Characteristics of Iron Tolerant Rice Lines Developed at IRRI under Field Conditions

Evaluation of Rice Promising Lines for Resistance to Striped Stem Borer in Field Conditions

   In this study, the mechanism of resistance to striped stem borer was investigated in 10 rice genotypes and at different levels of nitrogen fertilizer. In addition, the relationship between some quantitative and qualitative traits of rice genotypes was evaluated with the resistance to striped stem borer.This experiment was conducted as split plot based on randomized complete block design with...

study of rice (oryza sativa l.) lines tolerant to heat stress of irri by using multivariate statistical methods

background and objectives: evaluation of the grain yield and yield components and also morphological traits can help to identify strategies for selection of resistant cultivars and increased crop yield production under heat stress condition. to this end, in experiment to evaluate of grain yield and yield components on 42 rice lines tolerant to heat stress from international rice research instit...

Genetic diversity of Iranian rice recombinant inbred lines at the reproductive stage in normal conditions and salinity

Salinity is an important limiting factor in the production of more plants, including rice. Due to the limited amount of cultivated area, identification of tolerant genotypes to environmental stresses and especially salinity is very important. The aim of this study was to investigate the genetic diversity among 114 recombinant lines derived from the intersection of local Tarom × Khazar cultivars...

Effects of Rhizobacteria on iron uptake and root iron plaque formation in lowland rice under conditions of iron toxicity

Marker-assisted Backcrossing for Identification of Salt Tolerant Rice Lines

SSR or microsatellite markers are proved to be ideal for making genetic maps, assisting selection and studying genetic diversity in germplasm. SSR markers are playing important role to identify gene for salt tolerance that can be helpful for plant breeders to develop new cultivars. The experiment was conducted during the period from July 2009 to November 2010 in the experimental field and Biote...
