The event of partly grain-free ear is a crucial problem which can result in severe reductions in corn yield. In a two year field investigation, during 2003-2004, an experiment was conducted to determine the effect of  boron (B) and zinc (Zn) application on yield and yield components of corn (Zea mays L.) plants grown in a B and Zn-deficient calcareous soil (fine, carbonatic, thermic, Typic Hapl...

in order to evaluate some morphological traits of durum wheat genotypes, 18 elite lines selected from advanced regional durum wheat yield trials. these materials along, with two checks dena (durum wheat) and parsi (bread wheat) were examined using rcb design with three replications at isfahan research station in two consecutive cropping season. during the cropping season some trials such as the...

A quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis was conducted on grain appearance in Emi-no-kizuna, a rice cultivar that has superior and stable appearance of the brown rice grain and high tolerance to high temperature stress, by using F3 lines derived from Emi-no-kizuna and Tomohonami. The investigation was performed 2013 and 2015. In summer 2013 the air temperature was higher and the larger differe...

in order to determine the best index for evaluating maize genotypes, 15 maize inbred lines were evaluated in two planting dates, 6 july to coincide heat stress with pollination time and 27 july as normal planting to avoid high temperature during pollination and grain filling period, using a randomized complete block design with three replications, in shushtar city, in 2007. result showed that i...

in order to study of drought tolerance in bread wheat genotypes, this study was conducted in maragheh dryland agricultural research station. the study included two experiments and the statistical design of each experiment was a rcbd with four replications, and 20 bread wheat genotypes that were compared under drought stress (rainfed) and supplementary irrigation. analysis of simple variance sup...

this study was carried out to determine nutritive value and the effect of amaranthus grain on performance and carcass characteristics of broiler chicks. chemical composition of amaranthus grain including dry matter, crude protein, crude fiber, crude ash, and gross energy were 91.04, 17.50, 8.40, 2.70, 5.41, percent and 4515 kcal/kg respectively. metabolizable energy content of amaranthus grain ...

a partial set of diallel crosses conducted among seven bread wheat genotypes contain (gasspard,m86-4,m86-6,dn-11,ws82-9 and m86-12) along with 21 hybrid, based on randomized complete block design(rcbd) with three replication were evaluated. the experiment was accomplished in a research field of agriculture and natural research center of tehran province in 2012-2013 in order to study genetic ana...
