One of the effective indirect selections methods for improving grain yield and its components is the selection index. In order to develop a suitable selection index for simultaneously increasing yield and its related traits, 100 sunflower inbred lines from different geographical origins were evaluated in randomized complete block designs with three replications at Urmia University in 2015 ...

To investigate the effect of plant density on agronomic traits of winter rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) cultivars under foliar application of salicylic acid a factorial split-plot arrangement in randomozide complet block design with three replications was carried out in Karaj, Iran, in two cropping seasons (2015-2017). Plant density at three levels of 40, 50 and 60 plants.m-2 and salicylic acid a...

To study the effect of sowing date on quantitave and qualitative traits of soybean in Shahrekord region, an experiment was performed as split plot based on randomized complete blocks design with four replications at Agricultural and Natural Resources Research Centre of Chaharmahal-va-Bakhtiari, Shahrekord, in 2008. Four sowing dates (May 5, May 20, June 4 and June 19) and four varieties (M9, M7...

learning english is very popular all over the world nowadays and it is considered a high prestigious language among citizens of different societies. one of the most important materials for learning a new language are textbooks. the debate that whether learning a new language is natural and neutral or ideological and influential on people’s worldviews, has always been of great importance.

Littele is known about the relationships of different traits in safflower using wild and cultivated species. In this study, 46 safflower genotypes from five different species were evaluated under normal and deficit irrigation and the relationship of traits was assessed. Results showed that water stress had significant effect on head yield per plant, number of seeds per head, head diameter and 1...

This experiment was conducted at the Research Farm of Isfahan University of Technology, Najafabad, Iran in 2014 and 2015 to evaluate drought tolerance indices of some sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) genotypes. In this study, 21 sesame genotypes isolated from different local populations along with seven exotic cultivars were evaluated at two irrigation regimes, using a randomized complete block desi...

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: The selection of high-yielding genotypes is especially important in sunflower. Therefore, this study was conducted to identify interrelationships between different traits and the selection of the best sunflower hybrids. Material and Methods: In this study, 11 new hybrids along with four cultivars Golsa, Ghasem, Shams, and Farrokh were evaluated in...
