Soil salinization is one of the major problems in global agricultural production. Cotton is a pioneer crop with regard to salt stress tolerance, and can be used for saline-alkali land improvement. The large-scale detection of salt tolerance traits in cotton accessions, and the identification of elite quantitative trait loci (QTLs)/genes for salt-tolerance have been very important in salt tolera...

Genetic and phenotypic parameters for sow productivity traits were derived from analyses of records for 999 purebred Duroc and Yorkshire litters at the Beltsville Agricultural Research Center. Included were 682 spring-farrowed litters and 317 fall-farrowed litters. Primary traits examined were number of pigs born alive in the litter (NA), litter size at 21 d of age (N21), litter weight at 21 d ...

Water availability is a major limiting factor for wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production in rain-fed agricultural systems worldwide. Root architecture is important for water and nutrition acquisition for all crops, including wheat. A set of 158 diverse wheat genotypes of Australian (72) and Indian (86) origin were studied for morpho-agronomical traits in field under irrigated and drought stres...

Experiment was designed to establish a more defi nitive relationship of phenological and physiological traits with yield in wheat using twenty fi ve spring wheat genotypes. Because many of these traits are interrelated, correlation coeffi cient, path analysis and principal component analysis were used to expose these relationships more clearly. Experiment was conducted at the Wheat Research Cen...

in order to study morphological traits, yield and yield components of 34 hybrids of corn, an experiment was carried out based on of randomized complete block design with three replications under normal irrigation condition in khorasan razavi agricultural research and natural resources center, mashhad, iran on 2009. results of analysis of variance showed that there were significant differences b...

Biogen base serves the maize (Zea mays L.) research community by making a wealth of genetics and genomics data available through an intuitive Web-based interface. We have developed an Open access database as a resource to enhance research with the unique data obtained from the genomics and proteomics lab of TNAU. Biogen Base is an interactive database in bringing out the different traits of the...
