Root traits confer grain yield advantages under terminal drought in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
Chickpea, the second most important legume crop, suffers major yield losses by terminal drought stress (DS). Stronger root system is known to enhance drought yields but this understanding remains controversial. To understand precisely the root traits contribution towards yield, 12 chickpea genotypes with well-known drought response were field evaluated under drought and optimal irrigation. Root...
متن کاملEvaluation of Grain-Quality Related Traits of F5 Lines of Wheat under Terminal Drought Stress Conditions
Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Drought stress is the most prevalent and limiting factor in the growth and productivity of crop plants. According to the challenge of deficiency in precipitation or consecutive droughts in recent years in Iran and as a result of a shortage of irrigation water in wheat production, knowledge of the relationship between grain quality and grain yield ...
متن کاملShoot traits and their relevance in terminal drought tolerance of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
Chickpea is the second most important legume crop largely grown under semi-arid tropics where terminal drought is one of the major constraints for its productivity. A trait-based selection had been considered more beneficial in drought tolerance breeding to overcome the environmental influence on drought yields. Large number of traits had been suggested in literature, with less indication on th...
متن کاملEffect of Drought Stress and Zn Fertilizer on Some Root Characteristics of Chickpea Cultivars
Objective: Drought stress is most important factor which reduce root and shoot growth in crops. This study was performed in order to evaluate the effects of drought stress and Zn fertilizer on root traits of four cultivars of chickpea. Methods: Experiment was laid out in a split plot-factorial using randomized complete block design with three replications. Drought stress treatment stand in main...
متن کاملPhysiological traits related to drought tolerance in Brassica
Physiological basis of genetic variability in drought response and its association with yieldand related indices is not clear in Brassica. In this study 36 accessions belonged to sevenspecies of Brassica were evaluated under normal, moderate and severe stress environments.Physiological traits along with seed yield, seed yield components, oil content and two selectionindices (stress tolerance in...
