in order to evaluate phenological and morphological responses of cold tolerant chickpea genotypes to entezary culture in mashhad conditions, 81 cold tolerant chickpea accessions were cultured during growing year 2006-2007 in research farm of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad. the experiment was carried out in lattice design with three replications including 9 blocks per rep...

some cerasus sub-genus wild species that are used as rootstocks in sour and sweet cherry propagation can also be employed in breeding programs. the aim of this study was to clearly evaluate some characteristics of subgenus cerasus genotypes to be used in the future cherries' breeding programs. in order to evaluate some morphological characteristics of the vegetative parts as well as seeds ...

The production of morphologically different seeds or fruits by the same individual plant is known as seed heteromorphism. Such variation is expected to be selected for in disturbance-prone environments to allow germination into inherently variable regeneration niches. However, there are few demonstrations that heteromorphic seed characteristics should be favored by selection or how they may be ...

This study was carried out to determine some morphological and physiological characteristics of common vetch seeds. The in the laboratories Bingöl University, Faculty Agriculture, Biosystem Engineering Field Crops departments 2019-2020. Alt?no?lu-2001, Aneto, Ankaramoru08, Cumhuriyet-99, Orakefe Tamkoç-2000 varieties were used as plant material. Morphological features seeds are length (mm), wid...

In coming decades, increasing temperatures are expected to impact crop yield and seed quality. To develop low input systems, the effects of temperature and sulfur (S) nutrition in oilseed rape, a high S demanding crop, need to be jointly considered. In this study, we investigated the effects of temperatures [High Temperature (HT), 33°C/day, 19°C/night vs. Control Temperature (Ctrl T), 20°C/day,...

the main objective of this study was using of canonical correlation analysis (cca) to find relations between 15 different variables of seed emergence and seedling growth related characteristics of seven important crop that were classified in three groups. the studied groups of variables were included physical characteristics (seed weight, seed length, seed density, water absorption and water co...

Seed weight is a very important and complex trait in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.). The seed weight of rapeseed shows great variation in its natural germplasm resources; however, the morphological, cytological and genetic causes of this variation have remained unclear. In the present study, nine highly pure inbred rapeseed lines with large seed weight variation and different genetic backgrounds ...

Morphological features of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) seeds were measured in five bean cultivars (Akhtar, Ks21189, Ks31169, G11867 and khomein) using digital image analysis. The images of seeds were captured using digital camera (Canon G7). The images were analyzed using image processing toolbox of MATLAB ver. 7.6 software. Morphological features including Area, Perimeter, Major and Min...
