Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is a native crop of Asia which is grown worldwide including Iran.In this study,different selection criteria including correlation,regression and path analysis were used to improve yield.The experimental design was split plot with RCBD replicated four times in which three sowing dates (5 January,4 February,and 5 March) were used in main plots and four genotypes;two ...

Simple phenotypic and genotypic correlation coefficients were calculated from 18 genotypes of glory lily (Gloriosa superba L.) during two seasons (2007 and 2008). Experiment was laid out in a randomized block design with three replications at the Medicinal Plants Unit, Botanical Garden, Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India. Positive phenotypic and genotypic correlat...

Grass pea (Lathyrus sativus L.) has a high potential for forage production inboth rangelands and cultivated rainfed areas of Iran. It is well adapted to semi-arid areas ofwest and north of country where annual rainfall is 250–350 mm. To study the seed and DryMatter (DM) yield and agronomic traits, six genotypes of Lathyrus sativus L. and twogenotypes of Lathyrus inconspicuous L. were provided b...

in order to evaluate of yield and yield components of chickpea genotypes, path analysis set to facilitate the selection of high yielding varieties in limited irrigation. research was canducted in 2010-2011 growing season at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad, by using seven drought tolerante genotypes (recommended from a previous research) in a randomized complete...

drought is a major limiting factor for agricultural production in most parts of the world and landraces areimportant genetic resources for crop improvement in dry areas. during the 2007-2008 cropping season, 23 chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) genotypes consisting of 21 kabuli chickpea landraces provided by the national plant gene bank of iran and two known commercial varieties (hashem and arman) ...

in order to study the effect of spraying of abscisic acid on yield and yield components of chickpea (cicer arietinum l.) under rainfed and supplementary irrigation, a field experiment was conducted in 2010 in agricultural research station of ilam university. a split factorial experiment based on a randomized complete block design was conducted. main plots were composed of two levels of irrigati...

the aim of this study was investigation the combined effect of terminal heat of last growth season and competition between plants on phenology, yield and components yield in faba bean. a field experiment with 3 sowing dates (28 november 2011, 15 december 2011 and 7 january 2012) and 4 plant densities (8, 12, 16 and 20 plants m-2) was conducted on faba bean (cv. barkat) at agricultural science r...
