low temperature (lt) acclimation, phenological development and vernalization requirement are known to influence the expression of frost tolerance (ft) in winter cereals. a phenotypic study was undertaken to determine the interrelationship between developmental stages and ft in hardy winter wheat and rye cultivars acclimated under field condition in the cold and temperate regions of iran. winter...

in order to study of drought tolerance in advanced grain sorghum lines, an experiment was conducted in a split-plot on randomized complete block design with three replications in experimental field of seed and plant improvement institute, karaj, iran during 2009-2010. irrigation regimes were assigned to main plots at three levels including normal irrigation (i1=60mm), moderate stress (i2=120mm)...

in order to evaluate drought tolerance of cultivars and advanced grain sorghum lines, an experiment was conducted as split-plot on randomized complete blocks design with three replications at experimental field of seed and plant improvement institute, karaj in 2009. three levels of irrigation regimes including normal irrigation (ir0=60 mm), moderate stress (ir2=120 mm) and sever stress (ir3=180...

Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] yield formation is severely affected by high temperature stress during reproductive stages. This study pursues to (i) identify the growth stage(s) most sensitive to high temperature stress during reproductive development, (ii) determine threshold temperature and duration of high temperature stress that decreases floret fertility and individual grain weight,...

E. Azadegan , R. Ezzati Department of Mathematics, Islamic Azad University-Karaj Branch, Karaj, Iran |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||Abstract In this paper, we present a new two-parameters family of iterative methods for solving non-linear equations and prove that the order of convergence of these methods is at least four. Per iteration of these new methods require two evaluations of the functio...

A more efficient water use system is needed for agriculture. This is more evidence for rice production with a higher water use for economical production. A large cultivar×water regime interaction exists for grain yield in rice. Therefore, information is required to adopt new rice cultivars with high yield potential under water-saving conditions. The objectives of this study were to analyze the ...
