today, environment protection and safe crop production are very important. the management of soil elements by bio-fertilizers is considered as important point for sustainable agriculture. mode of action of fertilizers is very different in drought stress conditions. to evaluate biological fertilizers (agrohumic, nitroxin, superabsorbent and vermicompost) and compare them with current chemical fe...

To identifying of the high yielding wheat lines with optimal characteristics and to determine the traits which could be used as the selection index for increasing of grain yield, 40 recombinant inbred lines derived from a cross between Norstar and Zagros cultivars were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The measured characters consisted of peduncle weight, ...

in order to evaluation of plant densities and row spacing effects on growth and yield of wheat, an experiment was conducted by using four plant densities (125, 250, 375 and 500 plants per m2),two row spacing (12.5 and 25 cm), in a randomized complete block design with three replicates in anbare-ololum reign in rainfed and saline conditions during 2008-2009. results showed that leaf area index (...

twentieth century had faced considerable increase in crops yields. nonetheless, it is postulated that world population will reach 10.4 billion until 2050 which means the demand for agricultural crops production should be increased between 60 and 110 percent. in the present study, improvements in grain yields of wheat, maize and rice during the recent decades in iran were studies through analyzi...

water deficit stress is the most important environmental constraint for growth, yield and productivity of crops, including the oil seed crops. this study was aimed at studying the influence of differing irrigation régimes on growth, chlorophyll , proline and some antioxidants content along with grain yield, yield components and oil content of sesame genotypes using a 4-replicate split plot rand...

in many crops, incorrect management of nitrogen and water is one of the most important factors in the resources productivity such as water and nitrogen. in order to evaluate the effects of different nitrogen levels (zero, 50, 100 and 150 kg ha-1) and irrigation application rates (100, 75 and 50% of water requirement per species) on corn, sesame and sugar beet, three separate experiments was con...

an experiment was conducted to determine the effect of five plants densities (100,200,300,400 and 500 grain m-2) on yield and its components in three rain fed barley cultivars (ezeh, mahor and dopar). a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted in agricultural research center of khorramabad city in the east of iran (in 2006-2007). in th...

                The present study was undertaken to evaluate direct and indirect selection criteria for the improvement of grain yield and quality components in Chenopodium quinoa Willd. Correlated response (CR) and relative selection efficiency (RSE) were estimated for grain yield and three quality components, grain protein, grain carotenoid and leaf carotenoid based on different contributing ...
