Adaptation of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) to high temperatures could be improved by introducing alien genes from wild relatives. We evaluated the responses of wheat-Leymus racemosus chromosome introgression lines to high temperature to determine their potentiality for developing improved wheat cultivars. Introgression lines and their parent Chinese Spring were evaluated in a growth chamber at ...

Leymus mollis (Trin.) Pilger (NsNsXmXm, 2n = 28), a wild relative of common wheat, possesses many traits that are potentially valuable for wheat improvement. In order to exploit and utilize the useful genes of L. mollis, we developed a multiple alien substitution line, 10DM50, from the progenies of octoploid Tritileymus M842-16 x Triticum durum cv. D4286. Genomic in situ hybridization analysis ...

this study was conducted to evaluate genetic diversity of durum wheat cultivars using multivariate analyses on agronomic and morphological traits. thirty genotypes were planted in a randomized complete block design with three replications in 2003. agronomic and morphological characteristics including days to flowering, days to pollination, days to maturity, plant height, spike length, grain wei...

to investigate the influence of salinity and calcium (ca) on some properties of plantago ovata, a pot factorialexperiment based on randomized complete block design with three replicates was conducted in jiroft, south of kermanprovince, iran. three salinity levels of 0, 100 and 200 mm nacl and ca levels of 0, 5 and 10 mm calcium nitrate wereapplied as the first and second factors, respectively. ...

abstract in order to evaluate the effect of testa on reduction of fungal growth and aflatoxin b1 producthon, ten cultivars of pistachio were collected from different parts of pistachio belt i-e rafsanjan, damghan and ghazvin of iran. a section of testa and one mm of endosperm were scraped. 20 gr. of wounded kernels and 20 gr. of unwounded kernels were surface sterilized and then placed in petri...

the new cereal, primary tritipyrum lines, is an artificial hexaploeid wheat (2n=6x=42, aabbebeb) from crossing between triticum durum (2n=4x=28, aabb) and thinopyrum bessarabicum (2n=2x=14, ebeb) species. in this study the salt tolerant potencial of new primary tritipyrum lines for nacl (0, 100, 200 mm) in an hydroponic experiment was studied in a completely randomized split plot design with th...

in order to locate qtls controlling some agronomic traits associated to drought stress and to determine their relationships with grain yield, an experiment was conducted at the research farm, college of agriculture, university of zabol in 2011. the experiment was arranged in two complete block designs with 3 replications. 72 barley double haploid lines including their parents (steptoe×morex) we...

To investigate the influence of salinity and calcium (Ca) on some properties of Plantago ovata, a pot factorialexperiment based on randomized complete block design with three replicates was conducted in Jiroft, south of KermanProvince, Iran. Three salinity levels of 0, 100 and 200 mM NaCl and Ca levels of 0, 5 and 10 mM Calcium nitrate wereapplied as the first and second factors, respectively. ...
