A diallel analysis of eight bread wheat (Ttriticum aestivum L.) cultivars was conducted to determine genetic parameters and the type of genetic control for yield and yield components. The parents and their F1 hybrids were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with 3 replications. General and specific combining ability effects were estimated by the method 2 of the Griffings model I, an...

Among the crops, cereals have been special important and triticale is the most successful man made cereal. In present research, water deficit stress effects on 19 triticale genotypes (X Triticosecale wittmack) and two wheat cultivars (Triticum aestivum), Shiraz (sensitive to water deficit stress) and Kavir (tolerant to water deficit stress) were tested. Therefore, two separate field experiments...

Identifying selection indices is the most important step of a breeding project that aims to improve grain yield. The definition of the selection index is usually done by evaluating the variables in multivariate statistical methods. In the present study, the relationship between grain yield and its components in bread wheat genotypes was determined by multivariate statistical methods. The experi...

In order to study the relationship between morphological and agronomic characteristics like grain yield in barley, and to obtain better knowledge of the effective attributes on barley, an experiment was conducted at the Agricultural Research Station of Ghachsaran in randomized complete block design with two replications on 18 barley lines. Results showed that some characteristics such as days t...

Barleys one of the important four major crops in the world after wheat, corn and rice. About 2.16 million hectare of arable land was cultivated by barely in 2011-2012. In order to investigate heritability and gene action was used barely half-diallel of 7 × 7 in some barley-related yield traits. For this purpose were used in 6 barley genotypes with Sahra variety (the native desert). Tests carrie...
