Abstract Eleven wheat cultivars were evaluated at 10-day intervals, beginning from anthesis, under irrigated and drought stress conditions during 2006-2007. The effects of irrigation, genotype and date of harvest were significant for most of the studied characters. Water deficit decreased pre-and post-anthesis assimilation rate, grain weight per spike, grain number per spike and 1000 grain wei...

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...

in order to determine the optimum planting date under deficit output area, this research was carried-out in 2010-11 and 2011-12 cropping seasons, in split-plot arrangement, using complete randomized block design with three replications in khuzestan agriculture and natural resource research center. main and sub plots were consisted of four planting dates (oct. 27 with 10 days interval) and four ...

introduction the demand for food and agricultural products are increasing in a line of population increasing in the world (alexandratos, 2003). it is possible to increase the quality and quantity of agricultural products via extending the farms and producing more products (astaaraei and koocheki, 1995). environmental problems caused by synthetic fertilizers and the high levels of producing and ...

introduction nowadays oilseed crops are considered as the second most important sources of energy in the diet. in this regard, cultivation of oilseed crops such as safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.) is important due to quality of oil seed and medicinal properties. different planting dates leads to adaptation of vegetative and reproductive growth of plant to temperature, day-length and various ...

this experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design with three ‎replications with 10 barley cultivars in dryland research station of northern khorasan (shirvan) ‎in 2004-2005 growing season. results indicated that there was significant differences among the ‎lines in terms of the stand percentage, days to emergence, days to heading, days to maturity, plant ‎height, number of ...
