Objective:  In addition to the role of organic matter in plant nutrition, this material improves soil quality, physical structure, ventilation and water supply, and ease of penetration and expansion is rooted deep in the soil surface. Effects of organic matter due to climatic factors, soil characteristics may vary from region to region, resulting in organic materials management must be given to...

originally found in Mississippi in 1980 and by 2002 was estimated to infest 32.4% of the cotton hectarage in Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) lint yields have not changed apMississippi (Lawrence et al., 2002). Although genetics preciably during the last decade. Because more and higher infestations is still probably the predominant reason for the lack of of reniform nematodes (Rotylenchulus renifo...

This study was conducted Razakı grape variety (Vitis vinifera L.) and its vine which was aged 19 was grown on 5 BB rootstock in a vegetation period of 2014 in Afyon province in Turkey. In this research, it was investigated whether the applications of Control (C), 1/3 Cluster Tip Reduction (1/3 CTR), Shoot Tip Reduction (STR), 1/3 CTR + STR, Boric Acid (BA), 1/3 CTR + BA, STR + BA, 1/3 CTR + STR...

Three maize hybrids (Baber, Pioneer 30P45 and Syngenta 6621) were compared for yield and yield components and correlations were worked out among the yield parameters at various nitrogen levels in an experiment conducted at Agricultural University, Peshawar, Pakistan during summer 2009. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete blocks with split plot arrangement having three replication...

The experiment was carried out at Agronomy Field laboratory, Department of Agronomy and Agricultural Extension, university of Rajshahi, to study the effect of irrigation and sowing method on yield and yield attributes of mustard. The experiment consists of two factors i) irrigation viz. no irrigation (I0), one irrigation (I1)and two irrigations (I2) ii) sowing method viz. line sowing method (M1...

JANMOHAMMADI MOHSEN, SABAGHNIA NASER, NOURAEIN MOJTABA. 2014. Path Analysis of Grain Yield and Yield Components and Some Agronomic Traits in Bread Wheat. Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 62(5): 945–952. Development of new bread wheat cultivars needs effi cient tools to monitor trait association in a breeding program. This investigation was aimed to charact...

Yield losses occurring at the field level, whether due to plant diseases or abiotic stresses, reveal reduced stability of the crop yield potential. The paper argues that the stability of crop yield potential is a trait with a clear genetic component, which can be successfully selected for at the single-plant level and incorporated into high-yielding cultivars. Two novel selection equations with...

Stomatal distribution is found to be an important trait of rice cultivars for increasing yield. A total of six rice cultivars, three from each of inbred and hybrid cultivars, were used to study stomatal distribution on the leaf epidermis and its influence on yield and yield attributing characters of rice during the Boro season. The hybrid cultivars exhibited superiority in respect of number of ...

Associations between markers and complex quantitative traits were investigated in a collection of 146 modern two-row spring barley cultivars, representing the current commercial germ plasm in Europe. Using 236 AFLP markers, associations between markers were found for markers as far apart as 10 cM. Subsequently, for the 146 cultivars the complex traits mean yield, adaptability (Finlay-Wilkinson ...
