Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum subsp. durum) is a key crop worldwide, and yet, its improvement and adaptation to emerging environmental threats is made difficult by the limited amount of allelic variation included in its elite pool. New allelic diversity may provide novel loci to international crop breeding through quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping in unexplored material. Here, we report th...

line to/cal/3/7c//bb/cno/5/cal//cno/sn64/4/cno//bad/dar/3/kl/6/sabalan was received from icarda under international winter wheat improvement in 1999-2000 cropping season. based on its favorable agronomic characteristics, it was selected for further evaluations in advanced and elite yield trials in main research stations of dryland agricultural research institute (dari) and on farm yield trials ...

ABSTRACT A total of 78 isolates of Puccinia triticina from durum wheat from Argentina, Chile, Ethiopia, France, Mexico, Spain and the United States and 10 representative isolates of P. triticina from common wheat from the United States were tested for virulence phenotypes on seedling plants of 35 near-isogenic lines of Thatcher wheat. Isolates with virulence on lines with leaf rust resistance g...

the new line (kauz/pastor//bav92/rayon cmss00m02400s-030m-030wgy-030m-9m-0y) (gaboos cultivar) was evaluated at gachsaran and gonbad agricultural research stations in the first time in 2006-2007. due to optimum earliness, plant height, kernel weight and successful performance of grain yield in observation nursery, preliminary and advanced yield trials (2007-2009), this genotype along to 16 prom...

to estimate the optimum and effective amount of nitrogen fertilizer for quantity and quality improvement of three new durum wheat lines, this research was conducted in gachsaran dry-land agricultural research station for a duration of 4 years (2003-2007). the study was performed as a factorial expriment, using a randomized complete block design with 4 replications. two factors of: 4 nitrogen ra...

physiological study of wheat varieties under abiotic stress conditions is a very important factor for improving their future productions. this research work was conducted in the research greenhouse of faculty of agriculture, tarbiat modarres university in 2006, to study leaf quantitative traits of durum wheat under different levels of carbon dioxide (400 and 900 ppm), ultraviolet radiation (uv ...
