Evaluation of Grain Yield, Agronomical Traits and Drought Tolerance Indices in Some Bread Wheat Cultivars
Authors
Abstract:
In order to study genetic variation and effect of drought stress on grain yield, some agronomical traits and 13 drought tolerance indices, an experiment was conducted on nine cultivars at Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman research field. The experimental layout was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications under two complementary irrigation and dryland conditions. Results indicated that cultivars and environment treatments significantly affect the yield and the most of the other evaluated traits. Significant reduction was found in grain yield, flag leaf area and seed weight as a result of the drought. According to the results of drought indices and cultivars distribution in biplot, STS, YI, HARM, STI, MP and GMP are the most suitable indices. According to these results, Mahdavi, Kavir and Roushan are tolerant drought cultivars. Therefore, these cultivars can be introduced as a right candidate for the next breeding programs.

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Wheat is one of the most important crops in the world that plays a key role in ensuring food security. In wheat breeding programs, selection of genotypes with desirable agronomic traits and high yield potential have always been the goal of plant breeders. Increasing the selection efficiency for grain yield depends on genetic knowledge from morpholo...

Moldavian balm (Dracocephalum moldavica L.) is a medicinal plant belongs to the Lamiaceae family, which is used as stomachic, sedative and healing of wound. Drought stress is one of the most important factors limiting the growth and production of crops and affects on plants at different levels. In order to study the effect of drought stress on some agronomical traits of 14 ecotypes of Dracoceph...

Post-anthesis drought stress is the most important problem affecting wheat production in dryland fields, specially in Mediterranean regions. The main objective of this research was to evaluate drought tolerance indices in dryland wheat genotypes under post-anthesis drought stress. The research was including two different experiments. In each experiment, twenty dryland bread wheat genotypes were...

To evaluate drought tolerance in bread wheat, tritipyrum and triticale genotypes, 27 different genotypes were grown as a randomized complete block design under two irrigation regimes (control and drought) in two locations (Isfahan and Shiraz) during two growing seasons (2016 and 2017). Based on grain yield, several indices including stress tolerance index (STI), tolerance index (TOL), susceptib...

One of the possible ways to ensure future food needs of an increasing world population involves the better water use through the development of crop varieties which need less water and are more tolerant to drought. In order to study the response of twenty landraces of bread wheat to drought stress, an experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications under t...
