Selection of high yielding genotypes is very important in sunflower. Thus, 24 new sunflower hybrids along with Golsa cultivar were evaluated in a simple lattice design (5×5) with two replications in the Agriculture Research Station of Gorgan, north of Iran, during 2020. The genotype by yield × trait (GYT) biplot method was used in order to study the relationships between different traits and to...

Under irrigation and in double-cropping system, a large amount of plant residue remains after harvest that along with the limited time for residue decomposition and complete seedbed preparation, necessitates reduced tillage and special residue management. In the present study, the effects of various seedbed preparation methods on vegetative growth, yield components and seed and oil yields of su...

This study was conducted to evaluate 100 safflower genotypes (Carthamus tinctorius L.) under two moisture stress environments (non-stress and drought stress) during 2012 using a simple lattice design. Results showed that drought stress significantly decreased some traits such as seed yield per plant (21.2%), number of heads per plant (18.7%), oil percent (1.8%) and biological yield (15.3%). Res...

In recent years, special attention has been paid to the consumption of plant growth stimulants such as amino acids and humic acids along with micronutrients to adjust the effects of abnormal environmental conditions such as untimely cold or salinity and drought stress in grain production programs. In order to investigate the effect of growth enhancers on compensating for the lack of transport a...
