Different winter barley cultivars showed various levels of genetic tolerance when they were exposed to different stress conditions. Therefore, investigations of interaction among genotypes (cultivars) and environments give useful information concerning yield stability and quality in barley (Blum, 1989; Ceccarelli et al., 1998, 2000; Lalić et al., 2007, 2009). Drought conditions frequently give ...

Pathogenicity tests verifying the behavior of Septoria tritici isolates should be considered as a priority in the selection of resistant wheat materials to this pathogen, since the aggressiveness of each isolate can vary significantly, causing problems in the evaluation and selection of resistant genotypes. The objective of this work was to determine whether physiologic specialization exists am...

The expansion of blackberry cropping in subtropical regions is recent, requiring adaptability studies and the development new cultivars, as well suitable plant management. Aiming to study agronomic performance (Rubus spp.) under drastic summer pruning a region, response four cultivars (‘BRS Tupy’, ‘Guarani’, ‘Brazos’ ‘Choctaw’) N K fertilization was evaluated during two growing seasons Jundiaí ...

terminal heat stress in mediterranean climates like ahwaz is reduced wheat yield. in order to study effect of terminal heat stress on yield and yield components of 20 spring bread wheat cultivars, an experiment was conducted in ramin university of agricultural and natural resources, ahwaz in 2007-2008. the experimental design was stripe block design in randomized complete block design with thre...

The expression level of bar, which encodes phosphinothricin acetyltransferase (PAT), was correlated with the inviability of barley hybrids between 20 Golden Promise-derived transgenic lines (Ds-bar lines) and a specialized genetic marker stock, Oregon Wolfe Barley Dominant (OWBD). Each Ds-bar line was homozygous for a modified maize Ds element that encoded bar and that had been delivered via tr...

to cope with cold stress, winter cereals regulate their development through adaptive mechanisms such as vernalization requirement. eight wheat and four barley cultivars were planted to determine the relationship between vernalization fulfilment and expression of cold tolerance under both field and controlled conditions. cultivars were planted at maragheh and karaj agricultural research stations...

Globodera rostochiensis population densities and potato root growth were measured in field plots of one susceptible and two resistant potato cultivars. Root growth and nematode densities were estimated from soil samples taken at three depths between plants within the rows, three depths 22.5 cm from the rows, and at two depths midway between rows (furrows). Four weeks after plant emergence (AE),...

Kenaf (Hibiscus cannabinus L. ), a warm-season annual plant, has shown potential as an alternate source of fiber in the United States. Although preliminary research has indicated feasibility ofkenaf production in Virginia, production details are lacking. Field experiments were conducted during 1995 and 1996 to determine optimal row spacing and fertilizer needs, and to compare available kenaf cu...

in order to compare morphophysiological traits between new and old cultivars of barley (hordeum vulgare l.) a greenhouse experiment was conducted in greenhouse condition in faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad in spring and summer 2011.the type of experiment was a completely randomized design with eight treatments (nosrat , youssof , fagr30 , nick) and four old cultivars inclu...

In this study, the effect of 20 barley cultivars were evaluated on the life table parameters and digestive enzymatic activity of the lesser grain borer, Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae) under laboratory conditions (28 ± 1°C, 60 ± 5% RH, and a photoperiod of 16:8 (L:D) h). Among barley cultivars tested developmental time of R. dominica immature stages was longest on cultivar ...
