A diallel analysis of eight bread wheat (Ttriticum aestivum L.) cultivars was conducted to determine genetic parameters and the type of genetic control for yield and yield components. The parents and their F1 hybrids were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with 3 replications. General and specific combining ability effects were estimated by the method 2 of the Griffings model I, an...

Diallel analysis was used to estimate the combining ability, gene action, gene number, heritabilties and other genetic parameters of a set of wheat genotypes. For this purpose, nine parents and their 36 crosses were evaluated for 9 traits in a randomized complete block design with three replications in 1996. The analysis of variance revealed significant differences among all genotypes for all ...

Genetic variation of 300 genotypes of durum wheat comprising CIMMYT/ICARDA and Iranian germplasm was evaluated in 1999-2000 at Researh Farm of College of Agriculture, Isfahan University of Technology located at Lavark, NaJaf-Abad. Days to heading, days to maturity, plant height, spike length, grain weight per spike, number of grain per spike, number of spikes per m2, 1000-grain weight, test wei...

The purpose of this study was to describe the correlations between wheat grain yield (GY) and its components, under environmental stress and non-stress conditions, and recognition of the most effective yield components and their development stages in making interaction with the environment. Two generations of F3 and F4, produced from a cross between Oste-Gata (drought tolerant) and Massara-1 (s...

An experiment was conducted to investigate the genetic diversity in the cultivars and F1 hybrids of durum wheat, using agronomic and morphological traits. Evaluation of consistency between choosing parents of crosses based on morphological and agronomic observations and genetic distance obtained from cluster analysis were objectives of this study. Fourty- two genotypes were evaluated using a ra...

In order to study of variability, relationship among traits, direct and indirect effects of traits influencing grain yield, 18 lines and cultivars of bread wheat were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with four replications during 2009-2012 cropping seasons. Coefficients of genotypic and phenotypic variability showed that lines had high genetic variation for peduncle length, grain...

This study the effect of seed preparation (priming) with different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide on the anatomy of the flag leaf and spike two wheat genotypes( Cross Sabalan ( bread wheat) and Saji(durum wheat)) and its relationship with grain yield, under dry land farming system condition, Experimental design was factorial, arranged in randomized complete block. Results showed that the n...
