In order to investigate water deficit stress on 24 of soybean (Glycine Max. L) cultivars and lines in temperate climate, an experiment was conducted in Iran Seed and Plant Improvement Institute. Stress levels were irrigation after evaporation of 50, 100, 150 mm water from pan, class A. Randomized Completely Block Design was arranged for each stress levels. Some traits such as, node number, plan...

to study and determine  effect of salinity on relationship between  agronomic  characteristics and grain yield, 167  of  the  seri/babax recombinant wheat inbred  lines (ril) together with two parents were evaluated using alpha latice design with two replications under two conditions (salt stress and normal), in zabol field station in 2011-12 cropping season. fourteen  traits  including: some a...

in order to study the correlation between morphophenological and quantitative traits with yield and to determine the most important traits for yield, 600 ecotypes of mung bean were evaluated in normal and limited irrigation conditions through augmented design. computation of correlation coefficients showed that in two conditions, number of pods per plant, harvest index and biological yield had ...

The aim of this study was to determine nature and extent of variability parameters and their utilization in barley breeding programme. A total of 45 F1s along with their parents and F2 populations were evaluated in a randomized block design with 3 replications during Rabi (winter season) 2014. The various traits measured were days to 50% flowering, days to maturity, plant height, flag leaf area...

The response of growth and yield of rainfed-chickpea to population density should be evaluated based on long-term experiments to include the climate variability. This is achievable just by simulation. In this simulation study, this evaluation was done by running the CYRUS model for long-term daily weather data of five locations in Iran. The tested population densities were 7 to 59 (with interva...

The experimental material consisted seven mutagenic populations of chickpea in M3 and M4 generation, control (Avarodhi) and check variety Pusa 312. The experiment was conducted during rabi 2009-10 and 2010-11. On the basis of per se performance, six mutagenic populations were selected for high seed yield coupled with high harvest index and more number of pods per plant. None of the mutagenic po...

A major challenge in rice (Oryza sativa L.) production is to enhance water use efficiency (WUE) and maintain or even increase grain yield. WUE, if defined as the biomass accumulation over water consumed, may be fairly constant for a given species in given climate. WUE can be enhanced by less irrigation. However, such enhancement is largely a trade-off against lower biomass production. If WUE is...

in order to evaluate the effects of harvesting dates on qualitative traits of safflower genotypes, an experiment was carried out under field conditions in the agricultural faculty of urmia university in 2009-10. factorial experiments were based on randomized complete blocks design with four replications was used under field condition. genotypes included isfahan landrace, sina, il111 and pi25053...
