The paper investigates seed coat characteristics (as a percentage of overall seed diameter) in Lupinus angustifolius L., a potential forage crop. In the study ten L. angustifolius genotypes, including three Polish cultivars, two Australian cultivars, three mutants originated from cv. 'Emir', and one Belarusian and one Australian breeding line were evaluated. The highest seed coat percentage was...

The effects of water stress on morphometric characteristics of wild radish seeds as well as the expression of its seed dormancy were investigated in a pot trial at Roseworthy, South Australia in 2005. This experiment was carried out in a completely randomised design with five water regimes (control, S4, S5, S6 and S8) and four replicates. The water stress was exerted by withholding irrigation a...

for determining the oil content, seed and fruit characteristics of ethiopian jatropha provenances, the study was conducted in five regions of ethiopia namely southern nation nationalities peoples regional state, amhara region, tigria region, oromia region and benishangul gumuz regions, where jatropha is found abundantly. a total of 23 zones, 36 weredas and 40 sampling sites were considered from...

identification of morphological, phenological and yield characteristics of genotypes is important in order to collect necessary information for available varieties and as a result selection of one or more specific traits. in this study, 73 kabuli chickpea genotypes from pulses seed bank of research center for plant sciences, ferdowsi university of mashhad, were planted in irrigated conditions a...

The experiment was carried out with 32 genotypes of Brassica rapa including two commercially cultivated varieties as checks to study their mean, range, cv (%) correlation co-efficient, and path co-efficient considering 10 different morphological characters at the experimental farm of SAU, Dhaka during November 2009 to February 2010. Significant variation was observed among all the genotypes for...

in order to study the realationship between genetic diversity and different characteristics associated with grain yield in barley, 28 genotypes of barley cultivars contain seven cultivars and 21 hybrids were evaluated in randomized complete block (rcb) design with three replications. cultivars were valfajr, makuei, kavir, rayhan, gorgan, nusrat and nimroz. this study was carried out in research...

to determine the association between genetic parameters and traits in chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) genotypes, a field experiment was conducted with 17 chickpea genotypes using a randomized complete block design with four replications at the ilam agricultural and natural resources research center in the 2004 growing season. genetic parameters including genetic, environmental and phenotypic vari...
