abstract water deficit is a major problem for the successful production of agricultural products in iran. this research was conducted to evaluate drought tolerance indices and identifying drought tolerant cultivars of canola. twenty eight canola cultivars were sassed implementing complete block designs experiments in normal and drought stress conditions at isfahan university of technology resea...

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...

in order to study drought tolerance indices and to introduce tolerant maize hybrids in drought conditions, an experiment was conducted at the experimental field of seed and plant improvement institute, in 2009. the experiment was carried out using split-plot in a randomized complete block design (crbd) with three replications. the main plots consisted of three levels of irrigation regimes (irri...

drought stress due to water deficit and terminal temperatures is a serious problem in agriculture, and it is one of the most important factors contributing to crop yield loss. to evaluate drought tolerance of barley, 12 advanced barley genotypes were studied in two rainfed and irrigated conditions (in a subtropical region, gachsaran) in 2006-2007 in a rcb design with three replications. results...

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...

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 correlatio...

1 Wheat Research Center, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, Gazipur, Bangladesh ABSTRACT. Twenty five spring wheat genotypes were evaluated for terminal heat stress tolerance in field environments in the Agro Ecological Zone-11 of Bangladesh, during 2009-2010 cropping season. The experiments were conducted at Wheat Research Centre, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute, using rand...

Drought and heat stress have become the most prevailing problems for maize (Zea mays L.) crop production. Therefore, development of tolerance has an essential goal in a breeding programme. Hence, experiment was conducted at Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, to identify tolerant DH lines during spring season, 2016 2017. A total 32 were evaluated under non-stress conditions. Five indices ...
