Wheat ( L.) spike characteristics determine the number of grains produced on each spike and constitute key components of grain yield. Understanding of the genetic basis of spike characteristics in wheat, however, is limited. In this study, genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) and the iSelect 9K assay were used on a doubled-haploid (DH) soft red winter wheat population that showed a wide range of phen...

in order to study the effect of compost and salinity stress on seedling growth and generative traits of wheat (sivand cultivar) a pot experiment was conducted based on complete randomized design arranged in factorial with six replications at the research greenhouse, faculty of agriculture, mashhad branch, islamic azad university, mashhad, iran, during in cropping season 2013-2014. factors were ...

microsatellite markers were used to identify informative markers associated with traits lattice shape of pod, belly shape in pod, pod length, pod width, grain number per pod, grain weight, grain weight/pod weight, grain length, grain width, pod number per plant, grain number per plant, pod weight per plant, grain weight per plant in peanut. thirteen ssr primer pairs amplified 80 alleles among 6...

Grain number per spike, which is greatly influenced by floret fertility, is an important trait of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) yield. Maximum floret primordia, fertile floret, and final grain number per spikelet are three crucial factors of floret fertility. Floral degradation plays a critical role in determining these three floret fertility-related traits. Twelve hexaploid spring wheat genotyp...

Manure not only supplies many nutrients for crop production, but it is also a valuable source for increasing soil organic matter content and improving soil structure. To increase organic manure content as well as improve the wheat production adding plant residues and livestock to soil is necessary. The experiment was conducted in Shavoor Research Station to determine seed yield and soil physica...
