drought is a major limiting factor for agricultural production in most parts of the world and landraces areimportant genetic resources for crop improvement in dry areas. during the 2007-2008 cropping season, 23 chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) genotypes consisting of 21 kabuli chickpea landraces provided by the national plant gene bank of iran and two known commercial varieties (hashem and arman) ...

drought stress is one of the important problems in arid and semi_arid regions. drought stress take place in plants when available water is lesser than evapotranspiration. in order to evaluate the effect of drought stress on morphological traits and yield of three medicinal plants an experiment was carried out during the 2010 year in research greenhouse of faculity of agriculture, ferdowsi unive...

this research was investigated to study relationship among seed yield, seed yield components and morphological traits and their direct and indirect effects on seed yield of 100 safflower genotypes in two water environments (normal and drought stress) at research farm of isfahan university of technology during 2012. seed yield had positive correlation with number of head per plant, seed per head...

lentil is considered as salinity sensitive species and is adversely affected in response to the salt stress in terms of growth and yield. this pot experiment was conducted to determine the effect of exogenous salicylic acid (sa) application on physiology, growth, yield and yield components of lentil grown under salt stress in greenhouse conditions, in a factorial arrangement based on randomized...

the aim of this study was investigation the combined effect of terminal heat of last growth season and competition between plants on phenology, yield and components yield in faba bean. a field experiment with 3 sowing dates (28 november 2011, 15 december 2011 and 7 january 2012) and 4 plant densities (8, 12, 16 and 20 plants m-2) was conducted on faba bean (cv. barkat) at agricultural science r...

A study was conducted at the National Agriculture Research Center, Islamabad during summer 2001 on 27 genotypes of soybean to determine the correlation and path analyses of yield and its components. Significant differences among genotypes for characters viz., leaf area, chlorophyll content, first pod height, days to 50% flowering, days to flowering completion, days to pod initiation, days to 50...
