[ 1 ] - Phenotypic Variation of Indigenous Sesame landraces in Urmia Climate

    Sesame is one of the oldest and most important oilseeds in Iran and the world due to its nutritional value. In the present study, 25 sesame landraces collected from different regions of the country were evaluated in terms of phenological, morphological and physiological traits in Urmia climate. The ANOVA results showed that there was a statistically significant difference between the landra...

[ 2 ] - Use of Selection Indices for Improving Grain Yield in Sesame Local Populations

The selection of genotypes based on multiple traits is a fundamental issue and an important part of the process of plant breeding. In the present study, the efficiency of selection indices based on phenological, morphological and physiological traits was studied to improve sesame grain yield. The evaluation of 25 sesame populations was realized in a completely randomized design with 10 replicat...

[ 3 ] - Phenotyping, association analysis and annotation of genes related to leaf wilting of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) at the seedling stage under drought stress conditions

Rapid screening of plant germplasm in the early stages of growth and determining the genetic basis of wheat leaf wilting index at the seedling stage is necessary for wheat breeding programs. In the present research, leaf wilting index for 290 Iranian bread wheat genotypes, including; 90 cultivars and 200 landraces were studied under drought stress conditions at the seedling stage in 2021 in res...
