Item Efficacy evaluation of sulfosulfuron, metsulfuron-methyl plus sulfosulfuron, mesosulfuron-methyl plus ıodosulfuron-methyl and ıodosulfuron plus mesosulfuron herbicides in winter wheat (triticum aestivum L.)(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2013) Malekian, Babak; Ghadiri, Hossein; Kazemeini, Seyed Abdolreza; Edalat, MohsenIn order to investigate the effect of sulfosulfuron, metsulfuron-methyl plus sulfosulfuron, mesosulfuron-methyl plus iodosulfuronmethyl and iodosulfuron plus mesosulfuron on weed control and wheat biological and grain yield, a two-year field experiment was conducted in Shiraz, Iran, during 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 growing seasons. The experimental design was randomized complete blocks with four replications. Treatments were sulfosulfuron at 18, 20.25 and 22.5 g a.i. ha -1 , metsulfuron-methyl plus sulfosulfuron at 28, 32 and 36 g a.i. ha -1 , mesosulfuron-methyl plus iodosulfuron-methyl at 14.4, 18 and 21.6 g a.i. ha -1 , iodosulfuron plus mesosulfuron at 18, 24 and 30 g a.i. ha -1 and two weedy and weed free checks. Compared with the weedy check, application of herbicides in both growing seasons reduced weed biomass and increased wheat biological and grain yield. Among herbicide treatments, metsulfuron-methyl plus sulfosulfuron at 36 g a.i. ha -1 reduced weed dry matter by 98. 6% and 97.55% in 2011-2012 and 2012-2013, respectively, and the lowest weed dry matter was observed with this treatment. In both years, maximum wheat biological yield was obtained in weed free check that was not significantly different from metsulfuron-methyl plus sulfosulfuron at 36 g a.i. ha -1 . The highest wheat grain yield was obtained with metsulfuron-methyl plus sulfosulfuron at 36 g a.i. ha -1.Item Impact of sowing date and tillage method on morphophysiological traits and yield of corn(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2017-04-05) Zaremohazabieh, Sara; Kazemeini, Seyed Abdolreza; Ghadiri, Hossein; Edalat, MohsenEnvironmental variations related with different sowing dates have an altering effect on the growth and development of corn plants. A field experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of sowing date and tillage method on corn growth and yield. The treatments included two tillage systems (conventional and no tillage) and seven sowing dates (11-May, 18-May, 25-May, 1-Jun, 8- Jun, 15-Jun and 22-Jun). The interaction between tillage method and sowing date showed that the highest kernel yield (KY), biological yield (BY) and harvest index (HI) were observed at first sowing date and conventional tillage method and the lowest KY, HI and BY were obtained in no-tillage method and latest sowing date in both years. Delay in sowing from 11-May to 22-Jun decreased significantly the plant height, leaf number, leaf area index and yield by 6.43, 7.98, 17.36 and 42.7% in 2014 and 7.93, 8.87, 14.88 and 40.01% in 2015, respectively. The highest crop growth rate (CGR) was observed in conventional tillage (56 and 49 (g day 1m -2 )) as compared to no-tillage (45.7 and 46.5(g day-1m -2 )) in 2014 and 2015, respectively. The leaf area index (LAI) had a positive and significant correlation with corn height, leaf number and yield.Item Modeling yield loss in a tripartite canola-cover crop-weed system under varying nitrogen and seeding rates(Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2016-03-07) Hamzehzarghani, Habiballah; Kazemeini, Seyed-Abdolreza; Edalat, MohsenPossible use of cereal cover crops as a sustainable alternative weed control option in canola fields through optimizing cover crop and its density in canola-weed-cover cropping tripartite systems was modeled using a gamma density function with four parameters. The effect of competition between main crop (canola), cover crop (wheat or barley) and weeds on canola yield was studied in an experiment conducted in 2012/2013. Each cover crop was sown in four seeding rates: 0, 25, 50 and 75 percent under two nitrogen rates of 75 and 150 kg ha-1 . Weed suppression measured as canola relative yield was associated with the increase of seeding rate of cover crop according to a modified gamma density function. Parameters alpha, kappa, eta and lambda summarized the effect of N application on yield response under no cover crop conditions, measure of treatment effect on the curve amplitude, the plant density at which crop yield maximizes and the curve slope at the right tail which was an indication of the treatment effect on the rate of yield reduction beyond the seeding rate that maximized the crop yield, respectively. Model diagnostics and agreement analysis showed that the modified gamma density function described the functional response of the main crop to seeding rate of the cover crop equally well across a variety of treatment effects. Response curve analysis showed that in both levels of nitrogen, canola yield was more responsive to barley as cover crop when compared to winter wheat.
