Incomplete panicle exsertion in almost all the WA-based CMS lines is one of the major impediments in obtaining higher seed yield in hybrid rice breeding programs. Exploitation of Elongated Uppermost Internode (eui) mutants in rice is a viable genetic strategy to solve this problem. Present study was undertaken with an aim of characterizing the elongated uppermost internode mutants in rice germp...

Astyanax douradilho, new species, is described from the rio Tramandaí system, coastal drainage of Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil. The new species is distinguished from its congeners by possessing 37-39 perforated scales along the lateral line, 3-5 maxillary tricuspid teeth, 22-24 branched anal-fin rays, absence of a conspicuous dark stripe from humeral region to caudal peduncle, two vertically...

heat stress is one of the main obstacles for crop production in many areas of the world including southwest of iran. in order to evaluation the effect of heat stress on yield, yield component, and mopho-phenological traits of wheat, an experiment was conducted during 2010-2011 under normal (optimum sowing date) and heat stress (late sowing date) conditions on 11 wheat genotypes including yavaro...

comparison and grouping of 32 grape cultivars and genotypes by using 61 traits including; 5 phenological and vegetative characters, 41 traits related to fruit and amount of resveratrol in 15 parts of plant was done according to grape descriptor and related methods. according to the results some traits such as spikelet weight, berry color, length of peduncle, length of berry tail, weight and len...

To identifying of the high yielding wheat lines with optimal characteristics and to determine the traits which could be used as the selection index for increasing of grain yield, 40 recombinant inbred lines derived from a cross between Norstar and Zagros cultivars were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The measured characters consisted of peduncle weight, ...

Pollination is one of the most decisive practices in cocoa cultivation; therefore, to determine self-compatibility and evaluate morphology flower, it was carried out experimental farm "La Represa", Quevedo, Ecuador. For this purpose, a completely randomized DCA design used, with forty treatments, considering treatments hybrids three repetitions. Tukey's multiple range test (P≤0.05) applied diff...

Eighteen Sarpa salpa and fifteen Dentex gibbous fish collected randomly from the artisanal catch of Benghazi landing site, eastern Libya (32°36' N 20°03' E), during fall winter 2019 were used in present study. Morphogenic features, 21 key morphometric 6 meristic parameters established for each fish. S. was fusiform with a terminal mouth, narrow caudal peduncle bifurcate fin. The body silvery wh...
