Winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) produced in Nebraska (NE) is often inconsistent in yield largely due to variability in environmental conditions. Managing production practices may ameliorate this problem of winter wheat in NE. The objective of this study was to identify the combined effects of seeding rate (3), genotype (6), and top-dressed nitrogen (2) on the yield and agronomic characteris...

The remobilization of water soluble carbohydrates (WSC) has an important role for grain yield. This study investigated the accumulation and remobilization of WSC in non-leaf organs (chaff, upper stem, and lower stem) and their contribution to grain yield, under different irrigation levels (rainfed, reduced irrigation, and full irrigation) and seeding rate treatments (450, 600 and 750 plants...

A field experiment was carried out during 2009-11 on a sandy loam soil of IARI, New Delhi on wheat with four levels of irrigation (rainfed, irrigations to replenish 30, 60 and 100% moisture deficit from field capacity) as main plot factors and four levels of nitrogen (0, 30, 60 and 120 kg N/ha) as subplot factors in a split plot design. The soil moisture storage in the profile showed inverse re...

this study was performed to investigate the photosynthetic partitioning pattern of materials to aerial parts of bread wheat in dryland conditions. it was as well to study its relationship with bread wheat resistance and grain yield in drought conditions. seven genotypes including two cultivars (azar2, sardari) and five lines were investigated in a field experiment through a randomized complete ...

In Washington, over fifty percent of the wheat produced under rainfed conditions receives less than 300 mm of annual precipitation. Hence, a winter wheat-summer fallow cropping system has been established to obtain adequate moisture for winter wheat production. Current tilled fallow systems receive significant soil erosion through both wind and water. As a result, no-till chemical fallow system...

to identify important attributes/factors that contribute to grain and biological yields of wheat, 9912 sets of diverse data from field studies were extracted, and supervised attribute-weighting models were employed. results showed that when biological yield was the output, grain yield, nitrogen applied, rainfall, irrigation regime, and organic content were the most important factors/attributes,...
