The use of high yielding and resistant to drought stress cultivars in crops is one of the proper way to incorporation other water deficit management methods. This study in order to evaluate grain yield and morphological traits, an experiment was conducted with 100 genotypes of durum wheat which were planted based on lattice design with three replications under normal and drought stress conditio...

This experiment was conducted at the Research Farm of Isfahan University of Technology, Najafabad, Iran in 2014 and 2015 to evaluate drought tolerance indices of some sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) genotypes. In this study, 21 sesame genotypes isolated from different local populations along with seven exotic cultivars were evaluated at two irrigation regimes, using a randomized complete block desi...

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Due to the water resources limitation required for agriculture in Iran, providing effective methods to reduce the negative effects of drought on crop yield is one of the important studies to plant breeding. Drought tolerance in crops is very important. By using different cultivars of crops that are able to produce relatively good yield in drought s...

Drought stress is considered as one of the most important constraints to the crop production, including medicinal plants in many arid and semi-arid regions. This study was carried out to determine the most effective indices for drought tolerance and identification of tolerance genotypes under drought conditions in N. sativa. For this purpose, 36 genotypes of N. sativa were tested as a split plo...

In order to determine the most effective indices for quantifying drought tolerance and identify genotypes that are tolerant to water stress in bread wheat, 50 bread wheat genotypes were compared in a randomized complete block design with three replications under both the non-stress dry farming with two complementary irrigation and the water stress dry farming conditions in Khorramabad, Iran. An...

In order to evaluate the reaction of foreign genotypes and the indigenous cultivars of barley against drought and study their biochemical traits, eight genotypes with two barley cultivars were surveyed in a randomized complete block design with three replications in two states of sufficient irrigation and non-sufficient irrigation regimes (drought) at the Faculty of Agriculture, Shiraz Universi...

Anise is an annual plant belonging to Apiaceae family and fruit essential oil of this herb is used in various pharmaceutical, cosmetic and beverage industries. Drought stress is one of the most critical limiting factors for anise production in worldwide. In this research, to finding interrelationships among different traits and performance, some anise genotypes were evaluated using the biplot m...

In order to evaluate drought resistance indices, an experiment was carried out in a randomized complete block design in three replications with thirteen bread wheat genotypes and two levels of irrigation, stressed and non stressed, at Dry land Agricultural Research Institute (DARI), Maragheh, in 2009-2010. tolerant on the basis of yield performance in stressed (ys) and non-stressed (yp) environ...
