the effect of water stress were studied on the agronomic traits related to yield of common bean by planting 32 genotypes in normal and water deficit conditions. these genotypes were evaluated in randomized complete block design with three replications in experimental field of faculty of agriculture, university of tehran, karaj campus in 2007. analysis of variance showed that there were signific...

Genetic variability and heritability estimates with genetic advance of traits are essential for crop improvement. In this investigation, variability induced by gamma rays and ethyl methane sulphonate (EMS) for different quantitative traits including plant height (cm), flowering time (days), number of primary branches per plant, number of clusters per plant, number of pods per plant, number of s...

an experiment was conducted at assossa agricultural research center (aarc) station during 2008 cropping season in order to study the effects of co-inoculation of bradyrhizobium japonicum (tal-378 and tal-379) and phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (psb) (pseudomonas spp.), and conventional farmers’ fertilizer level (combined and individual application of 46n kg ha-1 and 46 p2o5 kg ha-1) on nodulat...

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is a native crop of Asia which is grown worldwide including Iran.In this study,different selection criteria including correlation,regression and path analysis were used to improve yield.The experimental design was split plot with RCBD replicated four times in which three sowing dates (5 January,4 February,and 5 March) were used in main plots and four genotypes;two ...

in order to evaluate the effects of drought stress and methanol foliar application on some quantitative and qualitative traits of soybean (cv. viliamz), a split plot experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design at the faculty of moghan research farm in 2011. treatments were three levels of drought stress based on irrigation at depletion of 40, 55 and 70 percent of availabl...

designing breeding programs for winter rapeseed (brassica napus l.) cultivars with improved seed and oil yields requires information about the genetic variability of traits. in this study, 28 winter rapeseed cultivars were evaluated for genetic variation and relationships between 11 agro-morphological characters during 2010 and 2011. cultivars and cultivar × year interaction showed significant ...
