Evaluation of agronomic performances of rainfed barley double-haploids (DHs) lines under semi-arid conditions

Varibility of yield and other plant characteristics of barley under irrigated and rainfed conditions

Genetic Variation and Agronomic Evaluation of Chickpea Cultivars for Grain Yield and Its Components Under Irrigated and Rainfed Growing Conditions

Water deficit is an important factor limiting crop growth all over the world. In order to evaluate genetic variation, heritability and the interrelationship between agronomic traits, twenty chickpea genotypes were cultivated in two separated randomized complete block experiments with three replications under normal irrigated and rainfed conditions. The experiments were carried out at the Agricu...

Determination of QTLs Associated with Agronomic and Physiological Traits under Normal and Salinity Conditions in Barley

mapping the QTLs of agronomic and physiological traits, 149 double haploid (DH) lines from a cross between an Australian cultivar, Clipper (salt susceptible), and an Algerian landrace, Sahara3771 (salt tolerant), were evaluated under natural saline (Yazd Station, ECsoil=10-12.8 ds/m and ECwater= 9-10 ds/m) and normal (Karaj Station, ECsoil and ECwater ~2-2.5 ds/m) environments. There were remar...

Carbon losses by tillage under semi-arid Mediterranean rainfed agriculture (SW Spain)

Conservation tillage has been promoted as a solution to counteract constraints caused by intensive agriculture. In this work the effects of two conservation tillage systems, reduced tillage (RT) and no-tillage (NT) were compared to the traditional tillage (TT) in a long(15 years, RT) and short-term experiment (3 years, NT). Both experiments were carried out under semi-arid, rainfed agriculture ...
