Zhou, X. B. and Y. h. Chen, 2011. Yield response of winter wheat to row spacing under irrigated and rainfed conditions. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 17: 158-166 In China, wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is cultivated across a wide range of climatic conditions. The average rainfall was recorded at 696.6 mm per year from 1971 to 2008 at Taian in northern China. Considerable variability in the row spacing (...

evaluating of agronomic traits and their relationships with grain yield are important in plant breeding. in order to evaluate agronomic traits and their effects on grain yield, 76 durum wheat landraces as well as 4 local checks were studied in augmented design with 4 blocks under rainfed condition in maragheh and ardabil locations. the result showed that there is remarkable diversity among land...

terminal heat and drought are the main constraints for wheat production in the vast and diverse semi-tropical rainfed regions of iran. high temperature stress during wheat’s reproductive stage is particularly detrimental, reducing both individual kernel weight and kernel number. identification of adapted genotypes can improve grain yield and its stability under heat stress conditions. selection...

Genetic analyses and association mapping were performed on a winter wheat core collection of 96 accessions sampled from a variety of geographic origins. Twenty-four agronomic traits were evaluated over 3 years under fully irrigated, rainfed and drought treatments. Grain yield was the most sensitive trait to water deficit and was highly correlated with above-ground biomass per plant and number o...

in order to study of drought tolerance in bread wheat genotypes, this study was conducted in maragheh dryland agricultural research station. the study included two experiments and the statistical design of each experiment was a rcbd with four replications, and 20 bread wheat genotypes that were compared under drought stress (rainfed) and supplementary irrigation. analysis of simple variance sup...
