A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the crop water stress index (CWSI), grain yield and canopy temperature of triticale under two irrigation regimes at Research Station of College of Agriculture and Natural Resources of Darab, Shiraz University, in 2013. A split plot design was used with three triticale cultivars (Sanabad, ET-83-3, and ET-84-5), as sub-plots and four levels of irrigati...

in order to evaluate the relationship between grain yield and agronomic characteristics in bread wheat genotypes in different planting dates under rainfed conditions, a factorial experiment was conducted based on rcbd with four replications at gonbad-e qabus region, iran, during 2012-2014 growing seasons. number of spikes per unit area, grain filling rate, effective grain filling period, number...

Despite general effect of salicylic-acid (SA) in improving plant growth andproductivity in saline conditions, there have not been unanimity about the bestconcentration. In this 2-yr field study the effect of different SA concentrations(0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mM) was examined on growth, grain yield and yieldcomponents of barley under two non-saline (2 dS m-1) and saline (12 dS m-1)conditions. ...

A field experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of soil application of zinc fertilizer on yield and yield components of wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Pak-81) grown on calcareous soil in Pakistan. The levels of zinc sulphate were 0 (control), 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 kg ha and the zinc sulphate was combine-drilled at the time of sowing. Zinc sulphate increased the Leaf Area Index, t...

a pot experiment was designed to evaluate the effect of trichoderma spp. on yield and yield components of wheat (cv. n81) under different levels of cadmium nitrate. experiment was arranged in factorial based on completely randomized design with three replicates. trichoderma harzianum at two levels (with and without inoculation) and four levels of cadmium nitrate (0, 50, 100, 150 mg l-1) were th...

soil salinity poses considerable and increasing problems for agriculture, and is receiving much attention from plant breeders. the identification of genes whose expression enables plants to adapt to and/or tolerate salt stress is essential for breeding programs, but little is known about the genetic mechanisms of traits in saline conditions. the data obtained from 75 families produced by crossi...

A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the different brands of zinc fertilizer produced and marketed in different areas of Bangladesh and their effect on nutrients content in rice (BRRI dhan 32). Among the nutrients; the content of N, S and Ca in grains and straw did not vary significantly, but the contents of P, K, Na, Mg, Zn, Cu, Fe and Mn in grain and straw varied significantly due to ...
