maize hybrids performance under differing irrigation regimes: ii. grain yield, components and water use efficiency

چکیده
scarce water resources is a worldwide problem, still for iran, a country predominated by an arid and semi-arid climate, water limitation is more severe than for many other areas of the world. a field experiment was conducted to investigate the impact of irrigation regimes on growth, grain yield and irrigation water use efficiency in maize (zea maize l.) in 2006 at the research farm, college of agriculture, isfahan university of technology, using a 3-replicate split-plot rcbd. four irrigation regimes (i1, i2, i3, i4) constituted the main plots and four corn hybrids (sc 704, sc700, sc500 and tc647) served as subplots. despite harvest index, grain and biological yield and yield components differed among hybrids and irrigation regimes. treatment i4 produced the lowest grain (7670 kg ha-1) biological yield (16650 kg ha-1) and irrigation water use efficiency for both grain (0.98 kgm3) and biological yield (1.42 kgm3), compared to other irrigation regimes. sc700 outperformed other hybrids in terms of grain (11220 kgha-1) and biological yield (23450 kgha-1). it seems that, at least with the present study, since seed/head was more correlated to grain yield than the rest of components, knowing physiological bases of seed set variation of maize under drought stresss helps to improve grain yield under latter conditions. furthermore, for conditions where access to irrigation water is a limiting factor, supplying the water during the more vulnerable growth stages is crucial for a more production efficiency.

Yield and water use efficiency of early potato grown under different irrigation regimes
Potato grown for early or off-season production plays a crucial role in the economy of several areas in the Mediterranean countries. Irrigation is important for determining yield and earliness, thus a better investigation of plant response under various pedo-climatic conditions can help to improve resource use efficiency and farmer income. A two-year field research (2009-2010) was carried o...

Sorghum grain yield can be significantly affected by climatic changes, especially drought and high temperature. The purpose of this study was to evaluate hybrids of grain sorghum grown under normal irrigation conditions or water stress in order to select those likely to be more tolerant of drought. Forty-nine hybrids were grown in a randomized block design experiment, with three replications. T...
