Cultivar Mixture Cropping Increased Water Use Efficiency in Winter Wheat under Limited Irrigation Conditions

The effects of cultivar mixture cropping on yield, biomass, and water use efficiency (WUE) in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were investigated under non-irrigation (W0, no irrigation during growth stage), one time irrigation (W1, irrigation applied at stem elongation) and two times irrigation (W2, irrigation applied at stem elongation and anthesis) conditions. Nearly 90% of cultivar mixtur...

sepahan, a new bread wheat cultivar

sepahan is a new bread wheat cultivar derived from progenies of a cross made between azadi cultivar and some high yielding and resistant to rust advanced lines. all selections were made in kelardasht and iranshahr stations and early evaluations in karaj. it was also studied in regional uniform yield trials in moderate stations including kaboutar abad. results revealed that this line is more tol...

Combining Ability in Winter Wheat

Knowledge of quantitative genetic parameters is crucial in allocating resources for different steps of multistage selection programs. The main objective of the present study was to investigate the magnitude of variance of general combining ability (GCA) and specifi c combining ability (SCA) effects and their interaction with environments in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). We used four data sets (...
