abstract plant- growth promoting rhizobacteria enhance plant growth and yield directly and or indirectly. a factorial experiment was conducted in greenhouse to determine the efficacy of four strains of fluorescent pseudomonas on wheat yield and yield component under saline conditions. the experiment was carried out with the following treatments (non –inoculation control and inoculation with p.f...

abstract due to limited water resources in agriculture, application of each strategy to economize water use and increase area under cultivation is very important. one such strategy is deficit irrigation. for optimal planning of deficit irrigation, it is necessary to determine different sensitive stages of plant water shortages. in this study the effect of deficit irrigation on growth and yield ...

this research was carried out at the research farm, faculty of agriculture, bu-ali sina university in growing season of 2011-2012. the aim of research was to evaluate the effect of foliar application of nano-iron chelate and bacterization of mesorhizobium bacteria on root nodulation, growth, grain yield and yield components of chickpea under rainfed conditions. a randomized complete block desig...

Selection for drought tolerance typically involves evaluating genotypes for either high yield potential or stable performance under drought stress. In order to select drought tolerant land races of bread wheat an experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications under two different rainfed and irrigated conditions during the growing season 2010-2011. ...

selection of genotypes based on high value of heritability and forecasted genetic conditions would be an effective method for improvement of wheat cultivars. the present investigation was carried out to estimate the genetic variability of agro-physiological characters using biometrical genetic techniques in 20 bread wheat genotypes under irrigated condition. for this purpose an experiment was c...

in order to study dry matter accumulation in different developmental stages and photoassimilates remobilization in bread wheat genotypes, a field experiment was carried out using a split split plot design based on a randomized complete block design with three replications in torogh agricultural and natural resources research station (mashhad, iran) in 2006-2007 and 2007-2008. main plots were as...

Drought is the major abiotic stress to rice grain yield under unpredictable changing climatic scenarios. The widely grown, high yielding but drought susceptible rice varieties need to be improved by unraveling the genomic regions controlling traits enhancing drought tolerance. The present study was conducted with the aim to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for grain yield and root develo...
