Grain yield has a usually the low heritability, consequently to predict this trait it is recommended to use some morphological characters having a high heritability with high correlation with grain yield. To study of relationships between traits and to find out traits having the high influence on grain weight, 36 winter wheat cultivars were planted through a randomized complete block design wit...

Genetic diversity of 13 new cereals, primary tritipyrum lines, five triticale lines and nine Iranian bread wheat varieties was studied under the randomized completely blocks design in terms of agronomic and morphological traits. The highley significant difference was observed between genotypes for all traits except in the filamental leaf length, main leaf length and main leaf width. The highest...

Despite its economic importance, not much information exists on growth and productivity of durum wheat in Iran and Isfahan. In order to evaluate growth, grain yield, and attributes in three durum wheat genotypes, Osta/Gata, Dipper-6, and PI40100, with five planting densities of 200, 275, 350, 425 and 500 seeds/m2, a four-replicate RCBD field study with a spilt-plot layout was carried out in win...

Identification of easily measured physiological traits contributing to yield under specified environmental conditions would benefit genotypic selection for grain sorghum. A field experiment was conducted to determine broad-sense heritability and expected genetic advance, and to examine the relationships of grain yield with 11 physiological traits related to developmental periods, vegetative gro...

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Due to the very high diversity among the genotypes of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa), it has shown a very high adaptability and stability in different climates. Therefore, this experiment was performed to investigate the morphological and genetic diversity of 14 quinoa genotypes and compare them with the control genotype of the region (Titicaca). Ma...

Generation mean analysis (GMA) was used to study the type of gene action and inheritance of grain yield and its components. Generation mean analysis with joint scaling test was performed. This research was conducted at research farm of college of Agriculture at the University of Tehran. The parents and their progenies ( F1, F2, BC1 & BC2) in three mating groups ( Sardari × 7007, Sardari × 7107...
