to assess moisture stress tolerance at the reproductive growth stage in 11 promising genotypes of spring rapeseed (brassica napus l.), two field experiments were conducted in two growing seasons (2008-2010) at the agricultural research center of safiabad, dezful, iran. genotypes were sown under two non-stress (well-irrigated) and moisture stress (irrigation ceased at flowering) conditions using...

identification of morphological, phenological and yield characteristics of genotypes is important in order to collect necessary information for available varieties and as a result selection of one or more specific traits. in this study, 73 kabuli chickpea genotypes from pulses seed bank of research center for plant sciences, ferdowsi university of mashhad, were planted in irrigated conditions a...

Genetic diversity of 40 traditional Bangladeshi rice genotypes was studied under rainfed condition through Mahalanobis D statistic for grain yield and yield contributing characters. The genotypes were grouped into six clusters. The inter-cluster distances were higher than intra-cluster distances indicating wider genetic diversity among the genotypes of different clusters. The intra-cluster dist...

in order to study of some effective phenologic and physiologic characteristics on 18 sunflower hybrids yield under optimum conditions, an experiment was conducted as randomized complete block design with three replications at the research field of seed and plant improvement institute-karaj in 2006-2007. the result indicated that the hybrids showed significant difference in phonologic characteri...

water deficit stress, permanent or temporary, limits the growth and the distribution of natural vegetation and the performance of cultivated plants more than any other environmental factors. mechanism involved is still not clear. in order to investigate the effect of different irrigation intervals and anti-transpirants compoundson yield and yield components of black cumin (nigella sativa), an e...
