salinity of water and soil in arid and semi arid regions restricts the growth and yield of crops such as sesame. in order to evaluate yield and yield components of 43 lines and ecotypes of sesame (sesamum indicum l.) under saline condition (ec of irrigation water, 5.2 ds m-1) an experiment was carried out in randomize complete block design with three replications at salinity research station of...

Broad bean (Vicia faba L.) is an important crop worldwide. An increase in seed yield would increase both the grain reserve and the profit for farmers. Previous studies on increasing broad bean seed yield have focused mainly on increases at the whole population level. Few studies have focused on the differences in plant type within populations. In this study, we classified broad bean plants into...

in order to determine the relationship between the variables grain yield and biological yield and some important agronomic traits, and to find the direct and indirect effects of important agronomic traits on both grain and biological yields, 364 soybean genotypes (3 planting dates) were studied. the study was based on a design augmented with 3 checks and 6 blocks implemented, in seed and plant ...

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...

the main objective of this study was to understand of genetic association between quantitative and qualitative traits and also to quantify effects of selection for one trait on others in safflower. the study took place in the experimental field of the faculty of agriculture, isfahan university of technology, isfahan, iran, in the 2001 and 2002. to find the best variable for selection to improve...
