Application of selection index for screening desired plants based on complex quantitative traits can be more effective than direct selection. This study was conducted using an F2 rice population consisting of 87 plants derived from a cross between two cultivars Gharib and IR28. The purpose was to establish suitable selection indices for increasing yield and its related traits in research farm...

language learning courseware has been receiving growing attention by english educators since its advent. a variety of softwares have been designed by software designers and resorted to by language educators to supplement language textbooks. this experimental study investigated how the application of computerized version of language textbooks and the reception of the entire course through comput...

this study investigated the effects of planning on second-language written production with regard to task type. the participants were 75 iranian learners of english as a foreign language attending a private foreign language institution. they were asked to complete two different types of writing tasks (expository writing task and argumentative writing task) in different planned conditions (indiv...

In order to identify QTLs controlling agronomically traits, landrace Tarom and rice Tarom mutant were crossed. SSR, ISSR, iPBS and IRAP markers were amplified in 250 F2 individuals to prepare the linkage map. Number of tillers, 100 grain weight, number of filled grains, number of unfilled grains, plant height, panicle length, number of branches, stem diameter, grain length, grain width, grain s...

     Determining the relationships between grain yield and some yield components of wheat is most important in permanent yield production.  Using path coefficient analysis in order to determine key traits affecting majorly yield, and also to study direct and indirect effects of yield and yield components, this research was performed during 2006-2009 ys using 94 doubled-haploid (DH) lines, their...

Relationship between grain filling rate , grain filling duration, yield components and other physiological traits of rice was investigated in 93 genotypes of rice at Rice Research Institute of Iran (Rasht, Iran) during the growing season of 2001-2002. The experiment was performed without any statistical design. Panicles of main stem were tagged and taken at 3- day intervals during the grain fil...
