in order to study drought tolerance indices and to introduce tolerant maize hybrids in drought conditions, an experiment was conducted at the experimental field of seed and plant improvement institute, in 2009. the experiment was carried out using split-plot in a randomized complete block design (crbd) with three replications. the main plots consisted of three levels of irrigation regimes (irri...

The main objective of this research was to evaluate fourteen oat (Avena sativa L.) landraces and cultivars for drought tolerance using several indices. The trials were conducted both under rain-fed and irrigated conditions for three growing seasons (2001–2004) in two locations in the Central Anatolian Region of Turkey. Biplot analysis based on the Spearman’s rank correlation matrix revealed tha...

In complex task domains, such as games, students may exceed their teachers. Such tasks afford diverse means to tradeoff one type of performance for another, combining task elements in novel ways to yield method variations and strategy discoveries that, if mastered, might produce large or small leaps in performance. For the researcher interested in the development of extreme expertise in the wil...

Given a set of n data points (xi, yi, zi) ∈ [0, 1] , two methods are established for constructing two piecewise linear copulas, respectively denoted CA(x, y) and CB(x, y), in such a way that CA(xi, yi) and CB(xi, yi) both yield an approximation of zi for all i. If the data points are (randomly) sampled from an unknown copula C, i.e. zi = C(xi, yi), then CA and CB provide two piecewise linear es...

introduction drought stress is one of the most important abiotic stresses all around the world. the aim of breeding studies and breeding for resistance to drought is that breeders seek to identify varieties and genetic resources to drought resistant and comparison of drought resistance among the varieties and the introduction of superior varieties to farmers. drought or imbalance between supply...
