a study was conducted on genetics of some important agronomic traits (number of productive tillers per hill, plant height (cm), panicle length (cm), number of spikelets per panicle and 100-grain weight) in rice during 2012-13. two lines were crossed with five testers in line × tester fashion to produce 10 f1 hybrids. analysis of variance revealed significant differences among genotypes and cros...

to determine the correlation between important traits with yield in barley through path analysis for selecting high yielding lines, three new lines of barley resistant to cold (c-81-13, c-81-11, c-81 -15), compared with valfajr (as control) were studied. this experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with three replications, during 2008 to 2010 in boyer ahmad city.a number ...

according to the contradictory reports of researchers, tillers may have positive or negative effect on wheat yield. thus, this study was conducted to investigate the role of tillers on wheat yield under two row spacing of 12.5 and 25 cm and four plant densities of 125, 250, 375 and 500 plants per m2, at gorgan university of agricultural sciences and natural resources farm in anbare-ololum reign...

To assess the effect of non chemical management of weed control on forage Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) a field study was conducted in Varamin, Iran during 2010 crop year in a three- replicated- split factorial experiment laid out in randomized complete block design with four weeding levels (W1= one time cultivation at 3-leaf stage using a duck foot cultivator, W2<...

The increasing food demands from an expanding population necessitate global efforts to increase crop production and ensure food security. The rate of nitrogen (N) fertilizer application is strongly related to crop yield. However, although the application of N fertilizer significantly increases the number of tillers in rice, late emerging tillers usually produce lower yields compared with early ...

to study yield and its relationships with yield components in 10 varieties of foxtail millet (kfm1 to kfm10), an experiment was carried out in safiabad agricultural research center in rcbd design with three replications for a period of three years (2003 to 2005). vegetative and reproductive characteristics of each cultivar were recordered during the growing seasons. three year results showed si...

Evaluation of three hundred and sixty four proso millet germplasm accessions were done during rabi, 2008-2009 at Department of Millets, Centre for Plant Breeding and Genetics, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore to study genetic variability, diversity, correlation and path analysis of yield and its components. High variability observed for most of the characters indicated the scope o...
