background and objectives: the region of the experiment is located in golestan province, iran, with agriculture subject to various farming conditions (rain-fed and irrigation) and different levels of salinity (more than 38% of golestan’s total land area is salt-affected). the purpose of this study has been to evaluate the stress indices in the selection of tolerant wheat genotypes, not only for...

to evaluate the effects of water deficit stress in barley germplasm collection of national gene bank ofiran, 25 genotypes collected from arid and semi arid provinces of iran and 3 sample cultivars werestudied in two environments including: non-stressed and water deficit stress. agronomical, phenologicaland morphological traits were measured. stress indices were calculated to determine tolerant ...

drought stress is considered as the most important environmental abiotic stress, affecting grain yield of crop plants especially in arid and semi arid regions. increasing and utilization of the genetic diversity can be a useful strategy in breeding for drought resistance. in this study, twenty iranian durum wheat landraces along with two check cultivars were evaluated in a randomized complete b...

this study was conducted to determine drought tolerance genotypes with superiority in different stressed environments. to screening quantitative indices of drought tolerance, genotypes of safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.) were tested in a complete randomized block design with three replications under two different water regimes (irrigated and rainfed). significant positive correlation was fou...

in countries such as iran which will be faced water deficit as the main challenge in the future and the food production is going to be dependent to water recourses, wheat water-deficit tolerant and adapted genotypes release is one of the most important strategies under such a condition. in order to study the adaptation and terminal water deficit stress tolerance, fifteen bread wheat lines and c...
