In order to study of variability, relationship among traits, direct and indirect effects of traits influencing grain yield, 18 lines and cultivars of bread wheat were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with four replications during 2009-2012 cropping seasons. Coefficients of genotypic and phenotypic variability showed that lines had high genetic variation for peduncle length, grain...

To determine the relationships between yield and its components, and to find the direct and indirect effects of yield-related traits on soybean yield, 240 genotypes were grown in the Research Station, College of Agriculture, Karaj, Iran, in 1997-98 using an augmented design. The study of correlation analysis showed that number of seeds per plant and seed yield per plant had the highest signific...
