At percent, Zn stress tolerance using novel genetic resources is an important mitigation strategy for plant breeding. In this study, thirty-five durum wheat genotypes with different growth habits were evaluated under normal (non-stress) and Zn deficient stress during the 2014-15 cropping season. A total of ten Zn stress tolerance indices including stress tolerance index (STI), relative zinc-def...

the first step in identification of genes which control traits in stress and no stress conditions is localization of chromosomal related to traits. in order to locate the genes controlling drought resistance and screening quantitative indices of drought resistance in wheat, substitution line series of hope into the genetic background of chinese spring (cs) were tested in a randomized complete b...

in order to evaluate of drought tolerance in different canola varieties based on stress evaluation indices in terminal growth duration, an experiment was conducted as split-plot design on randomized complete block design with four replications at experimental field of seed and plant improvement institute, karaj in 2005 and 2006. results using stress susceptibility index (ssi) and tolerance inde...

in order to identify and selection salt tolerant hybrids based on tolerance indices, 17 sugar beet three-way cross hybrids produced by crosses between 17 salinity improved s1 pollinators and a cytoplasmic male sterile (cms) single cross as female, along with three control genotypes were grown in 2007 in rudasht station (isfahan) under saline (12 ds/m and 8 ds/m for water and soil) and non-salin...

drought is the most significant constraint for crop production in arid and semi-arid regions. in order to assess drought tolerance in fifteen rapeseed (brassica napus) cultivars using yield-based drought tolerance indices, two experiments were conducted at the research station of college of agriculture, shiraz university, shiraz, iran during 2009-2010 growing season. the cultivars were arranged...

this study was conducted to determine drought tolerance genotypes with superiority in different stressed environments. to screening quantitative indices of drought tolerance, genotypes of safflower (carthamus tinctorius l.) were tested in a complete randomized block design with three replications under two different water regimes (irrigated and rainfed). significant positive correlation was fou...

in order to study the response of different chickpea genotypes to drought stress and determination of drought resistant genotypes, this experiment was conducted with 18 kabouli type chickpea genotypes including of susceptible check (ilc 3279) and local check (jam). the experiment was performed in a rbc design with three replications under rained and irrigated conditions during 2001-2 cropping s...
