1. Zeleny (2008) demonstrated that the co-occurrence based assessment of species habitat specialization (introduced by Fridley et al . 2007) depends on the size of the species pool. To correct for the effect of the species pool on the estimation of species niche width, Zeleny suggested a modification of the original algorithm by replacing additive partitioning as a measure of beta diversity wit...

Stability of breadmaking quality of four Croatian bread winter wheat cultivars was investigated using rheological traits from the farinogram (dough development time, stability, degree of so�ening, water absorption, Hankoczy quality number) and the extensogram (extensibility, maximum resistance, ratio of resistance to extensibility, energy) and the indirect traits (protein content, wet gluten co...

The presence of heavy metals in Triticum aestivum L. growing on the soil enriched with granular sludge after chemical protection was observed. The five variants of treatments using herbicide (Chwastox Turbo 340SL) and four fungicides (Topsin M 500SC, Amistar 250SC, Artea 330EC, and Falcon 460EC) were performed. On control and experimental plots, the concentration of Ni, Pb, Cr, and Cu in wheat ...

This study was conducted to determine changes for some quality characters in M2, M3 and M4 mutated populations of three bread wheat genotypes irradiated by different gamma rays. The results showed that the significantly variably differed their response various traits at rays doses M3, populations. shifts per see from controls examined such as thousand-grain weight (TGW), test (TW), wet gluten c...

Field and laboratory experiments were carried out in 2012-2013, aimed at evaluating the influence of new products stimulating plant growth based on amino acids on crop yield, characteristics of grain and content of macro- and micronutrients in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The tests included two formulations produced in cooperation with INTERMAG Co. (Olkusz, Poland)-AminoPrim and AminoHo...

The effects of previous crops (soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) and winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus L. ssp. oleifera Metzg)), as well conventional tillage (CT) no-tillage (NT), on yield some quality parameters wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain were evaluated based a four-year field experiment. Wheat was grown in four-field crop rotation: Soybean—winter wheat—winter rape—winter wheat. study...

The study was carried out to evaluate the combining ability and heterosis of seven parents their 21 half-diallel F2 populations for yield quality traits during 2013-14 season in randomized complete block design with three replications. Significant differences were observed among genotypes, GCA (general ability) SCA (specific effects all traits, except spike length. best combiner identified as E...

sunn pest (eurygaster integriceps put.) is one of the major pests of wheat in iran. identification of resistantcultivars is an effective integrated pest management (ipm) strategy. to identify the genetic response of wheat and triticale to sunn pest, and determine the relationship between resistance and morpho physiological traits, eight bread wheat breeding lines/cultivars, four durum wheat lin...
