer coleoptiles

    2-s2.0-85098055901The occurrence of mealybug species, Ferrisa dasylirii (Cockerell) (Hemiptera: Pseudococcidae) was first reported in Indonesia. It was found on Durio zibethinus Murray (Malvaceae), Gliricidia sepium (Jacq.) (Fabaceae), Hibiscus spp. (Malvaceae), Psidium guajava L. (Myrtaceae), Solanum torvum Swartz (Solanaceae), and Theobroma cacao L. (Malvaceae) at some regencies in Bengkulu Province, Southern Sumatra, Indonesia. © 2020, Penerbit Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia.

    This research was conducted to determine the effects of different sowing rates (450, 550 and 650 seed m -2) and sowing methods (sowing to the rows, broadcasting to seeding depth and contrary rows with 90°) on weeds, grain yield and some yield components of wheat local "Tir" variety (Triticum aestivum L. ssp vulgare Vill. v. leucospermum Körn) under dryland condition of Van in 2006-07 and 2008-09 winter growing seasons. It was found that contrary rows with 90° unaffected to reduce weeds density but it was highly effective sowing methods to decrease weeds biomass. However, higher seeding rates, in the current study, reduced insignificantly weeds density, but it reduced weed biomass. In the current study, sowing methods and seeding rates significantly affected grain yields and yields components. The highest grain yield was obtained 650 seed m -2 and sowing to contrary rows with 90°. © Ankara Üniversitesi Ziraat Fakültesi

    PubMedID: 26249973Dysmicoccus lavandulae Germain, Matile-Ferrero & Williams n. sp. is described and illustrated, and its DNA sequences given. The species lives on Lavandula x intermedia, the cultivated form of lavender grown in the French region of Provence. In addition the mealybug species recorded in France on indigenous lavender are listed. The status of two related genera, Trionymus Berg and Dysmicoccus Ferris, is discussed.
