this study was aimed to assess the effects of excess boron on 59 genetically divergent wheat accessions and to identify those with high and stable yields under a range of soil boron concentrations. the second aim was to test the applicability of a laboratory technique performed at juvenile stages of development in estimating field boron tolerance. the study comprised a control and three boron t...

Aim. The aim was to find and characterize different breeding lines varieties of bread wheat according morphological features the stomatal apparatus for further study genetic patterns biogenesis. Methods. evaluated by method impressions from middle adaxial abaxial sides flag leaf. Films with prints were studied a light microscope under 100–200 total magnification. length width guard cell, pore, ...

accurate and nondestructive methods to determine individual leaf areas of plants are useful tools in physiological and agronomic research. a determination of the individual leaf area (la) of such species in brassicaceae family as red cabbage (brassica oleracea var. cappitata l. f. rabra), cabbage (brassica oleracea var. cappitata l. f. alba) and broccoli (brassica oleracea var. italica l.) ...

Genetic variability, correlation and path coefficients for fifteen agro-morphological traits were studied on 100 oat lines including two checks. Genotypic phenotypic of variation high leaf number per tiller weight panicle. Traits such as plant, tiller, panicle, stem width, individual plant yield, length internode thousand seed showed heritability accompanied by genetic advance indicating that t...

Spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L., cv. ‘Minaret’) was grown in open-top chambers and exposed to two CO2 concentrations (ambient and 680 ppmv) and two O3 concentrations (ambient and ambient +50 or +90 ppbv) either from anthesis onwards or for the entire growing season. The aim of the experiment was to test whether elevated CO2 could provide ‘protection’ to the crop against the damaging effects ...

to study the effects of below leaves excision and nitrogen application on stomatal characteristics of wheat flag leaf, grain protein, dry matter remobilization, grain yield and yield component, leaf area of winter wheat (t. aestivum cv. ghods) was artificially reduced under filed condition. the experimental design was a factorial on a rcb with 3 replications, a combination of three levels of de...

The effect of water stress on glutathione reductase and catalase activities was evaluated in leaf blades of field-grown winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Wheat was sown at two seeding rates under both irrigated and dryland conditions. Flag leaves from dryland plants sown at 60 kilograms/hectare showed no change in either glutathione reductase or catalase activities per unit leaf area, while ...

Increasing the yield potential of rice (Oryza sativa) is main objective breeders and cultivators engaged in improvement programs. Erect panicle (EP) generally high-yielding with...

The roles of the rice sucrose transporter, OsSUT1, have previously been examined in filling grain, germination, and early seedling growth. In the current work, the role that OsSUT1 plays in the transport of assimilate along the entire long-distance pathway, from the flag leaf blade to the base of the filling grain, was investigated. OsSUT1 promoter::GUS (beta-glucuronidase) reporter gene analys...
