SELECTION FOR YIELD, KERNEL WEIGHT AND PROTEIN CONTENT IN EARLY GENERATIONS OF SIX WHEAT CROSSES

Recurrent Selection for Kernel Weight in Spring Wheat

reported grain yield increased 3.9 and 7.4% cycle 1, respectively, over two cycles of selection in barley Increasing kernel weight has been proposed as a method to increase (Hordeum vulgare L.). Durum wheat (Triticum turflour extraction in spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Recurrent selection was initiated to increase kernel weight while maintaining gidum L. var. durum) grain yield improved ...

Biplot Analysis of diallel crosses for yield and some morphological traits in durum wheat

Six varieties of durum wheat were included in a full diallel mating design during 2003-2004 and 2004-2005 cropping seasons in the farm of Maragheh Dryland Agricultural Research Institute (DARI), Iran. Parental durum wheat genotypes and their complete diallel progenies were grown in a randomized complete block design with two replications in the growing seasons of 2005-06. The highest values of ...

effect of seed priming and irrigation regimes on yield,yield components and quality of safflowers cultivars

این مطالعه در سال 1386-87 در آزمایشگاه و مزرعه پژوهشی دانشگاه صنعتی اصفهان به منظور تعیین مناسب ترین تیمار بذری و ارزیابی اثر پرایمینگ بر روی سه رقم گلرنگ تحت سه رژیم آبیاری انجام گرفت. برخی از مطالعات اثرات سودمند پرایمینگ بذر را بر روی گیاهان مختلف بررسی کرده اند اما در حال حاضر اطلاعات کمی در مورد خصوصیات مربوط به جوانه زنی، مراحل نموی، عملکرد و خصوصیات کمی و کیفی بذور تیمار شده ژنوتیپ های م...

Heritability and correlation of grain yield and its components in F2 plants of ten six-rowed barley crosses

Valuations of Variables as Selection Index for Improving Grain Yield in Bread Wheat

Identifying selection indices is the most important step of a breeding project that aims to improve grain yield. The definition of the selection index is usually done by evaluating the variables in multivariate statistical methods. In the present study, the relationship between grain yield and its components in bread wheat genotypes was determined by multivariate statistical methods. The experi...
