Macro- And Micromineral Contents Of Different Quinoa (Chenopodium Quinoa Willd.)Varieties Used As Forage By Cattle, Mustafa Tan
Macro- And Micromineral Contents Of Different Quinoa (Chenopodium Quinoa Willd.)Varieties Used As Forage By Cattle, Mustafa Tan
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
Mineral deficiencies or mineral excess affect livestock production in most regions of the world. For this reason, it is important to know the mineral contents of forages used in animal feeding. Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.), which has become a popular grain crop around the world in recent years, is used as forage in animal feeding. This study was carried out to determine the contents of macro- and microminerals and mineral balance in 9 different quinoa varieties. The results of the study indicated that mineral contents of forages show great variation between quinoa varieties. The Cherry Vanilla variety is rich in …

Sowing time is an important factor affecting crop yield and quality, especially in arid and semi-arid regions. The aim of this research was to investigate the effects of sowing time on the growth, yield, and quality of rapeseed genotypes and to determine genotype × sowing time interactions for grain yield and its related traits. The study was carried out using 8 winter rapeseed genotypes (H604049, H604038, H604041, Viking, Elan, Titan, Lorenz, and Trabant) and 4 sowing times (10 October, 20 October, 30 October and 10 November) during the 2005-2006 and 2006-2007 growing seasons. An NIRS system was used to determine …

The effect of various physio-biochemical parameters on the water use efficiency (WUE) of grape varieties, rootstocks and budded vines was studied in 3 separate experiments at 3 levels of irrigation (100%, 50% and no irrigation) for 14 days of stress cycle. None of the varieties or rootstocks could survive beyond 4 days under the no irrigation treatment. Considerable genetic variability was observed for WUE with respect to photosynthetic rate, transpiration rate, stomatal conductance, root to shoot length ratio, abscisic acid, zeatin riboside, carbon isotope discrimination etc. among grape rootstocks, viz., Dogridge, 1613 C, Salt Creek, St. George and Vitis champinii …
