to study the effects of different levels of water stress and nitrogen fertilizer on seed yield and yield components of two common bean genotypes (phaseolus vulgaris), an experiment in a split plot factorial based on crbd with four replications was conducted at the research farm of university of tehran (karaj-iran) in 2010. water stress treatments as the main factor included normal irrigation (6...

Evaluation of Resistance to Leaf Spot Diseases and Yield Characteristics in Faba Bean Genotypes through Cluster Analysis Genotype by Trait Biplot

The common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is one of the most important food legumes, far ahead of other legumes. The average grain yield of the common bean worldwide is much lower than its potential yields, primarily due to drought in the field. However, the gene network that mediates plant responses to drought stress remains largely unknown in this species. The major goals of our study are to id...

Rhizoctonia solani causes economically important root and hypocotyl diseases in common bean throughout the world. Root health is a vital factor in plant development and root diseases would negatively influence water and nutrient uptake as well as cause direct stand reduction and root rot damage to the crop. An efficient common bean screening method to evaluate damping-off and early root/ hypoco...

the response of plants to drought stress depends on several factors including the plant developmental stage and the length and severity of the stress applied. common bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) is the most important pulse crop that is cultivated worldwide for human consumption. understanding of the mechanisms responsible for its response to drought is, therefore, essential. an increasing numbe...

Knowledge of genetic diversity and relationships between genotypes is mainly important for selection of parental genotypes. Moreover, assessing diversity across and within crop varieties is important to improve the description of collections in gene banks and in on-farm conservation practices. In order to evaluation and study of genetic diversity in the bean in normal condition, forty-five bean...

to evaluate morphological markers linked with drought stress resistance for screening almond genotypes in the breeding programs the effect of drought stress was studied on six nominated almond genotypes seedlings. the six pre-selected water stress mimposed almond genotypes included: homozygote sweet (butte from university of california), heterozygote sweet (shahrood12, shahrood18, shahrood21 an...
