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 ...

This experiment was carried out during the two growing seasons 2012/2013 and 2013/2014 at the experimental farm of Unit for Strawberry and Non Traditional Horticulture Crops, Horticulture Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Ain Shams University, Egypt, in order to investigate the effect of magnetic field on germination of true potato seeds (TPS), vegetative growth and potato tubers characterist...

ABSTRACT- Field experiments were conducted to determine the relationship between plant leaf area as the dependent variable with leaves number, leaf dry weight, and total vegetative components dry weight and plant height as the independent variables. Treatments were two tillage systems (conventional and no-tillage) as main plots, and seven sowing dates (11 May, 18 May, 25 May, 1...

in order to study the sink-source physiological relationship, current photosynthesis, contribution and remobilization of assimilates to grain yield in wheat and triticale genotypes, a field experiment was conducted in iran, ahvaz area on 2003-4. treatments were two bread wheat (simareh and tawer), one durum wheat (showa) and two triticale (juvanillo92 and line 45) genotypes. grain weight change...

in order to investigate the effect of high density and depth of planting on agronomic characteristic of saffron, a field experiment was conducted as a complete randomized block design with three replications in faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran during two growing seasons of 2008-2009 and 2009-2010. treatments were six levels of high densities (8, 11, 13, 16, 19 and 21...

with increasing the world population, and needing to feed it, the yield enhancement of cereals crops is of the most important approaches meet this target, which is achieved via identifying the effective factors underlay yield of cereals like wheat. this experiment was conducted to evaluate the grain yield and its association with some contributed traits in a doubled-haploid (dh) wheat populatio...

to evaluate growth characteristics and adaptation of new asian pear cultivars (pyrus serotina rehd.) in iran, some growth characteristics and physiological factors of nine asian pear cultivars named ‘ks’6, ‘ks’7, ‘ks’8, ‘ks’9, ‘ks’10, ‘ks’11, ‘ks’12, ‘ks’13, ‘ks’14 and one european, present commercial cultivar ‘shahmiveh’ of iran (control) were evaluated under the climatic conditions of tehran ...

to determine the effect of n-fertilizer on nitrogen harvest index (nhi), crop production and growth indices of corn (s.c.704 cultivar), an experiment was conducted with five nitrogen rates (100, 140, 180, 220 and 260 kg n/ha) in a randomly complete block design in four replicates. the effect of n-fertilizer rates on variation of grain yield, number of kernels, 1000-kernel weight, nitrogen harve...
