this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of drought stress on 22 durum wheat genotypes. different characteristics such as grain weight per spike, plant biomass, 100 grain weight, free proline content in leaves, and percentage of cell membrane damage were studied in greenhouse and laboratory conditions. genotypes were sown under normal irrigation and moisture stress conditions. in stress ...

abstract: evaluation of drought tolerance for 20 barley genotypes were conducted under normal irrigation and terminal stress condition by withholding irrigation at the time of 50% flowering. drought effect on grain yield and plant total mass traits was studied and eight of stress indices including stress tolerance index (sti), stress tolerance (tol), stress susceptibility index (ssi), mean prod...

in order to investigate the effects of different irrigation regimes on yield and growth indices of three chickpea cultivars, an experiment was conducted during the 2007 growing season at mashhad (iran). six irrigation regimes including i1; full irrigation, i2; irrigation at branching, i3; irrigation at flowering, i4; irrigation at pod formation, i5; irrigation at seed filling stage and i6; dry ...

in order to evaluate and drought tolerance selection in cowpea genotypes and to identify the best indices for drought tolerance, an experiment was conducted at research field university of tehran in karaj during 2011-2012 growing season. in this study, 31 cowpea genotypes were evaluated in a randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications under normal irrigation (non- stress) an...

to investigate the effects of regulated deficit irrigation (rdi) on the growth, yield and quality of ‘yali’ pears, field experiments for c (fully watered control), ew [early withholding of irrigation, water stress from pullulation to 25 days after flower bloom (dafb)], mw (mid-growth withholding of irrigation, water stress from 25 dafb to 80 dafb), and lw (late withholding of irrigation, water ...

in order to study of the radiation interception and red to far red light ratio variations in sunflower hybrids under drought stress, nine sunflower hybrids in three separate experiments were compared as randomized complete block designs with three replications at the research station of seed and plant improvement institute in karaj in 2006. first experiment (control) was irrigated based on 60 m...

in order to investigate drought stress and plant density the yield, yield components and protein of spotted bean grain (cultivar talash), an experiment was carried out as split plots in randomized complete blocks with three replications in yasouj, in 2012. factors of the test including irrigation in three levels; without stress (control treatment), water stress in vegetative stage (interrupting...
