abstract in order to study the effects on salinity and silicon application on yield and yield components of purslane (portulaca oleracea l.), an experiment was conducted in a completely randomized desgin with three replications and two factors consisted of four different levels of salinity using nacl (0, 7, 14, 21ds/m) and two levels of silicon (application of one mmol sodium silicate and not a...

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...

Quinoa is a plant seed well known scientifically as Chenopodium quinoa. It super food. In the present study white bold quinoa variety was analyzed for physical, functional, cooking and nutritional properties. Thousand kernel weight (2.24g), length (2.2125mm), hydration capacity (0.16g/1000 kernel) bulk density 0.74g/ml. Lightness of grains 87.56 L*. Grains had 157.3 per cent water holding capac...

a field experiment was conducted to study the physical properties of maize grain in response to different urea fertilization methods (urea foliar spraying and soil application), three harvest times (grain moisture content of 20, 30 and 40 pecent) in four maize hybrids (three foreign hybrids e.g. ns640, jeta600 , konsur580 and one common hybrid, sc704 as control) at khorram abad agricultural res...

to illustrate the impact of various levels of deficit irrigation on yield and yield components of maize cultivars, a study was conducted based on randomized complete blocks as a split plot design with 3 replicates and two treatments for three crop seasons. four levels of deficit irrigation including: conventional, 100, 80, and 60% of water level use were considered as main plots and two varieti...

salinity tolerance is a genetically and physiologically complex trait, controlled by quantitative trait loci (qtls). in order to map the qtls associated with agronomic and physiological traits, 149 doubled haploid lines derived from a cross between clipper (salt susceptible) and sahara 3771 (salt tolerant) barley genotypes were evaluated under natural saline-stress and non-stress conditions usi...

Studies of physiological diversity and its effect on the expression of traits in plants are used in breeding programs as a selective tool with the aim of selecting special attributes for creating a new product. In this study, the correlation coefficients among 17 horticultural traits of 34 genotypes from 11 different places of Semnan province were examined. A significant positive correlation wa...

identification and evaluation of indigenous genotypes of fruit trees are matter of consideration at the first step of the breeding programs. in order to study genetic diversity and to identify promising genotypes, 14 different genotypes of walnut in minoodasht region in golestan province (north of iran) were evaluated. traits such as nut shape, kernel color, ease of removal of kernel halves, ke...
