this study was conducted to investigate the genotype¬×¬environment interaction effects on yield and yield components of wheat. ten cultivars of wheat were evaluated in 8 environments (combinations of two levels of nitrogen and four irrigation regimes) in growing season of 2006-2007 at the research farm of isfahan university of technology. based on the stability parameters of eberhart and russel...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Most plant scientists, in contrast to animal scientists, study only half the organism, namely above-ground stems, leaves, flowers and fruits, and neglect below-ground roots. Yet all acknowledge roots are important for anchorage, water and nutrient uptake, and presumably components of yield. This paper investigates the relationship between domestication, and the root systems ...

Efficient use of space and high yields are critical for long-term food production aboard the International Space Station. The selection of a full dwarf wheat (less than 30 cm tall) with high photosynthetic and yield potential is a necessary prerequisite for growing wheat in the controlled, volume-limited environments available aboard long-term spaceflight missions. This study evaluated the phot...

Background and Purpose: Soil remediation in contaminated soils is an important factor of environmental research. This research evaluated the effect of sepiolite, palygorskite, and triple super phosphate (TSP) on decreasing the heavy metals uptake by wheat cultivars inoculated with Piriformospora indica (P. indica). Materials and Methods: Treatments included applying sepiolite, palygorskite (at...

in order to study of barely and wheat cultivars tolerance to metribuzin, a factorial experiment was conducted as a completely randomized design, with three replications in greenhouse of agricultural research at ferdowsi university of mashhad. treatments included wheat cultivars (backcross roshan, cross arvand, bahar, sepahan, gascosion, sayonez, bam garmsiry, garmsiri, ghods, pishtaz, chamran a...

  Abstract In most southern provinces of Iran, soil salinity is a growing problem, particularly in irrigated agricultural areas, and has been found to reduce wheat yield, dramatically. To investigate the effect of sodium chloride on two wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars, four levels of salinity: 0, 4, 8 and 12 dS/m, were employed as a factorial experiment arranged in a randomized complet...

this research was investigated to evaluate growth indices and competitive ability of two wheat ) triticum aestivum l. (cultivars in interference with two species of narrow and broad leaf weeds as two separated experiments based on a randomized complete block design with three replications at agricultural faculty of bu-ali sina university, during 2008-2009. in both experiments, alvand and sayson...

in order to investigation of response of durum wheat genotypes to terminal drought stress, this experiment was conducted in neishabour agricultural research station during two growing seasons of 2004-2005 and 2005-2006. seventeen advanced durum wheat genotypes, two bread wheat cultivars and one durum wheat cultivar (i.e. 20 genotypes and cultivars) were evaluated in two separate experiments (no...
