Aim of study: Improvement barley cultivars for malting traits suffers from narrow genetic pool in these traits. Landraces are resources that could be used this purpose. The present study was conducted to determine the variation quality within a Turkish landrace. Area undertaken Tokat, province Black Sea Region Turkey. Material and methods: Twenty-five diverse lines, out 42 unique genotypes prev...

to study the effects of used water in evapotranspiration, seed number per unit area and leaf relative water content on seed weight of canola (brassica napus l.), an experiment was conducted as a randomized complete block design, arranged in a split-plot under two conditions, i.e. supplemental irrigation and rainfed in 2005-7. two cultivars of canola (‘hyola401’ and ‘rgs003’) as subplots were gr...

Background & Aim: This experiment investigated the effect of foliar application of methanol and ethanol on the biomass yield of medicinal plant Echinacea purpurea. Purple coneflower is an herbaceous perennial in the Asteraceae family that is used in therapy of respiratory tract infection and bacterial otitis. Experimental: This experiment was conducted in randomized complete ...

Cereal crop yield is determined by different yield components such as seed weight, seed number per spike and the tiller number and spikes. Negative correlations between these traits are often attributed to resource limitation. However, recent evidence suggests that the same genes or regulatory modules can regulate both inflorescence branching and tillering. It is therefore important to explore ...

Assessment of genetic variability of plant core germplasm is needed for efficient germplasm utilization in breeding improvement. A total of 391 accessions of a flax core collection, which preserves the variation present in the world collection of 3,378 accessions maintained by Plant Gene Resources of Canada (PGRC) and represents a broad range of geographical origins, different improvement statu...

in order to study effect of seed weight on germination and growth of wheat seedling, an experiment in seed technology laboratory of aboureihan paradise university of tehran in 2005 has been done. in this experiment, at first stage, the seeds separated by longitude step, latitude step and set frequency parameters of gravity separator set. in second stage, 10 treatments of 1000 seed weight entere...

in order to evaluate times and rate applications of zinc fertilizer on quantity and quality of faba bean, an experiment was carried out to form factorial in randomized of complete block design with four replications at farm research of gonbad kavous university during 2009 – 2010. two times of application were including before flowering and beginning of pod setting and five rates of application ...
